XM191 Napalm rocket launcher/M202 FLASH

[SolidT]

Is it any hope that we shall see that iconic 4-barrel monster in the future updates? It must be a super fun weapon. But tought to balance maybe. But hey, you can just give it to granade-launcher guys as primary weapon and just with 4 shots only, and give that to marines only(or somebody who realy tested that thing in fields) - I think thats fair enough.

Ideas similar to this have been discussed at length in these forums.
This game is about standard infantry weaponry.
We are not going to see experimental weapons that were tested in the war in this game.

M202 FLASH wasn't used in Vietnam IIRC. It was developed from a simpler prototype launcher that was apparently tested as a replacement for flamethrowers. If you do much reading on the history of the M202, you'll come across plenty of references to problems with size, bulk, reliability of ammunition, etc.

The M202 has reportedly seen some controversial use in Afghanistan recently, most likely in the hands of US Special Forces of some sort.

XM-191 was a Vietnam era prototype tested in Vietnam not good results. XM-191 never officially issued or produced in any numbers. M-202 came online in 1978 well past Vietnam time frame and was not as successfull as hoped as well

It's a shame, the M202 is one of my favourite weapons out there, to bad it was rolled out four years to late for this game.
