Hello everyone. Today we have a new media update to share which covers a different class of explosive weapons that one may find while patrolling the jungle. As always remember what you are about to see are Works in Progress and often prototype implementations. Diving right in, let us talk about C4 and Tripwires.
Composition C4 is a plastic explosive that is stable to carry and move around and can be molded into any shape needed (or desired) by the end user. Often carried by engineers, in Vietnam it provided a reliable way to close tunnels or clear buildings but was also often used to lay traps while out in the field. Players will find this weapon in the US Army and Marine arsenal.

The Vietcong also had their own variety of traps made using WWII-era anti-personnel mines as well as more modern ones provided by Russia and China. But one of the most common traps was the home-made Tripwire created by tying a string or wire to the pin of a grenade which would result in the grenade's detonation when the string or wire was “tripped” by passing a soldier’s feet or legs.

As always keep in mind that media shown is WIP.
