Still reeling from the sheer retardation of the Battleship proposal, plus that it'll be replacing the DDG(X) project.But the FF(X) looks good. It won't have VLS in it's first flight, but it'll have an established supply chain and available logistics for repair and maintenance. As long as they don't try to make more capable than it needs to be, i think it'll be a good boat.
>>64682644Better to have both. Don't put your eggs in one basket.
>>64682644You don't need 100% uptime from an ASW helo. If they drop sonobuoys, those sensors stay active for hours at a time, if they get a contact you can then send the helicopter back out, at which point it can use it's dipping sonar to get a firing solution and then drop it's torpedo(s). All things which can be done hundreds of miles away from the ship.You're no different to the "everything is obsolete now because drones" smoothbrained retards that have sprung up over the past few years.
>>64674827From the looks of it it's more in line with an old WW2 sort of DD. A small, fast escort, patrol or raiding ship. In the context of a fleet containing a "battleship", these would fight other small boats trying to rush down the battleship (with the main gun on the front and any secondaries, maybe also the missiles at long range), and also have some utility against larger targets (Anti ship missile launchers on the stern).
>>64682644>It's 2025, you have a web of unmanned pickets with sonars,Its 2025, you have a powerpoint presentation featuring unmanned drone boat pickets with sonars.
>>64682678Thats fine, but don't need to be putting 100+ million dollars in choppers on every single ship
No politics, no industrial feasibility or cancellation talk allowed.What is the logical military use case for a huge expensive "battleship" with 3x more displacement than a Ticonderoga and only a few more VLS cells? What advantage could it hold over Flight III Burkes, DDG(X), VPM SSNs, or an SSGN Columbia variant?>1. The core use case would be a large fast cruiser able to escort carriers at prolonged high speeds around the Pacific, in situations where conventional escorts and their oilers couldn't keep up, or would slow the carrier down with UNREP making for risky ASBM attack windows.This is reliant on it being nuclear powered, which isn't confirmed and makes it more expensive and industrially intensive. Perhaps the Navy has done the math and found that cruising around at an unbroken 35 knots is useful to increase the PLA's sea search volume or complicate ASBM kill chains. But it doesn't have that many VLS cells so it must rely on novel weapons as an escort to avoid magazine depletion. >continued
>>64682135It also probably would give everyone on it brain cancer.
>>64682141We can just ask the guy standing in front of the land-based one if he's feeling okay.
>>64681651it hardly has any more vls than a burke but has guns and nukes for land attack.it's a battleship and can't replace any ticos. ticos are getting replaced by burkes.
>>64672575>Diesel powered If it was nuclear they could put 2 x 1 Megawatt Lasers, which would seriously up this ship's capability to take out various types of drones and missiles.
>>64682352The guns are not for land attack, and the nuclear cruise missiles are a meme. Congress keeps funding it even though the Navy has said they don't want it or need it, if they're forced to buy the things they might as well load them up. Ticos are only being replaced by Burkes because the Navy can't seem to build anything more suitable.
Pistol related but last question thread died a while ago. Are all 1911 .45 barrels interchangeable with all other 1911 models? I've got a Kimber and want a threaded barrel for it and I'm wondering if I should just get a Kimber barrel for it.
>>64682989I’d chuck ‘em in an ultrasonic and then disassemble them to dry, but that’s mostly cause I got an ultrasonic for X-mas.

>holy fuck I LOVE driving through traffic somewhere and paying 20$ to the tired and sad gun shop wagie who will finger fuck my guns and check all my ammunition, to go inside a poorly ventilated and dimly lit room to shoot at paper targets, next to one of America's future doctors magdumping his muzzle brake'd "not real full auto, it's FRT" fully automatic 5.56 "not a real SBR, it's a pistol" SBR!Has anyone ever actually had a FANTASTIC experience at a public indoor gun range? It seems to me that it is literally not worth into guns as a pastime if you do not own your own land, or at least have access to a good public outdoor range.
>>64676491Okay, that first bit is pretty valid, but indoor ranges checking your ammo is retarded. What're they going to do? Have some designated boomer with a jeweler's glass looking at every JHP to ensure you haven't replaced the wadding with a tungsten sabot from Temu? Closest I've seen are most indoor ranges around me ban reloads, so I just bring a green box of 9mm and a white box of .45 and keep the reloads in the mags. ROs never bother doing shit because they just see the boxes and can't be bothered to look at the mags.
>>64681428>Austin's range situation is IMO pretty bad, as the good outdoor options have seemingly feel further out with worsening trafficNo kidding. Austin annexes like crazy then zones everything for apartments without planning anything or taking easements for turning lanes so you have a zillion people on country ass roads. They built an HEB 3 miles from me and it takes me the better part of an hour to get there, it's insane. Every time I go to Eagle Peak it seems like it takes 10 more minutes than last time and it'll only get worse as the hill country gets flattened and turned into suburbia.
>>64681441I still can't get over how okay leaving your gun around at a decent range can be. Did you even touch it?

>>64681733It's clearly AI, the debris magically becomes a sheet metal cover looking thing instead of fragments or something remotely resembling the truck that was there. People just don't bother thinking because it's better to immediately defend whatever side you think is "your" team and also everything looks like shit on a phone screen

Last one dead. These threads need to be more common.Between a Mossberg 590 and a Remington 870, which should I keep? Recently was given an 870 and I don't really care to have two shotguns.

>>64682610>7.62x51 Swiss P AP is from 1998 and M993 originates in the 1970s. They aren't really modern designs a la AP11LR, 7N37, 7N51, DM151, M1158, or the .300 / .338 heavy hitters.Aside from 7N37 and XM1184 the real "heavy hitter AP" is rare as hell, even in military service. And I remember that people on X.com were saying that the Russians don't even issue tungsten-core small arms any longer, that everything people are finding is all steel-core these days.Rusanon, is that true?
>>64681356This is one of those things, I can't really tell if it's cool or cringe.
>>64682852>Aside from 7N37 and XM1184 the real "heavy hitter AP" is rare as hell, even in military service.Don't forget XM1154, the .338 Lapua ADVAP, and M1162, the .338 Norma version of AP529. Swedes have a better M948, Germans run DM151 and .300Win DM131. The issue is less that it's rare, more that it is held in reserve for when it's actually needed. As a hypothetical, I'd be willing to bet that if Buffalo dipshit rolled a pair of XSAPIs or Adept Collosi instead of RMA 1093s, that'd make the news and there would be a kneejerk adoption of exotic AP across numerous PDs.Active shooters are bad. Heavily armored active shooters are worse. >Russians don't even issue tungsten-core small arms any longer, that everything people are finding is all steel-core these days.I'll let Rusanon answer, but they did recently upgrade their 7.62x54R "super AP" to 7N51, which is a longer-core beefed up 7N37. I think it's primarily steel core but primo units get the very good stuff. Obviously it all takes back stage versus artillery, drones, etc.
>>64682883>everything people are finding is all steel-core these days.I haven't been active service for a long time, so I'm not up to date on current state of supply in the services. But if I were to hazard an educated guess, the operating word here is>findingServices, units and even teams within one unit can vary wildly in the gear and supply they're rolling, depending on the task. Basic bitch infantry is holding the trenches with 74s or early 12s, clad in Ratnik or even obsolete steel-plate bullshit like Kora-Kulon, and shooting basic bitch PS or PP steel-cores. VDV trench raiders, the ones that new shorty AK-12K are made for, or the marine assaulters are most likely stomping around in Strelok gear with new exxtra thicc Granits and rocking hard-steel BP, or tungsten BS\PPBS ammo. And even they probably don't take it to the range, saving it for the real action. Similarly, nobody's gonna stick SNB precision penetrators into a PKM belt, those are probably only issued to SSO sniper teams, along with the new hotness in .338. tl;dr the dudes slinging carbide ammo don't leave it lying around and rarely leave anyone alive to find their ammo and report back about it. >>64682883>that'd make the news and there would be a kneejerk adoption of exotic AP across numerous PDs.Then and ONLY then, and not really widely. Liability is a huge concern for "democratic" police forces, and thus possibility of overpen is to be avoided at any cost. It was US LE that drove most of the development of pistol-caliber hollow-points and other high-energy-transfer projectiles, self-defence crowd caught up later.That being said, yes, you should thank God that would-be mass-shooters are universally retarded.

How is Ukraine able to receive this quality of video feed and send controls to low fly drones targeting airbases inside of Russia?
>>64683085That's easy to explain. 99% of the time no one gives a shit about CCTV footage for random buildings, so they just use default name and password to remotely operate. This is doubly true for a place like Russia where people are lax, drunk and cowardly. So most likely the Ukrainians just hacked them and the CCTV cameras had zero or lax security.
>>64683085dude lol those ip cameras are open on the public interneteven retards on 4chan (higher iq retards than you tho) have been browsing them for fun for decadesit was a nice way to see the world before google started driving camera cars literally everywhereand those ip cameras are mostly as unsecured as they were back then
>>64682824Impressive hit but even the sars retired these already. They couldn't find a better target?
>>64683101>>64683109so you're telling me the Russians had live cameras inside their own military base that were unsecured and open to public internet
>>64683005The decline is accelerating yes but they would have been so fucked right now if not for the orange retard. Basically a whole year with nothing meaningful from the US and yet major setbacks/losses militarily and economically are mounting.
