Hopefully Eugen realises the mistake they made not adding the SADF in the near future and fix that. I am working on a SWAPO/Angola deck to use with this one. Quantities of units aren't great, however I feel that accurately depicts South Africa strategy to warfare, menauverability and superior firepower and training over sheer numbers. Some units aren't accurate of equipment used by the South African Military, namely the infantry transports, which I felt authenticity regarding the actual infantry was more important than the transports. I used a combination of British, ANZAC, French and Dutch units.

SADF weaponry features imported or locally built R1 and R4 rifles, SS-77 and Mini-SS MG, LRAC and APILAS LAW, but also the more original HK-21, FT5, Inflict, and, of course, the iconic Y2 grenade-launcher and NTW-20 heavy sniper rifle.I attempted to best recreate the SADF of pre-1994 South Africa so as to keep with the Cold War setting of Wargame.

You will also find Portuguese-speaking Angolian UNITA squads, as well as SADF’s own 32 Battalion (the Buffalos), a veteran light infantry formation.

Infantry features Bokkop regular riflemen, Parabat paratroopers, SASF special forces, and many more units such as militia, recon, MANPADS, engineers.

You’ll also be able to deploy South Africa’s very own attack helicopter design, the Rooivalk.

Helicopters include the French Alouette III, Puma, Super Frelon, and their locally produced versions and prototypes such as the K-Car, Oryx, and XTP-1 Beta.

Furthermore, you will find the Atlas Carver prototype, the planned (yet canceled) first full South African plane design.

Air forces available feature the old Buccaneer, Vampire, and Impala as close-air support, as well as several French Mirage variants and locally modified Cheetah as a fighter and multirole aircraft.

These include the ubiquitous Casspir and Ratel APCs (IFV, recon, command, mortar, and even SAM), the Rooikat wheeled tank (including variants and prototypes), Eland (license-produced French AML), Cactus (French Crotale), the tracked Olifant MBT, many armed versions of locally made SAMIL trucks ( Ystervark and Bosvark SPAAG, Valkiri and Bateleur MLRS), to the iconic G6 Renoster self-propelled howitzer.

Play with close to 90 new SADF units, including 20 brand-new vehicle models, as well as numerous new variants.Focused on self-sufficiency due to strict international embargoes, the SADF fielded many indigenous designs, specially adapted to the local environment and battlefield conditions.įrom Casspir and Ratel APCs to the tracked Olifant main battle tank, the wheeled G6 Renoster self-propelled artillery, Rooivalk attack helicopters - the SADF’s renowned arsenal is now fully available in Wargame Red Dragon.
