	The Infantry - Support Weapons
		Currently, the HMG provides integral close-range support from a ground mount tripod or fitted to a Land Rover TUM using Weapon Mount Installation Kit (WMIK) and a variety of sighting systems.
		The Anti-Tank Platoon of an Infantry battalion is equipped with MILAN, a second generation man-portable anti-tank weapon capable of destroying enemy armour out to 1950 m.
		Mortar platoons in Armoured Infantry and Mechanised battalions are mounted in - and can fire from - FV 432 armoured vehicles increasing the mortars mobility and speed into and out of action.

	Infantry Guns and Heavy Mortars
		With a 155mm Heavy Infantry Gun fitted a medium tank might serve as what Mike Sparks terms a "Modern Siege Engine", although systems such as the 120mm Assault Gun-mortar may prove more useful if something lighter than a MBT is needed.
		Infantry Guns have tended to be compact and light to give them the handiness and mobility required for infantry use.
		A small Infantry gun could actually be fired from the interior of a building or bunker or from the rear door of a van or APC.

	Infantry support gun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Artillery
		Weapons covered by this term in the modern era include "tube" artillery such as the howitzer, cannon, mortar, and field gun and "rocket" artillery.
		Cannons (such as infantry support guns or the guns on a naval ship) are typically low-angle weapons designed for a direct-fire role.
		Modern field artillery is often self-propelled (permanently mounted in a carriage or vehicle capable of moving independently) in order to move quickly from one firing position to another - to both support the fluid nature of modern combat and to avoid 'counter-battery fire'.

	First World War.com - Weapons of War - Machine Guns
		Machine guns of all armies were largely of the heavy variety and decidedly ill-suited to portability for use by rapidly advancing infantry troops.
		As the war developed machine guns were adapted for use on tanks on broken ground, particularly on the Western Front (where the majority of machine guns were deployed).
		Light machine guns were adopted too for incorporation into aircraft from 1915 onwards, for example the Vickers, particularly with the German adoption of interrupter equipment, which enabled the pilot to fire the gun through the aircraft's propeller blades.

	Divisional Machine Guns
		Machine gun companies that were attached to infantry battalions designated as division or brigade reserve for a particular mission were usually placed under direct command of their respective brigade commanders, to fill gaps of fire and to protect the brigade flanks.
		When in the former role, the guns were placed to cooperate with the field artillery units in neutralizing suspected enemy observation posts and machine guns during the attack and to sweep the approaches for possible enemy counterattacks after the capture of the final objective.
		When they employed their guns in that fashion, the machine gun officers often ran into opposition from the rifle company commanders, who preferred to have the guns farther forward, fearing that their infantrymen would be at risk of stray low rounds as they advanced under the overhead machine gun fire.

	Army Lineage Series: Infantry Part I: Regular Army
		Cavalry was eliminated, and eight infantry regiments and one rifle regiment arose from the ruins of the forty-six and four in existence.
		Infantry officers pointed out that when sickness and desertion occurred; these little companies were much too small to do their duty in the Indian country where 180 out of 250 of them were stationed in the 1870's.
		Infantry regiments and machine gun battalions together totaled 462 in World War I, a figure which is dwarfed by the 1,700-plus infantry units that served in the Civil War.

	Notes on new types of infantry units
		Infantry, while high tech considering the infantry of the late 20th century and certainly soldiers before that, were low tech when considered next to their mobile battledress equipped brethren.
		Infantry weapons are light, mostly snubmachineguns and snub assault rifles with a few disposable light armor busters and maybe a light man portable crew served weapon or two for good measure on a squad support level.
		Infantry in woods or swamp gain a def value of 2 automatically due to their ability to go to ground and their ability of having virtually no EMS emissions (even the heat / thermal images are soaked up by their combat suits and gear and the surrounding terrain).

	FINNISH ARMY 1918 - 1945: Infantry Guns & Mountain Guns
		Basic structure of the gun was the usual one of that era with pole trail, screw breech and wood wheels with steel hoops.
		Gun was also based to Schneider designed 76 mm infantry gun 1913, presumably Russians had wanted a lighter version for direct fire use, so this version had been developed.
		Guns structure was typical to mountain guns of that time: It had box trail, gun shield, sliding block breech, wood wheels with steel hoops and could be divided to parts loads suitable for mules or men to carry.

	Lone Sentry: German Assault Artillery (U.S. WWII Intelligence Bulletin, December 1944)
		Consisting of assault guns and howitzers, assault artillery pieces should not be confused with other types of self-propelled guns, for each of the four types of German self-propelled guns has definite characteristics, and each follows prescribed tactics peculiar to its type.
		The assault guns (17) are held in reserve in the wood near the battalion CP (10).
		German infantry is keeping clear of the assault gun, while the assault gun backs up the effort of the Pak 38 in firing on targets which have been holding up the infantry advance.

	Avalanche Press
		Crews preferred the mountain gun variant: despite the anachronistic appearance of its wooden wheels, these were much larger than the tires on the standard gun and made it much easier to handle in action.
		Requiring motor transport or a horse team to move the gun took away most of the advantages of a true infantry gun; it also required a larger crew (seven men).
		Germany’s allies did not use the guns either; the Spanish Blue Division did have them and they proved very popular with the Spanish volunteers, but this was a Wehrmacht outfit organized and equipped on German lines.

		The original Type 67 medium machine gun was developed as a lightweight replacement for the Type 53 (SG43) and Type 57 (SGM) medium 7.62mm machine guns, both were originally copied from Russian designs.
		A prototype was ready for firing range testing in 1963 and was tested against the two machine guns that it was intended to replace.
		A decision was made to change the Type 67 tripod-only configuration to a folding bipod along with a wooden butt stock, reminiscent of the M60.
