Their mission is never to outgun, they are NOT meant to be warlords. What's next heavy naval assets? There is not a fine line here, just simple common sense. An MP Air Force would at most to consist of this: http://www.802u.com/ anything more is too excessive. |

the MP teams are supposed to operate similar to special forces A-teams not armored divisions. ie. the biggest thing i give my PCs for hardware is an M202A3 if you can't bring it down with a four-pack of WP and/or HEAT rockets you should have already been running away.

It is fun to speculate, but unfortunately a lot of MP talk seems to be more about hardware Pr0n than about what the mission would really need to succeed. More about kill tools than what the people and life in the 'pockylips landscape would be like for a team coming out of cold-sleep.

(1.6 m) Ground Clearance Turning radius same as tractor Max road speed Super highway ....45 mph Improved roads ...35 mph Cross country ... 10 mph Max. towed load. N/a Water Speed N/a Fording depth same as tractor Gradient same as tractor Side slope same as tractor Vertical obstacle N/a Trench .5 M Armor class Armament 105 mm Rifled cannon Ammunition None stored M102 Howitzer. Maximum range .................................................. .................................................. .. 11,500 meters Designated prime movers .................................................. .............1-1/4 ton and 2-1/2 ton truck (1) Is a lightweight, towed weapon, which has a very low silhouette when in the firing position. (2) Can be airlifted, dropped by parachute, or towed into position. (3) Employs a roller assembly and firing platform assembly permitting a 6400-mil capability. (4) Has a variable recoil system which eliminates the need for a recoil pit. Ammunition for your M102 howitzer is of the semi-fixed type. Most of these rounds have an adjustable propelling charge for zone firing, and the complete round is loaded into the weapon as a unit. The High Explosive Plastic (HEP) and the Target Practice (TP) rounds are exceptions and do not have adjustable charges. Semi-fixed ammunition is issued fuzed for all projectiles except HE, and sometimes WP rounds. Draw separate fuzes for these rounds. In Project use, the M102 Howitzer fulfills a defensive role protecting large scale assets like bases, depots, supply dumps, and refugee centers by forcing hostile groups far out of their effective range for small arms and light crew served weapons. Additionally the planners prepared for the howitzers to assist in civilian missions such as avalanche control and destroying ice dams preventing flooding issues. Illumination missions are prepared for to assist in dangerous, but timely rescue or recovery operations, in addition to support of MARS personnel disrupting hostile actors plans. Tactical CS is also considered as a method of turning refugees away from areas highly contaminated by radioactive fallout. The CS can be felt, whereas the harmful gamma rays are undetectable with proper meters. Last edited by ArmySGT.; 09-28-2013 at 02:16 PM. |

And was a part of some Green Beret camp equipment in Vietnam. I would like a more varied mortar section, and stuff like this for special groups. The M102 would make quite a dragon for the team to slay. An M226 60MM mortar has a place in light team's special item list.
