Quote from: WikipediaOn 22 April 2010, Bohemia Interactive confirmed that the expansion pack titled Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead will be released worldwide on 29 June 2010. According to the site, players will be able to play as members of the United States Army in a fictional region of west-Asia named Takistan, where the terrain is based on Afghanistan. Operation Arrowhead will include three new maps, a variety of new units, vehicles and equipment, as well as the eponymous campaign.
The expansion will be standalone, meaning it can be run without the content in the original ARMA 2, but players who purchased ARMA 2 will also be able to integrate that content into Operation Arrowhead. The developers plan on releasing some of the core changes introduced in Operation Arrowhead (such as performance optimizations) as patches, allowing regular ARMA 2 players to access to any engine improvements introduced in the expansion. New content, however, will remain exclusive to Operation Arrowhead.
Nothing on the front page or news forum at Bohemia though.

QuoteSet three years after the original conflict, another flashpoint in the region causes Americans to administer tactical face-biff to local forces.
No improvement on dedicated servers though ...
QuoteQ. Do you plan to support multi-home support for dedicated servers? GSP's need and require this feature. It is a critical reason that a significant portion of big GSP's refuse to host the game.
A. Not planned at the moment.
I find that simply incredible.
