@ozzy1351 usually is armed with 50 cal or mk19 but there are some mgs strykers in each troop for reasons....some units dont know how to use them but when you know how to use the big gun, it can be handy....such as making doorways where there isnt supposed to be a doorway, blowing up shit....etc

@TheGreenSmoke Dosen't mean they can't though, whos to say they couldn't be outfitted with sabot rounds in a desperate situation.

in soviet Russia, Army strykes you!

@TheGreenSmoke ok, but if that was the point, why did they put such an overpowered and oversized gun on it? wouldn't a BMP-3-ish low velocity 100/105mm gun have fared better?

I'm so glad Canada scrapped the MGS plan and went with Leopard II's.

"third a sobot round can pierce any armor even DU plating which was proven back in the golf war"

The "golf war"? When was that? Right after the tennis war and before the baseball war?

CV90120 is cooler imo
