Soldier classes - Need more info

[Birkoff 0]

OFP has several soldier classes, snipers, special ops, grenadiers, officer etc.

It seem to me that a sniper can carry less "stuff" than a regular soldier.

With that it mind, is there any list or info available on "specialities" & "limits" for each class ?

Like :

1) How much can each class carry of "whatever stuff"

2) Is any class limited in speed vs other classes, or how much is each class slowed down by more guns/ammo etc

3) Is all classes equaly easy to spot for the enemy or has certain classes advantages over others to stay hidden (like sniper & spec-ops)

4) Does all classes have same basic aiming skills or does it differ from class to class, if so how and how much.

Any info on such matters at all ? SUMA / Bohemia and info that we can use here ?

There's basically 1 rule in OFP...

If you can't carry it in the real world,

You don't carry it in OFP

But it isn't true the other way around: In the real world it is no problem to carry a Carl Gustal and 3 rounds for it - that is still impossible in OFP.

MP;

Well it's fully possible to carry more stuff with you in IRL than in OFP, like mentioned our snipers carry more than 1 gun. During service I've carried with me 3 "LAWS" or M72 as we call them (not reusable) and a AG3 and handgrenades + glock. My point is having an option to carry more than 1 weaponload and being able to choose what will be weapon 1 & 2 should be present in OFP aswell. Ok you don't wanna carry 2 carl gustav, fine take one and a m16 or m21 + carl gustav if the weight of all objects don't exceed maximum carry load for the soldier you play with.

That would ensure it being bit more realistic than now.
