As long as there's soviet tanks I'm very happy.

T55 and T62 please

?? Of course countries are still using them! And many African countries do!

Well, I thought about that too, (and doing the same thing for other vehicles) but as you may have seen, there aren't that many vehicles per PR's maps... So if they are lucky to get 2 T-55 for a map, that already nice

I think this'd be pretty cool for the faction. Like people have said, it's used in real life and on a personal note I quite like the look of it aswell. Plus it would give the faction something different, might be a slightly weaker tank than other factions tanks due to it's age, but it'd be unique.

Thread cleaned. Back to the discussion at hand people. Thank you.

T-55s would be really cool IMO (who doesn't like new toys

), but using the T-62 already in PR might make more sense as a faster/cheaper solution for now, just to get the ARF up and running and playable ingame.

Apart from a reskin, I guess it could be possible to tweak the armament or various gameplay values (movement speed, turning speed, reload speed, whatever else) to simulate somewhat poorer maintenance or less well-trained crews. Not that the T-62 is crazy powerful as it is.

i just wanted to point out, that you would have to ask the devs of the unreleased IDF mod, and not USI, as the first picture of the threat tells you, if so, i suggest asking Vestalis, since there are not many of the IDF devs, that are still active, and he's one i know

With any today's upgrade T-54/55 is not match for modern MBT, only hit&run tactics combined with excellent knowledge of local surroundings and using their advantages could give positive results. Also it shouldn't be goode ol' T-55, it should be at least updated T-55MV with ERA and 9K116 "Bastion" guided munitions.

We could also look through foreign upgrades of T-55, like T-55E "Ramzes II" with 105mm M68 main gun, but I think it would be interesting to see recent upgrades for Type-59 & Type-62 MBTs. Chinese guys not only building new tanks and researching ways to upgrade it, but also trying to keep aged Type-59s/Type-62s in shape. And they fit to ARF conception as faction getting help from PRC.

I would like to hear your suggestions on these models.

Added: No Iraqi T-55 Enigmas

The above tank (first picture) is of a (Nigerian?) peace-keeping force in Somalia, and I think they only had like one or two... on display

[R-DEV]Nosferatu · 09-05-2009, 08:09 AM

This is Ugandan and why do you think so?

FastWinston · 09-05-2009, 08:11 AM

I remember the picture and the caption which said something like what I've just said

Edit: I didn't find the caption, but you are right, Ugandan peace-keepers: http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums...d.php?t=121693
