very nice rommel

Looks good.  Although usually SWAT units are armed with HK MP-5 submachine guns.  M4's or CAR-15's are used but usually only if no hostages are present and if neighboring homes are not a problem (like in a rural area) because 5.56mm bullets tend to go through walls and houses which isn't a good thing in a urban area.  9mm submachine guns like the HK MP-5 are generally used because their bullets don't over-penetrate.  In other words the bullets don't go through the target and hit hostages behind the target.

Also shotguns are often used as well.  So you might ask a mod if you can use one of their shotguns or make one yourself.  Various Remington's, Benelli's, and the SPAS shotguns are pretty common in SWAT teams.

I also recommend up'ing their armor levels a bit so they can take at least a couple more hits then average BIS units to simulate the heavy body armor they wear.

Nice, they look pretty good, infact they look just like the rainbows from Raven Sheild , I've always wanted to see them in OFP.

Good work...

Nice man, hope that swat truck is done soon, by the way im not saying you have to do this but its a good idea, maybe you could make a emergency service pack? Like police cars and police officers, Ambulance, and paramedics, and firefighters, the like. Just an idea.

Oh plz no addon dependencies. Mission makers can add every weapon to the unit by themselves.

On the contray, acctualy the MP5 is more dangours after the round has penetraded a wall than an M4. This is because the 9mm round is much heavier than the 5.56mm round which slows down much quicker due to the lower mass of the round.

SO generaly speaking the 5.56 is safer to use inside a building and it can penetrade bodyamour. This is also the reason meany law enforcements agencies are trading in most of thier MP5's for M4's and other 5.56 weapons.

Do you have info on this from somewhere??? I have NEVER heard of that.  Granted that while I have fired several 5.56mm weapons, I have never tested them to see how many walls they go through.  But I have always heard and read that 5.56mm is a very poor choice for home defense and hostage rescue due to overpenetration where as generally, 9mm rounds will not penetrate completely through the human body (depending on the particular 9mm cartridge).

As for body armor, it is is VERY rare that SWAT teams run up against criminals wearing body armor.  But thats why generally any well equipped SWAT team will have both SMG's and Assault rifles in the event that they do face an adversary wearing body armor.

At any rate, if you can point me to studies suggesting that 5.56mm weapons are ideal for this type of combat I would be very interested because that is the first I've ever heard of that.

One word...

P90

enough said...

[BlackScorpion 0]

Nice job! Now I can rework my old anti-terro missions even more...

Not to flamebait or insult everyone, but the uniforms look much like in R6... OK, OK, they're both special forces, so they should look the same.

Nice! Gonna d/l and test. Thanks.

[Sepe 1]

Hmm P90 would propably be pretty strange looking in OFP. The reason is the way you hold it, the hands are pretty near each other. This would require custom anims, and then... BANG! That AK47 looks pretty stupid instead of the old badass look.

[pajama 0]

Are the textures from Raven Shield? Because they look very much a like...

[Sepe 1]

One more comment about Raven shield, Rainbow Six etc. and I'll eat your head.

[456820 0]

hey

they look great but to make them look even greater you could try making there trousers look a bit more baggyer at them moment it looks like theyve got aload of padding down their pants.

Apart from that great work

[BlackScorpion 0]

That talk about P90... DKM, well, rambozo, has released one.

[Big Dawg KS 6]

10 bucks says they are raven sheild textures... when can we expect the terrorists then?

[CanadianTerror 0]

Well wherever they came from, they dont line up at all.

[pops-pl 0]

Good Job

[Sepe 1]

Yesh, I said that a P90 would look silly with the default rifle anims, and that proves it. But wasn't there some pistol-classed P90 out too?

[BlackScorpion 0]

Yeah... Can be found at OFP.org.

Quote[/b] ]Q. Isn't 5.56 too dangerous to use indoors?  Shouldn't I use a pistol or shotgun instead?

Virtually any kind of ammo, with the exception of light bird shot, will easily penetrate typical wall construction (two layers of wall-board separated by 3 to 4 inches of space). Testing has shown, however, that after penetrating a typical interior wall, a 5.56mm projectile will have less wounding potential than most common handgun or buckshot loads. This is true because the low mass of the bullet sheds velocity quickly, and velocity is its key wounding component. This doesn't mean that 5.56mm ammo isn't still potentially deadly, but that the severity of an injury is likely to be less from a 5.56mm bullet than from a 9mm, .40, .45, or #00 buckshot round. What is important is not the degree to which these rounds penetrate, but their "ex post lethality" or their lethality AFTER encountering wallboard or other cover/concealment.

The difference is so significant that the FBI and other ballistic experts recommend that law enforcement transition to handguns to "dig suspects out" of cover because of the superior penetration and wounding ability of handgun rounds over 5.56 or .223.

This, along with the increasing number of lawsuits from "friendly fire" submachine gun victims and 5.56mm's ability to penetrate ballistic vests, are some of the reasons that many SWAT teams are transitioning away from the 9mm MP5 and selecting 5.56mm carbines instead.

This is understandable given the longer barrel length and therefore higher velocity and consequently higher penetration of handgun rounds in submachine guns.

If our experience on the forums are accurate, most shot gunners and submachine gun fans receive this news poorly. It does seem counterintuitive since 5.56mm is a "high powered round." All we can say to this is that the FBI FTU fired hundreds of rounds through carefully constructed wall sections and then into gel. Ignore these results at your own peril.

And it is not only this site who says it you will finde info on this meany places.

P90 ha no good gun the small round can penetrade but the wounding capability is not good enough also the mag. has some issues, thats what I hear enyway. looks cool though and its small.

Eh, the only issue with the P90's mag is that it holds more and doesn't jutt out of the weapon? Besides the P90 was ment to replace the MP5 and other 9mm SMGs, not the 5.56 big boys...

Hi, i think that some SWAT addon units could use the INQ_Weapons_Paa, MP5, MP5's SD, M4's, M24, M14 & M16 + Mk23 all that will fit with some SWAT murderers. If i' know how... instead the HYK units model plus that UGLY BIS textures & boots model, i'll had mailed the Cpt. Moore to ask him to modify his FBI units, make 'em 1.75 (= add hand gun proxy) and i'll had swaped those 9 or 10" boots by the civilian boots model; and that texture it's easy of mod.

The 5.56mm over the 9mm... our guardia civil and our GEOS have began to change the MP5's for G36's C & H&K UMP; and they don't use to kill ppl (at least with the job uniform), i guess that the reason could be that, the over penetration "problem"; but far that i know... if u fire at someone that don't wears a bullet vest, the bullet gonna pierce that... tjo! luckless...!? and it gonna end in the wall behind.

P.D: I hope to never have a problem with the GEOS & over all the guardia civil, they'r mad. Let'cu

what if your using a 5.56mm jacket hollow point?

would that still penetrate through doors/walls or through people?

does anyone know if these guys have handgun lods?
