Now with the light from the incendiary bombs fired by the enemy, once the infantry advances, both sides are even, reduced to regular close-range combat.
Similarly, because of the light from the enemy's position, the gunner in Kaning's vehicle has turned off the night vision equipment, relying solely on the original sighting scope to find targets.
And the electromechanics, who originally did not have night vision equipment, are now also using the light from the enemy's position to find targets and fire in bursts.
So what's the point of night fighting equipment?
Lieutenant Colonel Kaning, relying on his instincts, realizes the most appropriate use for these night combat gears: elite troops infiltrating and raiding.
In this kind of frontal assault, unless you completely refrain from firing or igniting anything, having night combat gear or not makes no difference.
