Before Long Zhan and Sunny had finished eating, they received a notice to collect supplies.
After eating, the four of them came to the collection location, a mobile preparation hall transformed from a hangar, and saw a rather spectacular collection scene.
Said it was received.
It's actually self-service.
From various weapons and armors to as small as a battery for a tactical flashlight, the entire venue was filled with a dazzling array of items.
Whatever you want, whatever you want to bring, take it and match it yourself.
No registration is even required.
As long as you can put it in a bag and carry it, no one will care about you even if you carry 100 kilograms. On the contrary, no one will care about you if you don't bring anything, as long as you can survive.
There is only one thing that is a pity.
The main force participating in the operation is the Rangers. It is impossible for the US government to invest a lot of military expenditures in a peacekeeping operation. As a result, although there are many kinds of weapons and equipment here, they are not top quality goods.
The rifles only have the standard weapons of the Rangers, which are the M16A4 automatic rifle and M4A1 carbine.
The machine gun is only available in one model, M249.
The sniper rifles include the light sniper M24 and the heavy sniper Barrett. There are no special operations modified models.
Others such as night vision goggles only have a single eye, there are separate body armor and tactical vests but no bulletproof combat vests, grenades are all standard equipment for mass production, etc.
in short.
All equipment and materials provided are common goods for grassroots troops.
For Long Zhan and others who are used to using special warfare equipment, which is equivalent to eating delicacies from mountains and seas, these ordinary equipment are simply not worth mentioning.
Fortunately, when I came here from Fenty Base, I had the foresight to prepare a conventional combat package in advance.
The four dragon warriors only received some consumables, such as batteries for night vision goggles and radios, and ammunition for machine guns and pistols.
In the process of receiving these things, Long Zhan and the Rangers took the time to chat with their "new friends" in the Delta about carrying equipment.
The soldiers of Delta and the Rangers are aware that this operation will be relatively difficult.
During the day, we entered Aidid's lair, which was considered the Black Sea Hell and was home to thousands of armed militiamen. To say it was easy would be to brag.
but.
Because they are elite rangers and deltas, their combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of these militiamen, and they don't think the battle will drag on until night.
Even if it can't be done within half an hour, it can be done in an hour at most.
Then you can take advantage of the rest of the afternoon to go to the beach and enjoy some sunbathing.
Therefore, they all did not carry night fighting equipment, but freed up the weight of carrying night fighting equipment, and all brought more ammunition.
The amount of ammunition carried by the Rangers basically exceeds 13 magazines and about 400 rounds of bullets.
Bring a number of various grenades.
The idea is that when establishing a defense line on the ground, they can safely and boldly fire violently to suppress Aidid's militia until the mission is completed.
Win with superior firepower and avoid close firefights.
Long Zhan suggested that they bring night fighting equipment. Although the Rangers responded in different ways, the common point was to bring more ammunition.
Bring some equipment that you think is not needed, and have stronger firepower.
The Painters chose the latter.
After all, most people have a limited load capacity and can only choose one of them under special circumstances. Not everyone is as perverted as Long Zhan.
It's like a bottomless pit of burdens, carrying everything you want on your fucking back.
Wearing a heavy combat vest weighing more than 15 kilograms, he brought all the night fighting equipment, a tactical backpack containing medical systems, explosives, batteries, gun barrels and other sundries, and a row of grenades on the left and right sides of his chest.
You can also hang a magazine chest bag on the chest, two independent magazine hanging bags on the belly and back waist, and one on the left and right waists.
There is a 200-round magazine, and you can carry 9 in one go.
Including the magazine on the gun, Long Zhan carried a full 2,000 rounds of ammunition. The humanoid mobile ammunition depot was enough for a small team.
So how much do these bullets weigh?
It is equivalent to hanging more than 30 kilograms of weight separately on various parts of the upper body.
Counting things like tactical backpacks, heavy duty combat vests, pistols and grenades.
The total weight of all the weights on Long Zhan's body exceeds 65 kilograms, more than 140 pounds, which is more than twice the normal weight of 60 pounds for an individual soldier.
For ordinary people fighting with such an exaggerated load, although they can move, they will be very cumbersome.
I can't run at all, I can only barely hold on.
However, Long Zhan wore all the equipment on his body, and he still looked very relaxed, without any feeling of bulkiness and sluggishness at all.
Seeing Long Zhan's abnormal weight-bearing ability, everyone present could not help but admire him from the bottom of their hearts.
You know what it means to be someone outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world.
What is a "physical monster"?
Even Sonny, who also comes from DG and is also very strong, but is only a little over 1.7 meters tall, has to be convinced by Long Zhan in terms of weight-bearing.
Because in order to ensure his normal maneuverability, Sonny can only carry a maximum of 6 cartridges.
Moreover, his weapon is MK46, which uses NATO standard 5.56 bullets, which is much lighter than the 7.62 bullets used by Long Zhan's Mk48.
If replaced with Long Zhan's 7.62 bullet box, Sonny could only carry 5 until he died.
certainly.
Some people also think that Long Zhan is just messing around and wants to show off his muscles to show off his strength.
Like Hut!
As a rational first-level combatant, I advised Long Zhan not to carry too much weight, so as not to affect his mobility during the operation and suffer disaster.
Many people can carry a load of more than 60 kilograms, and they can walk with a little effort.
The problem is one of staying power.
The more things you carry and the heavier the load, the faster your physical strength will be exhausted.
Once you are exhausted and out of breath, your entire state will decline significantly, and you will no longer be able to focus on aiming or move effectively.
Carrying a large amount of ammunition not only failed to achieve the purpose of improving combat effectiveness, but had the opposite effect, causing a significant decline in combat effectiveness.
This is not worth the loss.
Hu Te thought that Long Zhan was holding on and thought that these problems would occur when the time comes.
It's a pity that he is still young.
Long Zhan's huge body and super physical recovery give him this kind of abnormal weight-bearing ability that ordinary people can't even imagine.
As early as the previous operation in the Red Sea, Long Zhan had already carried 1,500 rounds of ammunition and made a long journey through the mountains.
The whole process was effortless, even faster than others.
This time, the entire operation of Irene was carried out by helicopter, and the battle could be carried out directly above the target building, reducing the most strenuous long-distance journey.
Bringing 2,000 rounds of ammunition to participate in the action will not be a hindrance to Long Zhan at all.
on the contrary.
With these 2,000 bullets on his body, no matter how bad things happen next, Long Zhan will have enough ability to deal with it.
His carefully prepared and premeditated operation also required this huge amount of ammunition to support it.
