Main Military Weapon of Your Country: Revision 11

[Bezombia]

Psychological terror?

M2A1 with a loudener.

Is there a point? .50 BMG makes people shit themselves if they ambushed a convoy that had lots of those.

Loudener makes it sound like a Vulcan, but Vulcans are even less practical squad-level weapons than Flamethrower

M2s aren't even meant for squad-level!

What is it with you and the kill joys?


And yes. But you can't beat that portable wall of fire for Psych out.

What beats a small wall of fire?

a guy with a bolt-action rifle.

flame throwers had, if I remember correctly, a 2 week lifespan in ww2, though that might be BAR gunners. Still they had a very short lifespan because its an easy target that typically advances in front of the main force.

maybe if your a poor country that only uses Toyotas for convoys.

however unless your attack hummers a US convoy is most likely just going to speed by, giving your location to a artillery or air support group to literally rape you.

[Purpelia]

To be fair flamethrowers would probably be a good thing to have around for when you run into NBC contaminated tiberium mutants that you need to burn after killing.

Or for general Ford antics.

Roast your foes, roast dinner. It's an all purpose tool.

There's a difference between impractical and impossible.

As Inclined as I am to agree with you I have...3? Battalions I believe, made completely up of Juggernaut class troops that carry vehicle mounted weapons

[DnalweN acilbupeR]

Supposing I had a shotgun and I needed to fire a bullet out it. Do not ask why. Could I make a sabot that stays in the shell even after being fired? ( read a sabot integral with the shell ) ?

...what?

You could already...um...er...you could use slugs in shotguns.

I need to fire a certain bullet out of it. Can the sabot be ejected together with the shell?

what would those be

sauce / pix?

[Yes Im Biop]

Then get a rifle to fire it.


And No. The Sabot stays with the bullet

you have slugs

use them

want bullets? use a rifle with an underslung shottie.

[Yes Im Biop]

what would those be

sauce / pix?

Dragons wrapped in APC Thickness armor. Strong, Powerful, Insanely well protected, But extremely slow. You can only do so much with Hydrulics

[Aqizithiuda]

...what?

You could already...um...er...you could use slugs in shotguns.

I need to fire a certain bullet out of it. Can the sabot be ejected together with the shell?

What kind of certain bullet?

The answer is still probably going to be no (because, you know, you need the sabot to seal the bore and prevent the projectile from dancing around inside the barrel), but it can't hurt to ask.

Touche.

Anyway, I'm going back to trying to design the M57. Some of you may remember the last time I tried...

...anyway, I've worked out some of the details now. It will be based on the XM79 prototype of Benomian origin circa 1981, which was in turn based on a heavily modified T44 prototype, of american origin.
That means nothing to you people. Will come up with specs and a pic later.

What beats a small wall of fire?

a guy with a bolt-action rifle.

flame throwers had, if I remember correctly, a 2 week lifespan in ww2, though that might be BAR gunners. Still they had a very short lifespan because its an easy target that typically advances in front of the main force.

and also, if you see an enemy division. one of the guys is wielding a flamethrower. who are you going to shoot first?
the guy with the flamethrower, obviously. hit the fuel tank and watch all his friends around him burn.

Unless of course they are wrapped in PA. Besides how many long ranged snipers are involved in Indore combat? Building to building is the only semi logical use for these

this guy knows

though it wouldn't be a division, a flame thrower would be assigned to a heavy weapons company i think

still silly and has been replaced with themobaric rockets for a reason.

want dakka? M202A1 FLASH.

A1? Did they make an A2? And who is gonna use a Thermalberic weapon Indore? Or against a Bush

[Purpelia]

We are still talking about the guy that is basically NOD right? I think it would make perfect sense for him to have each platoon be issued with a flamethrower attached for burning any contaminated stuff that comes out of a bordering red zone.

Who is going to use a flamethrower indoors? An idiot.

Indoors use a shottie or whatever. Against a bush you still launch rockets at.

[Sevvania]

then the guy gets shot in the pack containing all the fuel and goes up.

I'd suggest walking Wind Talkers to see just how nasty that gets.

If I remember correctly, the "flamethrower fuel tanks always explode when shot" concept is highly exaggerated. Getting shot in one of the tanks could knock you forward as high-pressure gas vented, but bullets tend to not ignite fuels when fired into them. Incendiary rounds, perhaps.

You shoot the FLASH at the building rather than entering it.

Even though the building should've been leveled by artillery to begin with...

YOu broke a Quote again Prem



Once again the Idea holds some merit (Not much though) As I use 100% 10mm Biopian Raufoss rounds XD

You still get knocked down and have to take it off.

YOu have to take it off after 10 seconds anyway. And you can get knocked down by simply tripping. I'm not seeing your point
