That is you can reload an unlimited number of times (far more than the vehicle's internal volume) by just going back over and over again - assuming the Infantry team survives that long.<br /><br />Its not limited to say one second line of TOW ammunition per TOW team (suspect tracking this for all sorts of dismounts would generate a bit of an overhead.<br /><br />The same simplification applies to:<br /><br />Rifle team<br />MG team<br />AGL team<br />ATGM team<br />Small calibre mortars<br />etc.<br />Gibsonmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16844006300114061136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6055491912637469469.post-28139361636088873322014-07-28T22:35:43.539-04:002014-07-28T22:35:43.539-04:00Gibsonm: Good to know.

This would be a good way to keep ammunition flowing forward to the dismounts if so.NWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6055491912637469469.post-87320322854046924712014-07-28T21:18:21.805-04:002014-07-28T21:18:21.805-04:00Great AAR JC.

Infantry can throw their own smoke (Tab - like a vehicle), this may have helped the squad pulling back over the open ground).<br /><br />2. The TOW (or other Infantry team) can reload from their ride.<br /><br />So no need to go via the ammo truck. Scramble aboard the APC, grab the extra rounds from within the M113, emerge at the other end replenished.<br /><br />Good story though.Gibsonmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16844006300114061136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6055491912637469469.post-27953318704316509102014-07-28T05:06:02.448-04:002014-07-28T05:06:02.448-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Gibsonmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16844006300114061136noreply@blogger.com
