Arma 3 Faction Overhauls

Description
This mod is a total replacement of the INDEP side Freedom and Independence Army units, bringing them more in line with modern day equipment, weapons and uniforms.
It works in the official Arma 3 Campaign and custom scenarios that use the INDEP FIA faction will be using the new faction as well.

Historical Info-

The FIA (Freedom and Independence Army) draws it's origins and name from the 1985 anti-Soviet resistance movement of the same name that fought in the Malden and Everon conflicts.
The modern FIA was established out of civilians and Altis Armed Forces defectors following a coup d'etat in the capital city of Kavala, causing a civil war between the FIA and AAF to break out. These pro-government forces remained allied with the AAF government, and have been equipped by them.

The Faction-

The INDEP FIA are armed with the M16A2 and M4 carbines as primary weapons, with the more modern M16A4 used in some roles. The standard support weapons are the M249 SAW, M14, M24 and M72 LAW and the fighters wear a mix of flat OD Green and M81 woodland camo mixed in with civilian and guerrilla clothing.

Because of their AAF backing, they have limited access to equipment such as body armour, helmets and night vision, but the majority of the soldiers wear ALICE chest rigs. The MAAWS is also used as a heavy AT asset within some fireteams to suppliment the single-shot LAW. Their main sidearm is the M1911.

Supports-

The FIA is supported primarily by re-purposed and camouflaged civilian vehicles, including technicals with a range of armaments and trucks.

Faction has full Editor, Zeus, MCC, TFAR and ALiVE support (faction name IND_G_F ) Also supports ACE3 Medical system.
It totally replaces the INDEP FIA faction in editor, Zeus, ALiVE and all scenarios played when the mod is enabled.

Autorifles cant use any of the spare belts in their inventory for M249. I think this is affecting every unit using an M249 cause another mod i've used using RHS has the same issue, but official RHS units don't seem to be fine and are able to reload.

INDEP FIA Overhauled [RHS] updated with MP signing, compatibility fixes.

There is a Problem with the Offroad you used to replace the vanilla one. In the mission "Supply Network" (The first one the player is issued command) only the passenger seat of the car can be mounted which means 3 guys have no room to sit in the vehicle.

I observed a similar problem in the NATO-RHS overhaul where during the first mission a MH-6 comes to pick up the player, by default this Heli will have 3 persons on board and will take an additional 2 (including the player) at that particular base - but since the gunner spots can't be taken it is impossible to progress this stage.

I have a different version for replacing OPFOR or BLUFOR FIA, it's linked in the collection above- this one is for replacing INDEP / Green FIA.

Does this work with OPFOR FIA?

It totally replaces the INDEP FIA faction in editor, Zeus, ALiVE and all scenarios played when the mod is enabled. As long as the mission uses GREEN team FIA, they are replaced. I have versions for BLU and RED FIA as well.

Yeah, it was quick because I already had the code sitting on my desktop, I've been doing a lot of faction work recently and lost track of this one not being actually published.
