Indian Army vs PLA (Ladakh/Aksai Chin Config)
Made game config for Indian Army against People’s Liberation Army in Ladakh and/or Aksai Chin. (For Year: 2023 onwards.)
Border Highland is the best map which shows Ladakhi terrain. My next config will that be of Sikkim/Eastern Nepal/Western Bhutan.
Following collection is required to play the config: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3336456970
Some Important Notes:
01. I have used the Desert Camouflage for Chinese vehicle as they are closest to Ladakh Camo. (Gray and Woodland is used as well). Ladakh Camo isn’t actually available on the workshop.
02. Both ZTZ 99A and T90 MS (which is Bhisma but heavier) faces faults in engines at such high altitude due to lack of air and oxygen to their engines but still generally works. Instead Chinese favors the ZTQ-15 Light Tank while Indian have ordered around 59 brand new Zorawar Light Tank to combat the issue.
03. Indian Mil Mi 17v5s and Chinese Z-20 are used to carry troops to border bases. But most of the border itself is so high that both of these helicopters faces faults at those altitudes. Instead Indians uses HAL Cheetak, HAL Cheetah, HAL Dhruv(Cheetah, Cheetak and Dhruv not available on workshop) and Chinooks to recon and transport troops directly to border while the Chinese uses Z-9 Haitun, Z-11 and Z-8G to recon and transport troops directly to border. (Transporting troops directly to Border by helis is done only during emergency by both sides.) Although I have used Mil Mi 17 and Z-20 in the game config for balancing reasons.
04. Indian AH64 won’t work in the altitude of most of India-China Border. Instead HAL Rudra Attack Helicopter and HAL Prachand Light Combat Helicopter is used by Indians but none of the two are available in the workshop. So AH64 is used as a filler and for balancing reasons.
05. Battlefield 2’s MEC, Rebels and EU voice sounds similar to Hindi and other Indian Languages like Bengali, Marathi, Punjabi etc. and are thus supplemented as replacement as no native, Indian languages Voice mutator is available on workshop.
06. Chinese uses a mix of Urban Camouflage and Red Camouflage in the mountains of Indian-China borders. In Ladakh / Aksai-Chin, mostly Urban Camo is used due to good Camouflage with the terrain.
07. On the other hand, Indians only uses the NBDU (post mid-2023) in the mountainous border of India-China Borders. BDU is still used in the forested hilly regions of North East India’s, India-China Border. Although by 2026, those will also get replaced with NBDU.
08. M1161 Growler is used as supplement for the Indian Armed Forces as Polaris or other ATVs like Sherp is not present in workshop.
