Default French OOB Work in Progres

Hi !

I have recently discovered the window version of the Stell Panther series. So i have download it and rush the oob editor to have a look on the french unit and i have found a lot off minor/major errors for units, weapons and formations.

For example the Mirage 2000 have no gun (where is the DEFA canon !), RT-F1 mortar excessive range, the FR-F2 is not a 12.7 mm sniper rifle but the classique 7.62mmm (correct name are PGM or HECATE II for the .50 cal sniper rifle), AMX 50 heavy tank never used ...

So i have start some modification and certainly informs the community about it

Default Mirage 2000

Unit 902 is the Mirage 2000-5 version wich has the 2 DEFA 30 mm internal guns. The 2000C has them too but is not in the OOB. I suppose it's considered an air to air version and anyway you can't put all the version with all the possible loadouts for obvious reasons. The 2000D and N don't have any internal gun but could be equiped with gun pods.

The nightmare is close to the end but i have a little problem with some "exotic" stuff like :

FELIN (almost 30/35 k already fielded)
PAPOP (kind of french OICW with 35 mm GL)
http://le.cos.free.fr/felin.htm
EBRC (replacement for the AMX10RC)
PVP (replacement for VBL, P4)
Leclerc, VBL and VAB AZUR (Urban warfare kits)

I was surprised by this. I didn't suspect that some famas-felin were already fielded, but here is some evidence.

The first soldier is wearing an US helmet and a famas that looks like a felin one.

Totally off-topic - are the French Army allowed to grow beards?

No, not usually. But this soldier is probably from 1st or 3rd RPIMa
(1st/3rd Marines Paratrooper Regiment), which are considered SOC (Special Operation Capable) and are in the French Army quite allowed to do whatever they want. Including the beard, use of foreign weapons (M4, G36...) and of foreign equipment.
Other elite regiment like the REP (Foreign Legion Paratroops) and RIMa (Marines) don't have, as far as I know such allowance.
