This mod is an extension of the S&S mod (unofficial, but assisted by the original team). It contains unit patches, ranks, and retextures of uniforms to be accurate to the post-Vietnam Cold War era. The mod currently supports uniforms for the following factions:
US Army [US] (1981-1997)
US Air Force [USAF] (1976-1992)
US Navy [USN] (1981-1992)
Panama Defense Forces [PDF] (1985-1990)
Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces [FAR] (1980-present)
Grenadian People’s Revolutionary Army [PRA] (1983)
The mod is compatible with the Eden ranks system implemented in S&S, and contains variants of the uniforms with various skill badges.
Some assets used in the screenshots are from other mods, such as Jamie’s Basics.
As a mod representing the late Cold War era, I intend on adding desert uniforms and uniforms representative of allied and enemy forces of the United States in future updates. These planned assets include but are not necessarily limited to:
– US Army OG-507 Fatigues
– US Army, Air Force, and Navy desert BDUs, RDF uniforms, and DCUs
– US Navy Deck Crews (OG, BDU, and Utility variants)
– US Navy Ship Caps and Utilities
– US Army/Marine Experimental Patterns (Urban)
– French Uniforms in CCE and Daguet
– Iranian and Iraqi uniforms from the Iran-Iraq War
– Egyptian and Kuwaiti uniforms from the First Persian Gulf War
– ROK Army and Marines uniforms of the 1970s-2000s
– Haitian Army circa 1994
– Nicaraguan factions (?)
There is no estimated completion date for these assets.
This mod is the official Sequel to Phantom Phixers: An S&S Expansion.
The F-4 Phantom II, workhorse fighter for the US Air Force, US Navy, and US Marines during the late Cold War Era has a strong culture among its pilots and maintainers. This culture often involves replacing F’s with "Ph," and therefore, F-4 Mechanics were known as "Phantom Phixers." The original intent of the progenitor mod was to only add Air Force and Navy uniforms, but expanded while in the concept phase.
Phantom Phixers: New Wave is technically compatible with the original Phantom Phixers, but was intended as a standalone mod. For this reason, there are shared assets between both mods, and there will likely be more as both mods are under active development simultaneously. For this reason, I recommend that the mods NOT be loaded together for publicly release scenarios due to possible file conflicts that the mod may create in the future, but it is ultimately your choice and shouldn’t cause too much trouble.
– Simcardo and Goonworks for adding shoulder support to the BDUs and RDF uniforms (for a nominal fee) and making the original mod
– Remi for playtesting, giving me ideas, helping with screenshots, and generally being the best. <3
