The mostly feared weapon by serbian tankdrivers in the long history of OPK is the portable anti-tank-weapon MILAN 2.
We hope you all made it good to the new year. Our first update in 2008 gives you a foretaste to the content of the version 0.25. After the next news we will provide you some fresh pictures out of the game. The work on new content goes on, but of course new motivated helpers are always welcome!
Already in the BFV-Version we had the MILAN (french: Missile d'Infanterie léger antichar) ingame. It was developed in the 70s under german-french cooperation. Since 1984 the lightweightest ground to ground wire controlled weapon of the 2. generation is in the use of the Bundeswehr. The control unit in this version is equipped with a thermal vision. The Gunner only needs to point the crosshairs at the target and the wire guided missile will follow these instructions until it hits the target. In the meantime the MILAN is used by over 40 countries throughout the world. The last important usage was the fight of the Israelis in the fight against the Hisbollah in the Libanon.

In future the MILAN will be used as a stationary defensive postion, vehicle-mounted and especially we want to put them ingame as a portable version in a special kit which is very rare an the battlefield.
Model and skin were made by Terp (BWMod) and Metalchris (BWMod). Our coder starforce is responsible for the installation in our mod.
But now enough data, here are the renders:
The last point for today is that we want to announce a small advance. Tass, our phytoncoder, had had a very good idea to use our maps in many ways. We hope to be able to present you some maps in different vehicle equipment and gamemodes. For example there are supplyline and another new gamemode which is receiving his specialities at the moment. But before we can release this we will have to check this through. But we hope that its ready when we want to release the 0.25 version...
