A fiber optic cable wouldn't help in this case. The cable just stops jamming. The idea behind the tech in OP is to literally fry the electronics. Not just jam the signal...and what's pictured is decades old tech ironically.

Look, most people are too stupid to understand what types of directed energy systems are currently available to the USA and many other first world nations.

They are showing you tech that was developed probably back in the 80s.

A horn antenna EMP gun is nothing new.

Read the 2024 addition of High Powered Microwave Weapons (forgot the author but will try to find the link in a bit)

We have microwave tech far and beyond what is pictured in OP.

Laser tech is also more advanced than what is commonly described by the main stream.

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.

Many of them will come apart. Some are hinged and use a locking mechanism, in others the breech face and striker/hammer components can screw out of the back of the gun, or the barrel screws off the front. In this case it looks like the barrel screws out. I've also seen quite a few open-bolt designs where you simply drop the round in the chamber, run it home with a finger, and then extract with a stick down the barrel - think the Liberator pistol or the GB-22. The really cheap tubular zip guns are usually meant to be disposable anyway

I kid of course. Somaliland has far more legitimacy than Israel.

Also if you have an IQ greater than 80 you may recognize this as a very basic move to butter them up to accept Palestinian refugees. Israel doesn't do anything for free and have never once done anything that wasn't for their benefit and at someone else's expense in their entire history

I have a big boar 50 that is a nice gun (I bought it because of tremors and jurassic park). I have wanted to get one of their 1911s but prices went stupid on them around covid and even a beat to shit 45 win mag was around $1500, and i'd rather not have a 45 win mag just because that's a pain to find evaporate.

I was told freedom group bought out grizzly for their equipment and then sat on them because they were cancer. Not sure if that's true but fuck them anyway.

If it's under 2500 i'd probably do a 50 or 44. No idea what the price will be if it isn't vaporware.

In practice, spare barrels weren't carried into the bush. Do I think that's good for the gun to be fired a lot on 1 barrel? No. But it's how they did it, and from what I've been able to tell, historically speaking, no one actually changed barrels out as much as they were supposed to in combat.

There used to be a hard radar floor of 20m below which radar would only sporadically detect you so any radar guided missile was useless. Now there is instead some simulation the details of which I don't know but there is no longer any hard cutoff where you're 100% safe. Effectively this means that being very low only reduces detection range somewhat.

A problem with Nuclear Option is that stealth is almost useless because of the low ranges and wide radar coverage. A radome Medusa can detect the stealthiest craft in the game at 40 km which is the majority of the default map. The second map makes them more usable.

Thoughts about Baofeng radios?

>Review it, radio thread.
Did a fact check on your amp statement and TRUE! Bhut... from the Amazon description for the B-tech V25 (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076H972DH/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il):
>Our amplifier is designed to adapt its output power based on the input it receives, optimizing performance across a range of 2W to 6W inputs. At the lower end, an input of 2W is amplified to produce an output of approximately 20W. As the input power increases, so does the output, reaching its peak efficiency with a 6W input, which yields an impressive output of around 40W in the center of the band. On average, users can expect 30W output, providing a substantial boost to transmission power. It's important to note that while the amplifier can accept up to 10W of input power, amplification levels plateau after 6W, ensuring device safety and longevity without further increasing output.
>amplification levels plateau after 6W
Again, all of which is true. But they say "designed" as though Third Order Intercept (TOI) and compression are intentional rather than inherent.
>reaching its peak efficiency with a 6W input
The UV-9R I bench tested did not meet output power spec for low or high setting. Getting 6W Pout from a 5R would be optimistic, based upon my testing. That said, if your amp is working, you should get an additional 15-20W in TX power. Now, will this be linear across the band? DOUBTFUL! Pout will NOT be linear from Fl to Fh. If anything, they would tune output power to spec at Fc and fuck it! Gain flatness from Hl to Fh would be a dice roll! Does a few dB in fltness matter? Meh. If there is a spec, it matters. You can likely find this cheaper that the Amazon price, but you won't find a better return policy than Amazon's. That's worth a few extra bucks, imo. Do you want more power? Add an amp. But that won't improve your RX sensitivity. Protip, never trust a commie! In this regard, they lie about thier products meeting specs! Suprised?
