ya, but crappy artillery aint that good either, some country mortar aint going ot help you out either

i think the best combo is mortar first line of artillery, light howtizer second line, heavy howtizer third line, and longrange heavy gun-howtizers fourth line

Redleg, you've forgot something! :D info


Redleg! STBTT K.08/02 here.

I've read through the past postings here, and I can see that there has been some discussion on the norwegian armed forces and artillery.
What seems to be forgotten are the small, but very agile force of first generation MLRS launchers that the norwegian artillery posess. These launchers can deliver highly effective explosives, extremely accurate in a very mobile manner!

So as far as I can see (without the MLRS launchers being an area of expanison for the Norwegian Armed Forces) you've forgotten about these. I've seen them in action, and by the use of bomblet rockets they're capable of wiping out a very large area with only one shot, moving to the next firing position before the rocket even hit the ground!

They are not forgotten, but it unfortunately looks like they are on their way out of the Norwegian Army now....

STBTT K.08/02, hmmm...
I believe I know your old platoon commander....

MLRS is fine for taking out a grid square. Not much use for accuracy or danger close though.

Oh yes? info


Yep! Lt. B is cool!

Things has really changed now, so it's not really much left of what I experienced up there...
...I thinks he's in BTT-N now. In what's left of the field survey unit.
