Ammo + supplies + GPMG + Law/javelin resupply
Ammo or rifleman kits have ammo packs, could this be used to supply a GPMG/support kit to give more fire power with less overheating (2 man weapon support) in the same way a medic heals in the new 0605 but using the ammo pack. Also for the heavy AT kit requires 2 men to use, 1 rifleman/ammo to load and the other squad member with heavy AT/javelin but awards better zoom and control fuctionality but limmited reload times.
Alternative - allow support kits to have a standard M16, ak47 or sa80 and the support gun only be used with the same functions as above, much more powerfull and a lot more ammo availabe only fires when the ammo pack is supplying.

That's cause all your ideas have already been suggested.
-----------------------------
The H-AT doesn't have a zoom IRL, so I've heard.
So you're suggesting, a GPMG Kit, which needs to be re'armed from a rifleman?
BTW, deployable Machine guns and machine guns teams has been suggested before, but not like this, so you might be onto something.

If you are reading this dont stop, cause if you do, I'll kick you in the balls.

I agree, this will surely improve teamwork.
Although, the US support class uses the SAW, which I doubt is crew served. It might work with the British GPMG (the one on the Land Rover co-pilot seat).
If the Devs have the time to model a M240 and a Chinese medium machine gun (if they use one), the machine gun part of your idea might be possible.
I might also work for the Erix but I have my doubts it would be that realistic for the SRAW to behave the same.

This signature is here due to lack of imagination.

Anthony Lloyd, himself a former soldier in the British army and a Northern Ireland and Gulf War veteran:
"The men inside (the APC) might have been UN but they were playing by a completely different set of rules. They were Swedes; in terms of individual intelligence, integrity and single-mindedness I was to find them among the most impressive soldiers I had ever encountered. In Vares their moment had come."

The current PLA GPMG is the 5.8x42mm Type 88.
It has partially replaced the 7.62x54mm Type 67-2, which is an indigenous Chinese design.
The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.

Yes , I was wrong . Thought Type-67 is a lisenced copy of PK ...Bob_Marley wrote:Our survey says:

Didn't know about Type-88 . Do they also use it as a new coax for armour ?
