Telfare enters service, MAG-58 replaces M-73 as coax MG (

), and the Shillelagh missile hits something...

All this and more!

Hi,

Telfare..."accurate to ranges of 1600m"...HA! Maybe with a new M2 with still-tight tolerances. With the half-worn out M2s in service with most of the Army, you were lucky to hit a full-size target twice in a row at 800m! Since the M2 is an "area-effect" MG...well, what did we expect? Rolling Eyes

And I see that the "Duck Hunters" were worrying about their relevance even back then. Using Hercules rockets in surfance-to-surface mode...talk about expensive artillery shells! Shocked

Neat find, Doug!

Using Telefare at 1600m is actually like a 'call for fire' excersise.

Unfortunately it was actually used, during training ammo shortages as a replacement, which it is not!! Rolling Eyes
