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.

Hey folks.

With mixed feelings we've decided NOT to release a BFV version of our mod.

Instead were gonna move to the new BF2 engine.

The new engine has new features that are very important for this mod, and will enrich the gaming expirience. all of the older stuff from BFV will be featured, with modefication for the new engien, on the new IDFMOD for BF2.

Were already begun to move our art work - Menu, Hud, interface, etc. As soon as we get BF2Editor we'll start moving to other elemnts from BFV to BF2.

We're planing to release our BF2 ver, 0.95, in early July.

Also here's a look to a trip we, yours truly and Mr. Kosta 'KokoReko' Lazarev, decided to pay a visit to the Armored Corps Museum in Latrun, Near Jerusalem. A museum said to be the largest and most comprehensive in Europe and the
Middle-East. And I must say that there's really a lot to see. The museum has around 120 pieces of equipment, some of those not related to the IDF, like the German PZ6. The goal of this trip was to get further information on the pieces of equipment used in the Arab-Israeli conflicts. The total score at the end of the day was 560 pics. So now for your enjoyment, we've decided to post them. Most of the pics are more technical for modeling and skining purposes, so bear with us.
