Going to Afghanistan - General

you should stream it live.

[QUOTE=GunFox;22638018]I know A1's still exist, but I've largely been under the impression that they have been mothballed for the most part. I've seen one or two show up in pictures from 5 or 6 years ago, but none since then. But maybe we really are retarded and still field them. I can't imagine why. We have more upgraded A2's than should ever be necessary.[/QUOTE] I'm just gonna take your word for, you know a lot more than I do about this stuff. :v: The last picture I've seen was one from 4 years ago.

hey, if you meet a guy named mike who has a huge ass knife please friendly fire him, that guy is a dick

Why are you going to Afghanistan? could you please stop reaching into my pockets?

Yes RPGs are still a threat though.

[QUOTE=ProboardslolV2;22638400]Why are you going to Afghanistan? could you please stop reaching into my pockets?[/QUOTE] What?

It is your job to protect puppies from cliffs.

[QUOTE=Dan Was Boobies;22637562]Well I am going back to Afghanistan to serve again next month. It's really a 75% chance I will go. I'm praying to God [b] I will survive this time[/b]. This will be my 4th time serving. I'm pretty sure I'll be okay, I'm in an M1A1 Abrams Tank, But you never know what will happen. Well pray for me. I will make another post a few days before I leave to update you all. EDIT: Okay sorry people, I don't know what I am going to be in, M1A? Abrams Tank. Last time I was over there I was in an A1 as I stated below.[/QUOTE] I guess you died last time, did you get tactical nuked?

[QUOTE=Dan Was Boobies;22637562] Well pray for me.[/QUOTE] I'll just do something useful instead.

[QUOTE=Tymoschuk;22637756]Yes it is, they anticipate it will be in use until 2050.[/QUOTE] No, the A2 and A2 HUSK are the ones in service. All A1s are either used for training or are being retrofitted to A2 standard.

parody thread.

According to your xfire profile you're 15 years old. I can assume that's sort of correct since there's no reason to lie and make yourself of lower age. I can also assume you found youtube 2 years ago and you registered as an 18-year old, so you could view mature content at the age of 13. I can also assume you're therefore full of shit.

Thank you good sir for protecting my country!

being a dick is having a useless flamewar that is completely unrelated to the topic at hand. Calm down you two.

Good luck from the Staff Sergeant from Call of Duty Modern Warfare II.

Yes RPGs are still a threat though.[/QUOTE] The RPG-28, and the RPG-29, and in some instances the RPG-27, are the only ones going to cause significant damage to MBTs, and they are all very uncommon in the middle-east. The most common RPG, the RPG-7 will leave a scorchmark and at worst, a quarter sized dent.

It depends on the warheads, the warheads the russian army and the middle east use in their rpg-7's can take out a 3rd generation tank like the M1A2 Abrams in one single shot

You are referring to the PG-7VR. It is claimed to have scored a mobility kill on an Abrams by hitting the left section of the engine block. This has no reliable sources and as such should be discredited. Cite sources or be dismissed.

[QUOTE=Dan Was Boobies;22637562]I'm praying to God I will survive this time.[/QUOTE] wtf dude, did you die there last time?

Also OP, enjoy your entire tank smoldering because of the Abrams piss-poor protection against IEDS.

lol does anyone believe the OP

They use the same armor. Just because an IED or RPG can take out one specific tank doesn't damn it as a piece of shit.

Good job asshole. I agree with the other guy.
