>>65162716how stupid do you have to be to collide in the fucking sky, nigga you know how much space there is up there???
>>65163172It's in the public report. Been a while since I read it but apparently had been popped for it before and the flight doc let it slide due to some back injury she had sustained. Report doesn't say if he lost his medical license or wings, which is kind of weird since he's the most guilty besides the people that died.
>>65163199If I had to guess, the aircraft on top was going too slow and it's AOA rapidly decreased while it was going over the top causing the crash

The world was cooler back when police forces didn't just use some Glock variant and some AR platform thing
>>65162516Like I said the roads was the only part of the idea I pointed out as bad. There's a lot of anons who don't drive, and I wouldn't be surprised if anons really thought that was a good idea, because many aren't drivers and think from that perspective. I've heard some truly wacky things from people who don't drive but still have ideas as to how the road ought to be
>>65157646>It was a better time. Cars came in more vibrant colors too. I fucking hate how cars are just black, white, grey or the occasional blue.
>>65162557I think it's a psyop to make us depressed and accepting of mediocrity. Houses and buildings all utilize the exact same color palette. And any "bold" colors being used, are just softened subdued versions of those colors.
>>65158775>Crazy thing it's all the worse parts of minimalism too. Look at pick up trucks. They used to be for blue collar workers getting to and from work on week days and offroading on the weekends, and the kicker no bells or whistles therefore pretty affordable. Now they are Mcmanisons (Especially when looking at prices on these things) on wheels getting women and fatasses from one strip mall to the next while having a mortgage size car payment every fucking month.we get ityoure european /k/ poster #96695508650 whos never owned a gun, rides a bus and lives in a 15 minute cityplease just take what you want and leave the store, we dont want anymore trouble from "your kind" around here
>>65158775>Now they are Mcmanisons (Especially when looking at prices on these things) on wheels getting women and fatasses from one strip mall to the next while having a mortgage size car payment every fucking month.Why does your type always expect people to justify the things they have/like? Base model work trucks are still made, buy one

>>65163073How about you post weapons that aren't typical?
>mfw the average yn has a faster cleaner draw than any autist on /k/
>>65163186Nigga it's been that way for like 40 years now. Shit, we watched Boondocks and Chappelle Show. Or hip hop still being relevant in general.
>>65163189I also wish to never see black people ever again
>>65163186Do you come into this general niggatry thread just to blow a fuse at a random slang word?
>>65163195>we watched Boondocks and Chappelle Show. Or hip hop still being relevant in general.Speak for yourself mr "colorblind"
>>65163186Was listening to Liquid Swords the other day and got stunlocked at the realization that "lowkey" was already slang 30 fucking years ago.
Weapons from fiction that you want to be real, that could also possibly be real. For me, it's the Bolter.
>>65162958It’s even available in 300 blackout, which makes it the official replacement for the Remington 760
>>65162707If you mean stormtroopers aka tempestus scions they get hotshot lasguns.
>>65162652>>65163015You guys will memorize every little bit of lore but won't even go to trade school
>>65163015it's funny because the lore is literally written by british atheists with trans kids but you slurp it up like it's a crack addict and beg for more
>>65162584Same answer every time these threads come up : lilghtsaber.Because I wanna watch the rekt threads that will be full of idiots cutting off their own arms, legs, decapitating themselves, and/or disemboweling themselves.
Ar15 platforms are way better.
>>65156465Fuxking true and based. But as someone who enjoys a good argument, we all know the Fn FAL is the best choice, and everything else is just slop for women and starving peasants.
>>65157179I mean, once the ar gun and ammo became cheap (and the balanced recoil saiga i tried to pre-order from centerfire became vaporware), the AK became less cool.

>>65162351Basically all of what >>65162384 said, and on top of that, A1C dipshit in finance, or supply or wherever the hell gets paid the same to be an absolute fuck up on the job and to bitch and moan about new "standards". It rubs a lot of maintainers the wrong way, and a lot of maintainers get jaded
>>65162618>>65162631
>>65162614If I get unlucky and get a maintenance AFSC, how do I survive my first or second contract until I get to retrain to something else?
>>65162702is it aok to waste 6 to 10 years of your life? noIf you go in open general you'll be a cop, if you are to stupid to get a 3x 4x 5x then don't join, retake the entry test until u score gudtrue story i was told i was going crew chief by my recruiter in 99, i wrote my recruiter a letter said i felt like he was railroading me lmao, he was big mad and i got computer job, 3c0, very happy this happened almost 30 years ago, now im an old man with 1 foot in the grave
>>65163144I listed Open General in my job list because I had to select an aptitude and my recruiter noticed me placing a lot of General Aptitude jobs in my list. I do not think I will be Security Forces because I was too lazy a Driver's License. I also put Open Electronic.I got a 97 in my ASVAB so I am qualified for just about anything. I am still trying to move up in the career ladder for in civilian job for the one fact that I might only get 2A. I wish I have the chance to be more selective about my job, but the Air Force made goal 2x this fiscal year so they have the cards.
Will we see heavirr, longer ranged manpads able to hit high flying bomber?
Why is the M1A so hated by millenials? It's like a holy grail rifle for boomers.
>>65163166>But admitting you have them to medical professionals while being /k/ is like saying you might have depression if you're a pilot. Nobody really can truly help, and it throws a grenade into your medical records.I thought it was self-evident not to bring up guns to medical professionals. Either way, if you've made that retarded fuckup, the only way to fix it is to lie and say you've sold all your guns because you're serious about recovering.
>>65163171Nah, just dancing around the subject with medical providers while they prescribe more shit that doesn't work. That 'ol carousel.
>>65163173Then why were you complaining about medical professionals and them knowing about the guns? It sounds like you failed yourself.
>>65163161There’s gotta be a gunsmith who would do that, you just need a lot of money or a fat little loan from the bank
>>65163185I never complained about medical professionals. I said in mental health never admit to suicidal ideation, because it's one of the few things that can get you committed against your will and therefore not be able to complete a 4473.And your last sentence just goes back to how stupid this view is of, "Just go get help." As if I haven't been trying, but also being simultaneously a failure for admitting the problem in the first place.
First picture of the twin seat Su-57D "Felon". Looking very Flanker-y.
>>65162656>And its meant to be geared towards having the WSO be piloting unmanned drones similar to the US's CCA programIt has a WSO because Russian electronics and PGM are decades behind Western ones.
>>65161981There’s no way that cockpit arrangement doesn’t massively spike the rcs. Not that it will really matter that much since it was already by far the worst but still
>>65162952One post was deleted, which was you posting a screenshot of youtube commentsI don't expect you'll get much sympathy lmao
>>65161981Why would you need an ultra-maneuverable ground attack aircraft? You want it to be fast in and out.It must have turned out to be a real shit stain of a project if they are morphing it into something it should not be.
>>65163029India wants one. Plus the new stealth UCAV they developed likely is too taxing for the pilot.
Tanks and other armored vehicles. Old thread at image limitPrevious Thread:>>65106421
>>65162891concur
So it seems the Ukrainians aren't standing still with their FP-2 platform. It's already been a mothership for FPV drones and now for its latest addition, it can now fire multiple unguided air-to-ground missiles!No clue on what the missiles are, but I'm guessing S-5/8? Could be Hydras too I suppose, but they probably have the soviet equivalents in better stock. Whatever they may be, I cannot wait to see these things strafing oil refineries & ports.
>>65162025those salvos against the tower were pretty impressive given they were done with latency
>>65163054I saw an article somewhere that was talking about how Russians were starting to become relatively tech-savvy in bypassing the internet crackdowns. So it's no surprise that these videos are coming out
>>65163083yeah, russians make some of the best software for thatas always there is deep programming talent in russia but somehow they always fail to make anything valuable with it so it's wasted on stuff like piracy or in this case, circumventing internet censorship
>>65163137>there is deep programming talent in russia but somehow they always fail to make anything valuable with it so it's wasted on stufftrue to the spirit of the original pre-web internet
>>65162619>>65162676>Slinging missiles inside a dense urban areaHow will this help in stopping drones?
Well, looks like Russia is starting to put netting over their docked submarines. Pic is part of the Pacific Fleet based in Kamchatka
>>65158406The problem with that theory is that the Guardian article states that the holes had the metal facing inward which would indicate something punched through from the outside. And only being half a meter in diameter, a kinetic torpedo punching through would fit pretty well.>CNN and La Verdad reported that a 50cm by 50cm hole found in the vessel’s hull – with the damaged metal facing inwards
>>65154004Practically every other time in this war Russians have said "the hohols could never do X" the Ukrainians have turned around and done X. If anything, protecting against the impossible is showing an unexpected level of prescience. That said, this could also be the Russians jumping at shadows or scamming themselves as usual. I hope they are wasting resources on something safe.
>>65154857>some sort of torpedoes that spray air in front of themThey primarily turn the water into vapor by dropping the pressure. That may or may not be assisted by injecting some rocket exhaust into that forming bubble, depending on model.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VA-111_Shkval

>>65161273>the world is small and there is no world war on, getting around aint that hardThere's likely a lot of stuff happening inside NATO that doesn't get documented too.
