The standard weapons should be MG 4 machine gun (new development), assault rifle G36 (+40mm launcher), sniper rifle G22, MP7 for close range, P8 side arm.

That last photo you posted..is that KSK or GSG9 as there armed with HK23e and looks like HK53.

the whole german infantry is planned to be eqipped with the idz system til 2006 and til 208 the german mech. inf.
so there will be no special training. the units will train as usual.
and the g22 is already in all infantry and mech infantry units.
the ksk is equpped with almols every toy H&K has in its fundus, also fe the p22.
by the way the last pic are german navy divers "kampfschwimmer".

That's correct. They had nothing to do with the IdZ, but I liked the pic anyways

What are your sources for that?

I heared that from the "Gruppe Weiterentwicklung" in Hammelburg (The development group). I had an introduction into the IDZ system during a close quarters training last year.
But I think the time plan is to optimistic. Im sure that it will last longer to equip the whole infantry and mech inf with that system.
BUt i got plenty of pics from the IDZ stuff...
Ill post them this evening

Excellent.
It's the same old, same old.
It's not about what guns they got nowadays. It's how you train them.

pics of IDZ

all you need to have some fun in the park.

EDIT: I still like to know why the Germans never should wear berets!?!

Not in the hardware forum. Alos, I don't think the Germans have a problem with the training.

Hey Pollux, I rechecked and still couldn't find any reference about the whole infantry being equipped with that gear. I always only found the 40k figure. Are your sources reliable?
