==Introduction==


'''RKSL Studios''' (RKSL) was formed in October 2003 by Rockape (aka RockofSL). Working solo until 2005 RKSL released various sets of addons both as RKSL releases and as part of several Teams.

in the last year we've been working with other teams and continuing to develop several projects whihc will be transfered to ArmA when possible.
==Final OFP Projects==
In 2005 RKSL announced a series of new projects aimed at increaing the level of realism and accuracy.  THese were signicantly more ambitious than previous projects all made possible UNN joining the Team. Two projects very quickly took precidence in our development schedule.
*VTOL System - Harrier GR.7
*Fire Control System - Rapier FSC and Rapier FSB
You can find out more on the RKSL website.  We hope to release the Betas of these very soon.
==Armed Assault and Beyond==
With the advent of ArmA's new graphics and scripting engine we have decied to simulate the British Expeditionary Forces systems either currently in service or due in service by 2012-17.
In the last 12 months British, US and NATO forces have changed dramatically, re-aligning themselves to fight modern wars, counter ‘terrorism’ and insurgency.  This has meant the removal of several aircraft types, ships and numerous vehicles from service and the deployment of integrated battlefield control systems, dramatically changing how wars are fought.  So far the community hasn’t produced many of this type of addons, things designed to be used as part of an integrated force.
'''PHASE 1 - The addons'''
For ease of devleopment we've chosed to develop and release addons in two phases. For Phase 1 these include:
'''''Naval Fleet:'''''
* CVF Carrier
* Ocean Class LPH
* Albion Class LPD
* Astute Class (SSN) Sub (Cruise Missile platform etc) – For Sea Launched Cruise missiles
* Vanguard (SSBN) Class Sub – As above
* Type 45 for Fleet air defence
* Support ships etc
Each with associated radars, SAM, CIWS, Decoys etc all Fire Control Linked as per Rapier FSC etc
'''''Fleet Borne Tasked Air Group:'''''
* JCA/F35B
* Harrier GR9
* Merlin HM1
* Merlin HM(A)1
* Merlin HC3/5
* Chinook HC2 & 3
* Lynx HMA8
* WAH-1 Longbow
'''''Land Based Air power'''''
* Tornado GR4
* Tornado F3
* Typhoon T1
* Typhoon F2
* Nimrod MR4
* E-3D Sentry
* C-130C3/C5
* A400M
* C-17 Globemaster III
'''''Battlefield Support:'''''
* Sentinel R1 (ASTOR)
* Predator A UAV
* BAE Corax (UCAV)
* Rapier FSC (RKSL v2)
* Type 101 Commander Land based Radar
* Type 93 Martello Land based Radar
'''PHASE 2 – Integrating Systems'''
This phase will take the form of a update patch.  Replacing the config and scripts with a new configs etc allowing the adodns to interact wiht each other.  Providing information to the units on the ground and in the air.  The plan is to create an offshore ‘base’ defended by all the associated technology that is present on today’s (and tomorrow’s) battlefields.  These will provide the basis of the modern integrated information systems to accurately simulate the modern battlefield as seen from the perspective of a UK armed forces member.
We are looking in to ways to simulate the sort of communication a pilot/soldier/gunner would expect to get. This means systems and scenarios such as:
* AWACS – Warning of incoming aircraft and dynamic requests for CAS, Medivac and extraction.
* ASTOR – Airborne Stand Off Radar – Real time battlefield Intel provided to the appropriately equipped personnel and vehicles.
* JTIDS – Joint Tactical Information Distribution (Designation) System – Target Sharing and situational displays.
* Fire Control on air defence systems – AI ability to engage multiple targets at once and assign assets to threats.
* UAV/UCAV tasking – requesting UAV intel/cover and being able to direct it via radio.
Adding support information for Air-to-Air missions, Swing role functions accurate mission profiles that change dynamically.
