A fan for Real life Military equipment ? then this is your mod ! it is a Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge mod that basically imports a lot of RL military hardware from the cold war era in the 60's to the late 2000's while maintaining a lot RA2 aspects like prism, tesla tech and etc. Also, It expands on the original RA2 armor system thanks to ARES in which it creates more roles to create numerous units effectively expanding the complexity of handling an army making it necessary to use mixed arms to counter the various unit types. Also, do note that each country will have some twists in their military equipment that will be more or less similar to their respective RL counterparts. In short: it is a relative to reality fun mod but "a fun mod" is conservative statement.
As I said before, this mod will feature ace combats elite fighter squadrons as a direct fan service for all. Their statues are a better than each sides standard inventory and any side can access them provided they capture a tech airport.
Now for the reference. This is the Grabacr "8492nd" squadron that appeared in Ace Combat 5.
