There's a M16A4 and 249 SAW in the marines pics and AK74's and PKM on those russian special forces, that PKM looks great, well everything does .

UH1N from the marines i think, i dont know what that truck showned in some pics is.

I think we could use some footage to see it all in action and motion and to see the abrams shoot that building to pieces, that would great .

The Chopper looks like an modified Bell UH1N

I think that the chopper ir British "Lynx"

M16A4 with M203... And look at the Huey exhausts. Strange? Doesn't look like any previous Huey. Otherwise, it looks like N or Y model.

[da12thMonkey 1943]

The chopper's a UH-1Y notice it has 4 rotor blades where the UH-1N has 2.

There also appears to be a Sukhoi 'Flanker' in the game. Not 100% sure what model it is since it's in pieces but it's most likely the Su-34 since that's a ground attack aircraft and the rest of the flankers are prodominantly fighters.

And the M249 in the game is an M249 PIP I believe.

hmmmm, no blackhawks in ofp2 ? I hope there will be BHawks, because i like how they look

Didn't the Gamespot preview say there were 3 roles to play? I think it was US Marines, US Army, and a special ops. So far we've only seen Marines, I bet the US Army part will have Blackhawks

We will get to play has a Marine soldier, U.S. Army officer and U.S. SF so its very likely that the Black Hawks will be present . I would rather play has a member of other countries army too tough, considering all three are U.S. and there is supposed to be a international coalition force in the game..

HEMTT?

Below the Huey gear (or whatever you call it), the 4 wheels...

And yeah, the plane must be from Su Flanker series, and is pretty surely Su-34.

But the Huey exhausts just don't match to N or Y model!

i dont know what that truck showned in some pics is.

The truck is an Oshkosh MTVR. I'll keep updating the list so people dont have to search through the other posts, as well as changing the wording slightly so it doesn't appear that I get all the credit.

Where is the image with a marine carrying an M-16A4 with an M203?

I can only see the barrel and hand guards/shields, whatever their called, there is no 203 versio at the moment, otherwise im sure they would have showned it to us .

[BlackScorpion 0]

Oops, seems so... Just had a quick look, at the barrel looked so large I thought it was a M203. Sorry. Thanks for clearing that.

Good question...is there a M203 compatible with theM-16A4? I know its able to use MODs like the M4 SOPMOD...

*EDIT*

Sounds like It can...

Quote[/b] ]Colt M16A4 Rifle is the fourth generation of the M16 weapon system. The M16A4 Rifle still represents the world standard by which all other weapons of this class are judged. Its combat proven performance is verified by the fact that over 8 million M16 weapon systems have been produced and placed in military service throughout the world. With a record that is unmatched by any other weapon system, it is no wonder that the U.S. Marine Corps considers there to be “… no finer service rifle in the world todayâ€.

Colt M16A4 Rifle, now in production, features a performance identical to the M16A2. Physical differences between the two weapons include a removable carrying handle with an integral rail-mounting system on the M16A4. When the carrying handle is removed, any accessory device with a rail grabber, such as an optical sight, can be mounted on the weapon.

The M16A4 Rifle barrel is designed to accept the M203 Grenade Launcher which can easily be assembled to the rifle offering the user both point and area firing capabilities. Also, all US and NATO rifle grenades can be fired without any supplementary equipment.

The new concepts of rapid deployment, mobility and increased firepower play a major part in the overall strategy of modern warfare. Increased emphasis is now put on small tactical units that are able to “get in and out†fast. Increased need for a lightweight, highly dependable, accurate service rifle with added fire power therefore exists. Colt M16A4 Rifle is the ultimate rifle in 5.56mm.

I wonder if they also added the "m16 unreliability" in OFP 2.

damn that would suck for MP..

USA's first objective would be to capture the enemy's weapons cache.

[Commando84 0]

the m16 reliability? nah maybe for the Early Vietnam scenarios but not in modern war, i think the new m16's should work better than old one's?

[simulacra 0]

They work somewhat better but they're not close to being as reliable as the AK47 or even some european weapons like the FN FNC and the HK G36.

The problem is that the internal parts in the armalites are constructed to be as snug as possible, and the gas system returns too much powder gas into the chamber which clogs up inside.

And with large amounts of gun powder that's being burnt this is a problem, the internal parts gets sticky and if sand or comes in something is bound to happen.

When gun powder burns carbon monoxide is "created" and it goes into the chamber, who here knows what carbon + heat + pressure produces?

Not many units showned so far but knowing that the Marines, US Army, Army SF and the ruskies will be there we can predict/speculate already what will be in the final version of the game .

Funny as the M16(series) beat out the FN FNC in the Canadian relaiblity tests AFAIK.

Problem is not so much the gun powder as you can fire 1000+ rounds throught an M16 before it jams. Actualy its because the gun runs best wet(lubricated, if you continuently lubricate it you can fire over 6000 round with out jamming) and then when it gets in contact with dust it is more likely to jam. Marines also now recomens to lub the rifle much less when operating in sand conditions.

Where exactly did you find BTR-90 on those screenshots?

[simulacra 0]

The problem is that the m16 is a combat weapon, not a match grade weapon.

I've stopped counting about how many stories I've read about armalites breaking down in the worst of moments, when ypu're out in the field it's not like you can lube the gun whenever you feel like it.

When I was in the service (Swedish Army, which uses a licensed and refined version of the FNC called AK5) and out on exercises it sometimes took 3-4 weeks before you had the chance to clean the gun properly, still ihad none weapon jams apart from when the bolt made managed to get a round jammed in the ejection port. (I even had that happen with an AK47 ::):)

I can't honestly say that I KNOW that the armalites are designed poorly and therefore are having problems because I've only fired some 100 rounds on a shooting range with an old A2, but I've read my share of horror stories.

And if you're studying the design of the AR-15 you see that the powder gases travel from the barrel through a feeding pipe into the chamber and THEN pushes the bolt backward unlike the AK-design which is a developed version of an old german design from ww2 that uses a rod connected to the bolt.

The old my gun is better than yours contest

Weapon care is required regularily in a combatzone anyways so the tighter tolerances in the M16 does not really make any difference for a proffesional army, as opposed to guerilla/terrorist type fighters who only need something that goes bang in the general direction of pointing.

The M16a2/a4 seems to be efficent as it is still in service and a cost effective alternative has not really surfaced.

And when it comes to such a sizeable army like the US, the money IS a large factor...not the only though.

Edit: another swede!

We use a FN FNC variant here in sweden (AK5 license built) and if i remember correctly it did not pass without flaws either, and is beeing built with looser tolerances for our varied climate, and we only have two types of climate to worry about.

remember..

The most lethal part of any warrior is training!
