without fueling a NATO tank or Russia tank stronk war, If you are a crewman who has been informed that if you put your arm into the breach area when the tank is loading that it will load your arm in most likely. I mean it is impossible for it to load your arm in if you are sitting properly in. I've searched countless of times for a legitimate arm loading incident it hasnt happened. Stop with this myth.

NATO should get Poland and US marine corps, the REDFOR should get Belarus and VDV, And some GRU Spetsnaz please

Agreed, Would be great if infantry and can throw a smoke grenade or grenade prior to entering to flush out enemies from buildings.

The tank biathlon, That was the Kuwaiti crew, They messed up hardcore

Panzersaurkrautwerfer, Center mass aiming is of course standard training, But they found from experiences in Chechnya and Afghanistan, Burst shooting like that if it doesn't hit him it will make him run for cover, And it is of course better to hit the target with multiple rounds. But shooting single fire is also a effective firing for long range too, Actually I would prefer the single fire over it but depending on certain situations using the recoil to get multiple hits would come in handy. Thanks for sharing your experience, We had a M4 in our storage, I think it was taken from the Georgian military, I didn't get to shoot it but I liked the overall sleek design of it.

I guess you would be right if we were talking about the standard AK-74 vs the M16A4, But for a while now Russian soldiers have been issued AK-74Ms which fix the problems you have stated of the AK, But the standard AK-74 isn't that bad either, Not as accurate in the MMs as the M16A2 but not far off either. Anyways lets not turn this into AK vs M16 war about the 9mm, I think 9mm handgun isn't a joke, Maybe you can sell it out on the battlefield somewhere and make some extra bucks

Fair enough But my problem with the units tiring out is that they get tired just at a run to a location without the need to you know fight the battle just get to the location. And you are right about the firing accuracy I might have over looked that fact, But there were special techniques taught to us shooting from long ranges, Usually told to pull the trigger in burst form from right leg, And the bullets would usually hit the leg up to the torso. But of course this isn't real life but a game, But I would look forward to it in future updates or future games to make infantry battle more realistic.

I made a scenario with a Russian armored offensive against Ukrainian lines, And it was a huge success T-72B3 was penetrating at 500 meters against BM Oplots. Of course until I got too excited and sent my tanks in a blitzkrieg style rush and lost 6 out of 11 tanks, But that aside I still won and got reliable penetrations.

Been playing CMBS with addiction, Great game overall. I have to say about something that doesn't have to be in the game but would be a great extra. When I was serving in the army, We would run with heavy gear in training, Usually with 30-40 KGs for about 2-3KM sometimes more, Over time we would get use to it and be able to do it. But I am seeing soldiers in the game get tired after a short run. Sure you can say where I served was a elite but it definitely isn't special forces. Other things I am a bit edgy on is the infantry being so packed up together while moving, Of course these aren't huge problems I am still quite satisfied with this game. But these are just small adjustments that would make this game better. Also another problem is usually when I am playing with Ukrainian and Russian infantry they have to shoot alot to hit a target at even 70 meters, Where as in our training basic shooting was at a way higher standard. But I usually dont have accuracy problems with US troops, In-game.

Quite true, Can't wait till these beasts enter service.

Could be Kurganets or Bumerang too.

Russia uses ATGMs as a standard on the BMP-2s you are able to dismount it and use it on the ground infantry role. Would be cool if you could dismount the AT-5B missile.

Did it, Kornets plus Khrizantemas, Infantry, Tanks. Minor RU victory, Wish I could tune down those M1A2 SEP vUbers though. Gave the US a huge force compared to the Russian one. Will get some screenshots in.

It could be Donetsk gap, With a NATO attack on Russia With a US build which makes more sense. Infact this has inspired me, I may make a scenario with a massive US tank force vs a smaller RU force defending.

LOL

It is a propaganda piece easy as that, Putin won all his elections fairly, Just like Obama has, And George W. Bush has, Journalists are the scums of media propaganda, Sure Putin did some bad stuff but as always the west over exaggerates it. I honestly would get into more detail but you know after a while someone gets sick of arguing the same things over and over. This is a forum for a good game, I don't think we should take it this off track. If you want to continue you this lets type in messages.

A book against Vladimir Putin, For sale online directed towards the western media. If it is so important why does she sell the book is she too poor how sad Or is it made for media standards the west puts out on their populace, So she can make some $$$$ she is smart You can get information about Russia from me, And I wont charge you but as a person tell you about stuff for free.

It is as simple as that man, And nice one

You seem to know more about Russia then me... I must have been living in a different parallel universe. Mr.Putin and his gang is wrecking havoc in my country you were right!!!!! (sarcasm to the absolute 100%)

Sino-Soviet clash gone into full scale war would be great. Good thought never thought about that one. A Vietnam one would be great too. Definitely got excited for games like that.

I am aware that I am not my country I just gave my point out. Crime levels are not increasing, I remember how it was in the 90s alot of criminals to now, Putin and his government have lowered it by a huge amount, Corruption is still high in the local government, But not how it was in the 90s. Putin is fixing stuff like these, There are a lot of things you westerners are missing out on just on the sole fact because of your media, And the fact you dont live here. I think there is a Crimean dude here ask him how Crimea is. Even the French delegation said the Crimean people mostly want Russia.

Since I am not good at forum stuff I will reply to you in whole. Kettler, The Russian economy is not stabilized in terms of currency rate, It has alot of other ways it keeps its economy. But do to facts that I am kind of busy and I really am not in the mood to get into very detail I will leave the economy part out of my reply. I will get into greater detail later. The TU-160M2 will be using new technologies designed for the PAK DA bomber, It will be cheaper then the PAK DA but still very capable. The PAK DA bomber will be extended to 2023 to enter service. The plus side of this is that PAK DA will receive more research and development, Downside is you lose out on your major advantage of having such a advanced bomber, Thus risk your enemy on developing one before you. And what do you mean the defense minister cant put a spin on it however he likes? The T-72B4 with Relikt armor upgrade is a very good upgrade, If you want to get into argument about it we can. The T-90 production ended they chose upgrading T-72Bs to brand new condition and adding new technologies over it, Because it was more cheap. But now they are going to upgrade T-90s to T-90AM standards, And buy new T-90AMs too. Which will be more cost effective and still capable rather then buying hundreds of T-14 by 2017. And keep in mind Germany and France will be building a completely new tank of 4th generation by 2030. About the Kuznetsov, I wish there was a face palm emoji. You forget that the Kuznetsov doesn't move across oceans alone, It has other vessels supporting it , And tug boats are sent just in case, If you judge a military ship because it has a support tug boat nearby then I don't know if I can discuss with you about certain topics... You keep judging Russia and its capabilities yet you still rely on sources, From "Western" sites. My father's friend whom is also my friend, Is a Colonel in the Russian navy, The Kuznetsov is enough for Russia's military doctrine for now. We don't need to go and invade countries halfway across the world for now. BTW I am well educated about the Russian armed forces and our histroy, More so then alot of foreign people to my country. I dont think its right to put Steve in your reply and speak of him so highly, No offence to him I am sure he is a quite educated person, But to me that's like "Steve knows about your country and your armed forces then you."

Guys on western media sources, They make it sound like we are eating surplus from ex-ussr storages Sanctions haven't effect me at all, Our economy wont decline but incline in the coming years. I mean I want to ask all "westerners" why is it, You guys never give us a chance, Or listen to us, Yet you just believe in your own sources. This is not fair to me, I watch things happening in America in English, Not from Russian sources. As a CMBS player I ask all my forum comrades here to atleast just a few times look at Russian sources on things happening in Russia. Going into more detail, I even know to watch FOX news over CNN And that Democrats < Republican. Ok this was off topic, But I felt I needed to say this. And about Armata production arguments on here, Not all of the 2000 claimed Armata chassis will be tanks, It will be the mixture of the Tank, IFV, And its other variants. If you ask me 300 T-14 sounds about right till 2020, Dont expect a higher number. They will be upgrading T-72B3s to B4M, Buying new T-90AMs and upgrading older T-90 variants. And don't forget the tank version of Kurganets, And its other variants.

That sounds interesting, Would love to hear about your service in the tank forces, I am a tank nut myself and addicted to learning about tanks I was a ground troop at most, Although I have driven the BMD-2 and BTR-80 before. And yes, The imager is the most important for target identification and engagement, It boggles my mind how Russia just started mass introduction of thermals onto tanks in 2005, While the U.S. has been doing it since the 80s... But the tanks we had were for European standards, Mostly 1500 meter engagement ranges. At night operations the U.S. tanks clearly had advantages back then and still do in overall quantity and for now quality.

You were in a M1A2 SEP v2? Wow that's kind of cool. Now everything you said regarding the M1A2's optics is true, Except for the T-90AMs thermal which is also new generation, Probably will be using the one on the T-14. Which is supposedly to be in the same generation of thermals the M1A2 SEP V2 has. The T-90AM uses a new developed domestic technologies, Where as the only foreign component on the T-90A is the Thales imager, Which you are correct in saying it isn't as good as the ones on the M1A2 SEP v2.
