US Navy SEALS 1990's [CUP]

Special Forces Faction, CUP version [SFF-C] that adds the US Navy SEAL's in old-school gear to Arma 3.

Historical Info

The U.S. Navy SEALs were established by President John F. Kennedy in 1962 as a small, elite maritime military force to conduct Unconventional Warfare. They carry out the types of clandestine, small-unit, high-impact missions that large forces with high-profile platforms (such as ships, tanks, jets and submarines) cannot. They form the US Navy's premier Special Operations Force (SOF) and are a component in NAVSPECWAR.
Motto- "The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday"

The Faction

The SEALS in this mod are based on the 1989-late 1990/ early 2000's time period, rather than more modern Navy SEALS.
The then-new RIS M4A1 Carbine and older non-RIS M4A1's, form the bulk of the infantry rifle, supplemented by small numbers of MP5's, M16A2's and M14's, with the Mk43, a variant of the M60, providing the SEALS with substantial 7.62 firepower at the fireteam level. Optics range from iron sights, to Aimpoint COMP M2's, to Trijacon red dots, with a small number of magnified optics like Leopold Mk4's or older ACOG's for a small selection of the SEALS. The standard marksman rifle is a scoped M14.

They wear either 6 Colour Desert/ 'Choc-Chip' Camo for their older Desert units and a mix of webbing and vests, with an alternative option for a Forest version of the faction with mixed ERDL and M81 Woodland camo's for more lush terrains. Both have US flag patches on their shoulders for most uniforms. The M1911 and M9 are their primary sidearms. The M72 LAW is their primary AT weapon.

Specialist Elements

A 2 man sniper team armed with a bolt-action M24 SWS and M16A2 are available as options apart from the regular squads.

Supports

Radio communication teams, medical, demolitions and additional machinegun teams as well as some alternative squad and fireteam layouts are available. Support teams usually lack the Autorifleman and instead have a support soldier, such as a medic, a demolitions expert with additional mines and armed with a MP5, or units like Ammo Bearers for the larger squads.

Faction has full Editor, Zeus, and ALiVE support (faction names SEAL90 and SEALD90, for the Woodland and Desert versions of the faction respectively ) Also supports ACE3 Medical system.
