arenelt90 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I would like to see Strykers in the game. Will that be in any of the upcoming mods for SB Pro PE, or will it be in SB2? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arenelt90 Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 Correction: M1127 (sorry, wrong designation) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outontheop Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 The recon vehicle? Well, the ASLAV-PC in game is a pretty good approximation; both are based on the MOWAG Piranha LAV (ASLAV is LAV 2nd generation, Stryker is LAV 3rd generation- there are differences in automotive and protection features, but to minor to make a difference in SB Pro; the main difference in the Stryker is in commo and situational awareness, which are not really represented in SB Pro anyhow). Both the M1127 and ASLAV-PC are armed with a pintle-mounted .50 cal M2... they're more or less the same in SB Pro.Now, if you want the M1126 Infantry carrier, you'll have to wait for eSim to model the remote weapon station (which they have partially modelled already).Me, I'm more concerned about the differences in ATGM carried by dismounts (current SB default is Dragon, which is basically useless compared to the modern Javelin) than I am about any difference between the ASLAV-PC and the M1126/1127 Strykers....though modelling slat armor would be pretty nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GH_Lieste Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 No, current default is the AT4 (the LAW M72 replacement).You can specify ATGM teams but they are not carried in vehicles. They can have anything from suitcase Sagger/Dragon through Javelin up to TOW class weapons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outontheop Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Even better... ok, then in 2.328 they were Dragon; I remember having a 1km range bubble and NO chance to hit any type of crossing target.The dismount teams are nice for defensive missions, but all kinds of useless when you want to move them up into firing positions several kilometers forward of the LD, don't you think? And I have it on good authority (firsthand experience) that there is a Javelin CLU and (in a high-intensity conflict, at least) 2-3 missiles on each and every M1127. As to the M1126s, not sure what the distribution is, but I think it's also one launcher per vehicle. Maybe every other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha6 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 anyone else think a STRYKER MGS would be fun? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpha6 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 that looks more BA then the STRYKER! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted February 15, 2009 Members Share Posted February 15, 2009 Classy Italian design, what can you say ... but the Stryker is better armored. It's not all in the looks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha6 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 you've got a good point... we should have talked with Farari when we made the STRYKER the fools 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aj88buett Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Has there been any new work done to offer Strykers in the game? They are such a huge part of the US fleet of armored vehicles. Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer_Leader Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Has there been any new work done to offer Strykers in the game? They are such a huge part of the US fleet of armored vehicles. Thanks!Have you tried Piranha IIIC with Lemur RWS (12.7 mm HMG or 40 mm AGL)? It's not perfect but I think it's as close as you'll get with the current version of SB Pro PE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aj88buett Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 They are close, especially considering the Stryker's evolution from the Piranha. Mostly looking for the Stryker series for simulation for my current situation. I am still new to this and need to really break in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apocalypse 31 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Holy necro- @Rhyfel Captain Ed S was an instructor for the Maneuver Captains Career Course at Fort Benning who was using Steel Beasts to demonstrate Company-level tactics. We'll see if he answers the ping to tell us more. It wasn't a school-wide program. I never got to use it, and has never been officially adapted by the US Army in any school, program of instruction, or simulations center. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bombing around the desert in his company issue HMMWV aside I'm sure he'd prefer his Jeep, but I'm not sure his insurance will cover "M88 ARV malpractice" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
