[Suggestion] BRDM+Razvedka, Recon HMMWV+Rangers

[Raymond Saint]

In real life BRDM can carry small squad of 5, same for HMMWV, but that's not my point.

There's no point of recon HMMWV or BRDM now in the game, because:
— It's overpriced.
— Can't advance with tanks during armored offensive due to it's lack of armor.
— Can't hide as well as infantry... because it's not infantry. And will be one-shotted when an enemy'll discover it.

What I suggest is:
Put Razvedka/Rangers into it, so we can make use of it.

BTW, never even once I saw those one (BRDM/HMMWV) in the real battle. Kind of proving it's useless.

Well it's an APC isn't it... Its role isn't that of a tank. Even the Bradley can't be used like a 'tank'. Just use it right, like it would be irl ^^. You can advance it with tanks but you gotta make damn sure the chances of it taking fire are low.

Good idea.

I've always wondered why recon infantry can't ride in recon vehicles!

[Fullforce]

Interesting idea.

What would be really cool are Humvees with M2 mounts for line infantry.

hummer speed through offroad terrain is pretty sweet for flank monitoring drops. It's also fast enough to GTFO of places so you don't feed.

Alawys handy to have dismounted recon infantry and a infantry vehicle, but it would be costly though.

[trotskygrad]

should be with M3 Bradley CFV too, it carried 2 scouts or so.

I don't think I've ever seen you on the main forums before.
