What if you made an entire city out of UHPC,How hard would it be to root out the defenders?
>>64732722>Proper drainageVery true. Germans 200 years ago knew this>t. Posting from inside a 200 year old German house on formerly German clay.The roof fell apart and it nearly went down because the outside brick is cooked but the inside brick isn't and would just wash away. Gutter water also had to be sent a metre or two away from the foundations to prevent further cracking in the walls due to sinking in wet clay.
Knowing nothing, looking at >>64720442 makes me wonder about rebar, does curving it's form reduce it's integrity? I imagine if it was that way as a consequence of bending it on site the same alloy capable of such wouldn't have the weight bearing capacity to not bend under load while curing, but say you mold, an alloy incapable of cold bending to the shape desired like a blacksmith would make a fancy iron gate then coat it. Would any issue arise?
>>64748012It depends. Steel rebar comes in different grades, some are lower-carbon grain-agnostic and can elongate or deform a lot more at the cost of lower ultimate tensile strength (~280Mpa), they bend into eights or a knot without issues. The (roughly) 400Mpa tensile strength rebar that's most common on construction sites is a medium-carbon slightly grain-aligned version, it has a minimum cold bending radius allowed by code. Past that, high-carbon, highly grain-aligned stuff with >600Mpa >1000Mpa tensile strength has larger minimum cold bending radii, once you get past about 1500Mpa tensile they're usually made as twisted cable to retain the ability to bend.

>>64720863>cures faster than normalthat's interestingi've read about mixing coal ash particles into concrete, and that's supposed to make it stronger at the cost of curing slowercould you make the giga-nigga concrete mix also cure slower, without making it shitty? if it could be done, waiting an extra 30 days for it to harden seems worth it when you're building something that'll last a thousand years
Skydagger, a Baykar affiliate in Türkiye, is now delivering 10000 FPV attack drones to the Turkish Armed Forces every month. The company has a target of producing 1 million units annuallyhttps://x.com/haluk/status/2010371711334572432

When the Geran/Shahed drones first appeared, I figured Russia would use them smartly in a classic SEAD/DEAD role: send waves of them to force Ukrainian IADS to light up radars and reveal positions, then follow up with VKS aircraft, with anti-radiation missiles to systematically dismantle those defenses. Russia instead has chosen the most brain-dead and wasteful approach, by treating the Geran/Shaheds s as nothing more than slow, low-cost cruise missiles hurled directly at static infrastructure targets, while leaving the overwhelming majority of Ukraine's air defenses intact and free to keep operating. They're banking entirely on brute-force volume and saturation to get a few through, completely abandoning any effort at SEAD/DEAD. But the thing is that they're not even achieving any kind of saturation effect since, the launches are scattered haphazardly across random cities, regions, and targets all over Ukraine that changes every night (some they they go after energy infrastructure, some other go after some depots, some others they try to hit some cities...), instead of making up their minds and concentrate them single high-value area, frontline sector, or even one major city at a time, and keep hitting them until achieving disruption or collapse. This is also precisely why so few targets are actually hit despite hundreds being launched every night, and so many of them are intercepted.By contrast, even in the recent U.S. operation in Venezuela, the LUCAS drones (the American Shahed clones) were properly integrated into a coordinated SEAD/DEAD package.
>>64749851>>64750979Israel and Iran both licensed the design from the South African company that ended up with the rights to the Dornier DAR. Iran evidently couldn't come up with the necessary electronics or really needed a shitty cruise missile, because they designed the Shahed as a prop powered cruise missile rather than an anti radiation drone.
>>64751334>not the impression you'd get from kiev, odessa, dnepropetrovsk, krivoy rog, and whole host of other big cities pounded with impunity every night now.>ukrainian air defenses have been mostly absent or imponent repelling attacksOP's pictures speaks of 25-60 hits over the whole country for 465-650 drones launched by Russia per strike wave.That's 5-10% hit rate, which seems to indicate either that the AA is doing its job or that russian drones have a very high rate of failure.For those drones that do hit, if those were surgical strikes against worthy targets, you would have a point. But most are just hitting appartment blocks.At 50kg warehead per Geran, 60 hits are equivalent to maybe a 1/6 of a single B2 run. It's also about 1/1000th of what the Allies were dropping daily on Germany by 1944. So that's not even close to what we could call strategic bombing here.

Starting with this piece of shit. Any gun that gets a cracked frame within 20,000 rounds is an irredeemable hunk of absolute dogshit. That isn’t even a high round count for 9mm. Glock runs circles around beretta.
>>64749953Thank you.
>>64751099checked, wrong
>>64748928Beretta is all about style.If you need to use a gun against another person, then your life has gone down the wrong path.Glock is a plastic mass-produced weapon for the ghetto.
>>64749943The infamous slide fatigue failures were in italian-manufactured slides, you know that right?
>>64749953Nothing overrated bout a Glawk. "Glock perfection" is a good meme but I think everyone knows there's nothing special to em. They're popular because they check all the boxes for blue-collar sensibilities - cheap, reliable, light, you can get one in any sane size & caliber combination you want, and it'll last long enough to pass on to your grandkids. That fits the bill for 90% of people.
I am about to import 80,500 of these indian hesbee 22 short single shot handguns. They are currently in transit being shipped from India.They have sat in storage as they were built in 1959 as gunlaws became more restricted in India. If you were in my shoes, how do I make this business venture successful. I purchased each pistol at 2160 rupees (around 24$) and they cost me ($1500 for import and $5000 in shipping) so i am in for abit under $2mil. Do you think people will actually buy these or should I put my house for sale ASAP?

There’s been a noticeable lack of innovation in tactical gear for over a decade now. A Delta operator in 2026 looks nearly indistinguishable from one in 2016. Why are we in this gear plateau? Have we reached the maximum potential for development?

The ziggers have come up with another brilliant plan to counter drones, walking tents! Guessing mostly for night ops to reduce thermal signature? Because these are definitely not good for day time at least. Though it'd be hilarious to see them try assaulting with these fucking things on.

What's the coolest fictional sword?
>>64718147>tfw faggots are too young to know about soul calibur
>>64747167Variable swords were monomolecular wires rigidified with a stasis field. Non-stasis uses did exist but tended to be variations of the same theme: really thin wire is unthinkably strong, so use it to cut things. One variant was a set of guided bolas in space, which could not be destroyed quickly because of course superconductors do not melt even when bathed in lasers. (Sure, the whole wire "instantly" heats to an averaged temperature, but that should still be many times the melting point. Niven seemed to put a miraculous superconductor of heat in any setting he could.)
