Gameplay and Variants[]
The RHIB comes in nine variants, including one transport and one logistics variant. RHIBs, while vulnerable to small arms fire, are quite fast, with a top speed of over 70kph in smooth water. Between rough water, a moving vessel and moving targets landing accurate shots is a challenge. In addition, all armed RHIB variants are restricted to 90° of total arc (45° to the left and 45° to the right). Meaning, armed RHIBs can only engage targets that are in front of them. This makes them less suited to direct combat, but might be useful in suppressing infantry during a beach landing or in an ambush.
RHIB Transport[]
The Transport variant of the RHIB. It is unprotected and unarmed.
RHIB Logistics[]
The Logistic variant of the RHIB. It seats slightly less than the transport variant, but is also unprotected and unarmed.
RHIB M2A1 Browning[]
The M2A1 Browning variant is armed with a .50 caliber heavy machine gun mounted near the bow. Similar to it's land based counter part, the M-ATV, this this machine gun uses iron sites and has ballistic shield attached to the weapon. This variant is available to the US Army, United States Marine Corps, British Armed Forces and Canadian Army.
RHIB M240B[]
The M240B variant mounts the smaller, anti-infantry machine gun, the FN MAG. This weapon is primarily meant to be used against infantry and lightly armored targets, such as Logistics Trucks. This variant is available to the US Army, United States Marine Corps and Canadian Army.
RHIB PKP[]
The PKP variant mounts the PKP, the Russian equivalent to the RHIB M240B's weapon. This variant also sports a shield attached to the weapon that can stop small caliber fire that is larger than the American and Canadian shield, making it the most defended gunner's position out of all the RHIB variants. This variant is available only to the Russian Ground Forces.
RHIB NSV[]
