Seriously that thing can take a ridiculous amount of High Explosive fire for a civilian vehicle... IMO it is too easy to use at the moment.

had a round of Bashra in the scimi. Killed two Gary's both within minutes of each other with maybe 10 or so AP rounds, as well as a bomb car. in the end had to use HE rounds when Big Red rolled around, now that took a while to kill.

Just use the HEs to kill the driver, when hes dead then kill it, or just use it as bait.

Exiled is telling the truth, I was there when it happened.Th3Exiled wrote:Yesterday on karbala, Gary took a hit from our tank (I was gunning, AP loaded) and it only caused it to smoke. unfortunately the guys in the Humvee took it down before I could get a second hit in.
Also, I don't see how something can be too invulnerable; It's either invulnerable, or it isn't.
Exiled.
To be honest the fact that you can't shoot through the glass is a bit silly

It seems its lack of speed makes up for its heavy armour?

Unrealistic, a simple MAN truck wouldn't be able to survive that many rounds of anything above a 7.62 round I'm quite sure.PLODDITHANLEY wrote:It seems its lack of speed makes up for its heavy armour?
Hell a APFSDS tank round would punch through the engine block and probably through whatever wall or Insurgent that happened to be behind it.

I only smoke after sex, and being hit by a tank it seems. All this talk of killing meTh3Exiled wrote:Gary took a hit from our tank and it only caused it to smoke.

Its like saying we should make the humvee amphibious bcuz it has low armor.. :S No way a truck and the driver inside it would survive a direct heat round hit IRL.PLODDITHANLEY wrote:It seems its lack of speed makes up for its heavy armour?

It is very invulnerable compared to the M113 and other vehicles, imo.

It survives tank shells and TOW missiles and it could float, who made the code for this monster?Hitperson wrote:well remember it did use to be able to float and whatnot.

Its a construction grade Dump Truck, those things are meant to be built to withstand a lot.
I suggest setting up road blocks etc....

Military grade ammunition is meant to take our military grade targets.
IMHO the truck would lose.

A couple of years ago, there was an armored truck packed with C4 that was able to withstand fire from troops at a checkpoint and he blazed through and killed tons of people.
They do armor these vehicles...

was there an Abrams firing at it?boilerrat wrote:A couple of years ago, there was an armored truck packed with C4 that was able to withstand fire from troops at a checkpoint and he blazed through and killed tons of people.

Or an APC?
When heavily armed and armored vehicles can't take out one of these trucks, I see a problem.

From a gameplay perspective, Insurgents should not be able to charge with these things and not worry about the US ripping them up with armour. The damn truck already has a ridiculous kill radius (blowing up a LAV through 3 rows of houses anyone?)
