Arma 3 Realistic Names [UPDATED (WS & RF)]

If you own the Expeditionary Forces CDLC, Western Sahara CDLC and/or Reaction Forces CDLC, compatibility configs will be auto-loaded and my real name changes will take into effect.
Github Repo for the full changelog and un-binarized files can be found here:

This project aims to provide a small mod that changes the names of Weapons, Vehicles and Gear in Arma 3 to their real life names. Since this is a feature of ACE3 already, this mod makes use of it by simply stripping it out and distributing it standalone.

This mod requires Arma 3 and the latest version of CBA A3.

I am not the original author of this mod (blackfisch is). However, the Original RealisticNames mod by blackfisch is no longer being updated as the repository has been archived by the owner on Jul 3, 2022 and there still isn't an automated build system.

So I've taken the reins where all future builds and additions to the mod will be done by me.

This project basically is a Standalone of the realisticnames module from ACE3.
Special Thanks to all ACE3 Contributors who made this project possible in the first place.
