Tanks are not so effective in urban-combat. Look at Somalia, not even trucks/humvees were that effective in the conflict there. Or something like that oOo:

I think we will kick ass in Fallujah and I will be surprised if we get pushed back

Anyone have a video on the Insurgent's point of view.

Bull shit tanks arent effective, use those bastards for cover and if a house is pounding you, call in fire on that mother fucker. Doesnt matter whats in it, if its a threat its dead. Thats the Marine doctrine.

I am obviously assuming that all urban-combat involves small streets less than 10 feet wide. stupid:

gl to the boys @ Falluja...

i totally missed the "n't" in aren't in my first thread. That changes things now doen't it?

Tanks are very usefull in Urban combat.

i don't understand how it can be used freely when there are so many civilians around. Is this possible: "Hey, i saw some iraqi bad-asses run into that building over there. Let's shoot the hell out of it with the tank."

Dude in a mission like fallujah when the civilians know we are coming and they all ran the fuc kout, a tank is an amazing friend. Even with civilians.

I was just wondering if it was a standard procedure for the american forces. Hell, I agree with it if it will save our soldiers' lives.

Hahahaha stupid iraqi kids think tanks are vending machines and would expect chocolate and cigarettes out of the barrell

Kid: HEh, mom some crazy guy ran into our house wih a gun and theres a U.S. tank coming up the road
Mom: Lets leave
Tank: Bang
house: /life

maybe they made it out maybe they didnt. But that guy who ran in probably didnt make it out either. Chjances are thoug that the kid and mom would have heard explosions and gun shots and they would have let by then.
