With the unbelievable variety of vests and helmets and personal gear that you see on both sides, a decent portion of it has got to be Chinese produced airsoft gear- I've had suspicions that at least some armor and a lot of those high-cut Ops-Core helmets you see worn by both sides are Chinese manufactured. While it's probably made to actually be used as armor and not as airsoft props, there are a lot of US tactical gear 'manufacturers' that are mostly importing and rebranding Chinese armor plates and helmets with questionable levels of protection and quality. Similar to drones, I'm sure both sides are directly contacting Chinese factories for large orders, similar to what we saw in Israel when they were initially gearing up for Gaza, and probably largely done through volunteer organizations or at the unit level.

Footage from an airsoft game, unfortunately

Had that same thought- maybe the solid green ones without RPG cages are new production? or maybe ones taken from the Indonesian order? I'm no expert on its variations, but the headlights on the two green ones are much different than most you see

Photoshopping out the original Telegram channel watermark, same thing happened with the destroyed S400 command post photo which was of course taken as proof that it was fake.

Friendly vehicles will block fire, but it is physics based and it is luck of the draw if the infantry will position themselves behind the vehicle or not

You can especially tell it's cheap crap because almost the entire product line is in stock and shippable to the US from Russian replica airsoft gear seller Grey-Shop, not good enough to be entirely bought out by volunteers and mobiks

Hmm, looks like captured T-80BV (or U?) with T-72B3 Obr. 2016 Kontakt-5/Relikt turret ERA wedges and sideskirts?? Very odd

Just because I'm too interested in personal gear: Almost 100% the Paul Boye vest, considering we know France has donated armor and I can't think of a country who has used the CIRAS or RMV in substantial numbers in the past 15 years

Unfortunately could only find the Getty watermarked original on Google https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/ukrainian-artillery-unit-fires-with-a-2s7-pion-a-self-news-photo/1242731892

I've had a similar lack of success (or really, giving up after all of my BRDMs went up in flames with no contacts), but there are accessible roads through the forest across the river. At least one has has something nasty waiting at the end, though

It hasn't really been noticeable in my playthrough- pretty much every unit, down to Warrior IFVs, is able to call for fire with only a minute or two longer delay than platoon leaders, and you generally have attached FOs as well. Hey, at least you knew the reference!

Had the same problem in the campaign, confirmed in QB that all British infantry platoon leaders are denied calling any artillery support, including their own 51mm mortar. Attached is a QB save file. Brit can't call arty.bts
