Crap Throwing Monkey Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Tommy, whatcha know about the NLOS howitzer? 683330[/snapback] Nothing. Although technically, all howitzers are non-LOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 Nothing. Although technically, all howitzers are non-LOS. 683382[/snapback] Well, yeah. When I watched the show on it last night, I was saying the same thing. Looks nifty. Uses active defense rather than armor. Rubber tracks rather than steel. Fully automatic and computerized. Not QUITE so nifty as that german gun, but nice nonetheless. Wish they'd had this stuff when I was a redleg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would hate to be the guy that has to keep them fed. 684304[/snapback] Of course, critics said the same thing about the M1 Abrams' turbine engine. Hell they said the same thing about the gatling gun back in the US Civil War: the North didn't indroduce it because they couldn't see how to move that much ammo to the front. Logisticians always find a way. Somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap Throwing Monkey Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 More armored tractors? 684347[/snapback] And they damned well BETTER be armored. We can't have unarmored trucks hauling beans, bullets, and gas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you idiots can keep on thinking you're important. BTW, did you finish fixing that sand birm down in New Orleans that you blamed Bush for breaking but because you can't design things it broke?
