    I don’t know why the rest of the world thinks they can fuck with us.

    They must be stupid.

    If I’m not mistaken this rocket has a range CPE of something like 3 ft. Not bad for a long-range rocket. Wait till we get a 155mm autoloader on station. I would say to AQ, MMA, and the Taliban, if you think this weapon is something, wait to you experience MRSI in a battlespace near you. Talk about opening up a can of whoop-ass?

    The world can fuck with us because the weak willed liberals will run from a fight, Kerry, Kennedy, Reid, Durbin, and the rest will bend over for any terror state.

    Actually Dan, there’s a reason the Corps doesn’t use autoloading 155s besides the maintenance cost. Both the M198 and M777 (using the same tube, M199) are crew loaded and a hell of a lot faster with a compotent crew to fire than a Paladin using the same 199 cannon tube. Sustained rate on paper of four rounds a minute, closer to ten with the Marines of 3/11.

    Throw in counterbattery radar that can pick up anything larger than a .40 firing and the enemy is already in deep. The radar guys can relay the information back to battery at such a rate that counterbattery fire is in the air before the badguys shots hit the ground.

    Also the FMF guys I still know consider the missle system another shiny new toy for the MEF commander.

    Don’t forget they can’t launch counterfire until they get a POSREP from every friendly patrol. “Counterfire, Counterfire,Counterfire. Report POSREPS over.”
