The interesting thing to think about, for me, is most western combat is done via combined arms …. artillery, tanks, aircraft, drones and infantry working together. But imagine a prolonged war where attrition has taken its toll. The combined arms approach, then, starts to fail and the infantry is left in some instances to fite(sic) by itself. In that scenario, the rifleman with the biggest reach will have the advantage … as was seen in Afganistan at times.
