Title: TOW carrying jeep - that would be nice
Post by: Ranger on September 29, 2005, 03:33:26 PM
Just found a link to that crap Chinese heavy jeep (I looked it up to see if they REALLY did use something that rubbish and  yup, they do!)...

Chinese Defence Today - Nanjing Troop Transport (http://www.sinodefence.com/army/transport/nj2046.asp)

But on the same page they had a picture of a ATW carrying version which looked quite interesting:

This would be quite a cool vehicle in BF2 - you could set up some fast mobile tank ambushes with this!

BF2 - Special Ops is coming out soon, and they won't say what new vehicles they are going to include (there are 10 new ones I think) - be nice if they had a TOW carrying Hummer, or a MILAN carrying Land Rover (for the SAS) for example!

...A mobile Stinger wouldn't go amiss either!

 ;)

PS - look at the shape of the truck in the above picture, does it remind you of anything? Isn't this the same truck that the soldiers used in 'Camberwick Green'??? Hhhhhmmmm....

Right lads...

Can't find a picture of the Camberwick Green soldier's truck...YET...

But I found the lyrics to thier song. So, next time you play China and you get in the little truck, please let me hear you singing the following:

(http://www.t-web.co.uk/parade.gif)

"Driving Along" (in an army truck)

"Driving along in an army truck,
In a humpety bumpety army truck.
The people wave
To the soldiers brave,
Who sing and shout,
As they lurch about.
Oh we are in luck,
We will never be stuck,
In our humpety bumpety army truck."

Strangly enough, the lyrics are very appropriate!

There were humvee-class vehicles kitted out with TOW type launchers in BF1942 - fantastic disruptor vehicles for AT warfare
