Re: Machineguns

The only time I've heard of tanks firing their MG on other tanks IRL is a process called "dusting" (Standard USMC doctrine, I assume the Army is the same way)

Dusting is when you fire on a...

Re: Interesting Site: Wheeled vs. Tracked AFV (US

Re: Interesting Site: Wheeled vs. Tracked AFV (US

If I'm not mistaken, isn't the add-on armor for the AMTRACs (LVTP-7 and AAV-7) only to protect them against Russian 14.5mm machine guns?

Gentlemen,

You both certainly make some good points and much like a moth to a flame, I feel compelled to throw my 2 cents into a heated discussion.

Re: UK IFV Warrior, new infomation.

Why do you say SLAT armor would stop 70% of RPG's? I'm just wondering what your source is, or is it a judgement call on your part?

I'm not real knowledgable on this subject, but I...

Re: winMBT low percentile hits

I thought that I had once noticed this, but concluded it was a psychological thing. I think we are more likely to remember a 55% miss than a hit, as well as remembering a 20% hit more than a miss,...

I had an idea from another post thread. Why don't we all take a moment and list some of our favorite sources for OOB data. I know that I always appreciate the "hey look over there" kind of help.

This is my favorite site. It doesn't have Venezuela, but they are close to Colombia, only not as modern / mechanized. This site also has links to other sites.

Re: UAV Issues

I agree with Shadowcougar. At the very least, UAV's should be immune to small arms fire. And missiles should only get a reduced chance of hitting (Like .1%, 1 in 1,000).

Re: Friendly Fire from aircraft

I meant that as a % of overall fatricide casualties, airstrikes have gone down. Fatricide still exists in the form of bad arty coordinates, panic fire from troops, etc.

Re: US Army OOB

Re: Paratroops Question

It pretty rare IRL for airborne troops to take casualties on landing that is. It happens I'm sure, but make it a 1 / 100 chance not the 1 in 15 I seem to always have.

Re: Paratroops Question

it's clear terrain, no problems, no reason for it. It annoys me too that the normal airborne squads take casualties too. It's pretty rare.
