Fa is awesome, if you can get it and also if the battery is registered. I remember in mosul with 1cav, the fa guys missed by a grid square. Not that they were given a bad fire mission, their guns were way off. Also on a side note, in 4id my psg&#39;s truck and crew were almost taken out by a bad 120 crew. Fell short of the target by about 400 meters and landed on the corner of a building the truck was using as concealment.
