Especially in dust tests the HK 416 performs better than the M4 (Source: http://www.armytimes.com/news/2007/12/army_carbine_dusttest_071217/). Real Life vs. Games: Battlefield Bad Company 2 calls it M416 (and many sites claim, it's a combination of M4 and M16), but this rifle is a complete new development from Heckler & Koch, designed to use parts from the M4 and M16 series. The HK 416 was developed by the german manufacturer Heckler & Koch with support by the US Delta Force. It is designed to use parts from other weapons (especially the stock and trigger group from the M4) and combine it with the new parts from the HK 416. Who uses it?

This is a very impressive and shocking video.Iraqi insurgents (or better: terrorists) try to kill the soldiers in a patrolling HMMWV. The IED (Improved Explosive Device) was placed below the asphalt. When it explodes, you see that the explosion is strong enough to ruin the street, but luckily it is not big enough, to harm the soldiers in the HMMWV. The camera of a soldier is set directly behind the front window. Anti-Air HMMWVs: A very new system is the Avenger "modification" of the Humvees. It's an anti-UAV/anit-air system. The Avenger is an anti aircraft syste, based on a HMMWV maintained with 8 stinger rockets. Now the US army tested a modified Avenger system: it is a HMMWV that carries a laser with a power of 10 kW (kilo watts).Th ...
