akd Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Because every game needs some comic relief: By the way, the above is quite serious, is from current Iranian maneuvers, and is apparently being used on a large scale. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battlefront.com Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Those are Iraian Special Forces units. Another shot someone posted showed them being deployed by helo. I'm sure the two man on a motorcycle thing has some merrit, but the chances of them getting to use a twin blade helo to deploy them in combat against the West are really low.

akd Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 older: machine guns or even g3 and so on are not very accurate to get anything small from 1km away,no mater what their rate of fire.You can see the rounds come curve and go up or down depending on the distance. Motorbykes can speed in and out they jump they are thin and they are small. They got maney, they can even fire while they move at fast speed,one round and if it miss then another try till one is killed. Given iraqi performance,after the first kill they all run away.We had single units during the war where they ride two on one bike.Now we have brigades since they were so good. Infact i am confidant if divisions were adopted you would never need actual armour or stationary men to kill tanks. This was evolved during the war,they can be droped behind lines even by parachutes hit and then come home. The good thing about them is they have two men who can also drive,get two tanks,mount the bike on one tank,and bring all three back....lol.. -an Iran-Iraq war veteran 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdstrike Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Nothing really new... two-men/motorcycle tactics have long proven to be most effective against cameras, wallets and purses throughout the world's tourist resorts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me serious and that first picture don't go very well together. Couldn't they even paint those "bikes" in camo ? Driving around the desert in a red moped looks, well, silly... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
