The Italian Armed Forces are playable as a stand-alone NATO nation in Wargame: Red Dragon, bringing to the battlefield their unique mix of domestic and foreign material, be it old or new. Fully voiced and featuring 104 new Italian units, 19 new models, and a score of new variants, Wargame: Red Dragon - Nation Pack: Italy boasts one of the most visually up-to-date arsenals of Wargame: Red Dragon.

MAIN FEATURES

    Command 104 new Italian units, with 19 new models, including numerous new variants of existing units, all expertly recreated and fully voiced.

    Esercito Italiano ground forces count on such illustrious vehicles as the AR.76 Campagnola jeep, VCC-1 Camilino APC, the export-produced OF-40 main battle tank with its famous Otomatic SPAAG variant, and the FIROS series of truck-mounted MRLS. It doesn't stop there: a great variety of Fiat 6602 trucks, Fiat 6614 and 6616 APCs can be fielded, as well as SIDAM 25 SPAAG and SPADA SAM, plus late prototype B1 Centauro wheeled tank and recon variants, and the domestic C1 Ariete main battle tank.

    The Aeronautica Militare includes domestic aircraft designs such as the G.91 Gina, Aermacchi MB-339, and Ghibli close air support planes, plus locally upgraded F-104S fighters, as well as several variants of the Panavia Tornado and AV-8B Harrier.

    Flying nap of the earth are the Italian helicopters, with the A-109 in recon and anti-tank roles and several versions of domestically modified Huey and Twin Huey helicopters. The A-129 Mangusta stars as a potent anti-aircraft and anti-tank attack helicopter.

    Boots on the ground are composed of Fantaria di Linea regular riflemen, backed up by Alpini mountain infantry, Paracadutisti paratroopers, Bersaglieri, second-line Riservisti, and Guastatori. Naval troops include Maro and Lagunari, as well as COMSUBIN and Col Moshin special forces and commandos.

    Italian small arms featured encompass everything from World War 2 relics to modern weaponry, from the MAB 38/49 SMGs (Beretta M38), BM-59 rifles (Garand) and MG-42/59 LMGs, to AR-70 and AR-70/90 assault rifles. Other infantry weapons include a mix of M20A1 Super Bazooka, RL-100 Blindice, LAW and APILAS anti-tank weapons. The Italians also rely heavily on recoilless rifles, including the M18 and domestic Folgore.
