I think these are the same machines you seen in movies like "[[The Rock]]" which are, in fact, AH-1 airframes with all the weapons/weapons mounts removed. I remember seeing an article on a "news magazine" show which discussed sales of military surplus gear to civilians including the Cobras. The guy who bought them was able to buy the mounting brackets for the [[TOW]] system despite them not, supposedly being openly available. The point is the M197 cannon are probably mock ups as well. --[[User:Charon68|Charon68]] 19:55, 19 October 2011 (CDT) | I think these are the same machines you seen in movies like "[[The Rock]]" which are, in fact, AH-1 airframes with all the weapons/weapons mounts removed.

Re: A wounded Captain Walden lies with Monfriez's FN C9. You will note that there is a green 200 round drum attached indicating blank cartridges. A black drum would indicate live 4 ball 1 tracer (4B1T). Her Beretta is also visible. Having served in the US Army, every blank drum I used was black, and every live drum was green.
Fake Abrams
It looks like the fake Abrams has a fake CITV (the round thing in front of the loader's hatch.) That means it's supposed to be a fake M1A2, which weren't produced until after the war. --Funkychinaman 21:07, 4 July 2011 (CDT)
- I think it's actually supposed to be a spare half-roadwheel. Tamiya's M1A1 Abrams with mine plough tells you to put a roadwheel half right there: image of this. Evil Tim 21:52, 4 July 2011 (CDT)
- Evil Tim is right, it's a spare road wheel. ----X-Ray Bravo 6 01:24, 5 July 2011 (CDT)
