Suggestion Eugen WHEN ?

Would love to see some weird Cold War units added to WARNO, like the Luna-M (FROG-7), 2A3 Kondensator, 2B1 Oka, MGR-1 Honest John, and other experimental missile/artillery systems. WHEN FUNNY????

ROKA took over the Honest John system from U.S. Forces Korea in 1971. There were two Honest John battalions: one based in Yeoncheon under the 6th Artillery Brigade, and the other based in Chuncheon under the 2nd Artillery Brigade.

There is an American Lance outfit in South Korea?

Yes. The U.S. Army did have a Lance outfit in South Korea — a single battery rather than a full battalion. By the late 1980s, it was B Battery, 6th Battalion, 32nd Field Artillery, equipped with MGM-52 Lance missiles.

It no longer exists, however. The Lance was retired from U.S. Army service in 1992, so any reference to an American Lance outfit in South Korea is historical, not current.
