  • The video shows a mechanized infantry team fighting their way through a forest. A few things about this video:
    Nothing was staged, the guys I am playing with I met on the server and we teamed up on the fly just by using local voip. I did not announce that I would be recording a video, this is straight normal gameplay you get playing on public servers with random players. It is amazing how in Reforger gameplay produces realistic battles that feel like watching a modern war movie.

    Conducting standard gunship support over enemy positions deep in their territory. One of our birds go down. It crashed over on its side. All occupants are either dead or severely injured. Upon further investigation my gunner noticed what seemed to be three alive people. They’re returning fire as the enemy is literally rushing the position. Myself the pilot makes the call, maintain a holding pattern shooting the tree lines and any jeeps attempting to rush the position. We pass once and we land as close as possible to the crash. Three dudes pop up sprinting and screaming friendly towards the chopper. They get in, we take a a hit but manage to take off and coast back to friendly Airspace. Two of the three were fatally wounded. It felt like a movie

      After reading your comment I tested ingame, it appears the basic M60 ammo can penetrate certain areas of the BTR at close range. And the Armor-piercing can penetrate at farther distances however the BTR still has areas that are thick enough to stop even armor-piercing rounds.
      In the video I was confused because the incoming fire did not sound like .50 and still it penetrated.
