    Were you an AFV crewmember? Do you have first hand experience with actually jumping into a new AFV minutes after your old one was shot from underneath you?

    No I was not in an AFV, I retired from the Navy and rode ships. There's no place to go in that environment. If you are knowledgeable and capable you step in where others have fallen in combat. Also, if forced to abandon your ship you augment the unit that picks you up.

    Regardless you are assuming worst case.

    Suppose on the way to the battle your vehicle becomes unusable and there is for whatever reason an abandoned vehicle nearby that is usable.  Would you abandon the fight?

    Maybe it's just perspective but to me a tank is a tool like a rifle. If my rifle broke I'd find another one.

    I also would think, that "re-manning" is highly unrealistic. I can't believe that somebody, who was shot out of his tank, would merrily walk around and seize another one.

    That sounds too much like a MMPRPG, where you re-spawn after five sec's.

    I retired from the military and don't think it's unrealistic........ that's why I asked the question

  3. Apologies if this has been discussed before. I did search but didn't find a specific answer to my question.

    On several occasions I have had crew members of various vehicles injured while in the vicinity there might be a complete crew of a destroyed vehicle. 

    I would have thought you could re-man the personnel depleted vehicle with a crew from a destroyed vehicle of the same type.

    Is this not an available capability or am I doing it wrong?

     

    thanks
