@revolution, hast du irgendwo Infos, wieso die die MP5 nutzen?
für offenes Gelände (und eigentlich alles, was über polizeiliche Eingriffe hinausgeht) ist jedes Stgw klar besser geeignet, daher irritiert mich die Nutzung der MP5, vor allem da mit dem PKM gleichzeitig in MG genutzt wird.

Warum haben die Jungs eigentlich nur hinten ein BUIS drauf, vorne aber nicht (ist auf einem anderen Photo von Dave zu sehen)?

Nächste Frage: warum tragen sie Barette beim Simulieren eines amphibischen Sturmangriffs? Ich denke, die Antwort gilt für beide Fragen: weil alles nur Show ist.

Das sieht nur so aus. Das BUIS is vorne in die Rail integriert.

Fehlt nur noch ein Breitschwert. Hab ich vorher nie gesehen oder von gehört, dass das SEK sowas einsetzt. Macht aber durchaus Sinn bei solchen Fällen.

Dumm nur, wenn man es dann mit Streitkolben, Äxten und Stilett-Schwertern und zu tun bekommt. ^^ Eine marktübliche 150lbs Armbrust dürfte da auch durchgehen.

Siehst du die schwarzen Dinger in den Oberschenkelholstern? Mr. 9mm hilft meist doch recht zuverlässig gegen streitkolbenschwingende Trolle & Co. ...

Nicht wenn er sich von hinten anschleicht! Ha! ^^ Und von vorne könnte man ihn auch ohne Kettenhemd vorher erschiessen, kann man auch drauf verzichten ^^

Ist bekannt welche Stahlsorte und welche Ringgröße verwendet wird? Also, sind die technischen Spezifikationen der Kettenhemden bekannt?

Engineers from 39 Armoured Engineer Squadron (39 AES), 3 Commando Brigade, part of the Task Force Helmand (TFH) Engineering Group cross a bridge during construction over the Nahr-e Bughra canal in Helmand province, Afghanistan. The bridge, which is the largest to be built in Helmand province to date, is a logistics support bridge that is 4.2 meters wide, 45 meters long and can withstand traffic weighing more than 80 tons. The engineers of 39 AES completed the project in only six days, working close to 18 hours each day while wearing full body armor in temperatures reaching 130 degrees Fahrenheit. Before the bridge was built, there was no major crossing of the NEB canal. Locals were forced to use a narrow tunnel that could only allow small vehicles such as motorcycles to pass through. The width of the bridge allows farmers who live on the southern side of the bridge to take their cattle, tractors and other vehicles to their farmland located on the northern side of the bridge with ease. In addition to improving local commerce, the bridge also serves as a deterrent for insurgent forces trying to get into the community south of the bridge.
