[Zarvan]

we had deployed M114 155mm heavy arty ... those guns are ancients and were used in 65

Why soldiers mostly don't fire their Guns in fully automatic mode ?

He is firing at auto mode ... Only G3 is being used in semi automatic mode

With the current ceasefire in place, we need to continue our mission along the border while also keeping the Afghanistan notified of our actions along the border. We are already quite busy and will prefer for things not to escalate. The miscommunication and misunderstandings on each other sides not to be solved.
FC, as responsible for protecting the border has all permission to counter an attack on them on the border and give adequate reply promptly. And it has done its job in a fine manner.

It waste more ammo and heavier recoil mean rounds will not hit the target. Aim should be 1 shot 1 kill.

Can anybody tell what is the guy saying in the video?

On a side note it looked as if they were literally having fun. I mean there was just one mortar gun and a soldier firing with AK-47.

You see a 80mm infront of the light mortar...

That's just one position .. We have placed at least 10+ tanks on the border ...
Several APCs with 30MMs...

Each tank (according to WSJs interview) fired at least 100 rounds... At a target just 400 meters infront of them..

The afghan posts didn't just catch fire with small arms now did they..

honestly though.
I'd be pretty under the influence of fear if we cant see the enemy.
so i'll just throw off the bullets in direction with the sound is coming from.
if it wont kill him, atleast suppress em. lol

Also, lol at the guy handing the shells yell FIRE XD

 

[war&peace]

Instead of weapons, use power of influence to control them. We need peaceful borders on the west. Period.

I agree with you. The diplomacy should take the front seat while the military should be used as a tool to leverage our control on dialogue...always keep an upper hand in the battle field and then speak with grace, subtlety and point of vantage. It is easier to clap hawkishly and start chanting all sorts of things when we let emotions take over our brain but the long lasting solution will come only through a positive dialogue and that is what I see our military leadership is trying utmost otherwise Pakistan's response could have been much more stronger and devastating but that might had negative consequences in the long run.

Yeah i did see his documentary on the whole thing. 100 rounds indeed fired. I was talking about this particular post.
However if 100 rounds are indeed fired upon from each tank than the Afghans are probably lying about their causalities. I

Every soldier's aims. That's the basics of any modern Army. PA was used to Rambo carry suppressive fire. Which was fine for old days conventional warfare but now weapon reliability, accuracy and optics has rewritten the tactics of infantry. US trainers has been training PA for quite some time, but I think training curriculum have not trickled down to FC and other units. PA new rifle accusation is most probably is for same reason. New weapons are more accurate and can mount optics. As far as him sitting on top and shooting down is concerned. AK bullet max flight range is 800 metres. His bullets is most likely hitting the ground. Even at 650 to 700 meter, his bullet will not have enough penetrating force to do any damage. Machine guns are usually used to suppressive fire.

Are they Aiming???
