What should be done to save the US’s strategic airlift capabilities. The newest C-17’s are 13 years old and their hours are being racked up as we speak. C-5’s have an availability rate of less than 40%. There are zero active manufacturing lines open for strategic air-lifters open now. What can be done in the short and long term to ensure the US is ready for a war in the pacific in which lots of airlifts WILL be required?

Homemade Handheld CLGG Diagram (THEORY) Basically an untested electrically ignited single shot firearm using methane oxygen mix as propellant (or you could try substituting methane with other flammable gasses such as propane or hydrogen) inside a capsule to propel a projectile (steel ball bearing/s). This is done as opposed to gunpowder which is heavily regulated or banned in many countries. This is only a theoretical design but it gives you an idea on how to get around the acquiring primers/gunpowder issue. Although oxygen and methane has a much lower energy density than modern gunpowder or even black powder, with enough gas mixture and a solid means to contain and direct it, it is theoretically possible to make firearm projectile propellant from methane and oxygen, as once ignited the pressure spikes and pushes the projectile down the only way it can go (the barrel) at higher speeds. Pure methane gas can be bought for camping in canisters, or can be siphoned off from gas from an oven for example. Oxygen is more difficult to get pure in canisters unless you have a specific medical condition, but you can get some plants that create small bubbles of it over time that can be collected in an upside-down test tube or plastic measuring cylinder inside a larger container filled with water. Allow the bubbles to accumulate then disturb them by shaking the plant leaf and bending it so the bubbles rise in the water to go into a funnel that goes into an upside down measuring cylinder or test tube. Then once enough is collected, bung or seal it to then use the same method to fill up a capsule for a methane (or other gas such as hydrogen or propane) and oxygen mix.
>>65120085Why go through all this trouble to use a propellant inferior to black powder? Why not just make black powder? >it's controlledEven if it's controlled in the Lower Barony of Buttfuckistan, the ingredients are not. The instructions are not. A bunch of toothless malnourished faggots could do this 800 years ago with tainted ingredients and an imprecise (to be kind) understanding of the ratios involved and what was actually happening. They got it done anyway. What's your excuse?Seriously, it's easier than whatever the fuck this is supposed to be.
Assuming a 30mm long chamber with a 10mm bore, you will have approximately 0.85 milligrams of methane, with about 42 joules of chemical potential energy. Assuming perfect combustion and perfect energy transfer, you could theoretically make a gun with power about halfway between a .22 bb and a .22 short subsonic.
>>65120085I think you've got the 'tism anon. Kinda interesting though.
>>65120236You're still at atmospheric pressure.If you're working with an open topped water cylinder, and then displacing the water from your "cartridge" with the resultant gases, the most you'll get is whatever the ambient air pressure is.You'll never realize the energy density you're looking for with your gases at ambient.
So I did some research and if you get canister of 600ml which measures internally roughly 50mm for the diameter and 300mm in length as an example, and fill it with a mix of 2:1 oxygen to methane it will produce over 100 joules of energy, enough to propel a .22 projectile at over .22 short speeds, almost at .22 long rifle speeds. This is assuming a 2% energy transfer efficiency. It is not that convenient of a weapon compared to gunpowder propelled firearms, but it proves you can use alternative propellants and still make something viable as a firearm for those who may be difficult or suspicious to acquire gunpowder, or the ingredients to make gunpowder. These are just ideas.

Can you add a projectile to the end of a blank round and fire it? Let’s say a .22 blank with a .22 ball bearing or .22 lead pellet (used for air rifles). Or a 9mm blank and a 9mm ball bearing? Or how about 12 gauge shotgun blank with small ball bearings as pellets.If any of the blanks are lacking in power, then cutting them open and pouring more blank gunpowder into the cartridge from other blank rounds and then sealing it could work, or you can remove the primer and blank gunpowder and insert them into an empty homemade case for a homemade firearm with custom projectiles? What’s the best way of removing centrefire primers intact? Are there any improvised methods that can be used without specialist equipment?Is it as simple as using a hacksaw to cut just below the crimping on the blank round and pour the powder out where necessary? Just an idea for those with blank ammo spare for testing or in countries where live ammo is hard to come by. The modified blank rounds would have to be used in single shot firearms with barrels and chambers that would accommodate them as they could easily cause jamming issues. I heard blank gunpowder is different to regular gunpowder used in live ammunition due it needing a distinct ‘bang’ that would not be present if it was a live round with the bullet removed, this means that it burns quicker and so spikes more in pressure.Let’s use 12 gauge as an example for when you can’t or don’t want to get casings or make your own casings. You can get used empty 12 gauge birdshot shells, replace the primer at the bottom with the blank primer, and pour in blank gunpowder to your preferred level, place a wad (what happens if you go wad-less, and what would be a good improvised wad?) then pour in the small ball bearings to act as buckshot. Any issues, solutions or ideas raised are appreciated.
>>65123127>Any issues, solutions or ideas raised are appreciated.Yeah how about just buy a regular gun, nigger.
>>65123127Hmm, lets see, did you think of looking it up on youtube where about half a dozen people have done exactly this already years ago?

>>65108534There's also the basic security problem: once you have physical control over a thing all bets are off. Even if the US would actively deny launch authority, there is nothing stopping the Germans from fiddling with the thing to make it go boom anyway. I think a lot of people are just retards that go nuts the second orange man opens his mouth, but realistically you'd want plan A, B, C for what happens to those nukes. Also consider the nukes are where they are because the USSR border used to be in commuting distance rather than road trip distance. Like you'd want local control over them in case the soviets actually made it to the rhine.

>>65121084>>65120374>>65119900So I had a look at this. This small boat sounds like a Project 368 boat, which was a torpedo retriever used by the Soviets at this time period with some boats being used as either border patrol or gunboats. There isn’t a full list of boats commissioned, but there’s at least a partial list of them. Interesting enough, there was a T368 (torpedo retriever subclass) that was lost in August 1985 in an accident involving a submarine. But that was TL-995, which was: a) in the Northern Fleet, not the Pacific Fleet; b) recorded as lost on the 23rd, not the 10th; and c) the accident was involving B-103, which was a Project 641 [“Foxtrot”] class. So seems unlikely to be her.https://russianships.info/eng/support/project_t368.htm
