yeah you can use tows and mgsto shoot down planes/choppers but thats like sayin you can use rifles or grenade launchers to shoot them down aswel which you can do but the chance of hitting the target is next to nothing let alone doing enough damage with a 5.56 or 7.62 round. the reason armies...

the future lynx has AA? i thought it was armed with TOWs which have been around since the 70s but not with any anti air capability weapons. it seems eftf are the only faction not to have any anti air capability apart from the typhoon but does have 3 MBTs!!! is the talon sword that dudey robot...

so there aint goin to be any ground based anti air units for the eftf then? atleast not for the fore seeable future. ooooooo gurkhas!!!! they gona have like some crazy bonus dice score to account for their hand to hand training and for their kukri "knifes" that can decapitate a cow in a single...

..oh i thought it was the wermacht...or i have i jus read to many ww2 books lol dont know much at all bout modern german army :p

wot exactly is a german heer unit? anti tank? any 1 know how the support units are going to become available? i posted on the evo command website my idea for support units for all the factions being combined into 1 box with up to 10 troops per box. so u cud have anti tank/air teams plus...

lol u took everythin i jus said in completely the wrong way :p wot i was getin at with the blowpipe was that it wasnt a bad weapon jus had its problems. an every weapon get replaced at some point. wasnt denying the fact it was replaced with javelin which it self is due to be replaced. it missed...

only on a couple very rare occasions was the blowpipe the only air defense asset around an therefore lot less kill ratio to rounds fired as all other aa weapons were far better such as sea dart/wolf an rapiers. aswel as argentine piltos had orders to avoid ground fire an go for the ships so no...

as far as i know blowpipe performed admirably considering the conditions an how few enemy planes flew over the islands after the landings as most squadrons were down to less than half strength an were all sent after the navy not the para/marines. also blowpipe is meant to be used as last resort...

is that website a rpg website? some of the stuff on it isnt very accurate at all apart from stuff they copy an pasted off other websites. troops ditched sa80s during combat to use other weapons?! obviously knows nothin bout brit operating procedures that stops any soldier doin so as weapon could...

iv seen videos of anti tank javelin bein field tested an m8 who not long done AT training also says its replacing milan . not sure bout the aa version though as thats first iv heard of it. http://www.army.mod.uk/equipment/pw/pw_mat.htm...

javelin is anti tank not anti air or atleast thats how it is in brit army. javelin is for use agaisnt main battle tanks and nlaw is for use agaisnt light armour at short range around 500 metres. starstreak is the anti air missile as is the rapier but rapier is for short range an can fire on 2...

javelin is replacing milan an gpmg is goin out of use for many years yet as its such a good section level machine gun an why get rid of somethin has no faults an all other guns that its compared to its either better than or just as good as. starstreak as far as i know is bein used along side the...

lsws have been in service since introduction of sa80 back in 85-88 as it replaced the bren guns from the 30's. army was debating the use of sa80s to be brought forward by couple years to be used in falklands but army thankfully though it best to stay with current issue stens,brens,slrs an gpmgs...

it was just an example seen as u said sa80 can only fire 2 mags then needs to cool down which is incorrect as they have been battle proven to last for hours on end firing through mag after mag an not needin to cool down. only weapons that need to do that are the machine guns when suppressing...

for starters sa80a2 is heavier but its also the best rifle in the world as due to its new upgrade(thx to the germans at H&K) it now has the least stopages(jams) of any rifle expecially in freezin conditions an is twice as reliable as the m16a2 an its been around for 6 years so not really old...
