Why aren’t modern militias and guerrillas using cannons?>cheap and repairable>concealed for stealth>mobile by vehicle and foot>obliterates anything it hits>versatile ammo>immune to EW and tracking software.Theres millions of them that are underutilized. Why hit someone with a howitzer when you can get the personal satisfaction of seeing them turn to red mist by 12lb iron.
>>61473096Because recoilless guns are far superior.Try to move anything heavier than 20-30 kg and you'll understand without words.
>>61473150I doubt a recoilless is better than a cannon pal. Go try firing an rpg at a pirate ship and see how well that goes.
>>61473160> militias and guerrillas
>>61473212A 12lb ball does more damage than a copper jet stream
>>61473224OG-7, TBG-7...........btw, weight wise you can carry 100 RPG for the weight a single cannon.>hide
>>6147326810* if I take into account modern metallurgy that probably is out of reach for a guerrilla...
>>61473096because that's fucking stupid
>>61473096Because without shells they are useless
>>61473096>Why hit someone with a howitzerYou posted a howitzer retard
>>61473212Oh like militias and guerrillas never fight pirates? International law says "militias and pirates can never fight nope", is that it?
I don't understand why Civil War-era muzzleloading blackpowder cannons like the one in OP's pic aren't used for hunting elephants and snow geese. You wouldn't have to get dangerously close to the elephant, and you could get snow geese on the ground from a mile away. If you used smokeless powder instead of blackpowder you might get two miles. If you used like a mini cannon one person could carry it. A cannon would work on all game, you'd just need to load it lighter, like 1/3rd the powder and an aluminum cannonball for pheasants and rabbits, etc. With light loads you'd ruin less meat because you wouldn't shoot holes in it, the cannonball would basically club it, like hitting a rabbit with a sledgehammer, thus preserving the meat. And if SHTF you could load it with match heads from the store, or hairspray like a potato gun but vastly more powerful because it's a cannon.
>>61473666>he doesn’t poison elephants
Also Civil War cannons would be great at shooting down low flying aircraft up to a mile away.
>>61473686You’d need a big lead and predictive aiming for their flight path.
>>61473681You don't need to rub poison on a cannonball. It kills without it.
>>61473690It's called a bead sight and knowing how to shoot.
>>61473096Rockets are in wide use and are basically as you describe.
>>61473734Rockets can be prematurely detonated and intercepted. A cannonball cannot.
>>61473690They used to be able precisely hit ships when both ships were rocking on high waves
>>61473160a gorilla would not have access to an RPG or a cannon. frankly a gorilla on the seas would be a stupid idea in the first place.
>>61473808You say this but what you will do when it finally happens? When you’re stranded at sea and the gorilas come things will get bananas.
>>61473096>Why aren’t modern militias and guerrillas using cannons?They aren't?https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Improvised_artillery_in_the_Syrian_civil_war
>>61473808>>61473818You guys are ignoring the fact that pirates can go on land. Yes, a gorilla could be on a ship and maybe that ship gets boarded by pirates, or maybe the gorilla is trained to shoot a cannon on a ship. But, statistically it's more likely gorillas and pirates would fight on land, maybe some place like Gorilla Island, I don't know. So land-based gorillartillery vs. pirates is more likely.
>>61473160>I doubtYou're wrongShaped charges are something like 5x more effective than the equivalent weight of solid shot.
>>61473741>precisely hit shipsDon't look up how close ships had to get to actually do more then put holes in the water around the other guy.
>>61473896Would you russkie meatbots fuck off? You're just making all of us hate Russians even more.
>>61473912>>61473913Can we talk about cool cannons instead of le west and russia?
>>61473944The thread brings up mordern militias and guerillas in the first post which is a clear reference to the Ukrainian armed forces
>>61473955>Ukraine>Ukraine>Ukraine?>Ukraine>Ukraine!>But what about Ukraine?Brainrot.Go somewhere else tourist.
>>61473955FUCK OFF
Ignore the faggot trying to derail for some reason.

>>61474050I can type random garbage too. I highly doubt that considering you appear to get your opinions from what’s trending on Instagram.
>>61474058I can pull numbers out of my ass with no sources too. Guess which country has transvestites reading to children?
>>61474059you will always be a newfag and an election tourist
>>61474080you will always be a newfag and an election tourist
>>61474065why is gay stuff only okay when trad puccia does it?
>>61474093Literally what the post says. And this is between adults. You castrate children and have transvestites tell them they’re gay for liking pink
>>61474100meds
>>61474004Dude, don't let all the obvious grabber leftist faggots here convince you that you should support russia to contradict them. Russia is a dead corrupt state that results from a leftist takeover. The soviets had so many oblivious western leftists convinced they were the utopia. Now, the neo-soviets have convinced oblivious conservatives that they are a nation of based tradpilled anti-degenerates. They are none of that.
>>61474086wow ur a witty lil cunt
>>61474107Your meme featuring a white virgin (frankly that’s an oxymoron these days) has no impact on me

>>61474162It’s a special level of terminally online to dig through so many threads you find different people saying the same thing
>>61474179>nooooooooooooo those almost identical posts are totally different people!
>>61473899Wikipedia tells me that a modern shaped charge will penetrate armour grade steel to a depth of up to seven times the diameter of the charge, which would make it a lot more than 5x more effective than a cannonball of the same size if I'm any judge - especially against a wooden vessel

Its kind of fun hopping on /k/ after the euros and asians had their prime time while americans were sleeping. You get to see some really funny exchanges

>>61473160>try firing an rpg at a pirate shipThink Mr. Beast could team up with some guntubers? I only mention him because he's probably got the capital to buy an old clipper or something.

>>61473096EFPs are very short cannon.
>>61473096There are no militias or guerrillas currently operating who1. come from enthicities that ever built cannons (technological interest and skill is genetic)2. Dont have access to more modern weapons
>>61480569>, he said while not posting his own guns
>>61483979Yes that's actually how it works on /k/, the accused always goes first.You'd know that if you weren't an outsider.
>>61474004It's an organic reaction to 6 fucking years of RUSSIA STRONK shit from Armatard and co, only for the world to witness the absolutely hilarious disaster that was the 2021 invasion, but still witness Russians STILL simping for a rape filled conscript army
>>61474336how much does it weigh? how are you propelling it? how are you at that angle to the front of an MBT without being evaporated first? how do you do a follow-up shot? how long is the reload? what happens to the MBT's buddy who's going to evaporate you?
>>61484207>, said the obvious newfag nogunz retardbtw, I'm not him, so: Post guns
>>61484282>how much does it weigh?enough>how are you propelling it?propellant>how are you at that angle to the front of an MBT without being evaporated first?cannons are smaller than a whole tank and they don't glow as much>how do you do a follow-up shot?why would I need to?>how long is the reload?doesn't matter at that point>what happens to the MBT's buddy who's going to evaporate you?>implying there isn't another cannon (because cannons usually appear as batteries) lying in wait to fire a proper salvoNow sit down and think about your folly.
>>61473899>implying you cant make shaped charges for cannons
>>61473837thats more of a shitty mortar
>>61484353Nice try lol
>>61484726>still hasn't posted gunsSee, if you weren't a tourist faggot who came here yesterday you'd know that it's always the ones crying loudest for HURR POST GUNZ that are the ones without guns.FAY-GOT!
>>61484763Yeah this is always the routine the Noguns go through. This whole song and dance you're doing is very unoriginal, and helps us spot your kind.
>>61484591But you couldn't with a smoothbore, do you know how shapecharges work? Orientation is kinda important.
>>61485331>n-no I swear I am NOT a tourist newfag noguns faggot and that's why will NOT post my guns, but I swear I own guns, totes bro!pathetic little loser, you.
>>61485356>But you couldn't with a smoothbore, do you know how shapecharges work?Why is it always faggots who don't know anything that yell the loudest? Maybe you should look up what riflings modern MBT cannons have.
>>61485385Sorry toury, it doesn't work here.
>>61485456>it doesn't work here.Of course it doesn't, because you don't have any guns, duh.

>>61486548A giant cannon being used to disable a tank would logically need to be some kind of hidden single shot trap at close range, something camouflaged in a large amount of material, or fired from surprise at a high angle towards a pre-sighted in location.I doubt such a large cannon as in that simulation would be required to mission kill MBT, or at least throw a track.
Fuck's sake what a bunch of no-fun spergs you are
this place sure is a lot like reddit
