There is a new update posted today over at the Desert Conflict (http://www.desert-conflict.org/) mod website. They are showing off their Iraqi Riverboat. Take a look:
After listening to several of the conversations around our forums, we decided that the poor, over worked, and under paid Iraqi soldiers deserve a nice holiday on the water. Fun activities are to include plucking the feathers of passing birds and c4 fishing.... and possibly some jihad ramming. So......In the spirit of improvised field alterations, we present to you the IRB Iraqi Riverboat.
Expect quite a few different variations as far as weapons loadouts go. This thing is intended to be fairly fast and well armed as it is paper thin. This is just a preliminary bundle of the model, but the skin will come soon. Then we will not have to put RIB's all over the place on our maps with water.
We have the outboards turning, the steering wheel rotates properly and the throttle is doing it's thing as well when you give it the gas. I may have to chamfer the front of the boat as it looks a little squared off, but that is a quick fix.

Looking good. Be sure to swing by their site (http://www.desert-conflict.org/) to see more.
