Ok rgr thx for info

Re: obat28 Netherlands
 

Since 1996 we have the Diemaco in our organisation. The 7A1 replaced the Fal, the C8 replaced the UZI. All regular military and non fighting units received the Diemaco C7.

The Minimi entered in 2002 and replaced the MAG 7.62. Only 2 Minimi’s replaced 1x MAG.

Also since 1999 we have the Acuracy .338 2x in a platoon (each section 1x)

The Panzerfaust 3 will be from this moment 2x in a platoon (each section 1x) ammo not known but at least 6 shots but likely more.

MobHack I have some info I like to Email you. Please give Email adres.

Thx

Re: obat28 Netherlands
 

You seem to be using "section" to mean a half-paltoon, instead of the normal usage ( Americans call a sectiona "squad")? That is the old World-war One way of organising a platoon into 2 "chunks".

The C7 is there already.

I'll take your other comments on board

the panzerfaust 3 ISD was when?

I'll make those changes to the master build and that OOB will be released whenever we do a 1.01 update.

Cheers

Re: obat28 Netherlands
 

ISD?? I f you mean when it was implemented.. From Mai this year.

Yes we still have squads http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
2x squads is a section
2x sections is a platoon

Re: obat28 Netherlands
 

Oh yes... 2x underslung granate launcher in a squad/group since 2003 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Thanks for updates on CD release http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Here are some photo's of the Lynx (Recon). The correct name must be the M113 C&R on English or M113 C&V on Dutch. The photo's used at this moment are from a YPR 765 and is not right. These are the correct photo's

First the .50 version than the 25mm version.

Re: obat28 Netherlands
 

I have found one major and two minor 'bugs' in the Dutch OOB:

-There are Airmobile units (units 219 & 223 and formation 152) in the Dutch OOB going back untill 1968, this isn't possible though, since it was in 1993 that the Royal Netherlands Army raised her first Air Manouvre Bridge (Source: www.airmanouvrebrigade.nl).

-The next thing is the DAF YP408 series, which have been in use by the Royal Netherlands Army from 1964 untill 1988 (Source: http://gaf.zeelandnet.nl/yp408/), in particulair the mortar version and recon version:
-The YP408 PW-MT(MR) (068) was a mortar carrier, it had a towing bracket at the back to which the 120mm Brandt-Rye was attached. it carried 50 rounds in it's cargo.
-The YP408-PWCO (254) in WinSPMT is serving as a FO vehicle, in my opinion the YP408 PW-RDR (radar) should be having this role (which isn't in WinSPMBT yet), since the YP408 PW-CO was used by the commander of a company!

Also I'm missing the Landrover as a utility vehicle in the Royal Netherlands Army, but I don't have any exact information about this one. Maby someone else has?
