Where my arm chair generals at? What the actual best way to pull this off?

Apparently only springtime is possible because other than that the strait is too choppy.

Eastern shore is all rocks so you can’t even do a landing over there.

Also can’t do any of the tactics from ukraine since basements aren’t a thing due to the water table, there a ton of parking garages and subway stations though.

>countries with just send their ships in
The only thing the rest of the world wants from Taiwan to that degree are semiconductors. Those won't keep the lights on or feed people, so the PRC could easily afford to let those out. They could even hold that back as a "compromise" move that allows western countries to present a descalation to their people. Also, if they implement a sanction schedule that blocks all ship trade with countries that have flagged ships going direct to Taiwan, then who do you think is going to be favored? Model it on the Jones Act that kills international trade with Puerto Rico.

Do I think it will work very well? Not really, but it isn't unfeasible.

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.

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?

>Large carnivores were distributed uniformly across the globe? Is this true? I don’t know why, but I always had the impression that India and especially subsaharan Africa got really unlucky with their local megafauna, and those further north got lucky with much more favorable conditions vis a vis being eaten. Though I guess it could just be that Europeans hunted the carnivores to extinction.

Carnivorous megafauna in the northern Eurasia and North America died out because the entire ecosystem collapsed with the end of the Ice Age while the climate in Africa and India is more or less similar as it was in the Pleistocene. Europe and America had massive carnivorous hyenas, lions, saber toothed cats, dire wolves, cave bears, lions and leopards and for the most part their entire ecosystem depended on mammoths generating mammoth steppe by preventing forests from growing.

When humans/climate change killed off the mammoths the environment changed completely, the other herbivores that evolved to live in steppe environments died out and all the hyperspecialized predatory megafauna that ate them lost out to more generalist carnivores like modern wolves, bears and mustelids. It's also easier to find food in the winter time in tropical climates so they were less reliant on hunting megafauna to survive year round which is why you still have elephants, rhinos and huge ungulates etc in Africa or India but they were hunted to extinction in Eurasia and America

What tools for self defense would you recommend for someone in Europe to have when shit goes down. There are black powder revolvers shotguns and rifles, but you can't buy them everywhere in Europe. There are crossbows and bows but what is really their capacity to defend, and of course air rifles, in some countries they are unrestricted in some countries they are cucked and they are a hassle to have around in the case of an emergency. Better yet what should everybody own, not just weapons, in case they want to survive more than 72 hours.

Go to your local drug/whore den three times. Buy some pussy or coke the first two, say nothing about anything else. Establish a presence and a willingness to "get dirty" (do business with him). This is to establish legitimacy, show him you're not a cop. The third time, ask the nice Albanian man to show you his finest wares. He'll only briefly think about stabbing you and likely show you a shitty combloc pistol. Go ahead and take whatever you can get. If for some reason this is a regular business of his and he shows you more, I recommend grabbing whatever your nation's police/military uses. Grab some hollowpoints if you can.

When i got laid off from my cushy tech job they gave me a big fuckin blanket of a severance package, cashed out all my vacation hours, gave a lump sum of estimated medical benefits charges, all that stuff.
I used that to keep stable for about a year and find another job, get a new apartment, and buy some things i needed to buy.
My absolute last 700 dollars from that pile of cash was used on this cool lil guy.

The best part is that i've been looking for a beretta compact forever but didn't like that only Landberg Tactickstein has them in their most basic configuration. By swapping the slide and barrel it removes most of the LTT branding except for the serial number starting with LTT.

We have just seen the US carry out Operation Absolute Resolve, a flawless raid in Venezuela but there's so much more than what meets the eye.
The fact that the Nightstalkers could just infil and exfil on gunships guns blazing is insane in the era of gay drones and MANPADS.
They didn't even have to worry about the overall IADS. IR dazzlers or just shooting back was very effective against any fuckers that tried to get a shot off. More than half of the air assets in theater being SIGINT and EW just shows the importance of spectral dominance in addition to SEAD and as SEAD itself. It's obvious Growlers used their brand spanking new mid-band Growler pods to jam fire control radars, F-35s used their Barracuda suites, but what the EC-130H's were doing could be anyone's guess. But the power went out and that says something.

Why aren't ballistic submarines the backbone of world navies? Why haven't surface ships been relegated to carrier protection and amphibious operations? Why not make SLBMs out of RIM-66s and Standard missiles and Tomahawks and ASROCs?

I bet in the future we will have submarine carrier either drones only or planes too. The only issue is that they wouldn't be great for scouting since it would reveal their position and ruin their greatest strenght.
Also submarine lack the presence of surface ship, how can you patrol and show force if it's all hidden? Maybe better for war but not as useful during peace.
>>
>>64741566
Something no-one has said yet: Submarines are inherently slow. They wall out much, much faster than surface ships. They need vastly more horsepower-per-knot and each extra knot takes exponentially more power. More power and/or speed = more noise unless you spend absolutely appalling amounts of money and even that won't save you after a while.
Boomers are expensive as fuck. Only a handful of nations have ever built them. Subs that can surface to launch are a little bit easier to make, but lose their primary advantage.
Naval reactors are even harder to make than a subsurface launch platform.
Not only is a sub expensive as fuck to make, it's incredibly hard to maintain. Unlike a surface ship, you can't do a bodged patch job on a weak section of hull and make it home, and any one of dozens of systems failing is a death sentence rather than an embarassing limp home.
