The only reason Americans have armored vechiles is their not suicidal idiots who want to die and the U.S has been doing a great job and Americas a super power for a reason!
haha yeah they probably got the sniper NOT, they maybe would if he didnt have 10 minutes to go home have a beer, chill a litle, hear a bang from far away and go, "allready?" That gun is a sitting duck in the midle of the streets. if the enemy had just the slightest amount of military training, that gun would be scattered on rooftops, streetcorners and balconys.
@RepBosnaHercergovina ...and yet the gun wasn't scattered. Obviously, the enemy hadn't the slightest amount of military training. And the reason infantry always deploys with armor, especially in built up areas is to protect the armor.
@RepBosnaHercergovina in the event you have eye issues, look behind the vehicle prior to the round going off there is already a shell casing on the ground. the first round went into a wall that hes was shooting from ...dead the second round was a spotter....dead. last but not least " IF THE WORD IF WAS A FIFTH WE WOULD ALL BE A DRUNK AND IF I WERE 250 LBS, 6'6" AND RAN A 4 SEC 40 YARD DASH I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN IN THAT VEHICLE I WOULD BE A PRO FOOTBALL PLAYER LIVING IN ATLANTA
@RepBosnaHercergovina Do you think before speaking? Where are large trucks usually, other than the middle of the street? How would it be a sitting duck? Is some one going to run up to it, and put c4 on it? This isn't Battlefield 3 buddy.
@badboy4202 No, it is definetly not Battlefield 3, buddy. What makes you think that? I know what i am talkin about i joined the armed resistance here in Bosnia from 1992-95, i was drafted into a paramilitary formation, deployed in and around Sarajevo. The serbs used to do the exact same thing with their bmp-3s and t-84 tanks, once i was in a squad and we were gonna flank the gun, about the same position as this, it took too hits from our AT squads, we were using Zloljas, the Yugoslav answer to..
@badboy4202 AT4 rocket launcher, the entire crew burned up inside it and at the infrantry deployed with it was taken as POWs because their support teams pulled out like the cowards serbs are. Later the 18 guys we took as POWs we released for 21 of our own guys. So i think i have enough knowledge of urban warfare to last me 3 lifetimes. Its not my fault that the Iraqis suck at war, anyone who brings that shit to Sarajevo, will bring it out piece by piece later on.
The Stryker has had good success surviving rpg-7s in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Plus the Americans have much more experience applying close air support to the type of situation you describe.
The fact is, America messed it up. We should've gone for world conquest back in the early '90s, when the former Soviet Union was in chaos but *before* they sold all their hardware to anyone who could afford it, and we still had a massive military budget and public support to spare. Now it's 20 years later, we have no money, and the message has been lost (even if that message was just "let's get all the oil for ourselves"). Missed our chance. Damn shame. China's gonna get it now.

Gurkhas, the best, elite, superior fighting forces in the world.
Ferchrissakes, put a 120mm AMOS mortar-gun before somebody gets hurt. Like being in the vicinity of a high-velocity 105 going off.
Seriously, why a 105? Ask any grunt if he'd prefer to have a direct/indirect fire support organic to his unit, or a flat-firing 10 that is overkill for 90% of fire support missions. Plus a 12 round capacity? !?
All we need now to make this war interesting just like the Americans did for the Afghanis against the soviets... Is for someone to donate to the Afghanis and Iraqis some usable anti-take disposable launchers of the HEAT kind, and then lets see how easy the Americans go about stealing a nations resources... :P
you should be ashamed, invading other people's countries on behalf of oil companies. i bet there was no sniper in that building. probably a family home you decided to level for fun.
just glad America is falling apart at the seams - disgusting nation of pigs. China will be a better superpower for everyone.
@MustNotRead >implying the US invaded for oil. Ever hear of OPEC? It stands for Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, which Iraq was a part of. OPEC sets the prices for all oil leaving the Middle East, so to control the flow of oil and the cost thereof, the US would need to control every OPEC member nation, and I really don't think they've invaded Iran, Nigeria, or the UAE (among others). Fun fact, any 11th grade history book in the US could have told you all this and more.
What's OPEC got to do with using the tax-payer's military to invade a country, install a puppet government and then get the puppet to give you (and your oil company friends) the right to mine and basically own a country's oil reserve? You linear thinking is not only linear, it's 11th grade-like.
@MustNotRead I say again, the US controlled zero oil in that country, that is what OPEC has to do with it, OPEC controlled the flow of oil from when it was first pumped out of the ground to the second it was sold. The US could not have invaded for oil because if they did, OPEC would go to the WTO and the WTO would go to the UN, economic sanctions would follow and the US would be in quite the hole. Have you even read up on the event at all on a source that is not horribly biased?
OPEC are, like you say, are flow/price fixers. They squeeze as much profit for their "members" as possible, basically. And if you think OPEC represent nations, people and the consumer - you're living in a naive daydream. They represent the interests of Oil companies, who in turn control politicians, who in turn invade countries for their oil buddies and install puppets that will "do business" with particular companies oil companies.
Of course, there are many other reasons which contribute to the invasion of unwesternized nations. Most of them have to do with resources and enhancing the economic infrastructure for industry and corporation. NONE of it has anything to do with "fighting terrorism".
Anyway, I'm not getting into a dumb-ass debate on YT about this. You have your opinion and I have mine and you'd never convince me to believe your "authorized" mainstream version of events.
"Shooting with cannons at sparrows.", like we Germans would say. It's comparable to "Taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut.".
I wonder what happens if a real main battle tanks appears? Does somebody request a B-2 bomber from overseas at Whiteman Air Force Base or what?! Or what about pests like rats or camel spiders in the soldier's accomondations? Do they use Javelin ATGMs then??? Well, must be kinda funny i guess... :-D
I love it how the case of the second shot exactly hits the one from the first shot. So precise, they could place an empty ammunition box there, for easier recycling.
isnt it kind of a bad idea having a shell pop out like that? wouldnt it make the vehicle more vulnerable? and wouldnt it also be a waste of brass? w/e they use for shell casings?
Vehicle is basically fucked if AT larger than rpg-7 hits it, and even those can destroy it in one shot if it doesn't have the "batters cage" that you see the one in the vid has.
You have to have a shell to fire a bullet, which is the same principle a cannon uses and a rifle.
@tattat44 oh so the flap doesnt matter but its still a waste. the shell was originally stored in there somehow, why not keep it in there for reloading and saving millions of dollars?
same with guns. soldiers are only issued a certain number of clips//shells. why not save the shells, put them back in the clip pouches, and save money by reloading them?
i love it, random shooting, i guess instead of asking me your going to assume. random shooting means one shot but since there is a shell casing behind my vehicle already there must be a target, p.s i am overwatched by dismounts
Just anouther BS video. The lack of comm and any urgency indicate this was nothing but random shooting. The second vehicle coming in was just diddling along. It did not zip in and assume overwatch.
@mamypokopants In this video the already killed the sniper with a tank round they didnt film it though the round you just saw fired was just for good measure
it can penetrate the hull, M829a1 was used in Desert Strom, very effective aganist t-72, in 1993 Army fielded M829a2 and in 2003 M829A3 that easy defeat Kontakt-5 ERA used on T-90, so Russians start to develop Kaktus type ERA, which is currently only seen on prototype tanks such as the Black Eagle tank( t-95) - never seen or photographed.
I'd just like to say it sounds pretty unnecessary for such a huge gun to be fired at a sniper and that it took too long, sniper probably would of ran if they saw that beast.
the sniper is in a 2 story window in the back of the room, the kill shot had already been fired, before the gun shoots look behind it on the ground, you'll see a shell casing this is a second round to clear the room out of all other threats
@JointTaskForce23 No its not, When a sniper is taking shots at you, Its almost impossible to move without getting killed or wounded, The best way to kill a sniper is with Heavy Explosives or an air strike.
@JointTaskForce23 hey, its less destructive and cheaper then a JDAM dropped from a JET, witch they use to kill snipers all the time, but it ends up destroying the block
@JointTaskForce23 So you would have walked out there with your SAW and taken that sniper, eh? Okay buddy, whatever you say. Its people like you that would have made the Juba videos then thinking snipers are not dangerous enough to avoid all contact with!
PFC Lavena Johnson 19 raped and murdered by colleagues in Iraq.
The Army has continued to insist that the LaVena committed suicide by pointing her rifle with her non-dominant hand at the side of her head and set herself on fire, all after she beat herself up and poured acid on her genitals (since their was no apparent investigation into whatever happened there). Oh, and there was a trail of blood leading away from the tent where her body was found.
no you don't only when time permits. i had already fired a round before this one once i identified the shooter the second round was into the room he fired from to kill anyone else that may have been in the room that one i gave the dismounts on the ground a warning
@tankcommander33 im not a soldier or anything, but on this video, it seem that the gunner takes his time to fire the gun, doesnt it give more time for the sniper to relocate or leave the area??
look behind the mgs before sou start the video, see the tube on the ground, that round hit the sniper behind the wall looking though a hold about 6 inches wide. immediate threat is gone however there is a spotter in the window, we saw him and fired a round into the window.
be good if NZ had these to complement our LAVs. Makes me laugh how people are still compareing this to abrams even tho it is clearly slated for a different role. funnier still are people like nomorenarcicissm who constantly rubbish LAV purely because it is not tracks and believes the whole Iraq/Afghan problem can be solved with a M113. Just the sight of a 105mm gun turning up will make me think twice about acting up and I would not care how it rolled into town
people do not get this video confused. i have already fired a round into the second story window with positive identification of a male with a rifle at the back of the room. before i shoot the round in the video you will see a shell casing of the round that we killed the sniper with. this second round is into the window next to it that is how you clear a building with enemy in it. the count down is warning the dismounts that a round is going to be fired. they did not get a warning the first time
With the time lapses due to protocol, rules of engagement, countdown, etc., the terrorist had just transferred to another building, maybe two blocks away.
well 1. that stupid crew is my crew i am the one that fired the round 2. look behind the mgs, see that canister on the ground before the round is fired thats the initial round into the window, the second round fired is through another window. that is how you clear a building with enemy in it. the count down is for the dismounts on the ground. so you understand smash1 was my call sign at the time
According to official reports the "tinsel" around the Stryker is effective 50% of the time at stopping RPG's. The Army should have kept the Walker Bulldogs that Taiwan has upgraded. The Bulldogs took on and defeated T-54's in the hands of ARVN tankers. Bulldogs weigh 23 tons and the Stryker weighs 19. The Pudagon types need to get off of the nickle and buy an upgraded, upgraded, upgraded Herk, that would tote a real tank. 105mm gun but, could mount the old low-velo155 from the 551. TO-TALL!
You're right, your terrorist might get away if he or she has planned this right and had a guaranteed escape route that avoids bump into a US soldier or Arab ally with a rifle in his or her possession or get into silly animal carriage or auto accident or accidentally stumble into his/her comrades' minefield if he or she panics.
@ChrisinatorS Lol funny, but read the uploaders comment. The 1st shot was already fired and the guy was dead. This was a second one just to make sure no one else was in there.
i remember the 1st time i saw a stryker with a 120mm i was like wtf! im a taker so u can imagine my thoughts...anyways myself im not a fan of strykers ive seen alot of them stuck..flipt over..blown up..u take a 500lbs ied and sayonara!! nothing like a Tank to show how to really handle the 120!
i didn't think a 120mm was needed in urban warfare, i haven't got too much of an idea but isn't it like overkill? iv'e never been in a war, my country hasn't even got an army, but i wouldn't mind drvivng 1 of those babies..
calling in some A-10 warthogs for example during an ambush might not be all that effective, but i would shit my pants if i saw one, and heard the noise their gatling gun makes, if i knew he was lookin for me and my pals.
Not a lot of cover that could protect me from a vehicle like that either. Might make me want to stay home with my boomstick.
just my two cents but to let every one know the stryker mgs has armor thick enough to withstand multiple rpg attacks and its stable enough to with stand a ied attack the iv never heard of one getting stuck plus my uncle trained on them and they make u get them stuck guess what he couldent get it stuck in the mud no matter what he tried.
no only one abrams crew member was ever killed inside the tank, iv heard about one stryker casiultie but a sniper got him when he was lookin out the hatch

isnt it kind of a bad idea having a shell pop out like that? wouldnt it make the vehicle more vulnerable? and wouldnt it also be a waste of brass? w/e they use for shell casings?
Tagger24 9 months ago
@Tagger24
In short: No.
Vehicle is basically fucked if AT larger than rpg-7 hits it, and even those can destroy it in one shot if it doesn't have the "batters cage" that you see the one in the vid has.
You have to have a shell to fire a bullet, which is the same principle a cannon uses and a rifle.
tattat44 9 months ago
@tattat44 oh so the flap doesnt matter but its still a waste. the shell was originally stored in there somehow, why not keep it in there for reloading and saving millions of dollars?
same with guns. soldiers are only issued a certain number of clips//shells. why not save the shells, put them back in the clip pouches, and save money by reloading them?
Tagger24 9 months ago
1) Can't keep it in there, what if you need to reload?
2) Army gets a metric fuck-ton of cash and gives no shit. They can make a million more if it amuses them.
3) Soldiers are concerned with being deadly, not environmentally friendly.
4) Defense contractors get lots of scratch to make product, can you imagine if it was all suddenly reusable?
5) Catch brass? How? Issue every soldier a plastic baggie to attach to his receiver? Waste precious minutes scratching the dust for spent casings?

i love it, random shooting, i guess instead of asking me your going to assume. random shooting means one shot but since there is a shell casing behind my vehicle already there must be a target, p.s i am overwatched by dismounts

Just anouther BS video. The lack of comm and any urgency indicate this was nothing but random shooting. The second vehicle coming in was just diddling along. It did not zip in and assume overwatch.

What do you mean by t72 ? Russian ones, sure not. T72BM can stop a M829a1, so...
But a cheap monkey model or even worst, clone in steel, of course it will, at any distance
PATRONSKiii 1 year ago
@PATRONSKiii
it can penetrate the hull, M829a1 was used in Desert Strom, very effective aganist t-72, in 1993 Army fielded M829a2 and in 2003 M829A3 that easy defeat Kontakt-5 ERA used on T-90, so Russians start to develop Kaktus type ERA, which is currently only seen on prototype tanks such as the Black Eagle tank( t-95) - never seen or photographed.

I'd just like to say it sounds pretty unnecessary for such a huge gun to be fired at a sniper and that it took too long, sniper probably would of ran if they saw that beast.
JointTaskForce23 1 year ago 7
the sniper is in a 2 story window in the back of the room, the kill shot had already been fired, before the gun shoots look behind it on the ground, you'll see a shell casing this is a second round to clear the room out of all other threats

PFC Lavena Johnson 19 raped and murdered by colleagues in Iraq.
The Army has continued to insist that the LaVena committed suicide by pointing her rifle with her non-dominant hand at the side of her head and set herself on fire, all after she beat herself up and poured acid on her genitals (since their was no apparent investigation into whatever happened there). Oh, and there was a trail of blood leading away from the tent where her body was found.

spazoflondon 2 years ago
no you don't only when time permits. i had already fired a round before this one once i identified the shooter the second round was into the room he fired from to kill anyone else that may have been in the room that one i gave the dismounts on the ground a warning
tankcommander33 2 years ago 2
@tankcommander33 im not a soldier or anything, but on this video, it seem that the gunner takes his time to fire the gun, doesnt it give more time for the sniper to relocate or leave the area??

look behind the mgs before sou start the video, see the tube on the ground, that round hit the sniper behind the wall looking though a hold about 6 inches wide. immediate threat is gone however there is a spotter in the window, we saw him and fired a round into the window.

be good if NZ had these to complement our LAVs. Makes me laugh how people are still compareing this to abrams even tho it is clearly slated for a different role. funnier still are people like nomorenarcicissm who constantly rubbish LAV purely because it is not tracks and believes the whole Iraq/Afghan problem can be solved with a M113. Just the sight of a 105mm gun turning up will make me think twice about acting up and I would not care how it rolled into town

people do not get this video confused. i have already fired a round into the second story window with positive identification of a male with a rifle at the back of the room. before i shoot the round in the video you will see a shell casing of the round that we killed the sniper with. this second round is into the window next to it that is how you clear a building with enemy in it. the count down is warning the dismounts that a round is going to be fired. they did not get a warning the first time

well 1. that stupid crew is my crew i am the one that fired the round 2. look behind the mgs, see that canister on the ground before the round is fired thats the initial round into the window, the second round fired is through another window. that is how you clear a building with enemy in it. the count down is for the dismounts on the ground. so you understand smash1 was my call sign at the time

According to official reports the "tinsel" around the Stryker is effective 50% of the time at stopping RPG's. The Army should have kept the Walker Bulldogs that Taiwan has upgraded. The Bulldogs took on and defeated T-54's in the hands of ARVN tankers. Bulldogs weigh 23 tons and the Stryker weighs 19. The Pudagon types need to get off of the nickle and buy an upgraded, upgraded, upgraded Herk, that would tote a real tank. 105mm gun but, could mount the old low-velo155 from the 551. TO-TALL!

You're right, your terrorist might get away if he or she has planned this right and had a guaranteed escape route that avoids bump into a US soldier or Arab ally with a rifle in his or her possession or get into silly animal carriage or auto accident or accidentally stumble into his/her comrades' minefield if he or she panics.

i didn't think a 120mm was needed in urban warfare, i haven't got too much of an idea but isn't it like overkill? iv'e never been in a war, my country hasn't even got an army, but i wouldn't mind drvivng 1 of those babies..

a little intimidation is not a bad thing.
calling in some A-10 warthogs for example during an ambush might not be all that effective, but i would shit my pants if i saw one, and heard the noise their gatling gun makes, if i knew he was lookin for me and my pals.
Not a lot of cover that could protect me from a vehicle like that either. Might make me want to stay home with my boomstick.

also there are plans to put a 155mm on the stryker i doubt it will happen bec the 155 would jerk the whole gun platform back/up.
puremilitary101 2 years ago
just my two cents but to let every one know the stryker mgs has armor thick enough to withstand multiple rpg attacks and its stable enough to with stand a ied attack the iv never heard of one getting stuck plus my uncle trained on them and they make u get them stuck guess what he couldent get it stuck in the mud no matter what he tried.
but that just my two cents
