Originally published in 1986 as The Publication of Allied Procedure 6 (APP-6), NATO's Military Symbol for Land-Based Systems, this standard has grown for years and is now in its fifth version (APP-6D). These symbols are designed to improve NATO's joint reliability by providing a standard set of general symbols. The APP-6 forms a joint military symboler system for land, air, space and formations and sea-based units, which can be displayed either for automatic map display systems or for manual map marking. It covers all joint services and can be used by them. The history of the symbol of the first basic military map was first used by western forces in decades following the end of the Napoleonic War. During World War I, there was a level of harmony between the British and French systems, including the use of red color for enemy and blue forces for allies; The British previously used red for friendly soldiers because of the traditional red coat of British soldiers.

  • ASSAULT 1995 Updates for Assault. Weapon Systems
    ASSAULT 1995 Updates for Assault. Weapon systems and vehicles that were in production or near production in 1990- 1999. The upgrades to the FIRE CHARTS are in each country section in the main menu. UNITED STATES M1A1 and M1A2 Abrams. The M1A1 entered service in the mid-1980s. The M1 was rearmed with the Rheinmetall 120mm smoothbore cannon and additional armor was added. The M1A2 Abrams equipped with the Rheinmetall 120mm smoothbore gun and the Commander’s Independent Thermal Viewer (CITV). The M1A2 fires APDU, MPAT, MPHE, and Canister. The MPAT and MPHE rounds allow the M1A2 to engage helicopters with the main gun. The M1A2 incorporated depleted uranium into the armor. The CITV gives the commander and gunner to search for targets independently and with a new fire control system, increases the M1A2‘s ability to get off the all-important first round.
