How about a different perspective on the recent Gulf War?
Check out this US Marine Corps analysis of various weapons
used in the field, based on comments from Marines who used
the weaponry in combat. Among the many remarkable passages
are those about the failure of various communication technologies
to work together and that many jarheads found the M-16 rifle
unwieldy in the urban environment. Some Marines took to using
captured AK-47s during the urban phase of the campaign.
One amazing stat is the nearly universal engagement range
for small-arms fire, 20-30 meters.
Read this, before someone classifies it.
