he actually survived that, turns out x54R at long range isn't quite as penetrating as advertised
Were his brains still intact or is it he on a ventilator/insane now?
ACU is a cut and a material.
What you're assmad about is UCP, and no shill will defend it.
Looks like a glancing blow from an extreme low angle... Where the hell was he getting shot from and what does it have to do with camo? I'm surprised at this pint the entire armed services isn't wearing blaze orange..
>ACU is a cut and a material.
Even as a uniform it's utter shit.
t. wore the same set of BDUs for nearly three years without replacement, deployed twice in them. ACU didn't last one deployment.
Task Force Sinai (the American complement of the Multinational Force and Observers that guards the Egyptian-Israeli border) actually uses orange helmets.
He’s fine. I think he lost consciousness for a few seconds but that’s the name of the game when your helmet takes a dinger.
>puts on top hat
*AHEM*
FUCK UCP
FUCK MULTICAM
FUCK NWU
FUCK ABU
FUCK MARPAT
Source?
Absolutely based and woodlandpilled
Not defending it, I think everything after woodland and chocolate chip is shit, but I feel like he would have been shot regardless.
I thought modern helmets defended against shrapnel and ricochets and that was pretty much it. They'll stop a centerfire rifle under certain circumstances...?
Woodland cammies were too good for this world.
Just a graze. But yeah, modern helmets will stop 7.62
It's not a coincidence that the US military started going downhill and being plagued by PC culture when we abandoned our woodlands
WHY CANT WE JUST GO BACK
>It's not a coincidence that the US military started going downhill and being plagued by PC culture when we abandoned our woodlands
THIS
Under certain circumstances yes. This one probably hit at an odd angle and just skidded around and off.
I thought UCP was neat back in the early 2000's, but I was 16 at the time. Now it's god awful.
>go back to Woodland
You are like a little baby. Watch this.

My bröthers
But not the old Kevlar ones like you get from South Africa for el cheapo. Correct?
Probably not, either way I wouldn't test it. Even with modern ballistic helmets it's not like you're guaranteed to survive a direct hit from a full-powered rifle cartridge, but it doesn't hurt your chances. The primary purpose of helmets has always been to mitigate damage due to shrapnel and blows to the head from blunt objects/getting thrown around and whatnot
>The fucking Navy has a more effective woodland pattern than the Army
How does this happen
Sometimes the round can loop/deflect inside the helmet after impact. One if the purposes of the kevlar, although it doesn't happen often it does happen
So happy I joined the USAF when they were phasing the woodland out. I still have my woody gear and love it.
Yes. It's not likely but the angle of the helmet can cause the round to basically get rerouted once it hits the helmet and goes thru. We had a guy get shot in the back of his ACH, the bullet traced around the inside of the kevlar to the front and fell out. Granted the impact knocked his NVG mount into his for head and knocked him out, he survived
That guy looks like PVT. Joker
It saved his life. Eg, it worked, even if it looks like ass.
peak aesthetic
Literally no one defends ucp you just wanted to make a thread with that as the OP.
I love this .gif, that nigger was probly told a thousand times a turret isnt a god damn lazy boy.
Why don't they give them periscope to look around from inside their vehicle?
You ever used one?
They’re terrible.
>tfw six-color desert was phased out just before we had the war where it was actually useful
It hurts bros
When the head is exploded like that, everybody says it's a chill way to die because you don't feel anything, but what if having your brain separated into a bunch of chunks splits your consciousness into 100 pieces, all incapable of any thought or comprehension, but all screaming in pain?
Gif is not the highest quality but I think plinker went into his face instead of hitting helmet
>MFO
fun 9 months, paid for my car in cash, and was able to take a standard scripted tour of israel to all the touristy religious places for 5 days for $100. something i'd never do on my own time or wallet, as it sure as fuck wouldnt be $100.
first active duty unit to go there in 13~ yrs (national guard pog deployment previously), during the height of the rioting in cairo. we all expected hammas attacks, riot control etc. turns out in between 8 hr forcepro shifts and 2 week shifts out at the OPs where we literally had to come up with various things to count and track just to stay awake in towers, we just fucking drank, kayak'd on the red sea, went on scuba diving and MWR trips to fancy hotels (fancy for a run down middle eastern resort city that attracted russians in droves for some reason) and being bored enough to lift weights 2 hours a day and leave that place with a ~550lb deadlift
That's not how a brain works
No, shut up. Don't ruin my attempt at creepypasta with common knowledge.
if you can't comprehend the pain it doesnt matter
no u
gonna be in a similar position soon. sounds max comfy desu.
It appears there is some controversy over my superiority.
Guy in OP's gif died, The #1 killer in the sandbox is AP/API fired from a PSL.
Which is exactly what killed him, the full vid blood is pouring out his nose like a waterfall.
tiger stripe
don't you dare post that weak ass chair farce shit
Why are you responding to yourself?
Eat shit nigger
hewwo
He is talking about the camo, the first reason he got shot
>fuck MARPAT
Nigga Woodland is shit, enjoy being ripped apart by MG fire.
>the full vid blood is pouring out his nose like a waterfall.
Link?
I dont doubt he died, but you're full of shit. I've seen the full video and none of that happens.
His body collapses and another soldier pulls him through the hatch into the truck and then the video ends. Not once do you see the guys face or any blood
me me miss choco chip
Source or shut the fuck up, helmets won't stop a clean cut direct hit unless its extreme distance if you had actually seen the vid you'd know it was in a relatively close range urban/suburban environment and he went totally lifeless after being hit.
You can't just pull it out your ass that he "probably" survived in those circumstances.
estonianbros have kind of dark camo it seems. do they have any others? here in latvia we have our own variation of marpat (multilatpat and latpat). not sure about lithuania tho.
liar and neverserved
I didn't know Bill Cosby was a national guardsman.
Which is it?
He’s right though. I was in Kuwait when the crotch blew out from taking a knee. That was before getting to Iraq where everyone’s crotches continued to blow out. Then other parts of the uniform starting to rip. Whatever material they made them out of sucked
>what its like to chew 5 gum
He’s a Major General????
Based and drab pilled
YOU'RE BOTH WRONG! EDRL IS OBVIOUSLY THE BEST!!!!
The awesome Jews still using the OD instead following the goyim filth camoflauge trend.
I don't have any opinions about camo, but I don't see how this makes a statement one way or another. He's sitting in a truck or vehicle of some kind, I think he was going to get spotted either way.
It's because you jews are too cheap to buy camo fabric.
yeah helmets are pretty decent. They can stop handgun rounds at point blank and that round that him was moving pretty slow.
>550 dead
Nice lift Bro I maxxed at 525 so I know how hard that really is to do.
Most people have no idea what 500+ pounds feel like and don't really get what it takes to get that strong. From one Bro to another Bro....Thumbs up
No one defends Universal Camo you dumbass. Also does anyone know that aftermath of the helmet shot? A lot of soldiers seem to survive those headshots these days so I can't tell.
Whats the camo pattern got to do with anything? Even if we still had woodies or choco he'd still be just as dead, just a better looking corpse.
>Also does anyone know that aftermath of the helmet shot?
He dead
the girl behind Cosby a qt
there are a lot of girls in national guard for some reason. they're kind of loose, though.
Where do you think he learned his rape skills from?
>Olive Drab in 1776 + 243
Hold mine ale, good sir
ITT: people who think they know more about camo than the military
Only woman in that pick is the Latvian one
Even the airforce is wearing OCP/multicam. It's confusing and wierd as fuck, But it still looks better than ACU anything.
holy shit it took me a while to find the fourth guy
>Lt. Baldomero López

Those legs
Shit worked like a champ in AFG desu. Especially when worn and dirty
>ACU gear is super cheap surplus now since everyone hates on it
>acquire ACU pattern everything
it fills that perfect sweet spot of green pine trees and granite mountains in the sierra nevadas and long flat brown dirt of the central valley here in CA
