Ahh the thrillz. A tip. Don't rely on others when intel is in question. You did that and got almost wiped out there. All cars from convoy failed and Strela kills a tank in the end. Thats luck.
Always have one guy from your group to go around enemy positions ( as civi preferably ) and in that way you will always know where bombcar targets are. Tanks, APCs, FOBs.
Also going in large convoy is not much effective. You get spotted quick and killed even quicker. Solo actions, go around and some more around, then stop, take your binoculars out and look around, wait some more. Then strike swiftly. By this tactic I managed last time on karbala to kill a striker, tank, wipeout large fob, and then another striker.

Re: Insurgent bomb convoy - glorious success
I actually recall fighting off a full bomb car convoy on karbala in the abrams due to my .50 gunner, and my main gunner being pretty quick with their weapons, along with the tank having pretty good speed.

We never did this again, mostly because we all hate Karbala.40mmrain wrote:I actually recall fighting off a full bomb car convoy on karbala in the abrams due to my .50 gunner, and my main gunner being pretty quick with their weapons, along with the tank having pretty good speed.

Strela? lol that was the bombcar I was driving in which the AA kit was in. Strela doesnt even harm a tank at all.MaSSive wrote:Ahh the thrillz. A tip. Don't rely on others when intel is in question.

I knew he would prioritise shooting the gary first (which I admit is where we got lucky as the first shot didn't kill it) and then the other cars before mine since I had the AA kit on mine, everything went according to plan

Re: Insurgent bomb convoy - glorious success
Well from the last vid ( one from BR file ) I clearly heard Strela shooting just before everything blew up, and there is no cloud effect like when bombcar explodes, not even the sound, so I assumed that it was Strela + ramming that killed him.Stealthgato wrote:Strela doesnt even harm a tank at all.

U sure Strela cant harm a tank? I remember I killed AAV7 with it on jabal with one shot. Not instantly but crew did had a time to bail and get killed anyway

Hahaha when everyone was in main I was just waiting for an accidental detonation.
And at 0.40 I swear I can hear Vince Vega from Pulp Fiction say 'lets do dis shit man'.
