Summary

0000871: RPG reload too long/unreal

Description

RPG-7 reload animation is too long, never seen so long reloading of this weapon. Gunner have prepared ammunition, all he need to do is put rocket in the tube. All other mods/games based on reality, have speed of 4.8 seconds max to do so, only you putted it so long. I also tested US weapons - RPG - 7 have longest reload time - its not realistic that even javelin is faster. I seen many times on proving grounds RPG-7 and young man using it - even i was using it by myself - rocket is going into tube very easy, only little rotate of rocket is maked for being sure that missle is sitting well and here you go. no more than 5 second is needed. Off course on training on proving ground there was no ammo prepared - we was training with ammo preparation - but in real battle conditions you are doing this before go in battlefield, and putting your ammo in special RPG bag (inlcuded in your mod) - you can put there fully prepared ammo (size of space in bag is equivalent of RPG ready rockets). There is also RPG gunner assistant, but gunner itself is trained how to use launcher if assistand will be injured or dead.

Steps To Reproduce

Use RPG-7

Additional Information

Month ago i was invited by friend to see training of US army with Polish soldiers - I saw how much time javelin crew need to reload weapon - its way longer than in mod. It would be 10 or 15 seconds. There was fun to see javeling reload speed is faster than simply RPG-7 in your mod, but i hope you are gonna fix this. I will look for videos from trainings US army and Polish soldiers. They also was trained with TOW launcher - there must be some video....
