We have already said that mortars are on the way.

I like the idea, perhaps as an insurgent balance to the mortars.
But clearly that video is fake since everyone knows that insurgents only drive toyotas.

I like the idea but I think it should be extremely limited and somewhat inaccurate yet it should have a pretty powerful blast...
Regarding the video look at the 1:05 mark, they all rush to put their shit away as they know their asses are going to get hammered in a minute for shooting at some coalitions base LOL..

I would also like to see the make shift half track arty pice from that one guys sig added to the game. It's not unrealistic for Insurgents to have arty they can call in on the enemy. In fact it's a real problem in Iraq right now because the insurgents have so many small mortors they use to attack US bases, and infantry.
Another thing I would like to see is trucks with rcoiless rifles mounted on the back of them. these would help out the insurgents to have somthing to kill tanks, or APCs with.

the idea is interesting. would need to be deployable kinda like the command AA but would have a limited amount of ammo, and probably could only be reloaded by a truck or something, or just left when its ammo ran out.
the main problem I can see with it, which is very aparent in that video is they look almost impossible to aim well. Most of thous missiles look long range missiles, well not really long range but afew kms, far over anything useful in PR since the max view distance we can do is 1000m (1km), like kashan, and ehhh, aiming a rocket like that for close range, say 500 or 600m, might just be possible but also how much damage would they do, and how effective will they be in the end etc.

Im thinking with a Good team you Could have a Civilian "Spotter" Like they do Irl to be able to tell where his Rockets are Hitting, and he can then Adjust. This is Pure Teamwork!

you always can scale down the angle /desviation/damage to fit it with the current maps, like the arty .

Pfft who Needs Ammo? We Will Stick Civilians inside the Tubes and Launch them at the Targets and killing them giving the other Team Ticket Loss!
And if we have to we can stick Rhino or Eggman inside if they need to get to the Local Hooker/Bar

I was thinking maybe it could be worked the some way as the insurgent bunker in 0.6 where the commander choses a location then the shovel guys build it. This could be the same with the rocket pad and onece its built it could just be used like a arty piece, or maybe put on the back of a pickup an can be oporated like a mobile arty type piece. It could also even try to bring down jets with it unguided rockets. Some people might not like this idea but i say if the US get the Javelin the insurgents should get something aswell.
what do u think?
If the US/UK get the javelin, why not give the Insurgents a Katyusha?
