The army isn’t made up of hundred of thousands of armoured vehicles flying at each other . That’s not how it’s done . The figure is about right . Leave yourself off , it’s becoming hugely apparent that you have no knowledge at all of any level warfare . As for peer level conflict ( I’ll give you that phrase for free) , it’s been a while since anyone has , circa 1944 ish ti be exact , so you can’t throw that herring into the pot . Maybe have a read of the sdsr If you get bored from hours on battlefield . I find you incredibly difficult to navigate , your completely a starter pack sme , the fact that people here have spent there working lives in this vocation , such as Ken , can easily see through your charade should show others your limitations . The fact you can’t see it , should worry you . take care , yours , searching for downed apaches , stiffy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
