What were the weapons used in the vietnam war era?
I want a list of weapons used in that era (that includes any weapons spies used in the cold war).
What primary weapons were used by each side obviously it changed but what were the guns you would see being used commonly
I'm not sure when the Army switched to M-16's. Most of the time if you see an M-14 it means they are Marines. The Marine Corps started out with M-14's and, reluctantly, switched to the M-16. The M-79 grenade launcher was an important weapon. The M-113 Armored personnel carrier was used. The M-60 was the primary machine gun for grunts and air crews. The M-2 (Ma Deuce) has always been a great weapon and was used on the ground and it is still used.
Officers and air crews used the M1911A1 .45 cal ACP pistol. Air crews later carried a Colt .38 revolver.
The 2.75" rocket, otherwise known as the mighty mouse, was an important weapon fired from helicopters in support of infantry. Some AGM missiles were used on helos but, being anti-tank never saw much use.
Guided bombs were first used in Vietnam.
Marines had artillery up to the 155mm.
