Rainbow 6 Team Member Loadout

[Agent47]

What do you guys think of a proposed Rainbow 6 loadout?

(As compared to all those OMFG Delta people...R6 is the more svelte approach)

 

Basically...loosely following the lines of the original Clancy novel and updating a few things for the future...

 

Black Crye Precision Combat Pants/Shirt

 

Black Crye Precision Armor Chassis or Black RAV or Black Paraclete Hard Plate Carrier

 

Black Shoulder pads, bicep protectors, armored collar

 

Black Rifle Magazine pouches, pistol pouches, radio pouches, hydration canteens...

 

MICH Helmet or Paraclete Attack Helmet

 

Liberator II headset

 

Hardcore loadout:

 

Landwarrior gun camera system

 

Artisent M5 Helmet (the helmet seen in most Objective Force Warrior demonstration soldiers) with integrated Landwarrior and bone conduction headset and flash light and laser

 

Weaponry:

 

H&K USP .40

MP7

 

MP5/10/40

UMP-45

M4A1

G36/XM8

SCAR

FN F2000

AUG

Tavor TAR-21

 

M1014

M3

SPAS-12

 

L96A1

AS 50

 

M60E4

M249

M240

 

and how could I forget the Rainbow 6 patch?

hey youre that dude from mp.net, well i like it but it would certainly cost alot

[doc_newstead]

I've played Raven Shield a few times, and it seemed to me that you could pretty much customise your loadout however you wanted. So that makes a 'R6' loadout quite broad. In fact, the loadout menu was about the only bit of the game I enjoyed. Mind you, in the book, they seemed to wear black mainly (as you've said), or that fruity night camouflage:

 

 

Though don't forget your pipe.

As much as I love the FN-2000 (and I do love it), I dont think that they would use it as one of their main weapons

[skyler8158]

In the book atleast, Rainbow was a fast reaction counter terrorist unit...I would ditch the bicep/shoulder/etc protecters and all Landwarrior/OFW related gear.

[Maple-Leaf]

I have to admit that I never finished the book - and I also got bored with the computer game (if anyone wants it, PM me) - but I seem to recall that it was basically black BDUs or SWAT coverall and a black combat vest.

 

But then, since they're supposed to blend into the local scene, I guess they'd wear whatever the local SWAT teams would wear (so as to keep their secret identity, well, secret).

 

I hadn't thought of using the Night Desert camo for MOUT before - but I think it would be cool, so thanks for the idea.

What!? Why?! As opposed to the AUG where lefties end up with a cheek-full of hot brass if they pick it up. Plus it's more modular and the Belgian special forces are now using it.

[ED-SKaR]

Rainbow has the budget of the entire NATO allience, these men and women are trained in military stuf, proven that they are good, trained in SF stuf, proven even more that they are just that good, AND THEN get transfered to rainbow. these guys are the best.

 

and NATO gives them the best kit, if that means an AK47 with a couple of 45 round mags gaffa taped together, then so be it. if it means an F2000 and a pair of Five-seveNs then they will be paid for.

 

they get the best of military kit

 

so how the hell can you do that in airdoft without blowing a couple of grand?

 

(what i really want to know is why the Rainbow bots are so rubish, my sister can fight better that them)

AUGs can be configured to eject brass on the left

Couple of dudes on the wannabe forums skirmish in it as well. They might come here, or not, I dunno

[Bert]

Going from the Rainbow Six 3 (Raven Shield) game, they wore:

 

Eagle TAC-V3 vests

MICH helmets

Bolle X800 goggles

regular BDUs

balaclavas

 

Which seems very unlike the SF standards of today, but hey. It's airsoft. And if you look at screens from the game, this looks damn cool without some $1000 armour chassis

Can be after a few minutes under the tools. However, when there's terrorist breathing down your neck that's not an option.

[Butter18c]

I'm just saying they wouldnt use the FN-2000 in a situation most likely, because they have plenty of other more popular weapons that they could get faster, and probably would be better because they would have been more likely to have more training time with one of those other ones

nope. it is actually just a ribber/ABS beflector that can be quickly changed to one side or the other.

[ED-SKaR]

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

they dont need to get them, they have a huge stock of weapons, they are alloued to 'borrow' weapons from active military units as well

 

they dont need to train with any given weapon, just a few hours at a fireing range will do the trick (they have unlimited budget on ammo for that as well)

[Butter18c]

OK, so they can use an FN-2000. I'm just saying that they would most likely use an MP5 or something like that most of the time, especially if your going after the book

[snowman]

From the book, I recall .45 Berettas (can only be the Cougar), a Walther sniper rifle (You'll need an Asahi or Geneth or that custom built FAMAS) and MP5s (Plenty of choice there, at least )

 

Cheers.

[skyler8158]

One of the guys used an M60 too.

[Kipper]

Yeah i stopped reading the book got bored about 1 1/2 inches in lol

 

Umm from the game yeah you can pretty much have everythin but id just recommend some black gear and slap the odd rainbow symbol on yourself

[Maple-Leaf]

The GAY Commandos then?

[Butter18c]

The books awesome, although its a little boring for a while after the Worldpark incident

[clmwrx]

rainbow uses whatever they want

 

so in airsoft use what ever you want

 

btw i love the games

[Butter18c]

Is it just me, or did the games seem almost impossible to complete? I never could figure out how to like have two teams at different doors, and we throw in a flashbang, and then the two teams rush.

[Remington]

Let's not forget to add this to the kit supply list.

 

 

I thought there was a coloured one as well, but all I found on patchgeeks.com was this one in 3" and 4". I'm pretty sure there is a more UN styled patch that's got blue dye in it. Maybe one of the other patch suppliers has got it, or I just missed it on the above site.
