Summary

0002472: [Feature Request] Task Force Launchers: M3 MAAWS

Description

Since you've already introduced high-quality SMAW and AT4 models from Task Force Launchers, is it really a good idea not to introduce M3 MAAWS? It is used by Rangers[0] and some other forces, and it has been fielded to light infantry units in Afghanistan[1] after COs filled their operational needs statements.

Seeing how quote on quote "rare" this launcher is, it might be a good idea to only equip ARB units with it.

Since late 2015, army plans to equip one M3 per platoon.[2]

Notes
(0004958) Spookeh (reporter) 2016-07-19 23:26	The M3 MAAWS was added along with the other TF launchers, but was removed/hidden in a subsequent patch, probably for having issues or receiving a touch up.

(0008725) Tittoffer (reporter) 2018-10-27 22:41	Tested some config tweaks to enable it again, without any noteworthy results. Seems to be a couple of scripts that are required from TF47 for Illum and Smoke shells to work properly. Would love to see the functionality to be enabled again!
