Faction Progress Update
Some time has passed since the last progress update, and now we're back with some more assets to showcase. During this time we have had some major progress in vehicles department and only a few of planned vehicles are left to be done. We have also had progress in weapons department, finally implementing a weapon introduced years ago into the game, alongside other fun stuff. It is important to note that these two factions are still works in progress and there is always possibility of change in plans, so some of the showcased assets might not be included in the final factions and some more assets that are not shown here might be added to the arsenal.
I once again invite everyone to join the Project Reality Community Factions Discord servers, there you can see the development of this faction, alongside other factions and engage in related discussions:

And we again thank all the people who have aided us in this path so far, especially all the wonderfully talented
Project Reality Team members.
Vehicles
Neynava Trucks
Neynava trucks will be the backbones of the Iranian Army and Iranian Marine Command factions, acting as the transportation and logistics trucks. The model was done by me, with the fantastic texture work of [R-COM]M.MCC, with special thanks to [R-DEV]Tim270 for all the feedbacks he gave us.
Tosan-30 and Tosan-90 IFVs
An upgrade on the old FV101 Scorpions of the Iranian Army, Tosan IFVs utilize 2A42 30mm and EC-90 90mm guns to combat enemy personnel and vehicles alike. The in-game Scorpion model was modified by me in accordance to the Iranian upgrade package, and the texture was done by me and [R-COM]M.MCC.
Bell 214A Isfahan variants
We already introduced the base transport version of this helicopter in the last update post, but now we got three more variants for it! From left to right, the supply variant (carrying more supplies but no passengers), the MedEvac variant (with the same function as Vietnam Huey MedEvacs) and the CAS variant (a light alternative to AH-1J Cobra).
F-4E Phantom II Fighter-Bomber
After months of work, the trusty, good old Phantoms of IRIAF have been finally added to the faction. Carrying a wide range of armaments, varying from Mk.82 dumb bombs to AGM-65 Maverick missiles to AIM-9J Sidewinder air-to-air missiles, these jets will prove to be worthy candidates for ruling the skies in Project Reality. Model made by me, with the magnificent texture work of the talented [R-COM]M.MCC. I have to once again show my appreciation to [R-DEV]Tim270 for patiently reviewing the model and pointing out the mistakes and potential improvements.
F-5E Tiger II Light Fighter
The F-5E Tiger II is a lightweight, supersonic fighter jet developed by Northrop in the 1970s, renowned for its agility and ease of maintenance, serving in the IRIAF since then in air defense, pilot training, and as the foundation for indigenous aircraft like the Saeqeh and Kowsar. This asset was taken from the AIX mod for BF2, with their permission, retextured by [R-COM]M.MCC.
F-14A Tomcat Air Superiority Fighter
Last but not least, we have finally finished the coding of F-14A, with the help of [R-DEV]rPoXoTauJIo. Because of the game limitations it unfortunately won't be using the iconic AIM-54A Phoenix, but with its exceptional maneuverability it'll prove itself a formidable opponent for the modern jets in Project Reality.
Iranian copies of the Russian AKM and the Chinese Type-56 Assault Rifles, these guns will be the alternative main weapons of Iranian Marines.
DIO RPG-7 Rocket Launcher w/ OG7v
Originally made by Rhino about a decade ago but it unfortunately never made its way into any of the factions' arsenals. Considering the fact that the Iranian Army doesn't use grenade launchers in a large scale, we decided to choose this warhead as an alternative.
M19 Anti-Tank Mine
Made by one of the Project Reality Team members, with the help of [R-DEV]Arab we recoded and implemented this mine into the faction.
