The Cold War was a state of political and military tension after World War II between powers in the Western Bloc (the United States, its NATO allies and others such as Japan) and powers in the Eastern Bloc (the Soviet Union and its allies in the Warsaw Pact). Historians have not fully agreed on the dates, but 1946-1991 is common. It was "cold" because there was no large-scale fighting directly between the two sides, although there were major regional wars in Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan that the two sides supported. The Cold War split the temporary wartime alliance against Nazi Germany, leaving the USSR and the US as two superpowers with profound economic and political differences: the former being a single-party Marxist-Leninist state and the latter being a capitalist state with free elections. This mod presents the player with many Communist and Capitalist nations in a scenario where war has broken out between the Warsaw Pact and NATO/UN nations.

Exactly.
PK?! It's was be developed in 1961.
Its close enough to the 50s. Lets just let it slide.
That's just a movie mistake, the PK will not be in the mod
Okay, so where's the Blumentarn camouflage uniforms? Also, the PK should be the RPD (MG D in NVA parlance) or the DPM-27.
Whoops. I didn't realize Strichtarn was used from 1965-90. My bad. I didn't even know what time this mod is supposed to take place. :/
No, not Strichtarn but the Blumentarn aka the faceted camo.

They were allowed to use the nazi-era helmets? I thought the use of the soviet design was mandated until the m56 model was developed.
no. the m56 was developed of the german m45 prototype. they never used sowjet designs. and those nazi era helmets were also used by the west germsn bundesgrenzschutz, so cmon, why should so eone nor use dst helmets;)
They are wearing the East German helmet.
Yes, the M56 in reality, Captain Obvious, a copy of the reich german M45^^
