ma tra tutte le radio che si possono permettere, proprio la midland?? :sospettoso:

negli usa sono un pò + di manica larga sull'utilizzo delle radio, infatti le midland qua da noi sono sottoalimentate ma potrebbero tranquillamente "tirrare" molto di + sia come watt che anche come frequeze utilizzate.

probabilemtne a livello di squadra usano in questo caso la midland o cmq un apparto radio + piccolo e maneggevole e poi i capisquadra invece utilizzano anche delle an/prc 148 o delle an/prc 152 per parlare tra di loro, con il comando, mezzi a supporto, ecc..

McMillan Kitalong, a member of the Guam Army National Guard and security force member for the Farah Provincial Reconstruction Team assigned to Forward Operating Base Farah, Afghanistan, cleans off his gunner's turret windows during a quality assessment mission to evaluate the progress of the Sheik Mahmood Canal Road construction project in Farah province, Dec. 28, 2009. This is the third trip the PRT has made to check on the road's progress since the project began Nov. 12, 2008, and it was determined that the road is 33 percent finished with an expected completion date in the month of February 2010. After it is constructed, the road will bring stability to the nine villages along its 37 mile long route by easing mobility and encouraging commerce, as well as providing greater access to the Sheik Mahmood Canal that the road will run parallel to. The canal is the main source of water for the farms nearby.

While this is the largest annual death toll for noncombatants since the U.S. led invasion eight years ago, the report found that the majority of deaths had been caused by Taliban attacks.

ragazzi ma che tattici adottano con la multicam, sempre lo IOTV?
21/01/2011, 22:23

mi pare di aver visto un paio di foto con addosso IOTV di 2^ Generazione... ma ci sono alcuni scatti nei quali sembra che usino anche altri tattici che non riesco ad identificare... :s
22/01/2011, 00:56
matt mattock

Esatto Henry, il BA issued è un IOTV 2nd gen. e anche il Soldier Plate Carrier System (SPCS). Mentre, oltre ad almeno un paio di tattici (flc e un altro che non riconosco), il tattico issued è quello visto nella foto U.S. Army Pfc. Julian Colmeiro (5^ dal basso) chiamato TAP. Sull'etichetta riporta M.O.L.L.E. II Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment, tactical assault panel. Sostituisce l'FLC nel sistema MOLLE II. Ne ho uno uguale in UCP-D.

curiose quelle senza velcro
notare anche il lanciapatate nuovo
22/01/2011, 08:38

ero riuscito a trovare i pezzi in multicam per il nuovo IOTV, ma per ora sono prezzi ancora troppo alti...speriamo che con il tempo si abbassino :)

ero riuscito a trovare i pezzi in multicam per il nuovo IOTV, ma per ora sono prezzi ancora troppo alti...speriamo che con il tempo si abbassino :)

Si, li ho visti anche io, pezzi interessanti. Ma il vero problema sarà procurarsi un IOTV (anche di 2nd gen). Visto che la produzione e distribuzione dell' OCP è autorizzata solo per il teatro Afghano, quindi un numero limitato di truppe, non credo ci saranno così tanti pezzi sul mercato da far abbassare i prezzi. Forse un pò, ma non quanto vorremmo.

IOTV 2nd gen e SPCS non ne ho ancora visti sul mercato, sono molto recenti e le autorità americane stanno cercando di evitare che il materiale in OCP finisca sul mercato. E se dovessi trovarli rischieresti di pagarli veeeeramente tanto.
Le tasche e gli zaini ogni tanto li trovi, ma amche qui hanno prezzi leggermente alti.
La mimetica viene chiamata dall'esercito con la sigla OCP uniform cioè "OEF camouflage pattern". Ha più o meno il taglio della ACU, il tessuto è quello FR, ed esiste anche la combat shirt nello stesso pattern (qui sul forum ci sono delle foto dell'uniforme, basta che le cerchi). Qualche set lo trovi ma i prezzi sono ancora altini.
per la cronaca ho visto finire un asta per un boonie e un patrol cap nuovi a 100$.
Gli anfibi issued sono i Danner combat hiker boots. Molto probabilmente sono autorizzati anche i soliti army combat boots, temperate o hot weather.
Praticamente farsi un setup Us Army in multicam c'è da avere pazienza e tanti soldi.

grazie e hai perfettamente ragio, costerebbe un patrimonio.di repliche dell'IOTV o dell'SPCS non se ne trovano. per il momento mi sarei baasato s quelle. perchè come dici te è ancora difficile e troppo tempo dovrà passare prima di trovare dei tattici originali a prezzi abbordabili.

grazie comunque per le info
23/01/2011, 17:22

basta avere pazienza, anche io stavo pensando ad un futuro setup in multicam, ma essendo ancora troppo "nuova" aspetterò per vedere come si evolve la sitazione ed in base a quello che vedrò in giro, deciderò sul da farsi :) speriamo in bene!

Quote:

The secretary of the Army announced today that the Army will provide combat uniforms in the MultiCam pattern to all soldiers deploying to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, starting this summer.

This decision follows a rigorous four-month evaluation and reflects the Army's commitment to giving soldiers in Afghanistan the most effective concealment possible.

Soldiers deploying to Afghanistan this summer will receive fire resistant Army combat uniforms in MultiCam, along with associated equipment including body armor, rucksacks, and helmet covers.

The Army's selection of MultiCam for soldiers in Afghanistan culminates phase III of a four-phase plan to thoroughly and deliberately evaluate camouflage alternatives.

The Army took action in fall 2009 to provide two battalion-size elements in Afghanistan with uniforms and associated gear in patterns other than the standard-issue universal camouflage pattern (UCP). One unit received uniforms and gear in MultiCam, and the other in a variant of UCP known as UCP - Delta.

In addition, the Army deployed a team of experts to Afghanistan in October to gather extensive data and photos on the diverse environments of Afghanistan, where soldiers often travel through multiple environments in a single mission, from snow to woodland to desert.

The Army incorporated the information gathered into a photo simulation study it then administered to nearly 750 soldiers who had deployed to Afghanistan. The study asked them to compare six patterns against eight different environments. The results, along with surveys of soldiers in the two battalions who received alternate camouflage, formed the basis for the Army’s decision on MultiCam.

The Army will now implement phase IV of its plan for camouflage, which is to evaluate long-term Army combat uniform camouflage options for all soldiers.

Camouflage alternatives represent one facet of the Army’s ongoing efforts to improve the Army combat uniform. The Army has made more than 26 improvements to the ACU since it was first fielded in June 2004.
