Urban-Warfare Expert Rates 11 Urban-Warfare Scenes In Movies And TV | How Real Is It? | Insider

I know he didn’t like the technical accuracy of MOSUL but I encourage people to watch it. It’s an intense film, based on real-life events, and for once the protagonists aren’t Westerners in a foreign land. It’s a raw film, with people of grey moral character, but its aesthetic and performances are well worth the watch.

[@Trojanfan666]

Exactly, but he is comparing it to how westerners would be tactically when the whole movie is based on the local fighters... i don't get him mentioning bomb sniffing dogs when that is not how the local fighters would be

[@AngeloBarovierSD]

@@Trojanfan666 Also true! Moreover, the main team were tactical police who transitioned into warfighters. I’m sure they were rough around certain edges. Either way, such an intense and visceral film.

[@unluckytourist]

The breakdowns are often like this - "this is inaccurate to how we would do this" vs "this is the incorrect way of doing it, but it happened this way". There is a Green Beret on KZbin who reviewed Mosul and said it was accurate in many ways to how the local forces he worked with behaved.

[@Poodlestroop]

Mosul is an excellent film about a battle that really deserves to be remembered - glad to see it getting some appreciation.

About mouse holing: my grandfather talked about his experiences in urban warfare during WWII and said you never used the door but made your own. The standard procedure they used was to put a satchel charge against a wall and blow a hole in it. Then two soldiers would throw grenades. After the grenades went of one with a tommy gun would spray all 30 rounds into the room. While reloading two would unload their M1's. Then the tommy gunner would step in and look for staircases and spray them at the same time into the ceiling above, which is the floor of the second level. He said that the Germans would often stand just above the hole that they made and wait to hear when they moved in then spray down through the floor with their sub machine guns. After the tommy gunner finished his clip and moved out to reload the rest of the squad would be moving in to secure the building. Of course in all this they didn't usually have to worry about civilians.

[@edi9892]

I've heard that even early , AT RPGs were constantly abused as either anti-personnel grenade launchers, or to make mouseholes. In that case, they may shoot below a window as that's already a hole and underneath is probably a radiator (which would stop overpenetrating rockets/grenades). Also, civilians made a lot of mouseholes, especially linking up basements of the entire quarter. You definitely don't want to be buried by rubble after an air raid...

[@spydernyne984]

The Thompson gunner would have a magazine, not a clip.

[@robo5013]

@@spydernyne984 During, and after, the war soldiers called them clips, mainly because an M1 uses a clip to speed load the rifle and so they called anything that put bullets into a gun a clip. While you are technically correct I was using the words that my grandfather used to tell the story.

In German cities, there are streets marked as "Spielstraße" meaning “playing street” where people/kids can play ball, tag or whatever. Cars can only go 7 km/h / 4.3 mph max. I would say it's the only street I would feel comfortable to say in the middle. 😁😁

[@AngeloBarovierSD]

True! I’m also surprised we didn’t see SICARIO or THE KINGDOM in the mix. Even the kidnapping scene in MAN ON FIRE, though I can see how that’s not necessarily “warfare” in the strictest sense. But hey, they include a F&F movie so… Maybe we’ll get a part 2!

Of course, hotel doors don't *have* to be easier to kick open but I'd imagine doors to the outside could generally have a stronger locking mechanism in place ... or whatever that is called xD

[@LightemupWMH]

I always use and teach the mule kick. Generates power, and moves you out of the way of the door so your team can enter quickly. If you're facing the door when you kick, either you need to be first in which means you have to set your footing get your gun on target and then move, or you have to move out of the way to let your team in. Mule kick, step and turn and you're on pace to be the 3rd man into the room.

[@marianat2830]

Black Hawk Down is one of my favorite military movies! It’s so stressful

[@jenx5870]

Same here. They consulted with the Rangers and the pilot who were actually there, and some of them were actually on the set during filming. In fact, one is actually performing his rescue just as he did on that day, in the film. It's as accurate as it can be. They had an issue with how the Somalis looked, because they were played by Morrocans, and because it appeared to be less coordinated on their side. However, they did portray Aidid as having foot soldiers who set up and planned the downing of the Blackhawks, and it showed their coordinated efforts when the second team went in at night and surprise attacked them. They weren't going to show everything, when the movie was about how the soldiers got out of the city while being attacked by hundreds of armed civilians. They were all trained at the respective military bases, so it is as real as it gets. I think they did a good job.

[@RaccKing21]

Loved to use mouse holing in XCOM: Enemy Unknown. Yeah, they're aliens, but pinning an enemy squad in an alley with one team, while a second team blast a hole from the side and eliminates their cover, was really effective and fun. Same goes for sniper and overwatch. Finding a good spot so they can cover the advance is almost mandatory. Once you get jet packs, the sniper becomes the grim reaper for exposed enemies.

[@mechanomics2649]

I just stopped using explosives in XCOM. Was tired of getting bitched at for it lol. It never felt like I could comfortably use them because an enemy could always be right around the corner and could get pasted. I always used a sniper with in the zone, squad sight, executioner, and damn good ground. Set them up on overwatch and run two assaults into a room to stir up the aliens.

In most movies I have watched the mule kick is shown with the soldier standing in front of the door and kicking backwards. The version that keeps the body in cover makes more sense to me.

Or have someone grab it when we get dropped off at the VDO if we know we might need them. I remember one time we were doing EA Dev and one of our sister platoons were all struggling using their E tools while our dudes grabbed the pick and the shovel to help them out from the vics. This is why I’m a huge proponent for very single US Army ground vehicle at least having an axe, a shovel, a sledge hammer and a pick as part of their basic load out for any patrol.

The trick with urban warfare is; do you stand in the middle of the street exposed to gunfire, or do you huddle up next to walls and risk getting taken out by explosives? To give credit to Fury, earlier on in the film, they specify the tracer round is one out of a specific number, I think it was 25 or so. The scene where the Germans are shooting ‘light sabers’ was probably just for the convenience of the audience.

His point is that in real life tracer rounds are not set that close to each other to the point that they are so frequent it looks like you are shooting lasers.

[@davewilliams5721]

@Solar-td4fj usually every 3-8 rounds there is a tracer round that I've come across. So it's really not that uncommon, I've also come across quarter tracers, which is one every 5th round. If you're firing a weapon that's pumping out 850 rounds per minute, it definitely can look like that.

[@Jon-yo3kg]

The interesting thing in the battle in Fast Five is that they actually downplayed the kind of shootouts that happen in the rio favelas. Criminals in rio are some of the most heavily armed on the planet, packing RPGs, fifty cals and assault rifles. The issues is that most of these weapons are placed in the hands of drug-addled teenagers, and the drug lords even use under-ten kids as spotters, setting off fireworks to alert the rest of the troop where cops and enemies are coming from. The fighting is pure chaos, and most of the people who end up dying are literal children. The Tropa de Elite films are probably good ones for this guy to review.

[@bin4ry_d3struct0r]

I'm surprised to learn that modern sniper rifles are typically suppressed or silenced. I always read that anything that touches the rifle barrel interferes with the accuracy.

[@erikd2628]

Mounting a suppressor to the barrel may affect where shots land but you just adjust that in your sight's zero because while the gun may now shoot a little different the suppressor stays on the gun and isn't changing shot to shot. Touching the barrel is not really the core issue, the issue is that you zero the gun under one set of conditions and anything that changes those conditions (such as putting pressure on the barrel where there wasn't during zeroing) will have an affect on the point of impact.

[@silentfox8]

The can never touchrs the rifling of the barrel, what affects your accuracy the most is the fact that the bullet will have more time in an enclosed space where its being accelerated by burning gasses, giving the projectile a faster rate of speed which WILL affect accuracy but not usually in a negative way, you just have to account for added fps, but another way to mitigate that issue is to have 2 rifles

I’d like to see him review the final gun fight scene in Heat

[@izzymp7304]

This guy is good, More than 30 years in the military, and law enforcement.

[@anthonygonzalez514]

22:50 Full Metal Jacket did just as well with that.

Favourite movie scene...... Not included in package. Good job, Insider.

@9:00 to be fair standing in the street shooting back. The rocks guys didn't last long and looked amateur AF

[@Octavianus08]

Great analysis! I was hoping to see the final battle from The Kingdom since i had some issues with the FBI hiding behind cars when they very shooting with assault rifles at each other.

@16:43 (Mosul) How many mistakes can you find?

[@huzaifawajid4333]

Raid is still the greatest action movie of all time

[@jonhull3775]

9:10 He is shooting an AR-15 in semi auto, he pulls the trigger twice, two casings are ejected, yet there are about 6 muzzle flashes and blasts.

Anybody heard him say “X-ray vision… we’re not there yet” as if he’s known about the military trying to develop it for a long time. Make you think how advanced they really are

Pops is retired 18b. Heard cover vs. concealment in water gun fights when I was 5. I’m like pops plywood keeps me dry. He couldn’t turn it off.

Not showing a clip from Sicario is a big fail. Or perhaps that epic video Assange is in prison for...

[@xJeremySx]

Why would they review real footage in a series about movie & TV show clips?

[@Mazupicua1]

@@xJeremySx bro what? The movie Sicario....

[@xJeremySx]

@@Mazupicua1 "Or perhaps that epic video Assange is in prison for..." The 2nd part of his comment was talking about the July 12, 2007 Baghdad airstrike footage

[@Moose92411]

I loved Sicario. There is absolutely a place in this video for that one.

[@larrymcjones]

Does Sicario have much urban combat? The tightest fighting I remember is the border crossing ambush not sure if that qualifies as urban warfare or not.

[@claff4573]

i loved this episode

[@Well_Edumacated]

the fact that they included so many crappy movies is hilarious. The ambush scene in Clear and Present Danger is a great example of a successful urban ambush and ambush in The Devils Own would have been another great example to cite for this video.
