Realistic Loadouts - CptTobi - 01-11-2018
Hey MissionMakers!
While I searched for a realistic soldiers loadout recap, I found this page:
Modern Warrior’s Combat Load
Maybe this helps?
Do you know where to find other recaps of different nations?
Thx and let´s get into CoopMissionAction right now!

I am not sure that these values are really applicable for Arma. As an example, 180 rounds of 5.56 is six mags; for Arma this is on the low side.
Also note where it says "Average mission time: 48-72 hours". I don't think we want to go there
Bottom line is, Arma is much more compressed than any real life scenario, so normal rules can only apply to a certain degree.
RE: Realistic Loadouts - CptTobi - 01-12-2018
Yeah, I fully understand you Alwarren, I just wanted to give some impression or ideas.
But anyway, is there any known side or pdf available to check other loadouts from different armed forces?
RE: Realistic Loadouts - Alwarren - 01-12-2018
Well one thing I can say from the PDF is that there is absolutely no reason to not have at least a CCO or ACOG mounted on your weapon - it seems to be the standard equipment for everybody. Same goes for the NVG's

Definitely an interesting read. Thanks Tobi!

Apart from the missing scopes and NVGs I will never understand ARMAs fixation on soft headgear.
Like helmets have been a thing for 100 years now.
