Henry Turner is releasing more 3D files for his 15mm Battleground 1983 range. The Soviets are already available, including the recently released VDV figures. Here are some photos of BOAR and US Army figures as well, engaged in close quarters fighting with their Soviet counterparts. First up, a US anti-tank team with SMAW and Dragon, supported by a GPMG team:
Here they in action against a Soviet tank (from m_bergman):
Not to be outdone, BOAR take on a BMP and infantry support with a Milan and 82mm recoiless rifle:

21/01/2023 at 19:34 #182526Robert DunlopParticipantThank you very much. I appreciate the feedback.

21/01/2023 at 22:40 #182527Peter FitzpatrickParticipantI look forward to being able to get hold of his BAOR infantry. I’ve printed some of his 6-15mm Napoleonics, and they paint up very well, so I have high hopes.
22/01/2023 at 06:20 #182533Фил ЛохминParticipantHenry Turner makes interesting miniatures of the Airborne Forces, I was thinking of purchasing them for my models of armored vehicles of the Soviet Airborne Forces BUT one moment stopped me – all the figures are in berets. I want to have (most likely I will have to do it myself) figures of paratroopers in jump helmets (as it was in reality)

Here are some 15mm VDV figures that I painted up but, as you say, they have the berets. I will check with Henry about the jump helmets. The change is not difficult, if you have access to the Blender files but I don’t know if these were released:

<p style=”text-align: left;”>During the landing , the Soviet airborne troops did not wear unloading vests</p>23/01/2023 at 13:30 #182587Robert DunlopParticipantФил Лохмин, Henry has confirmed that he is not planning to create the jump helmets but he will be releasing the Blender files at some time later this year. It is not unethical for you to modify the content of the Blender files when these are available; only unethical to sell the results without permission from Henry. The Blender files are designed to enable changes to made for personal use.
The berets and ammo vests are designed to represent VDV in action as ground troops well after a landing.
