Better Vanilla - US LOADOUT Arma Reforger Mod

Better vanilla U.S. Loadout is a high-quality visual enhancement mod focused on authentically upgrading American military web gear and field equipment. Designed with historical accuracy and battlefield immersion in mind, this mod completely reworks U.S. Army load-bearing equipment, delivering sharper textures, improved models, and realistic material detailing that reflects late–Cold War combat conditions. The mod introduces visually accurate webbing systems inspired by the transition period between the end of the Vietnam War and the early 1980s. Soldiers are equipped with era-appropriate ALICE gear, updated pouches, canteens, butt packs, and field accessories, all carefully crafted to capture the rugged, battle-worn look of troops operating in tropical and expeditionary environments. Beyond visual upgrades, U.S. Loadout adds functional improvements to infantry roles. Machine gunners can now carry and distribute additional ammunition, allowing assistant gunners and riflemen to transport spare belts and resupply automatic weapons in the field. This system enhances squad-level coordination and reinforces realistic combat logistics, especially during prolonged engagements. The primary goal of the mod is to authentically represent two key historical moments: The final phase and legacy of the Vietnam War. The 1983 invasion of Grenada (Operation Urgent Fury). By combining historically accurate equipment, immersive visuals, and practical gameplay mechanics, U.S. Loadout delivers a grounded and faithful portrayal of U.S. forces during a pivotal transition in modern military history.
