)So I took exception to this because all the information put forth in this thread suggests that the Chinese military does not use the B version.CH crewman: QBZ95b
CH SF: QBZ95
So technically, they ARE special forces. All the pictures I posted are ALL technically Chinese Special Forces.In PLA’s terminology, “special forces” or “special operations forces” (SOF) refers specifically to a group of small, highly-trained, elite ground forces units tasked with specialised operations such as special reconnaissance, counter terrorism, and direct action. The PLA has assigned one SOF unit to each of its seven military regions. Additionally, the Air Force (in its airborne corps) and Navy (in its marine corps) also have their own SOF elements. The People’s Armed Police (PAP) also has a special counter-terrorism unit known as “Special Police Unit” (SPU).

Cool, is it the L22A2 carbine? i think it was discussed in another thread but it would be nice to see that for the crewman. I said mp5 out of randomness really because I've seen a few pics of British soldiers with them, are they rare?[R-DEV]Eddie Baker wrote:Nope. We have a replacement in mind, but it is not yet modeled.
What the hell? Looks like Bob, Wasteland and Dunhunter all realising they've posted in a thread telling members that it's being locked but forgotten to actually use the "close thread" function[R-CON]GeZe wrote:

LOL! The Russians are currently fielding the AK-82. It has a self recoiling barrel and is the most accurate assault rifle to ever come out of the AK line. It has 5 parts, and is all black. It also shoots in full auto or 2 shot bursts. It was on the Future weapons show and It was vary impressive. Not only that the weapon was vary accurate. It can shoot over 800 yards where as the older AK-74 can only shoot up too 600 yards at max.ReaperMAC wrote:Same guy who said that the AK-101 replaced the AK-74M for the Russians.
I edited my post to include more pictures.Zybon wrote:But its special forces of the POLICE, not of the ARMY. They perform civil protection duties, not armed conflicts with other nations.
Like I said, they would of course use the regular QBZ-95 if the situation calls for longer-ranged firepower. We don't give them grenade launchers and sniper rifles just because theres pictures of them with it. They are used in a different manner from other nation's SOF (as stated on the sinodefense page) so they also have a wider range of weaponry to fit their doctrine.

It also uses both NATO 7.62mm and Russian 7.62mm rounds. The Best thing about it is that it is made from the same kind of stuff as the G36C line of guns and is rely reliable.
The only down side is it fire rate was dropped from 600RPMs to only 400RPMs. That was to give the barrel time to absorb the shock from each round. Still it's a weapon that the Russian mod team needs to add, and why they keep giveing Russians these old 8 year out of date tanks is beyond me! OIMG EA did not do it right lets make the Russians use old tech! NOT! They rely do have a BTR-90, and a T-90 main battle tank, as well as the GAZ from BF2, and the Havok as well. Though it was never mass produced, and is only used by the spetsnaz recon teams.
Still they want to give Russians BMP-3,s and old T80Us? Those are both **** and so old it's not even funny!
Haha indeed. That pic is being saved.S**t. Teamkill.
^^just had to do that. Sorry.^^
But why would we want to use a vBF2 model instead of a PR one?Zybon wrote:Alright, well after finding this page which is bluntly captioned "QBZ95B short-barrel carbine, which did not enter operational service"
I don't think the crewman should have it either.
So now I would change the argument to keep the carbine version just for the sake of variety and with the understanding that the game takes place in the near future. An actual conflict may prompt unused weapons to enter operational service.
