Eagle Red was a mod originally designed for Red Alert 2, with later versions compatible with the expansion pack Yuri's Revenge. The mod designer was Eagle, and co-designed by The Phiend. The mod was best known for the Asian Alliance project, which aimed to design a brand new side with new technologies. As stated by The Phiend, "The Asian Alliance will be a new faction, composed of China, Japan, and Korea. Yuri's technology will be split between the Soviets and the Asian Alliance. The Asian Alliance will also have some new technology". The Asian Alliance was never fully completed, but was released in the 2.0a beta release. Certain units had either no cameo or recycled ones, and there was some borrowing of unit sounds, but the AA was a playable side. In addition to adding the AA in place of Yuri, the mod replaced some of the existing countries as well. Cuba and Yuri were removed from the game to make way for the Netherlands and China. The final standing of the three sides in 2.0a was the Allies, consisting of America, Britain, Germany, and the Netherlands; the Soviets, which was reduced to Russia, Iraq, and Libya; and the Alliance, which included China, Korea, and Japan. The Eagle Red mod had several other public releases, the most popular being v1.5, the last release to support RA2, and v1.8 for YR, the final complete release.
