Default Re: artillery cluster ammo

Quote:
Many moderne army have start to remove cluster ammo for political, moral () reasons but in reality it's becauses this hold weapons systems are uneffective against modern vehicle and too dangerous for fighting agains guerilla or urban area (close quarter fight, civilians, unexploded ammo, ...)
May I suggest watching some video of it working the chances of not getting a hit are remote if it lands near the target slow mo shows target vanish in a cloud of explosions.
On the power may have caused ammo blow out but one I saw went off directly above the tank & blew the turret at least 20 feet in the air.
They stop using them unless we have a real war of course because they leave unexploded munitions behind for the unwary civilian to trigger by jumping in the air & spreading themselves in all directions, nothing to do with effectivness.
