The RDS is a reflex sight in ArmA 3. It was added with the release of the Reaction Forces Creator DLC.
Design[]
The RDS is a compact reflex sight designed exclusively for use on handguns with a compatible rail:
The RDS uses a red-tinted dot for its reticle. It is set to a fixed zeroing of 50 m which cannot be manually adjusted.[CfgWp 1] The lens is thermally opaque and cannot be seen through with infrared goggles.
It should be noted that mounting the RDS onto a pistol will significantly increase its inertia penalty (+0.5).[CfgWp 3]
AI[]
NOTE: The information in this section only applies to the AI.
The RDS does not have an optical sight classification.[1] If the weapon is configured with AI-only firemodes[2], AI units utilise the same firemodes as human players as well as any firemodes that do not have an optics restriction. However, they will not have access to close (type 0), medium (type 1) or far (type 2) range firemodes.[3]
Camouflage[]
- Black: Matte black finish.
Trivia[]
- The RDS is seemingly modelled after the Aimpoint "Micro R-1" reflex sight.
