i think you should have to get a bridgeing tank to span the demolished bridge (to a certain lenght) this would replace engineer repairing bridges with a spanner.

We have looked into ABLV and are trying to figure out if it is possible to have a tank animate and deploy a static. If we can get it to work, then yes, im sure it would be put later!

You know, a much easier way is to simply make a heavy repair truck that you have to drive up to the bridge, protect, wait until its repaired and then proceed. Isnt it just as realistic to repair a broken bridge (albeit not by one super-human engineer with 10 arms) instead of bridging it with a vehicle?

occasionally it is, but in these battle like situations it would be more practical to have a temporary bridging point rather than rebuild a more permanant one.

Definitely agreed.

Actually the amazing thing about that is that they only have 2 arms and a wrench.
