Needs a good update for gear and equipment now being used that changed over the last few years!

does this mod have any tanks jets or anything like that?

This is why I always will be proud to be Canadian. Greetings to all my fellow Canadians.

Canadian JTF-2 Updated with MP signing.

I know, this is not meant to be portraying modern CANSOF, but older soldiers during the transitional period, purely for gear variety reasons.

Can you make a CADPAT Arid? Just for those who like desert fighting?
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 1 Jan, 2018 @ 1:32pm 
It's a small town in the central United States covered in snow, taken from Arma 2 I think. I can't remember the name off the top of my head.

What land / map is in your snowy / frost bush screenshot?

Best CADPAT in an Arma 3 mod, bar none. Perfect for operations on Tanoa.

Updated workshop page with new images and some text corrections.

Alright, well your doing gods work for canadians like me who have like 2 mods out there in the arma modding community. I hope, and would love to see you update them in the future, best of luck my man.
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 16 Aug, 2017 @ 4:50pm 
Yeah, the Multicam units have nice gloves, as they are using custom uniforms instead of re-textures, but the base game NATO gloves are based on Oakleys (just not branded) as well, just not as well-made as modded ones. The CADPAT uniforms themselves may be getting updated to have the same custom uniforms in the future though, but I can't give a date or confirm that or anything.
PeepeePounder 16 Aug, 2017 @ 3:53pm 
Good mod, Canada dosent get enough mods these days. A quick suggestion? If your able you should try to find a way to have the uniforms use oakley gloves opposed to the shitty arma 3 vanilla gloves, but if not thats okay. Thanks for the reskin.
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 18 Jul, 2017 @ 9:41pm 
No, I'll just swap it to a hat in the next update, it's fine. I also plan to add a new team of units, based on some pics I have of CANSOF guys from Operation Flintlock 2016/2017, as well as eariler in 2016, some training exercises.
Dax 18 Jul, 2017 @ 9:29pm 
no worries..didn't mean to come off as an ass..it's just a nit picky thing when details are left out..that's my fault though, I should just keep my mouth shut and enjoy the fact someone is making a Canadian Mod..so thank you :)
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 18 Jul, 2017 @ 9:28pm 
I mean, if it's a problem I can swap it for a hat of some kind in the next update?
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 18 Jul, 2017 @ 9:22pm 
Yeah, it's just I don't have any Tan berets to use, nothing against you. I might go looking for some but I didn't consider it a major issue.
Dax 18 Jul, 2017 @ 9:20pm 
I see you deleted my Tan beret comment..I was just trying to help, I know some stuff about Cansof

No, you cannot place bear traps. :)
TroubleAlwaysInbound 18 Jul, 2017 @ 7:19pm 
but can we place welcome mats?
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 17 Jul, 2017 @ 6:25pm 
Not sure yet.
Frosty 17 Jul, 2017 @ 6:21pm 
is there going to be a RHS version of this mod?
juicyjust 13 Jul, 2017 @ 5:57pm 
THANK YOU! This is exactly what I was looking for. Amazing job, the units and group are awsome.
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 13 Jul, 2017 @ 4:37pm 
@GabrielD - You are correct. If they were to follow the current European trend they would likely pick up some HK416's or another similar rifle, or if they were to follow their American neighbours move towards more compact and lighter weight rifles like the Daniel Defence Mk18's.

This faction is 'set' in around the 2010-2017 era, based on some photographs and a contact 'cough' of mine who has worked with JTF-2 in late 2016. It is not set in 2035.
GabD 13 Jul, 2017 @ 12:38pm 
By 2035 in armaverse, JTF2 would have probably switched to something other than C7/C8/C9's. SPAR-16 series or MX series rifles in cadpat/olive would suit just as well, if not better, than old USA rifles.
N/A 12 Jul, 2017 @ 9:26am 
Who?
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 11 Jul, 2017 @ 5:36pm 
Before anyone asks about having actual branded C7/ C8 / C9's in the mod, there is no longer any Canadian Armed forces mod around that has them that is not broken (CAF mod from 2013 no longer works in a stable form) so it's not currently possible.

I compromised in the mod by using OD Green furniture M4A1's and SAW/Minimi's.
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 11 Jul, 2017 @ 12:19am 
No problem :)
DontKillMePlz 11 Jul, 2017 @ 12:19am 
thanks! thats totally the missing bit of info it makes sense now lol
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 10 Jul, 2017 @ 7:40pm 
FSSF was a predecessor, yes, but it dates all the way back to WW2. After WW2 the unit was disbanded, and the RCMP special units took up the same role, but as part of the police/civilian forces they were limited in some factors, so the force was moved and re-structured under Canada's Special Operations Regiment. JTF-2 in particular was formed right after the RCMP Special Unit's disbandment, but it has drawn from military units for members rather than Police.
DontKillMePlz 10 Jul, 2017 @ 7:18pm 
i keep seeing the RCMP thing everywhere lately so im just curious tbh
DontKillMePlz 10 Jul, 2017 @ 7:16pm 
was the jtf not created with the back ground of the fssf (devils brigade) ?
MoonCrawlerVG 10 Jul, 2017 @ 4:34pm 
looks amazing cant wait to try it out :steamhappy:
Miles Away 7 Jul, 2017 @ 10:03pm 
IIRC, it's a modding resource with almost everything open in it.

Nonetheless, I'm thankful for the addition of JTF2. Just hope the AI don't hit me from all the way across the map!
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 7 Jul, 2017 @ 9:50pm 
No I have not- I knew it existed but don't know much about it- I would need to get the creators permission and such beforehand as well.
Miles Away 7 Jul, 2017 @ 9:49pm 
Jarrad, not asking you to actually do this, but have you thought of using the CRBN Mod's NATO full body suits as a base for the CRBN team?
jarrad96 [4SFG]  [author] 7 Jul, 2017 @ 4:25am 
First Release.
