Someone once asked why the rifles used by Chinese soldiers are rarely equipped with scopes? Because seeing the United States fighting, basically many soldiers have scopes on their guns. Why can't China do this?
In the eyes of many people, installing a scope on a rifle is an absolute advantage. This can help soldiers better aim, shoot, improve, and have a greater advantage on the battlefield. Is that true?
In fact, most infantry and tanks now fight with each other, but now most of them are fighting at long range. The two sides shoot at each other behind the bunker. At this time, they rarely aim and shoot. After all, this means that they are themselves. Most of the body will be exposed.
Moreover, if a scope is used, the field of vision of the soldiers will also be affected. It is impossible for every soldier to develop in the direction of an accurate shooter. The requirement for every soldier to be equipped with a scope is completely unrealistic, even American soldiers cannot do this.
So nowadays, not only the Chinese troops, but even the US troops are basically adjusting their troops in an optimized combination. An infantry squad has a scope and other fire support weapons, plus ordinary rifles. We can achieve the combined effect of precise shooting and suppressed shooting.
