New Zealand Defense Forces field novel weapon system
 
In wake of the downscaling of the offensive capability of the NZ forces, several secret tests of innovative force multiplying defensive assets have been completed with a view towards greatly improving the defensive capablity and flexibility of the weapons systems tested. The NZ Defense forces developed a multi-taskable system that meets many requirements without much specialized equipment. One such system affords ease of mobility and can be used for both combat and logistical operations and in some rear base areas can be used for recreational purposes.

I think you'll find that this is the new weapon ordered by the Welsh Liberation Army.

You don't want to know what you've got to do to arm the thing.

I believe this is just the latest incarnation of the 'Purple Death' Delivery system, first trialled in Fincastle 88. With some welcome shaggy refinements, of course...

I believe the above-mentioned weapons system is due for a midlife upgrade and life extension program to extend its operational life another 30 years.

I'll think you'll find it a bit to warry for us as we are only peacekeepers, taxis and SAR crews for the civilian population now.

Is the sheep a Private?


Looks smarter than the average Infantry soldier.

You've just given the game away! -Until now this was a highly secret project. A whole batallion of these vicious muthas have been trained for parachute deployment. The costs have been concealed from public scrutiny by recording the expense as 400 wooly jumpers.
Unfortunately, training was curtailed when there was a major accident on the DZ, and 40 of the jumpers had to be taken away by lambulance.

Sorry- its a slow day here today!

I heard that 2 of them got hurt after a heavy lambding. Wonder if they "Got the CHOP"?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! 13th May 2006 13:12

What happens when a senior officer wants to inspect the privates?
