:What's the context? If it is said or on a sign at a friendly outpost then it may be referring to IED jammers which are installed on vehicles or carried in rucksacks. They emit radio jamming that interferes with wireless detonated IEDs, but also created problems for radios which is why they would need to be turned off when not needed.  --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 14:29, 21 August 2012 (CDT)

Looks like a Romanian AG40 grenade launcher.

Discussion

Anyone have any info on this movie? What's it about? Also, that Aimpoint on the SF guys' M4s is a CompM4, the newly adopted M68 CCO. The only time I remember seeing a CompM4 was in an episode of Burn Notice. Edit: And the guy with his RDS mounted on the carry handle has a 727, not an M4. Spartan198 06:23, 15 December 2011 (CST)

Not sure if it will get a wide release in the USA.

Also - that Dragunov is a PSL.

I'm not sure a French movie with French Special Forces would have success in USA, even if it's a good film despite a few improbabilities (use of a Super-Frelon helicopter, five of the 6 SF operators are officers ...).

Call of Duty in recent years has used the British SAS as pretty much the main event, yet it found success. Not to mention Medal of Honor 2010 and Six Days in Fallujah drawing significant criticism for focusing on the US military instead of going "international". Personally, I'm less interested in who they are than I am whether or not it's a good movie. Spartan198 03:11, 11 March 2012 (CDT)
