    • armour of mechanized Infantry

      My mechanized infantry take in the last time to many damage from units they make only few damage on armoured units.
      In the description mechanized infantry has a armour like tanks. there is a tank symbol in the description.

      But on the map by the unit is an infantry symbol.

      What kind of armour have the mechanized infantry?

    • So, I have attacked a mechanized infantry with a naval air superior fighter. The mechanized infantry had only 2 hitpoints and the naval fighter have 1,5 attack power to tanks and 3 to infantry. My fighter needs only one attack to kill the unit. So I think the mechanized infantry has only infantry armour.

      2. test with 3 mechanized artillery units eastern doctrin(level 5) with attack power 5 to infantry and attack power 3 to tanks. I have attack 2 mechanized infantry (level5) that had only 45 hitpoints from 80. After attack there was only 1 mechanized infantry with 28 hitpoints. So my artillery had destroyed 17 hitpoints and also the armour from mechanized infatry is infatry armour not tank armour. But in the description is the tank symbol.

      I can t also detect the mechanized infantry with radar, but this is stupid. Mechanized infantry have heavy vehicles with armour.

    • Typically in real life, at least as far as western forces are concerned (my research has slacked in the last 6 years in some aspects), pretty much all infantry units have some kind of mechanized vehicle with reasonable armor on it. Even the most basic US infantry has humvees or some kind of armored patrol unit. I was in an Air Force Combat Security SF unit that was without armored support, but most Army units we helped had either humvees, Bradleys, or some other armored vehicles x2 in the unit. I covered my brothers national guard unit which consisted of 3 humvees and 2 bradleys (typically they had 4 humvees and 3 bradleys but one of each was own for their escort duty out of Iraq) plus 3 heavily upgrad Suburabans that had bulletproof protection that superceded their humvees. SO the armored symbol isn't exactly wrong per se...
