-FULL END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT: Common A3 RKSL Studios EULA[www.rkslstudios.info]+We strive to make all our addons as realistic as the game engine and our own capabilities allowThis means that real world speeds and capabilities are simulated where possible. Compromises have and will be made where necessary but we will not downscale or completely cripple an aircraft, system or weapon to fit into the limited spaces some ArmA maps provide.
  
-POLICY ON RE-UPLOADS FOR STEAM: Any uploads will be met with a DMCA takedown request[www.rkslstudios.info]+  GPMG Iron sights - When I asked an RAF Regiment Gunner (that spent 3 tours on the Foxhound) how easy was it to use the iron sights on the Foxhound he replied, "Nearly impossible, the pivot system doesn't let you in most angles unless you are very tall and can twist yourself in knots." When I asked him how he aimed he replied, "Thats what tracers are for"
 +  - Engine Power - The current engine/physx setup approximates the real world power. ArmA simply cannot simulate the range of the real world gearboxSimply put these are not as fast as the vanilla ArmA MRAPS but they are easier to use at patrol speeds.
