May I suggest these for references:

FN P90 FN P90 by Pixagogo
good work so far I like the camo on the plane

It have to be made! Venezual and Brazil are both fightings against the Farc. But you could make maps againt each others as well! The only problem is to find someone willing to make the map
Both factions have great potential!

Yeah I just need a team to assemble. I am trying to get people who want to mod. Please PM me if interested.

Also We have something in the works I think

[M4sherman]

Anyone got a good pick of a VZ MI-18

So a jungle green mixed with a olive drab and no markings....Alright will start tommorow with the panel lines

Didn't Venezuela buy a large number of T-72 tanks recently (150) when Dmitri Medvedev visited and Venezuela acknowledged South Ossetia as an independent country?

And Brazil bought 250 Leopards 1a5 from Belgium

I could try at a bit of modeling for you. Im not great with much, hardly anything to be completely honest but ill give anything you give me a go. As long as it doesn't include bloody sandbags, I have hell with those things.

Send me a PM with a quick model and ill have a little go for you.

P.S Dont send something insanely impossible

Venezuela is actually acused of financing and supplying the FARC and also letting them transit freely on venezuelan territory.

In the latest scandal here, some AT-4 from Venezuela were aprehended with FARC.

Why venezulan soldiers dont have a knife?... in pr even insurgents have knives.

Also instead of AK103 with GP25 grenade launche you can use FNFAL with M203.

UZIs are more common i think, and should replace crewman and engineer weapons.

also, remove t72 and bmp3 from design plan, add Cadillac Gage V100, replace Wrangler with Tiuna

I don't know about the Uzi (I usually don't like SMGs in PR, their CQB firepower promote unrealistic, but funny, tactics for Crewmen ^^), but I agree with the FAL/M203 combo, I'm for a AK103/FAL split within Venezuelan kit layout (though it could create some minor confusion in hypothetical Brazil/Venezuela battles since they both use the FAL).

About the BMP-3, I think it'd be a great asset : it will basically be the most powerful armor vehicle on the continent, leaving interesting assymetrical combat situations against Venezuela's opponents. Besides, who don't love this Russian beast ?

Thanks alot Wilson, I would be more than happy to do so as soon as we get our FN FAL Model finished. Making the attachment would be something much more better than using what PR Has, and making something new

I agree, a SMG in PR doesn't seem to proper unless the FARC are using it or its CQB. IMO it's not proper for PR Gameplay on a 4KM Map.

My main issue is to balance out the AK-103 to FAL Ratio for what kit gets what, I''ll make a list and post up. see what the community thinks.

I'd say keep the AK-103 as the default venezuelan rifle. Venezuela recently bought 100k or so of those rifles and they have arround 36k active personel on the army, 26k on the navy and 7k on the air force.

More than enough rifles to cover all 3 forces.

It's a M203 short model, not PR one.
We(French Forces mod) have already done a M203 short for the FAMAS, but it will not be used by us since we will have rifle grenades for the grenadier kit.
Model and texture are done (you will certainly have to tweak the texture a bit but the model is here)

[WilsonPL]

ahh cmon... theres no point in new faction when all new stuff are placeholders :>

instead of land vehicles first maps with venezuela could use some air assets, mi18 with rocket pods for example. Just ea model 'hack' .
And about fal -> Venezuela bought ak103s, but what about version with gp25 ? any pics of them using it?

We can still sea lot of pictures with fnfals, im sure some soldiers still prefer fal:>


[and cadillac gage v100 is a must, you can have 3 different versions of it 100mm 20mm 7.62] :>

[Wilkinson]

The FN FAL has been the VAF's main weapon until recently where they just bought AK-103s. Using a variation of weapons makes this faction interesting. 162 there is nothing wrong with us using the FAL w/ Grenade Launcher IMO.

All Equipment in the Design Plan is the most recent, and newest technology. Don't worry guys I did a good 3 weeks of research while writing this thing

As for the Cadillac Gage, it is a Low Priority Vehicle as the Warfare of the faction will find virtually no need for those kinds of vehicles. You will just have to wait and see
