why are the su57 and f14 wide asf between exhausts?
>>61655157> because they cannot develop powerful and small engines(weakest part of russian aviation industry besides sensor suites)Isn’t this the most important thing for planes? Like anyone can make jets but almost nobody but 2 countries can make leading edge stuff
>>61656478Too late, mines already there
>>61656912Yah, it is lmao.It's why anything BUT their PGM stuff is shit(3rd party sensors).They can't even CCIP/CCRP bomb properly due to how shit their avionics is>webm related, the target was the buildingHell they didn't even get a digital RWR till fucking 2012 iirc.Our sensor suites and engines(God bless GE and P&W) are actual space magic compared to most countries. Mq9/Rq4 is old as hell at this point, but the sensor packages on them are RIDICULOUS.Most mouthbreathing mongoloids here say some bullshit like >hahaha amelica so expensive see 250 dorra ari baba droneWithout realizing it's a totally different ballgame. We'd send hellfires through 1x1ft building windows 14nm away.
>>61656376isnt ground effect bad if you want to land on a carrier?
>>61655633> 3d thrust vectoring does maneuvering even matter anymore for planes?

>>61652853The S-500 isn't the S-400 on steroids.It's an ABM that bridges the gap between the S-400 and the A-135 anti-ballistic missile system.
>>61658193You are embarrassing yourself, vatnik. Nobody believes the S500 can do shit. It is an AIDS larp, simple as.
>>61653944Getting equipment from elsewhere means that Ukraine can more freely use its homemade weapons on refineries instead of anti-orc defense. We can put down rules for using the weapons we give them, but we can't tell whem what to do when it comes to things they make for themselves.

Surely there must be some interest in this board for things made before planes and machine guns. Ive seen some sword threads floating around from time to time.Primer questionsAny period/culture your like or are autistic about?Have you been to any museum recently and seen or photographed any cool stuff?Do you own or collect anything or is in the process of building a kit for reenacting/living history/Larping?
Why don't modern/upcoming tanks have the ability to also function as artillery by allowing the gun elevation to be increased ? With an autoloading turret you could have mobile artillery and tank in one platform which is a Huge advantage for "scoot-and-shoot" style tactics. So far the only tank that seems to come close to it is the new French/German project with a 140mm cannon. They should develop 140mm artillery and have one magazine with artillery and the other with anti-tank rounds, including Barrel launched ATGM's, unless the tank has extra-external ATGM's instead. And at the very least, even if they don't want the jack-of-all-trades approach, the least they could do is have the chasis be modular and able to perform as either BattleTank/Artillery/engineering, just by swapping modulesAlso: If the new Abrams doesn't have an autoloader I'm gonna laugh. It's stupid to have a 4 man crew, when you could add another entire tank crew for every 3 loaders that aren't needed. Plus it reduces casualties by ensuring personnel dispersion is in as many seperate vehicled as possible What are your thoughts ?Also, tanks far from the front lines should have a towable reserve ammo "cart" that they can place close to their operating area instead of needing a designated vehicle to resupply them. Or at least a robotic automated resupply mule that can ferry ammo without needing to waste personnel that could be used elsewhere
>>61657021Yes. Cancelled in the early 2000s in favor of the VBCI based upon a Renault Trucks chassis. Kept being used as a testbed to try stuff, notably with that 120mm turret.>https://youtu.be/-SWyezLgSisAt some point during trials in the UAE they removed one of the front wheels and the thing didn't lose mobility even in sand lol.Crazy machine, sadly its suspension was a nightmare.
>>61657347>yammering cakehole speakingI yarn
>>61656657FCS had a "tank" (LOS/BLOS) that was supposed to do exactly that. It got canned with the rest of FCS. So, yeah, the concept is not exactly unknown, and has in fact been around since the tank was first invented.It's not the optimal platform for indirect fire, however; there are reasons why a large, lightly-armored vehicle with a ~6" howitzer throwing ~100lb shells downrange has become the gold standard for the job. Tanks are optimized for other roles; sure, they can lob shells, but they contain less HE fill, don't have the same elevation (that forces you to use a taller turret in order to fit the breech inside the hull), and can withstand an awful lot of damage that would kill an artillery piece. So while tanks can and should be capable of doing indirect fire, they'll never be as good at it as a specialized self-propelled gun.Also, while it would certainly be nice for the M1E3 to have an autoloader, it might or might not be enough of a priority for them to include it compared to all of the other things the upgrade is supposed to accomplish. While the M1 has certainly served as a test-bed for autoloaders in the past, the best way to incorporate an autoloader is to design the turret--and possibly even the entire tank--around it, rather than to slap it into an existing design. Part of the decision-making process will likely involve whether the existing turrets will be re-manufactured or replaced--and the latter is a lot more expensive. So, there are decisions to be made and compromises to be reached.Finally, tanks-with-trailers has been tried, and the Soviets used to use the twin-55gal-barrels-on-the-back thing. It tends to compromise the tank's survivability too much. Having resupply troops ferrying ammo is safer, and AI is *not* flexible enough to handle front-line resupply yet.Progress is being made in all of the above; however, it's slower than you might expect.
>>61657041Both high inclination and low depression require taller turrets. Don't forget that the breech has to go to the supplementary angle of the barrel.
>>61659473That is only true if trunnion is outside of the turret ring. Nemo is inside.
>M14 you can carry 280 rds in loaded mags at 10 kg>AK-47 you can carry 360 rds in loaded mags at 10 kg>AK-74 you can carry 540 rds in loaded mags at 10 kg>AR-15 you can carry 600 rds in loaded mags at 10 kgThis is without taking into account the weight of the rifle which skews the balance even more in the favor of the ARAn AR-15 in 5.56 is an incredible rifle for the average infantryman.The army should have kept the M4, perhaps upgrading it with a normal M-Lok handguard, an intelligent barrel profile like pic related, and maybe a stronger bolt to take the new higher pressure ammo. Going back to battle rifles is peak retardation.
>>61657530Yo mama's integrated body armor.
>>61647965Hot .5.56 out of a 24" barrel has better performance against plates than 7.62x51. All you need to do is make new barrels and change adjust the gas system. I don't get why they'd want a whole caliber when they could just make 5.56 better at penetration. I get that they wanted the new silencer but that shit canc also be added to the AR, meanwhile you can keep the old M4 in a submachinegun role without complicating shit.
>>61647965Look at op's pic. That thing is straight out of an IDF armory. Of course he's a weak bitch.
>>61657715MoD did it to spend their allownace money, if they don't use it they lose it. there's a reason why Stoner designed the barrel length to 20" but what does he know?

Wood vs Synthetic shotgun furniture?
>>61647563Wood for style / display. Synthetic for anything else, I love my wood furniture for my 870 but I have it taken off so it can be preserved, and because I live far up north so I don't want it getting wrecked by the extreme freezing temperatures we get up here.So I just run polymer on it most of the time, I'm cringe though and run magpul furniture for my stock, fore-end and sling.
Wood is nice in terms of feel and color, but that shit cracks and wobbles. Synthetics, when decently made are the best for actual use. When I'm shooting trap and skeet, maybe going for a short rabbit walk, I'll bring the wood. But hunting and duty work its synthetic.
Wood looks so good. Makes me want to fondle the gun
>>61656076cracks and wobbles? a decent stock is a tight fit and can be used as a club.
>>61647568Wood warping on a shotgun really doesn't matter at all. What's it going to do? Change your POI? Don't think so.
What is the purpose of the bullpup?
>>61654832they use the hti also, but they'll use anything they got
>>61638644Short gun long barrel trigger bar
>>61638644Standard length barrel in a shorter rifle configuration. Better balanced and easier to handle than a conventional rifle but trigger pull tends to be worse due transfer bar and controls are not as "refined" (you could say) as an AR.Bullpup development hasn't advanced much since AR's have been the golden standard for a long time but there's definitely lots of potential
>>61654038And accuracy.
very nice to hold and aim, long barrel while keeping it relatively short (fits larger backpack, no need to use rifle bag), in case of my meme keltec - excellent supressor host, cheap as fuck even in pooland (paid around 1k250 for mine, keep in mind we pay 25% tax on almost everything and guns are expensive here anyway - acceptable-quality AR that isnt chinky costs 2.5k usd and up here ), and easy/fun to mod, eats any cheap ammo I feed it, and if i break anything it can be either replaced cheaply or i can buy another one.

Do not post on the chink's thread.
>>61645188The thing is, they need a lot of workers - low-end workers, who would breed and produce more low-end or mid-end workers. Why? Tax money. Because taxes are needed for the increasingly aging population of whites who do not breed enough, and automation and technological progress got fucked by capilalists (because unless ordered to, capitalism actually does not assist or boost scientific progress - just conversion of that progress into market).Thats why there is such rampant immigration. And no politician will ever come into public and say "we have fucked up big-time and this is the reason we import people from 3rd-world countries that we ruined and plundered before".>>61645342That small calibre (.22?) rifle while doing marksmanship training in school (post-soviet country - we had that pre-army training class), so i was 15 years old. Then there was shotgun and AK.

Whether you think an event like this will occur, or is even possible is irrelevant. This is just a pure discussion of the 22lr's viability in different scenarios. Long story short, finally got a long time friend into shooting and he purchased a Mossberg 702 and a Taurus TX22. Thought they would make great beginner guns, but now he claims he has everything he needs. I disagree, but it got me thinking about how he would do if something that he fears came true. He has taken my advice on many other things>he purchased a bunch of mags>he has a bunch of "hotter" 22 ammo and shoots it>he goes shooting with me once a week>he does dry fire practice at home to improve his shooting (at least he says he does, and his shooting has improved)Does someone with a 22lr rifle and pistol (and is proficient with both) really have everything they need to survive?
>>61656124Aren't these things Jam-O-Matics? I guess they're kinda cool, but it feels like they have an incredibly small use case. When I go backpacking, I just carry a heritage rough rider on my hip or in my bag. Does pretty much the same thing, and the exposed barrel on the AR7 probably means accuracy wouldn't be all that much better. I can also carry 22mag in that, unlike the AR7. Cheaper price also means I don't have to worry fucking it up or losing it.
