[R3F] Artillery and Logistic: Manual artillery and advanced logistic (mission script)

[slay0rwr4th]

this mod rocks!, how much am I going to have to change in my mission when 1.4 comes out to implement it? or will it be the same just updated files? - Not that I'm worried, the tutorial last time was easy too

Awsome work again on the new comming update. But please dont bring it out before the MLRS and the GRAD are working. Oww and don't forget the Striker with the big gun. If you could have those 3 vehicels to work... It will be heaven.

Probably referring to the mortar carrier.

Hmm it isn't?? Than what is it for.. cause i could find no other application than shooting buildings with it. It's totally useless against tanks and gets shot really quick by RPG fire. I rather don't have this thing close where the battle is. And its pretty weird that it can put it's gun almost 80% up if it ain't some kind of arty piece?

But if it's not a arty piece than forget about it.

he Stryker Mobile Gun System carries a 105mm cannon, the same gun tube as the one on the original M-1 Abrams tank. This is not a tank replacement, but it gives a direct fire capability to support the infantry elements. The principal function of the Mobile Gun System (MGS) is to provide rapid and lethal direct fires to support assaulting infantry. The MGS is a key weapons overmatch platform to ensure mission success and survivability of the Combined Arms Company.

The Stryker Mobile Gun System [MGS] will employ four types of 105mm tactical ammunition. High explosive/high explosive plastic (HE/HEP) ammunition will destroy hardened enemy bunkers, machinegun and sniper positions, and create openings in walls through which infantry can pass. Kinetic energy (KE) ammunition will be employed to destroy a variety of Level II armored vehicles. High explosive, anti-tank (HEAT) ammunition is well suited to defeat a variety ofthin-skinned vehicles and provide fragmentation effects. Finally, anti-personnel (canister) ammunition will defeat attacking dismounted infantry in the open. HE/HEP, KE and HEAT each have or will have complementary training ammunition.

I think it's meant to be a simple infantry support weapon. Rather than call in artillery on a sniper, the MGS can deal with it, or if a light vehicle comes up on you, the MGS can swivel and fire. It's basically meant to be a heavy fire support unit inside of a Stryker Brigade, so that they can have a punch that can keep up with them, and is a part of their unit, instead of having to detail some M2A2s or M1A2s.

Fantasic mod.... .. thanks for the hard work..

Question... is it possible to easily turn logistic off and leave arty fully functioning ?

I commented out #include "R3F_LOG\init.sqf"... and the arty controls did not work.... will check again.. maybe a typo
