An Iranian faction could act as a likely OpFor for the Israelis, NATO and even the MEC. They make use of a plethora of foreign technology from various eras, as well as some interesting indigenous designs. Luckily most of this stuff is already in PR, including the AH-1Y/Z SuperCobra, MiG-29, SU-25, T-72, SVD, G3, RPG-7 and BMP-2 (as of 0.95 if I'm not mistaken?). What I propose is the addition of either or both of these: an Islamic Republic of Iran Army (IRIA) faction and an Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) faction. The main work required for both would be this:Iran is a military powerhouse in the Middle East. Counted with paramilitary forces its got the largest armed forces in the world. If any middle eastern nation deserves to get its own faction in PR rather than being part of the MEC it's Iran.
- UVW mapping, texturing and animating of Khaybar Series of Assault rifles
- UVW mapping, texturing and addition of CQ 5.56 parts onto current PR M16A1
- Addition of M203 onto CQ 5.56
- Addition of M203 onto G3 (low priority, HK79 can suffice for now)
- Duplication and reskinning of vehicles
- Reskinning of MEC soldiers with BDU and 3 Colour desert camo
- HUD/Localisation work
I've made some changes and additions to Koroush47's design plan, considering he hasn't been on in a few months, I'd like to take charge of the push
Design plan is here
Basically what I'd like to do right now is have a look at interest and see what people think of the idea right now. Considering two major assets that will define the faction are already well into production (by myself), I'd say progress has been made. If I were to finish the faction though, I would need people who are adept at skinning and someone who is familiar with the inner-workings of PR to get this thing really going. That's all for today, apologies to the moderators if this is one too many Iranian faction proposals.
Cheers,
Nick
