Pak40 Posted June 7, 2001 Share Posted June 7, 2001 Maybe I'm getting a little too picky about my OOBs but isn't the U.S. heavy weapons Company supposed to have the water cooled .30 machineguns and six 81mm mortars? Currently it has 8 air cooled .30s and one 81mm spotter. The spotter's ammo decreases 4 rounds at a time, so I'm assuming that means only 4 mortars are firing. Please excuse me if this has been beaten to death already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the majority of units used the aircooled variant. They also decided to use standard 4 gun batteries for all artillery, rather then spend the time making 500 different batteries with more or less guns.
