The way we pull it off without unbelievable amounts of friendly fire is mainly by positioning and communication, not target recognition. If an element is out of place it's pretty much automatically assumed that it is enemy contact. We do this because it works extremely well, and with complete understanding of the limitations of this particular tactic ( I was a SAW gunner btw, so I would be the worst offender in a ff scenario, as the only person likely to be carrying a fully automatic weapon). Hilariously we don't really stress rifle accuracy anymore unless you're talking infantry, and the kids behind the keyboard on that missile platform were probably drunk and watching Buffy not but an hour beforehand. So many jokes about US soldiers but not a lot of appreciation for what they do, yes, even for you Brits (though as long as you aren't implicating the infantry I'm totally on-board with you, the rest of those fuckers are not squared away).
US missiles btw, are nasty as shit, who manufactures your missiles in the UK?
Shoot first, apologize to the widow later. If you guys don't like the way we play maybe you should take your ball and leave.
Intriguing... I've heard that something like 720 or 7200 bullets are fired for a single casualty inflicted, but I could be wrong. That sounds like overwhelming, unrelenting force to me.
