Israeli Defense Force: Fight for Independence is a Total Conversion modification for the PC game Battlefield 2 (A.K.A. BF2). What we aim to achieve with this mod is to immerse the player into the historic wars involving Israel, Syria, Egypt, and Jordan, which are the 6-Day War, the War of Attrition, and the Yom Kippur War. The player will be able to play as a common soldier, crewmember, or pilot in these wars. The mod will feature historically accurate equipment such as the famous Russian AK-47, the fearsome SO-4050 bomber, the menacing IS3 and M48 tanks, and much, much more. Also, the maps will recreate actual battles that happened in these wars, to complete a historically-accurate and immersive modification. IDF:FFI is also a member of the acclaimed cooperative gaming studio Black Sand Studios.

Report RSS M-113 APC, M-548 and new video of beta gameplay from the upcoming V0.2

M-113 APC

The M-113, an APC with aluminum armor that was designed to be thick enough to protect against small arms, but light enough to enable air transport. To date over 80,000 M-113s have been produced and used by over 50 countries, making it one of the most popular APCs ever. The IDF began receiving M-113s in the late 1960s to eventually replace the aging M3 half-tracks. The IDF developed several specialized variants of the M-113. Shown here is the basic APC version armed with M2 50cal and a pair of FN MAG.

The beautiful hull model and texture were created by Inceptor57 and General_Bradly.
The wheels and tracks were created by your loyal servant (SPYKER).

M-548

Next, is the M-548, nicknamed "Alfa" by the IDF, a tracked ammunition cargo carrier, based on the M-113. The M-548 has 360 degrees rotating turret mounted with M2 50cal to provide close protection in case of need.

The model and texture were created by Vektorboson and General_Bradly.

Few words

Before finishing, I would like to bring my appreciation to all the IDF:FFI mod team members who work many hours and days to provide you with the best experience possible.
I will help General_Bradly in posting updates, it will allow him to invest more time in mod development, so you will have to forgive me that my updates are not as detailed as his.

And now, I want to share with you a new video of beta gameplay from the upcoming V0.2, available at 1080P 60FPS.

More updates to come soon.

Agreed. For now the mod clearly portrays until 1973 Yom Kippur war only. I also wanted to see Merkava tank on 1982 too.. it's nice idea tho.. Anyways, I don't want them to make too much work on other things and I hope the public release will comes out really soon. The version 0.2 beta are so great, I'm having much fun playing it.
