Litle more than a pipe with a triggering mechanism, this reloadable device launches a 80mm rocket out of one end of the tube at armored vehicles. This rocket contains a new shaped charge warhead that is much better a penetrating armor than traditional HE warheads.
This needs refinement. Allow me.
Design the AS-RPG27.The AS-RPG27 is a rocket launcher that fires 50mm rockets. It's a reloadable device that comes with shaped AT rockets and shrapnel rockets (tech gained from our landmines).
Highest priorities: Getting it to Very Expensive at most in terms of cost and reliability.An 80mm rocket launcher is overkill and would increase the weight of the RPG too much. It would also need a better propellant to carry it so it would increase its complexity. Our 50mm cannons have no issue piercing their armour and neither will 50mm rocket launchers. If you were curious, the RPG-7 is a 40mm rocket launcher.
I think we're doing good with fast moving vehicles for the moment. Our tank is fast, our armored personnel carrier is fast, our artillery can be relatively fast, if towed. Only thing that is slow is our soldiers, unless they get on a vulnerable bike.
A fast Armored personnel carrier, armed with our recently designed machine gun. Armored with spaced light aluminum armor , and powered with a simplified fuel injection engine, it can carry a small squad of soldiers (including driver) to combat lines at appreciable speeds. Tracked for decent all terrain performance.
Anyone who suggest putting a turret or rocket launcher on it will be inside during the Life fire tests
The advantage of the APC is that's mostly impenetrable for their smallish arms.
I watched Pentagon Wars when someone linked to it and I too was inspired to suggest an APC. After some thought, I deemed it useless.
There's no room for it to manoeuvre in the Jungle except on roads. On roads, it'll get destroyed by an enemy tank.
It's a wheeled vehicle and so can't be used in the Mountains.
In the Desert, it would get destroyed by precision artillery fire thanks to our enemy's radios. Also, infantry doesn't matter in the Desert.
BTW, I am little confused. Can we produce(expensive) radios this turn? We never got a message stating that. Instead it is - " Both of these are pretty complicated and might require some extra work to replicate"
Looks like we can't produce them without designing\revising.
It's a National Effort for us due to its complexity and its being a stolen design.
Um, hello, yes?
I don't know if I'm in position to do that but...
What about napalm? This could easily turn any Jungle into hell and when used against vehicles, things, like tanks, may get very hot.
Or actually, why don't we arm all our soldiers with matchboxes and tell them to start some fires?
Our mortars are equipped with incendiary rounds. If it was possible to start a giant fire in the Jungle they would've done so already.
