Modern conflict with Recon system??

Was thinking of running a Recon game of a modern conflict zone. Kinda stuck about which area and the I would leave it up to the players as to what side you are on.
Examples would be,
Russian separatists Vs Ukrainians
PKK Vs IS
PKK Vs Turkey
IRA Vs Britian
Ect.
Im open to the players being any side as long as you dont expect an extremely nuanced understanding of the of conflict. I will research heavly but I am by no means an expert.
I would take 6ish players, as its Recon you can very easily die from 1 or 2 hits. Rolling up a back up character would be highly suggested. And please dont expect to survive. Hehehe
Any weapon not on the books I will allow but if I rule that it does 4d6×10 not 5d6×10 it's pretty final.

If no intrest in a modern conflict we could do the standard Vietnam setting .

So not so much a recruiting page but looking for suggestions on the war/conflict/"police action".

Perhaps it would be too much work, but create your own. Would that be an option? I recall various Clone Wars episodes that recreated typical war movies scenes remarkably, just in that Star Wars lens.

But say we do the 6 day war or Serbian conflict. The maps and npc names are there. Also the pc's would have to extremely remarkable to change the fate of the conflict.
I understand the not wanting to offend if you were effected one way or another by it as it was a real world action with dire/direct consequences. But if people are able to play 1 billion WW2 games and not rage or be ultra edgy about it I dont see much difference.

Also the particulars of the scene or skirmishes would be made up or incredibly changed
