What's a good border defense weapon?
I am talking about stationary posts/forts.
In my opinion M249 is the best fucking thing you can have, easy to operate, reliable, transferable.

What do you expect will show up and wanna come across, an SS Panzer division or a few hungry guys looking for work?
For stationary I would want an M2 or M240, the extra punch would be nice against fast moving vehicles.
Mk-19, make it rain baby.

I googled "81mm mortar" and the picture came up pal. Not my responsibility to actually look at the shit I post before posting it.
M2 or FN MAG
No but it would be nice
M249 has no quick change barrel. Neither does it have a barrier blind cartridge like .308 or that new dangled normamag cartridge.
If you're dug into a hardened target that is well known by the enemy, you're going to be shooting lots. Quick change belt fed is essential.
I do like the SAW ALICE pouch. It makes a Good possibles bag.

Pick one
Drones + artillery with guided shells/rockets. There is never really a need for short range saturated fire. Even though the absolute numbers of people crossing are high, they come through in small groups scattered all over the place and time. Just plant a small group of MLRS every 40 miles and use drones to spot targets for them and kill stragglers.
It's much easier to get shit done when your boss doesn't draw imaginary red lines you aren't allowed to cross and enforce unilateral bombing pauses.
That's literally a border

>mortars set to NSB and prox, seasoned with WP
No, it's an imaginary line between forest full of VC and more forest full of VC. For a border to be a border somebody needs to enforce it. Otherwise it's just an imaginary line on the map.
There was no fucking Cambodia on the other side, souther Laos and eastern Cambodia were effectively North Vietnamese territory.
What's the difference?
>mortars
>air launched rockets
No, dumbass. You're thinking too short range. Just use drones to pick out targets for MLRS Ukraine-style. That way more centralized bases in more easily accessible locations can service dozens of miles of border each.
One of these every few miles ought to do the trick.
Active Denial System seems the perfect optically neutral solution for the task.

I really hope Trump mounts these on the wall like more humane Nod obelisks of light.
