No ILA Berlin thread? Is anybody visiting?
Quite a lot of interesting stuff from what I can see on Twitter.

In the picture, an Airbus U145 (unmanned version of the H145 helicopter) equipped with Quantum System drone interceptors.

That looks pretty cool, but is there a real need for autonomous/manned cross-overs? I feel like there's little overlap between the kind of thing you'd want as a quick response unmanned vehicle and the kind of thing you'd want to stuff a human into, but I guess the only difference between a prop plane and a prop drone of that size is the pilot's seat so fuck it why not slap one in?

I guess it makes it easier to operate in a mixed environment, say intercepting lost drones over Estonia, while you can send it unmanned in more dangerous situations.

Let's not get bogged down by tech, and just assume a roughly late medieval tier metallurgy.
How do you think would different fantasy physiologies affect the weapons they use (or others use against them)? Most settings seem to just give other races mostly normal human weaponry and armour while giving them some more unified visual theme, without really considering the efficacy of the equpment in their hands.
Take dwarves for example. Short stature, bulky builds, high strength and endurance. Would poor reach and short arms make swung weapons ineffective? Would they need to rely exclusively on polearms if they were put against normal sized humans?
What about giant races, say 3 metre tall humanoids, what would be the most effective way for them to fight against normal sized people?

>Tolkien evades the problem by depicting orcs as clever and not really primitive, just evil and ugly
I kind of like how this meshes with the Tolkien's idea that Orcs are twisted and corrupted descendents of Elves.
Even in Tolkien, there was the idea that Orcish works were fiendish but crude and ugly. This isn't because they can't create finely crafted items, it's because they don't like that poncy shit.
An orcish weapon is crude because it's meant to be an affront to the fancy-pancy elves, a mockery of their aesthetic and their pride in craftsmanship.

Unrelated but is it an actual fact that smaller breasted women have less milk? I get that larger breasts equals healthier woman or whatever the fuck, but I don’t see why a flat woman couldn’t lactate. Is there a scientific study about it or something?

Technically speaking yes but not enough to actually make as much of a difference as you'd think. Breasts are mostly fat, mammary glands are fairly compact. Large breasted women can potentially store more milk than smaller breasted women between feedings, but smaller breasted women with lower storage capacity can produce more milk since regular emptying of the breasts triggers more milk production.
In short, it really wouldn't make much difference when it comes to feeding a baby, too little milk production would be a hormonal issue, not a breast size issue.

Hey guys, I recently bought my first gun, a ruger mk4 tactical (and I live in sweden so even a .22lr plinker is a huge thing here). Thing is im having issues - i get a lot of stovepipes, brass getting caught by the bolt coming forward, and occasionally the last round bolt hold open doesnt engage, it just clicks closed.

Im running really cheap ammo, so I can shoot a lot, but its a problem during competitions.

I figure it might be that the stock spring on the Mk4 is a bit too heavy for the cheap ammo? Does that sound right?

Make sure you're not running it with the factory grease or whatever they coat the bolt in from the factory. Field strip the bolt, clean it with a CLP or equivalent, and re-assemble oiling the outside of the bolt so that it's wet, but not dripping in oil.

It's also possible that your cheap ammo is under-powered. Some types of ammo are meant for bolt-actions and revolvers only, thus won't properly cycle the semi-auto. Even if you only buy a small 50-round box, try CCI Standard Velocity 45gr round nose. My Mk4 loves that stuff.

Ruger's aren't immune to issues, but try these things first before chasing other leads.

Japanese Marines in Shanghai clearing houses. There was a ton of melee combat in Shanghai and often poison gas canisters were used against stubborn entrenched defenders. Melee combat was so widespread that the Japanese commissioned a study in Shanghai on the efficacy of swords after protracted use, with many officers securing anywhere from three to a dozen kills per sword.

60% interception rate against a subsonic, non-stealthy, and not particularly low altitude target flying across 1000 km of your own territory isn't a particularly good rate. Either the Ukrainians fired more or Russian AD is a leaky sieve
>>
The hard part is in detection and coordination of air defences, Ukraine has a national system co-developed with the west where the operation center gets an air view of the entire country and every single inbound munition, the view is then shared to dispersed air defence units around the country in real-time, so a Stinger team gets the call to be on the lookout, shoots down one, then the rest get tasked to the following AD units and so forth, while the air force is tasked to engage others and such.

In Russia, this coordination takes place over cellphones, military radios and landline.Their high-capability systems like S-300 have no problem shooting down cruise missiles, but they cannot coordinate their defence with low-capability systems like Igla or ZU-23 teams effectively, so Russians get AD bubbles at their AD sites, then the attack targets may have point defence, but any en-route defences kinda suck.
>>
>>65228936
MANPADS have very short ranges, you have to be at the right place at the right time to get a lock and fire, and cruise missiles don't have huge signatures. The probability of a MANPADS crew being able to spot let alone intercept a cruise missile is pretty low. Ukraine gets away with it because their territory isn't huge and they have a sophisticated early warning and AD control system, and even then downing a cruise missile with a MANPADS is something they celebrate. This is more of a MRAD and SHORAD level thing.
>>
>>65228973
>Their high-capability systems like S-300 have no problem shooting down cruise missiles
radar horizon is a big issue for systems like S-300. Even with the radars on masts, the effective range of a S-300 battery against even these not-super-low altitude cruise missiles isn't great, at least compared to the size of Russia. The main defense is dispersed MRAD and SHORAD systems like TOR and Pantsir rather than S-300. Agreed that they have poor coordination and en-route defenses though. I think aside from the poor coordination that's mainly down to the absolute beating that their AD closer to the frontlines took, opening holes in the defenses, combined with the size of Russia.
