Taxi drivers: moving spotters


Recommended Posts

Hi guys!

I have a very stupid but also important question about the vehicle needed to embark a russian artillery spotter. For me is quite strange as a 2 men unit cannot be mounted in a jeep, tank or MG carrier! :(

What's the reason for this? i can understand that he rear part of a tank is not a nice place for a radio station, but a light transport...

Thx in advance.

And because of the wire FOs walk at speed "slow", it is best to use them from set up locations with LOS to where you expect to fire. Repositioning along a completely covered route others have advanced safely over is possible, but tends to greatly delay effective fire missions if the route is of any length. Like, until the second half of a typical battle.
