So I tried IR HT today. Unfortunately no replays. It is indeed a very useful HT in 2v2. Make sure it is deployed behind the contact point with the opponents. Basically IR HT serves as the forward artillery observer and guide for flank assault. Usually when opponents overrun the defended position or opponent successfully defends the territory, he or she will deploy the medic HT. Use IR HT to locate it and bombard it with light howitzer during the reinforcing period. Whenever one observes the anti infantry troop or AT troop, one can use HT to make observation for the flanking assault path and determining the optimal path for armor assault. This should also applied to 3v3 or 4v4. 1v1 IR HT is basically not quite useful in the sense that it is too expensive in 1v1 in both MP and fuel point perspective.

The IRHT should be build in conjunction with Wurframen to make the best use of the embarrancely accurate barrage highway of death. It is, however also usedull to a certain degree for monitoring an exposed area without sacrificcing combat strength for this purpose. When the Wurframen has reloaded, the IRHT repositions and find the new target for another barrage. The beauty of this IRHT is the incredible range of the IR searchligt, and the fact that it has literally no defencive measures, it can stay well behind your lines, and yet excellently fulfill it's purpose.

It's not a unit I personally ever build, but I can clearly see its place and the benefits and oportunities it generates. If a player is fond of Wurframen, the IRHT shjould really be built to complement and augment it.

While the info is appreciated, this thread would be better in the OKW strategy forums, or the team game strategy forums.
