Humvee rear side windows are bulletproof?

Not sure if this is a bug, but when a passenger is sitting in the rear seats. You cannot kill them by shooting the side windows. This has happened to me more than once, the first time I snuck up on a crows humve. Emptied my mag and he just slowly turned around with the turret and owned me.

I thought it was only the crows humvee but this happened again when I snuck up on a humvee and tried shooting through the side window to hit the target on the other side and there was no effect.

So I assume only the windshield is the only non bulletproof window?

Pretty sure all the windows are bulletproof, atleast I've never been able to kill a guy driving a hmmwv with a regular assault rifle

I've managed it a few times with the main gun on the Technical though.

I will give it a go later today when I get home

As someone who rarely plays as BLUFOR on INS mode I also share the same thoughts that all windows on it are bulletproof.

I don't think the windshield is bulletproof. One time on fallujah, I was engaging a 2 man crew humvee. I threw my rkg and missed. They began firing on me from a fixed position. I snuck around and unloaded on the windshield killing the driver and the gunner by hitting his lower body thro the windshield.

The windows are generally bulletproof and are meant to be that way (it's an armored military jeep after all).
I say generally because every now and then you'll manage to penetrate it. Same for logi trucks.

I don't know how it works exactly in terms of coding (like there might be a 'chance' to penetrate) but that's how it is.
