84 mm carl Gustav and LAW 72
I know the Swedes tested the 84 with 2 gunners with no hearing protection or helmets to see what kind of combat efficiency you get without.After some 60 rounds both loader and gunner were in effect temporarily deaf,had concussions and very disorientated.
I guess C:2 for direct contact with the blast stands to reason then .(being halved for every 8 meters out as pr core rules.)
I also think I will go to C:2 for the M72 based on the Aussie story and whatever little I have seen of it myself .
I would be happy to be corrected if anyone got anything .
As for the Soviet RPG-7 series ( the older versions are quite similar but with less caliber,different sights etc etc ) -I have a feel it gives a trashing backblast -but sadly never fired one .Anyone got any on this ?
Also of course the US "RPGs" like M82 SMAW or whatever it is called in real life ,the venerable "bazooka" -please try your hands on coming up with stats for me .
Next topic in the thread for those who are done with backblast follows shortly .(Anyone can start one though).
