DESCRIPTION
===========

Introduced in the 1960's as the standard 'battlefield taxi' of the British Armed Forces the FV432 series AFV has filled many roles in it's lifetime; APC, Ambulance, Command Post, Mortar Carrier, Mine Layer and more. It is still in use today as the Mk3 'Bulldog'.

INSTALLATION
============

Simply extract the pbo's into your Arma2\Addons or other mod folder(recommended).

Requires: Extended Eventhandlers (CBA).


CLASS NAMES
===========

BLX_FV432_basic (woodland camo version)
BLX_FV432_basicD (desert camo version)
BLX_FV432_medevac (woodland camo version)
BLX_FV432_medevacD (desert camo version)
BLX_FV432_Mortar (for use with artillery computer ONLY)
BLX_FV432_ARTY (for use with artillery module/SOM)
BLX_FV432_MC (multi turret version)

NOTES
=====

BLX_FV432_Mortar is meant for player control and will only work with the Artilllery Computer ('Fire at position' command etc.) and displays the correct weapon designation.

BLX_FV432_ARTY is meant for AI control and works with the Artillery Module/SOM. It is armed with the default 'M252' mortar to allow it to do so. It is found under 'BLX Support' - which seems logical to me.

BLX_FV432_MC is meant to simulate firing small arms from the mortar hatch.

My favourite loadout is this:

create an empty vehicle and name it.
create a section of your favourite British infantry with the player as section leader.
create two subordinate crewmen and group them with the players group.
move the crew and infantry section into the vehicle.
move the player into the 'top cover' gunners position or use: "player moveinturret [name you gave the vehicle,[1]];" (no quotes).

now command the infantry section and apc from the slightly 'dodgy' position of top cover!
