Fight fires from above in the Cougar medium utility helicopter or swerve from the beaten track in the MOOSE pickup truck to take on tier-1 operations with new weapons and equipment, from pistols and rifles to remote-controlled mortars and micro-drones.

Reaction Forces Creator DLC is the ultimate response to any situation on the battlefield.

Features

Key features of the Reaction Forces Creator DLC include:

Cougar Helicopter

The Cougar is a four-blade, twin-engine, medium-sized, utility helicopter that has seen extensive military and civilian use over the years. In its civilian role, it is primarily used for transportation and offshore support, as well as public service missions, such as search and rescue. Some variants even come equipped with an emergency flotation device, which mitigates the risks of ditching at sea.

For military use, the Cougar comes with variable pylon mounts for external weaponry. Some variants are fitted with a 20 mm chin-gun, vastly increasing its striking power and versatility as a gunship.

Take advantage of extensive customization options featuring different loadouts and skins, which allow you to outfit the helicopter for every imaginable mission.

MOOSE Pickup

The MOOSE pickup is a light-duty vehicle with a wide range of configurations, serving military and civilian sectors worldwide. It is often used as a means of short-range transportation, or simply as a dependable weapons platform for special forces and non-state actors.

With a plethora of visual customization options and multiple different modules, tailor your MOOSE to stand out amidst the chaos of battle.

Commando & 120 mm Twin Mortar

The Commando mortar is a lightweight one-man mortar that can be easily assembled in the field. The 120 mm Twin Mortar is a container-sized emplacement that can launch HE, smoke, or laser-guided rounds accurately at incredible distances across the battlefield.

RC-40 mini-UAV

Keep an eye and an ear to the skies - although if you hear one of these drones, it is probably too late! This incredibly compact UAV can be equipped with explosive or smoke charges, which can be detonated remotely or via impact with a target. A scout variant can laser designate targets while maintaining a low profile.

Two Handguns, Two Rifles, and Four Aircraft Weapon Pods

• Mk26 L5 - An American-made, semi-automatic pistol chambered in .50AE popularized through 80s action movies - and yes, a gold plated version is available!
• G19 - Often used by military and police, a full-automatic capable pistol, designed and produced in Austria.
• HADES H6 - Manufactured in Germany, the H6 is a modern, ultra-lightweight and easy-to-handle 5.56 mm bolt rifle.

Additionally, this CDLC features new suppressors, optics, and special 5.56 mm armor-piercing ammunition are available for extra firepower!

• Tratnyr HE/AP x16 missile pod
