Placebo has informed us about the release of ArmA2 : Operation Arrowhead Demo on official site ArmA2.com .
Bohemia Interactive is pleased to announce the release of the hotly anticipated demo for Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead, a massive standalone expansion pack to the critically acclaimed military simulator, Arma 2.
This 3GB demo thrusts you straight into the unique gameplay featured in the full version of Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead; it showcases the realistic sandbox environment, offers multiplayer gameplay, and gives you a peek at the vast array of vehicles, weapons, units at your disposal. The demo offers a massive amount of highly detailed content, giving you a sharp flavour of the epic new environment (modelled on real-world data), a full taste of the mission editor, and a real appetite to experience the most authentic mil-sim available: war without the training wheels.
Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead's demo includes:
* Singleplayer mission "Coltan Blues" from the main campaign * Singleplayer scenarios "Benchmark" and "Little Bird" * 3 Boot Camp scenarios (Basic, Driving and Helicopter tutorials) * Multiplayer missions "Hike In The Hills" and "One Shot One Kill" * multiplayer template "Team Deathmatch" * Mission Editor with save/load option
Bohemia Interactive CEO, Marek Spanel, described the demo as tantamount to a game in its own right: "This demo is huge. Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead is not a simple expansion - it's a massive extension of a living world with a passionate fan community. Our goal is to offer the chance to experience as much of the new and unique features as possible. To be honest, we believe that there is more fun to be had in this demo than in some full games; the editor alone enables a user to create hours of custom content."
Set in the new, visually attractive environment of rugged Central Asia, Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead offers a realistic combat simulation experience in a modern day setting with unprecedented freedom of movement, actions and tactics. Players have the opportunity to enlist into various roles within the US Army, from basic infantryman through to special operative, to pilots and tank crew equipped with hi-end military equipment, such as thermal imaging and directly controlled UAVs, in this new instalment in the award winning line of military simulators for PC from Bohemia Interactive.

BD Hellfire is an enhancement that provides an alternative (hopefully more realistic) system for engaging targets with the AGM-114 Hellfire Air to Ground Missile system. The system forces players to use laser designation to guide Hellfires, without interfering with AI controlled aircraft's ability to engage targets with Hellfires.
Currently, the system will be utilized on the AH-64, AH-1, and MQ-9 aircraft in game.
The system allows you to use your own laser or lock on to other lasers to guide your missiles. In addition, it allows you to toggle between direct and top attack modes. In top attack, the missile will climb before decending on the target from above. See the readme for more info.
McNools have released a [OA]M4A3 with Acog and IR-laser by Max255[PL] and McNools on the BI Forums.
Max255[PL] and I discovered some unused M4 models hidden within the Weapons_E.pbo, two of them seems to crash the game, but one of them, the ACOG-version worked well thanks to config efforts done by Max255[PL] who got it working properly with both the ACOG-sight and the IR-laser.
I retextured the weapon to better suit the other camo M4's in the game, aswell as the acog sight, (the weapon itself had a much darker brown desert-camo), I also retextured the weapons icon to suit this new texture, and added a ammo-box in the editor (M4A3 Acog box) so that people can try it out quickly and easily.
It hasn't been tested much, so there might be some unknown issues as this point.
