I think the closest PR can ever get to these are the PBRs(river boats) for US Forces on Vietnam maps. Though, it would be kind of awesome for maps that are predominantly water(Soul Rebel, Saaremaa,Pavlosk Bay) to have more modern attack boats(other than the RHIBs) that would add another dynamic to PR gameplay.

Isn't that a NAVY SEAL boat? Some new RHIB's for PR would definitely be nice.

US army had some in Iraq for waterway patrols. Iirc they were just armed versions of construction support watercraft.

Oh interesting. A small boat like that does look like an easy target though. A couple of bursts from an ak47 will probably kill all the crewmembers. I am interested in how they actually used those boats, speed would be their main advantage. Did they use them to board on to transport ships to check for weapons etc? (Like the PBR's in Vietnam)

Nope, just river patrol. From what I hear it was a pretty shit duty and you did it if you pissed someone off.Never really asked much more about it after hearing that.

When my unit (An AAV Company) was in Iraq about 10 years ago they used Amtrack Marines for River Patrol
