Question lang wala bang smoke grenade yung APC and they use a hand smoke grenade instead?

[@davecaubang9803]

Sana sa susunod na Administration mabili itong mga armas na ito. "Shmel m and RPO-A" these are thermobaric Flamethrower Rockets para sa enemy fortification.The "Rheinmetall 40mmx 53 HV Airburst Munition" to eliminate enemy snipers.The airforce can use "Small diameter bombs" to lessen the collateral damage. Kung meron sana tayo ng mga armas na ito, hindi sana nasira ng ganyan ang syudad ng Marawi. Needless to say, infantry (ISIS) lang yung kalaban ng AFP natin, Pero nagunaw yung buong syudad dahil sa kawalayan ng tamang armas para sa tamang kalaban.

[@stuka80]

Very brave of that general, but he should stay back. If he's killed or even wounded that would be a huge moral victory for those traitorous scum that's fighting for ISIS while having a demoralizing effect on the Filipino troops.

Pero sa tatlong buwan bago matapus halos 51 pa ang mga namatay sa panig ng ating Gobyerno😢
