Russians, cold blooded?

but the US grenade launcher from WW2 still sucks, it did no damage for the tanks, and in Korea they did no damage too.

It did +5 damage to infantry units.

Grenades were primarily anti-infantry.

I don't know of grenades that could penetrate a tank's armor (speaking of a closed tank with hatches, not a troop carrier) in 1940-1953 that was issued to all troops. If you could get on top of a tank and open it's hatch and lob a grenade down, then that would be a way to stop it.

When you wanted to take out a full size tank, you brought along sapping charges, every country used these. They were very effective.

It's not loving Battlefield 1942.

Holy snakees!

$9,477,666,000 in matierials and parts is what the US gave to Russia in WWII? Including services that's apparently $11 billion :o

I always knew that the US gave a lot of matierial goods to Russia, but not that much D:

Holly stuff D:

Yes the 40mm isn't going to do any damage to armored vehicles these days, it's strictly anti-personnel

But the Russians went fully berserk when they entered Germany, and after the war demanded all captured German soldiers to be turned over to them.

He's talking about the bazooka, not the Vietnam grenade thing.

Russians made these.

Look up "US bazooka" they used those in Korea

Rekkudo said 40mm (which is not the size of the bazooka) so I think he was talking about something else. The Bazooka was used, but it was called the Super Bazooka and used HEAT shells and was better.

Don't forget the North Koreans used hand-me downs from Russia.

Yes, AK47s were created by a Russian. Now he regrets it, his creation is killing his own people.

North Koreans weren't armed with those until much later.

Yeah, thought they did. They only had Mosins and PPSHs etc

[Rekuddo]

Yes, AK47s were created by a Russian. Now he regrets it, his creation is killing his own people.

Ak47's were not issued to the Koreans, Primarily because they were a new technology that the Russian's could not yet mass produce.

You know what...

Rekkudo said 40mm (which is not the size of the bazooka)

Type of Round that was used in the bazooka was 40mm

He's talking about the bazooka, not the Vietnam grenade thing.

Yes 40mm, The other 40mm which was used in Vietnam was the M203, M16 attachment.
