New Weapon System Known as CROWS II, Boosts Soldiers Safety

[hansen456852]

Just wondering:

The CROWS II keeps soldiers safe by allowing them to stay inside an armored vehicle, but what happens if the optics on the CROWS gets shot and possibly disabled?

NATO alliance last forever! Thank you USA for the marshall plan, military protection and technology/expertise, even though our political establishment officially criticise the US for political gain, Norway will always be US best ally.

Jens Stoltenberg er en mother fucker krigskriminell som kan smile så lenge Obama støtter han, men når mafia faller så vil alle de rundt mafia falle med!!!

I dont like that station, It makes me uncomfortable particularly because of the placement on the RG, And that I cant imidiately perform a functions check on any weapon if it goes down, which IS rare but still a scary thought.

The Kongsberg CROWS II RWS is produced in Pennsylvania

[justadirtyoldsock]

@KDC722 but designed and tested in norway :P

[brassas]

@KDC722 This weapon is developed and designed in Kongsberg city in Norway. It could been produced everywhere off course, and Kongsberg does :)

[hagenissepuler]

@KDC722 they also build it in Kongsberg, not only in the States... 2 factory in USA, 1 in Norway :)

[to88he]

Produced by the norwegian company Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace in Kongsberg, Norway. The factory name for the CROWS II is Protector, but the US army changed the name to take the credit for it.

@to88he Or, they just gave it a simple acronym like they do to just about everything lol. Kinda like the m249 SAW. Same deal there. Why do people hate america so much lol.

[killerbee2k]

@BDBK666 Because its politically correct to hate america and everything american in Europe. The irony is that almost all western Europeans love american music, food, social norms, youth and family culture yet pretend to hate america because of politics, its pathetic.

[BDBK666]

@killerbee2k Yea, that sounds about right. Not only that, but I love the fact they come on American YouTube, with their American invented computers, with American operating systems, on American invented internet, running on American servers, with color video invented by Americans, just to talk shit about how stupid, ignorant, and bad Americans are. Pretty damn ironic. (and funny).

[NsOSnipSU]

@BDBK666 Yeah.: Cause without america, we would all live in caves and eat rock for breakfast :S ALL hail the mighty empire!

[BDBK666]

@NsOSnipSU Yeah, or, I just pointed out the irony of the fact they come on our sights with our crap and talk shit about how stupid we are, when they wouldn't even be able to talk shit to us at all, if it weren't for us. So thank Americans for the ability to talk shit to Americans from Norway.

[BDBK666]

@to88he Not to mention, its replaced the CROWS l, which was originally named Raven SRWS by the American maker. Imagine that, they renamed the American one too. Must have done that just to take credit for it for America, from America? Those jerks!

[hazonku]

God dammit I told those fuckers to get rid of the stupid ass joystick when they had my unit do the first combat testing of CROWS. I want a PS3/Xbox style controller.

[Rizorn]

The Norwegian weapon company Kongsberg is the creators

[plopinoy]

looks so much better than the first CROWS! wish i had the chance to try that on my FOX when i was deployed!

[hazonku]

@plopinoy I used the 1st CROWS & the shit was cool. Joystick is stupid though. It's like an analog thumb stick on top of a joystick. If I wanted something like that I would have joined the Air Force.

[plopinoy]

@hazonku yea same here and i agree with you. the joystick was kinda stupid, cool at first but not my style. would've joined the air force for something like that - but i like my status as a soldier better
