I'd pay a killing on customs though since I am not based in the US

2019-09-09 23:14:25 UTC  

True. I know he ships patches internationally all the time so those can't be too bad cost-wise

2019-09-09 23:14:27 UTC  

Buffel seen better days...

Captured during Op Protea. Checking out a soviet helm?

2019-09-09 23:16:55 UTC  

Wonder whether this is actual combat or an exercise.

Is it just me or is that a scope on a vickers? Description of this pic says its in a guntower at kutima mulilo

32Bn with modified Unimogs... interesting.

2019-09-09 23:31:37 UTC  

Rhodies had the same setup

These okes must have had some lekker biltong for awhile after.

The scope on the vickers is real it was operated like that to have accurate fire out to 1km away which was quite easily achieved by the vickers and as for the picture where you ask about training or real combat it is a training exercise, photos or cameras for that matter werent allowed in the operational area but exercises were photographed

2019-09-10 00:02:25 UTC  

Those are 106mm recoilless rifles on the mogs

2019-09-10 00:07:51 UTC  

Hmm im thinking the picture of the combat area might also be a demonstration in a township maybe ? Or it could be an aftermath of a battle that occured ? Only thing throwing me off is the fact that all the ratels are so closely parked together

2019-09-10 00:08:58 UTC  

This Ratel upgrade looks fokken mint

2019-09-10 00:09:17 UTC  

It looks more like theyre setting up a temp base or getting ready to go out on a operation

2019-09-10 00:09:41 UTC  

Ja doesn't look like a battefield to me

2019-09-10 00:10:10 UTC  

I wonder if theyre still using oerlikon 20mm's on it or if they switched to the bushmaster 25mm

2019-09-10 00:10:40 UTC  

🅱 oerlikon 20mm

2019-09-10 00:10:40 UTC  

I think still 20mms

2019-09-10 00:10:44 UTC  

It looks like a 20mm

2019-09-10 00:10:49 UTC  

Ratel 20 after all

2019-09-10 00:11:01 UTC  

Its probably still the oerlikons then

2019-09-10 00:11:49 UTC  

It has thicker armour

2019-09-10 00:12:47 UTC  

Cool little bit of info about a friend of my dads, his father actually helped to translate the swedish manual for the oerlikon into afrikaans and he helped construct the first training guide for it, he also worked with armscor/denel on optimising the gun for south african use

2019-09-10 00:13:40 UTC  

Must be loaded then? Those okes usually are

2019-09-10 00:13:57 UTC  

Not at all really

2019-09-10 00:14:49 UTC  

This was wayy back in the 60s or 70s and he still just got regular army pay

2019-09-12 22:44:22 UTC  

9 days and my working season is over! Back to modeling for Op Savannah soon lads!

2019-09-12 22:45:21 UTC  

It'll be glorious! Between this and the Armscor mod I'm so hyped!

2019-09-12 22:47:43 UTC  

Psst Rhodesian Bush War is also being planned on but I'm very quiet about that as my primary focus is on the Border War. Cool thing is many assets can be reused such as the Alouette, Eland, R1 and more.

2019-09-12 22:49:32 UTC  

Long as you don't bite off more than you can chew, I'll be happy with anything related to either war. Shame they're so forgotten in the west.

2019-09-12 22:50:16 UTC  

It's far easier to make content for SQUAD than it is for ARMA. So don't worry about that

2019-09-12 22:50:34 UTC  

Really? Why's that?

2019-09-12 22:50:58 UTC  

UE4 is very userfriendly

2019-09-12 22:52:21 UTC  

Is ArmA running on an old-ass engine, or was that a different game I'm thinking of?

2019-09-12 22:53:25 UTC  

ARMA 3's modding tools are pretty difficult to learn and use in comparison to UE4. Far more tutorials out there for the latter too

2019-09-12 22:54:47 UTC  

And yes ARMA 3's engine is built off of an engine developed in the late 90's. First game that used that engine was Operation Flashpoint Cold War Crisis

2019-09-12 22:54:56 UTC  

Released in 2001

2019-09-12 22:57:15 UTC  

I have yet to find a picture of an R1 with a wooden handguard. Which leads me to believe there weren't any?
