E22 - Russian Armed Forces

Description
Recommended: E22: Essentials.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2868530206

This mod has been in development since 2019 and was delayed due to the Russian Invasion of Ukraine. Please do not take this mods release as an indication of support for the Russian Federation's actions within Ukraine. This depiction is fully fictional and is set in a world where the Russian Federation collapsed entirely and reformed with western help.

Slava Ukraini

E22: Russian Armed Forces was developed to bring an Arma 3 quality Russian Armed Forces to the game, this includes vehicles, weapons, equipment and QOL changes that aim to updated older elements of the Arma 3 sandbox. with a focus on the quality in all areas, such as new weapon materials to make them less shiny, cleaner newer looking weapons, and a functional camouflage.

You will find that the smallest details have been worked on to make this faction feel really unique. These include making sure their inventories are organised, they have their own versions of gear such as NVGs and UAV terminals, and also face wear variants to make them stand out, such as the faction specific tactical glasses, and new balaclavas. I recommend diving into the menus and details, having fun with it is the most important thing!

A full list of items/changes can be found in the E22 dev discord linked below.

@Grave, Vlad is right. The Chasis is completely missing and the body of the MRL just floats in the air.

@Vlad seems fine to me
Grave  [author] Feb 9 @ 12:40pm 
@Vlad will look into it

@Mr. Squirrel™ for different vehicles you will have to look elsewhere, all current vehicles are of Russian origin in design and it would cost a massive amount of time to replace vehicles which work fine in their roles. as for the NVGs its E22 design for AI to have them within their inventory by standard, with it being up to mission makers to place them on the NVG slot, as the majority of the time they will be seen at daytime.

Also this mod is not really in active development as working on a Russian forces mod feels pretty draining considering whats going on in the world right now.

@Mr. Squirrel™ the AI have NVGs in their uniforms, and we are quite limited on where we can get vehicles from without dependencies and still fitting the vanilla style.Especially seeing as most CSAT vehicles are based on Russian designs, both in 2035 lore and real vehicles. These can be seen in things like the Kajmin (Mi-28 + Mi-24), the Angara (T-14), the Ifrit (Karatel), the Tempest (Typhoon), the Zamak (KamAZ), the Orca (Ka-60), the Shikra (Su-57 + Su-35), and the Neophron (Yak-130) to name a few.

this mod has great potential, but i suggest you remove the CSAT vehicles and replace them with more unique russian vehicles. For the AI loadouts, please add NVGs to the AI. Otherwise good work. I see a lot of potential in this mod.
