    Thanks to all for your title, but we not chose it yet ;)

    For all about testing! You not need to do some thing hard, or play all 17 scenarios (just as much as you can) just play (in real-time or WEGO as you wish) and after that send to us your review:

    1. Briefing - how it to you, may be some errors (or just 'ok').

    2. Map - how it, may be some mistakes on map

    3. AI - this important, how it operated, may be do some thing wrong, or bad.

    And your impressions.

    And this is all.

    Dissapointed with the research that went into this

    I also don't hear about lowering numbers of RPG in soviet platoons, but of course was a problem with RPG effectives against enemy infantry (but don't remember that HEAT works good against fortress positions) without HE grenades (by the way mujaheddins had HE grenades for RPG-7 - chines or Iranian). But I want to say, that soviets forces used in Afghanistan very powerful rocket-propelled flame-thrower RPO "Shmel"/"Rias" - unfortunately we don't have it in game.

    Russian Helmets & Body Armor

    in Combat Mission Afghanistan

    Posted

    Soviet bodyarmor:

    In period of 1980-89 soviets had 3 main type of bodyarmor:

    In 1981, the body armor was adopted to supply the USSR Armed Forces, called 6B2 (Ж-81). Its protective composition consisted of a titanium armored AДУ-605-80 1.25 mm thick and ballistic screen made of aramid fabrics ТСВМ-ВЖ. When the mass of 4,8 kg BА provide protection against shrapnel and pistol bullets. Withstand bullets long-barreled smallarms weapons it could not (bullet cartridge 7,62 x39 penetrated the protective composition already at distances of 400-600 meters).

    Going into Afghanistan War demanded equipping the army more reliable means of individual body armor, providing protection from the bullets of small arms on the actual range of combined arms battle. Were developed and adopted for the supply of two types of body armor: 6B3TM and 6B4. In the first use of titanium armored АДУ-605T-83 6,5 mm thick, in the second - Ceramic AДУ 14.20.00.000, boron carbide. Both provide a circular bulletproof vest protected from bullets PS 7.62 x39 cartridge from a distance of 10 meters. However, military experience has shown that the weight of such protection is obtained excessive. So, 6B3TM weighed 12.2 kg, and 6B4 - 12 kg. As a result, it was decided to make the protection differentiated: bulletproof chest section, and back - ballistic (with titanium armor, similar to those used in the vest 6B2. It is possible to reduce weight vests to 8,2 and 7,6 kg, respectively. In 1985, these bullet-proof vests have been taken to supply under the symbol 6B3-01 (Ж-85T)

    and 6B401 (Ж-85Т)

    8.jpg

    When creating these vests for the first time an attempt was made to combine the protective functions with the possibility of carrying military calculations. In the pockets of special covers vests could be placed 4 stores to AK or RPK, 4 hand grenades, gas mask and a radio station.

    And 6B5 (Ж-86)

    9.jpg

    Based on the accumulated experience, it was decided to make a unified body armor, which, having a single structure could be equipped with different types of armor elements and provide protection at various levels. This vest was adopted for the supply in 1986 under the symbol 6B5 (Ж-86). Others taken to supply body armor has been decided to leave the troops to their full replacement (actually, BА 6B3-01 had to war and the first and second chechnskie campaign).

    The new jacket was a case in which the screens were placed soft ballistic fabric ТСВМ-ДЖ, and so-called circuit boards, which were placed in the pockets of armored. In the protective composition can be used armor types: ceramic AДУ 14.20.00.000, titanium АДУ-605T-83 and AДУ-605-80 and steel АДУ 14.05 3,8 mm thick

    In the photo shows the jacket of one of the most recent issue - already with a cover of fabric with camouflage patterns, "birch", adopted for the Armed Forces. Most of the previously issued flak jackets took blankets from a nylon fabric of various shades of green or gray-green color. There were also party with covers made of cotton fabric with a camouflage pattern (two-tone for the KGB and the MVD of the USSR, tri-color - for the Airborne and Marine Corps).

    Depending on the type of protective composition and, accordingly, secured by the level of protection vest had 9 modifications.

    Flak 6B5 and 6B5-11-12 have ballistic protection primasse 3 and 5 kg, respectively. They were intended to calculate artillery, missile systems, ACS, l / s headquarters, support units, etc.

    Flak 6B5-13 6B5-14 6B5-15 provides a circular bulletproof protection, weight 11 kg (6B5-15 - 11,5 kg) and were destined for hp units that carry out specific short-term military objectives (assault, etc. )

    Flak 6B5-16 6B5-17 6B5-18 6B5-19 with differentiated protection and weighing 7 kg (6B5-19 - 6 kg) were intended for l / CB combat units, airborne troops and marines of the Navy.

    Production of these vests continued until 1998. In 2000, the order of the Minister of Defense BА series 6B5 were removed from the supply, while leaving in service in the army jackets to full replacement of modern products.

    in Combat Mission Afghanistan

    Posted

    New modules it's good, but Afghanistan modul not have many needful staff (just western players don't know this), for example:

    All soviet forces had body-armor, flamethrowers, heavy 240mm mortars, silent guns/sniper rifles, laser guide artillery shells, and many etc. Also and majaheds had much more than in module has...
