Neat detail about the BRDM and its specialisation to the forward recce role: it had a dead reckoning navigation system installed in it - there's a Czech military archive (VHU) video on their TH-cam channel that shows it in operation. Really cool piece of equipment, especially useful to have in the days before GPS where you might have good, accurate Soviet maps (that's a whole other thing - Genshtab maps in particular are works of art) but having a map and placing yourself on it are two different things, especially from inside an armoured box in low light or with a lot of smoke or destruction of existing landmarks.
This was really cool! Btw in case you didn't know, once you lased your target with the T-72M1 you don't need to re-lase it when moving towards or away the position and also, not for targets at a similar distance. For example the ridge line with the M113, there you didn't need to re-lase because they were similar away from you.
You used a word that is not a word in you overview. "Substained" is not a word, I think you meant "sustained." In the context of a reconnaissance unit, they avoid sustained, or uninterrupted combat. You might have also meant "substantial." Recon units definitely do not want to engage a substantial enemy force, since they are not equipped for a big fight. That being said, great video and great insight.

I wonder - NATO callsigns for friendly/enemy were BLUFOR/REDFOR, what were the Pact counterpart?
None. Pact did not use callsigns in that sense. Russia still doesn't.
@@Someone-lr6gu So what did they call them? Enemy? Opponent?
@@BarcelPL Just enemy/opponent. Yes. In russian that just the word "противник".
@@Someone-lr6guincluding dushman ?
@@OperatorMax1993 That's a nickname referring specifically to the Mujahideen based on the word "enemy" from pashto language, not a callsign.
9:05 you should've returned fire to suppress them
My gunner died.
@@PhanPhantasy bruh😓😓😓
Epic
Nice 👌🏻
But why didn't the enemies fire at you at the beginning
I fell back before they launch their ATGMs because it takes them a few seconds to fire.
@@PhanPhantasy I know but I think that there was infantry and a mounted mg on the m113 too so i tought they'd shoot with small arms
Idk
@@sbura_ infantry has yet to be aded to the game
@@tinchorb1340 ok didnt know that thanks
