    • Combat Engineer (Infantry Unit and his Vehicle), Minefields system and others structure (SUGGESTIONS POST)

      I given large shot, i has digging minefields units info from wikipedia.

      Combat Engineer can build structure: List:

      Planted Mines and removed Mines too. Combat Engineer can build bridge, Trench Line, Defense Walls, Anti-Tank Defense and Barbed Wire. And unit use 'Armored Engineer Vehicle.



      Anti-Tank Defense can enemy units to slowly it their speed.

      There has more info... i borrow info from wikipedia sites

      Combat engineers are force multipliers and enhance the survival of other troops through the use and practice of camouflage, reconnaissance, communications and other services. These include the construction of roads, bridges, field fortifications, obstacles and the construction and running of water points. In these roles, combat engineers use a wide variety of hand and power tools. They are also responsible for construction rigging, the use of explosives, and the carrying out of demolitions, obstacle clearance, and obstacle construction, assault of fortifications, use of assault boats in water obstacle crossings, helipad construction, general construction, route reconnaissance and road reconnaissance, and erecting communication installations. Combat engineers build and run water distribution points, carrying out water filtration, and NBC decontamination when necessary, and storage prior to distribution.
      Guns are always loaded.

    • All these role activities and technologies are divided into several areas of combat engineering:

      Mobility Improving the ability of one's own force to move around the battlefield. Combat engineers typically support this role through reduction of enemy obstacles which include point and row minefields, anti-tank ditches, wire obstacles, concrete and metal anti-vehicle barriers, and Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) and wall and door breaching in urban terrain. Mechanized combat engineer units (don't mixed with Mechanized Infantry unit, it's not are part of Combat Engineering unit) also have armored vehicles capable of laying short bridges for limited gap-crossing.

      Clearing terrain obstacles
      Overcoming trenches and ditches
      Opening routes for armored fighting vehicles
      Constructing roads and bridges
      Route clearance

      Countermobility Building obstacles to prevent the enemy from moving around the battlefield. Destroying bridges, blocking roads, creating airstrips, digging trenches, etc. Can also include planting land mines and anti-handling devices when authorized and directed to do so.
      Guns are always loaded.
    • Explosive material handling The placement of land mines to create minefields and their maintenance and removal.

      Clearing fields of land mines
      Demolition

      Assault

      Defense structures Building structures which enable one's own soldiers to survive on the battlefield. Examples include trenches, bunkers, shelters, and armored vehicle fighting positions

      Defensive fortifications are designed to prevent intrusion into the inner works by infantry. For minor defensive locations these may only consist of simple walls and ditches. The design principle is to slow down the advance of attackers to where they can be destroyed by defenders from sheltered positions. Most large fortifications are not a single structure but rather a concentric series of fortifications of increasing strength.

      Building fortifications
      Building outposts
      Building fences
      Defense against NBC weapon threats

      Eastern Doctrines: (examples)

      In preparation and conduct of combined-arms operations (combat actions) the Engineer Troops perform, among others, the following tasks:

      engineer reconnaissance of the enemy, terrain and objects;
      construction (arrangement) of fortifications (trenches, ditches and communication trenches, shelters, bunkers, dugouts, etc.) and organization of field deployment of troops (residential, logistical, medical);
      organisation of engineering obstacles, including installation of mine fields, production of blasting, organisation of non-explosive obstacles (anti-tank ditches, scarps, counterscarps, stakes, etc.);
      clearance of areas and facilities;
      preparation and maintenance of traffic routes of troops;
      creation and maintenance of ferries across water barriers, including construction of bridges;
      extraction and purification of water in the battlefield
      In addition, they are involved in countering the intelligence systems and homing of the enemy’s weapons (camouflage), simulation of troops and facilities, providing misinformation and demonstrative actions to deceive the enemy as well as to eliminate or reduce the effects of enemy weapons of mass destruction.
      Guns are always loaded.

      wut? i thought they can capture enemy structures and repair buildings and bridges
      They captured enemy buildings and bunkers > YES, and repaired buildings and bridges > YES.

      Minefield case come suddenly 'out of blue'.



      Very short warning time, alike this one. above. Major Escalations.
