The Lounge is a place to talk freely, very little subject limitations as long as it's BAT related so yes, this is the place.
However, your topic title is a terrible choice.
Understand this.
BAT is not a generator of mods but an integrator. As it has happened, over the
years there has been a wave that created many russian modern ground mods. I am not sure but I believe most came over from our Russian friends at aviaskins even. There has never been a matching number in modern western vehicles being created, however there are some nice ones that can be well used to stack a scenery in Vietnam or even the 90s. As long as modders don't produce them, they simple don't exist and that's what you see in a mod assembly like BAT.
