US Forces Enhanced 2025

Description
Uniforms By: Abb0tt
Pictures By: Bran Flakes

Created after seeing the wonderful uniform skins made by Abb0tt, I wished I could have a faction of those uniforms to play with. So I decided to make this mod! Overall, US Forces Enhanced: 2025 uses Abb0tt's uniform mod to alter the US faction in Arma 3 Aegis to wear alternate equipment that looks more like today's equipment. The mod also modifies vehicle names and group composition to reflect the setting.

This mod overwrites the vanilla US Faction (in Vanilla, NATO) and uses Aegis as a base, hence the dependency.
If you are looking for other mods that fit this mods alternate 2025 setting, I recommend checking out The CSAT Modifcation Project by TheEvanCat.

Features:
Version 1.0: Release
- Changed US Faction loadouts to use Abb0tt’s uniforms and vests.
- Renamed Radio Operator to Rifleman (RTO).
- Renamed Combat LifeSaver to Rifleman (CLS)
- Removed 3GL from Team Leader.
- The US Rifle Squad organization changed to: Squad Leader, Team Leader, x2 Grenadier, x2 Machinegunner, Rifleman (CLS), Rifleman (AT). This now reflects the fireteams, and as such can be split into two relatively equal fireteams.
- The US Weapons Squad organization changed to: Squad Leader, x2 Heavy Gunner, Assistant Autorifleman, Team Leader, x2 Missile Specialist (AT), Assistant Missile Specialist. This now reflects real life weapon squad organization.
- Added Headquarters Element group to the US, composed of: Officer (Combat), Rifleman (RTO), UAV Operator, Grenadier. This simulates the platoon level leadership element.
- Renamed Prowler to ISV Prowler, reflecting the real life Infantry Squad Vehicle program.
- Renamed Hunter to JLTV Hunter, reflecting the real life Joint Light Tactical Vehicle program.
- Renamed Rhino MGS to M8 Rhino, reflecting the real life Mobile Protected Firepower program.

Any plans to update after Reaction Forces?

SF units aren't wearing hearing protection, is it on purpose?

Additionally the renaming of weapons messes with ACE

It seems this mod removes all the units from the US (Pacific) Faction?

And also, all the units have the same mask on (Shemagh with eyepro)

any posibilities to change mx rifles with the m4 from aegis?

Grave just recently uploaded a mod for the Modular Vest that has a myriad of variations that I think would be perfect for this mod, sadly there aren't any alternate pouches for different guns and calibers but I think it'd be cool to have that mod added into this one.

Ever think about doing this mod but with ADDUS?

@scoop It should yes

g'day just wanted to wonder if this will work with the development patch for aegis?

great mod, im not getting any blood when shot on the uniform itself? except for the Crye unifom

Is there any chance of turning this into a standalone faction instead of a replacement? If you replace a faction it usually messes with other factions derived from it, most of my faction mods get broken once i use this mod
