Welcome to /k/, 4chan's weapons board. Our board centers around weapons, armor, and other myriad military technology. While guns are the primary topic, threads involving any other sort of weapons, from swords and knives to tanks and jet fighters, come up frequently as well.Discussions about politics, current events, or gun control belong on >>>/pol/Before posting a thread, please check our catalog to ensure that a thread about the same topic does not already exist.
All discussion of politics and current events goes on /pol/. >>>/pol/
This is the largest ever arms package to Taiwan.Of this $11B, $4B will go towards 82 HIMARS launchers and 420 ATACMS. The ATACMS has more than enough range to hit all the ports and factories in Fujian, and can hit ports in Quanzhou and Guangdong.>The proposed arms sale covers eight items, including HIMARS rocket systems, howitzers, Javelin anti-tank missiles, Altius loitering munition drones and parts for other equipment, Taiwan's defence ministry said in a statement.Anduril also copped a win with $1.1B for their ALTIUS drones. PrSM production isn't nearly fast enough yet (400/y) to fill in the gap by the shrinking ATACMS stockpile so the fact that they're being sold to Taiwan means business.
>>64650515Taiwan and South Africa and Israel shared their nuclear program in the 70s. Israel still has their warheads and “advertises this fact with non-denials, the Saffers gave them up before the end of Apartheid to keep them out of the hands of the kaffirs, and Taiwan has said nothing for the last 35 years, however it is noted by some that certain of their conventional missile systems sure look dual use from the outside.IOW, they are probably a nuclear armed power with a minimum effective deterrent strategy like China had before fears about THAAD motivated them to ramp up ballistic missile capacity.
>>64650189>China is way bigger of a threat than RussiaIt's stupidity not seeing how both are connected. China recently told the EU they have no interest in letting Russia lose this war. So the best way for the US to harm China would be to make sure Russia loses this war.
>>64649003>The ATACMS has more than enough range to hit all the ports and factories in Fujian, and can hit ports in QuanzhouConsidering russian interception rates of ATACMS, these 420 rockets will amount to about 40 successful strikes. Less, if the chink air defense is more dense or better than russian AD (which it likely is). And before you go nuh uh, its data from Rusi.
>>64650942I agree, but the Europeans need to see and be made to acknowledge this too before we consider helping to solve it. They didn't give a flying fuck about Russian natural gas in 2021, and they don't give a flying fuck about total industrial dependence on China in 2025. When that changes, I hope we help crush Putin. Until that changes, we need to stay focused on the Pacific war we're all still funding hand over fist like absolute retards.
>>64649551>even 1000 cruise missiles cant change that. china is just too big.Ukraine intercepts about 95% of russian cruise missiles. 1000 cruise missiles would amount to 50 hits.

Could the EVROPA FAVSTIAN SPIRIT achieve this?
>EU militaryImagine if Texas sold F35 parts to Russia, North and South Dakota kept pushing hard for an invasion of Canada at the expense of everyone else and California kept demanding the military speak Spanish. Thats what an EU military would be like, because thats how the EU is now. Theres no center in Europe.
>>64651044Everyone fucking hated Bush and they protested against his war way harder than they have against Trump all over Europe and the US because the war was actually insanely unpopular and nobody in Europe was happy that Europeans were dying in the middle east over a bullshit claim of WMDs. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were directly responsible for European countries to reneg their defense spending adopt a passive and indolent attitude towards defense and ultimately allow the Russian threat to grow, in many ways pro-ziggerism was spawned from anti-Americanism during the GWOT.
>>64650958Then learn how to communicate precisely and clearly instead of sounding like a clumsy retard.
>>64651038You mean the reports that purposedly ommited the ethnicity and identity of the perpetrators, that obfuscated the numbers and the participation of police officers and politicians? That "not a cover-up" report?
>>64651030If 8 years of Bush didn't fuck up European relations via actively getting Euros killed in a retarded Iraq/Afghanistan war, then 4 years of Trump (especially when he is going to get slaughtered in the midterms like what happens to every president) won't do shit--especially with the US still supporting AUKUS deals and other arms deals. The worst part about this is all the doomposting.

Germany is ordering 200 more Puma IFV's.
>>64649648The Russians are the group he was talking about. Get rid of Russia and everyone else can get along. Indians are honorary Russians.
>>64649648
>>64648967I wouldn't be so sure of that. The Puma has a so specific niche that really only makes it attractive for Germany when other offers exist. Especially looking at the successful rheinmetal lynx and the less successful KNDS (former KMW) Boxer Tracked when looking within Germany and various domestic or export models from other European, NATO and NATO friendly nations.>>64648983Don't forget that there also is the Boxer Tracked chassis. It (unfortunately) isn't very successful yet but in theory you can have all the mission modules on a tracked platform as well

>>64643711How do you suppose a full auto disconnector getting pushed out of the way by a full auto selector will help you select between semi and FRT
>>64650465That is exactly how it works. In the middle position the full auto safety selector removes the disconnector from operation, so that the hammer is not caught on the disconnector. The hammer is only caught on the main trigger hook, which happens because the reset cam resets the trigger far enough such that this catches, then the trip bar actuates the cam upon the carrier traveling forward, which then releases the trigger which then releases the hammer off of the primary trigger hook. In the bottom semi auto position the full auto selector does NOT interact with the disconnector, allowing the disconnector to grab/hook the hammer during cycling. The key bit that anon didn't mention is that you "tune" the amount of reset forced by the cam/trigger bar ramp combination such that the amount of forced reset is NOT enough to unhook off of the disconnector in semi auto mode. This is still an FRT because in the middle position the trigger is still being pushed forward and resetting to the main trigger hook the same way it would be in a two position setup, except in the three position setup the disconnector is simply out of the equation entirely. Some might think this is a machine gun, but it is important to remember that there still is no auto sear, the primary sear release is happening in the exact same place and way as a semi auto, and the trigger is being reset each time. Here is a video of my sort of working three position setup. It honestly worked fine enough for a gay range toy, but if you cranked down hard on the trigger it would bind up. https://streamable.com/ctps76
>>64650542So, like the binary triggers I made, its effectiveness rests on a finely tuned balance that ultimately will wear down enough to be unusable Not fun
>>64650654>its effectiveness rests on a finely tuned balance that ultimately will wear down enough to be unusable>Not funWelcome to life. This will happen to you.
Recently got a 20 inch AR-15 from PSA and wanted to get an FRT for it.I saw a company called Partisan Triggers released pic related, a drop in FRT. If anyone has gotten one, I'd love to hear your experience with them and if their reliable or not.

Now that the dust has settled... Its time to apologize. Join me in an apology for a pistol was betrayed by its country despite its years of service.. A perfect embodiment of the GWOT era. Dear Beretta, we regret replacing you with cheap malfunctioning trash. Dear Beretta, we apologize for feeding you with substandard magazines which caused failure to feed issues. Dear Beretta, we regret mocking your lack of modularity despite 99% of troops never actually putting modular crap on their service pistol. Dear Beretta, we apologize for saying you were too big for womens hands, we realize now that women should never have been in the military or even the workplace. Dear Beretta, the weight of our transgressions stays our /k/ feet. We do not wish to be left behind. Amen.To all men listening now, this week, head to your local sports and outdoor and purchase a Beretta M92 variant. Clean it, train with it, learn its functions and maintenance as your own, it will take care of you as well. But do not apologize, as we have all apologized in solidarity here today. Comment too long.

I've been thinking about getting an m9a4 at some point soon.If any of you have one, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
