    @Mudkip Tehran is FAR from Egypt.

    @Mudkip But still, Tehran is not in Egypt. We were in Palestine, Kuwait, and Western Iraq before we gave the order for a general retreat to Algeria.

    @Mudkip The attack did not come through Egypt. As established, we got as far as the outskirts of Tehran. Only when he mobilized the Immortals and other elite reserve units were we forced to retreat against extreme overwhelming numbers.

    They wouldn't have used any rear line vehicles in combat....and the MBT-3 is our best vehicle for desert warfare, as far as tanks go.
    However, MBT-6s haven't been used by the NFK in years. They were all exported. The NFK has three major tanks; MBT-5C, MBT-8A/B, MBT-3 Kelvin. The Kelvin is currently in limited test service with the Mongol 1st Brigade from the FAD. They love the type and hope to begin phasing out the 5C soon. However, these tanks would have been in Asia, not Africa, as we had other things to deal with.

    @Mudkip We weren't in Egypt. We have retreated from Egypt long ago. This is probably the script for some propaganda.

    During Rising Storm, after the fierce battles in Iraq, Jordan, and Syria, we made a rapid and organized retreat, as it was never our intention to hold the Middle East.

    Also, we have never operated any variant MBT-6 officially. This was a variant we made for the NFK.

    The Prime Mover M3 is also used mostly with artillery units. A variant known as the M12 Armored Personnel Carrier features a revised internal layout. Although in operation during the time of Rising Storm, it was not used in North Africa.

    Also, the Paternian Army in North Africa does not employ tracked vehicles at all, with the notable exception of the M6A5 Ardent main battle tank and the M3 Skysweeper II air defense system, for use with the M6A5 Ardent. This is because in a desert, wheeled machines are as mobile as tracked machines, and tracked machines typically require greater maintenance.

    The units would have undoubtedly been accompanied by self-propelled anti-aircraft guns or would have been issued M35 MANPADS. Both weapons are perfectly capable of bringing down a jet. There was no shortage of said weapons, and the SPAAG would have been retained for its value in infantry support if anything.

    @Pilotmario THIS is what happens when you underestimate Persia and Awwam.
