Are bottom-tier with weapons with high recoil and poor (or non-existing) optics.

Are their main weakness, their vehicles are slow and have weak weapons that will struggle to win head on against a BLUEFOR faction. Instead, insurgents must ambush the enemy to avoid taking 1v1s.

They are able to build 2 HABs PER FOB, giving them a strong advantage to place FOBs nearby the radio and one closer on point. Unlike other factions they can spawn on friendy rallies, even if they are not your SLs this is called "buddy rally". Their IEDs are powerful and can be used for IED bikes/objectives to cause chaos.

They rely heavily on their armor killers to win fights. Having the BMP-1 and SPG-9 both put them at a disadvantage. This can give the enemy the chance to farm you from a distance with IFVs/Tanks with little recourse if you lose your armor killers. Insurgents must then rely on Anti-Tank Tandems which have a and IED bikes which have a short range. Their SPG-9 (tow equlievant) is hard to aim and can't rotate 360 degrees.
