The dragon is the size of the ones in GOT, use GOT as the point of reference for most everything to be honest. If you want to be a furry abut this you can do a version where the dragon(s) are smart cookies that can talk and junk.
>>64751752there once was a great wizard named Jamsheed The Brown, the master of this spellalas, he has fallen into shadow
>>64733770I put in 1905 as a conservative date, because the existence of dragons date would probably have done much to speed up evolution of any and all technologies related to air war>If dragons could be mass produced and specialized relatively cheaplyI assumed that would have already happenedPercheron dragons as heavy bombers and troop transports, Arabian dragons for aerial combat, tiny Mongol dragons who eat little and fly far for daring SF raids way behind enemy lines
>>64744703a dragon may have, oh, say about a centimeter of alternating nanoscale (natch) layers of chitin and nacre with a very hard tooth enamel like outer layer and that would allow it to laugh at muskets from 100 paces alreadyin such a circumstance development of long rod penetrators would happen much sooner than it has irl
>>64727411depending on how intelligent the dragon we might be living in a world of rival dragon kingdoms, probably way less advanced technologically and certainly no airplanes because that would directly oppose their power and its hard to oppose a government that has 500 years of experience clinging to that power, maybe forces of competition between rival kingdoms still allow for innovation but it would probably stifle it overall.
>>64751725The same thing horses do maybe? Police work, beasts of burden and status animals. It would not be unreasonable to assume that dragons would just like the horse or dog seen 1000's of years of domestication and would come in different size and shapes for different purpose. One particular job dragons could be exceptionally good would be quick search and rescue operations>It could take hours for even the best dog or horse team to reach a mountain top and help some injured person>Instead just send a rider on a dragon and they would be on the scene in minutes and then just fly back with the injured to a local hospital instantly.>If dragons also have a very good sense of smell they would be very quick to find people that are lost in the woods.Militaries and royal familes would keep dragons just for the status and history of it since they probably would have had a very close history with dragons since after all, no military can ignore the power of dragon cavalry and no royal family could claim divine right to rule if they cannot tame and use dragons in the name of god. Navies would also have proto-aircraft carriers in their wooden ship fleets since having a dragon in a sea battle would be decisive.On a side note. Instead of just modern women obsessed with horses, you would also have women obsessed with dragons.>Sometimes you would just "know" what happen behind the scenes....

>>64748081Realistically speaking so long as you have nuclear weapons or even something more devastating, the eternal argument ends with sword>shield. Consequentially being a fuckoff huge target would simply end poorly for you as missiles, typical artillery, or even nuclear landmines would mean more agile and attritable, not to mention pre-existant forces would remove you from the equation. Unless you address many or all of these factors its not really feasible enough people give the OK to dedicate the necessary engineering expertise to design this and then filter resources away from the front to arm and protect this thing.
I don't understand why Hitler, Dr. Porsche, and others continued to downplay the importance of the ability to recover, repair, and re-equip stranded AFVs. The only trailers I know of in Germany capable of carrying heavy tanks were a few examples used at test sites.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1b52tVlHc84Is that a fucking pistol real sight in the red dot cut out? Is PSA inventing a shotgun that can't be used as a shotgun because it has pistol sights for some reason? the receiver is objectively the worst place to mount a red dot on a shotgun. the best option would be if you could get it low profile on the barrel or as a qd on a side rail like an AK, though the barrel, especially if you can get the bottom of the red dot below the receiver would be great because then you could have a red dot mounted for HD or turkey or if you're in one of the like 3 states that still require slug guns for durr and then you can take off the barrel, the red dot remains zeroed and you can put on a different barrel for birds or clays I really don't understand this psa 570 thing. it looks like they just designed a gun to compete with turkshit and the mav 88 to be a ghetto blaster for blowing up trash on blm land
>>64751174you know remingshit went under right? it's just mossberg or turk/chinese shit or the used market at that price point I don't even think it's actually mossberg at that price point, it's maverick. the cheapest made in America mossbergs on PSA's store are $415 slug guns. the cheapest nonmav, 12 gauge non shockwave smooth bore mossberg on psa's website is $488. Granted I'd probably trust a mav 88 over turkshit
>>64751207I guess I don't see the point of buying this when you can buy the Mav 88 that comes with two different length barrels for $299https://www.sportsmans.com/shooting-gear-gun-supplies/shotguns/mossberg-maverick-88-field-security-combo-12-gauge-3in-blued-pump-shotgun-185in28in/p/1506620
>>64751394yeah I agree. the only advantage is I think the PSA is made in the US whereas the mav is made in mexico. but if you care about it being made in the USA you can just buy a regular mossberg. Mavs are probably fine anyway. most of the budget shit on a mav88 is budget shit mossberg was doing on the 500 until they bought maverick arms, at which point they slightly upgraded the 500
>>64751402didn't know any of that thanks
>>64751394They already said the PSA will be convertible between pump and semi auto. That alone gives it a purpose to exist. And if the semi auto version is less than fucking 1100 dollars, it'll be a pretty good deal.

It's a SAW, not a GPMG. Around that time, many countries were adopting the Minimi and M249.>>64747366The M249 is by NATO for NATO, the Ultimax is by Singapore and was adopted by Sinagpore and neighboring countries. No western country was ever going to adopt a LMG from a random country in Asia that barely had the manufacturing infrastructure to shit out the million of them NATO would need.You could make an argument about the mag feed system being an odd choice for an LMG. Fast reload but eh, belts. For the record, SOCOM used the Ultimax in limited numbers.
Why didn't the HK-33 catch on?
>>64751461Because G11 flopped.No really. Russians always wer suckers to copy foreign in small arms., they may have indigenous projects but they didn't get the approval.

>>64751067from my understanding, the 3d printed lowers, implying you get them from a good place also last a long time. I personally when the ASD route because I wanted aluminum but I would've been fine with a 3d print tooPlease note that one advantage of leber lowers is availability. ASD lowers while good, takes a crazy amount of time to be made and shipped, but it is a one of a kind product that's backed with good CS and is designed by the guy who made the leber in the first place.

>>64749374Why not go for warrant? What gave you cold feet?>>64749576I strongly recommend trying to get an option 4 (airborne) or option 19 (duty station of choice) contract for Drum, Bragg, Campbell, or Hawaii. As infantry, being in a light unit = vastly better training and better chances of actually deploying. I also strongly recommend starting to use tuition assistance the minute you get to your duty station and starting a gym routine and basic running routine ASAP if you haven't already.>>64749600Shut the fuck up. Being near a tracked vehicle = endless maintenance hours and shitty units that spend half their lives at NTC. I would know, I was in an ABCT for 5 fucking years. If anon signs up looking to do cool shit and ends up at some hellhole like Fort Riley he'll blow his brains out.
>>64750284Prefacing I was enlisted for 10 years, and am now an SNA - still in training so I can't offer any real fleet insight. I will say that working with admin, pay and in general, other support staff is so much easier. Those types tend to give you the run around if you're junior/mid enlisted. Going from a more senior enlisted position to being a junior officer, the cultural differences are there, and there is a bit of a sense of uneasiness starting "fresh" again, and not really knowing where you stand. Like I was a good Corpsman and NCO, but will I be a good pilot and Officer? Since you're going straight in, its kinda better in that way. With that said. Don't plan on failing out of OCS. Its actually quite difficult to, but besides that, yes keep running. The longer distance stuff is important for building your endurance for the PRT and anything else. In OCS your last PRT is the one that really matters (though, if you fail multiple physical events in OCS, you'll earn demerits, and could go to a board sent back a class, or worse - attrited). Before I went OCS my PRT scores were around a good-excellent medium, but I maxed out my PRT by the time I left. They're actually pretty good about getting you in shape. Just practice HIIT workouts, running 3 mi is good, but try to push it to 5-6 once or twice a week and you'll be glad you did. That's what I did anyway.
>>64749600that shit sucks he would be better off going SoF
You retards are so useless, when I asked if I should go to a different recruiter last thread, none of you mentioned that I would have to start the paperwork bullshit (SF86, references, history) over again.Unfortunately went back to my recruiter who took two and a half months of leave, only to hear from him that he's waiting for the recruiting station commander to come back from leave in two weeks before I can proceed getting my waiver shit sorted.I feel like a dick trying to cheat on my recruiter now but also fuck me this is taking so god damn long, I haven't even signed a contract yet.
Anons I'm 27 years old, civilian, been working out hard for the past 4,5 years with decent results, not fat, masters degree, fluent in two languages, I love guns, I own a couple and have been shooting them regularly for years. I even worked full time as an instructor at a commercial range, and thats when I realized I want to work with guns for the rest of my life. I have had a couple of corporate desk jobs, but I don't think that's my calling. I have a strong military history in my family, my great grandfathers have fought in literally every theatre of WWII, my house is decorated with their medals. Despite that I have never even considered a military creer. That is untill past year or a year and a half or so as shit around the world continued to escalate, I realized that I eventually will serve anyway, so might as well serve now on my terms. Is going to a military school beforehand a good idea? I also would like to attempt joining special forces instead of regular military, do you think its possible? How out of touch am I?
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.

Why does Japan always have such a strong navy?
>>64749237It's navy was actually kind of crappy pre-Meiji; their vessel of choice was the bune which was somewhere between a barge and a cog and could regularly be outfought by the western merchantmen at the time; even the ancient Spanish galleons, some of which that were literally over a hundred years old when they were finally retired in the early 19th century could take on a Japanese fleet all on their own. Commodore Perry's little trip was what spurned them into shaping up into a serious naval power, and it was the Scots who showed them the ropes of a modern naval manifest.
>>64751034So the Japanese navy quickly became the favorite child, and the place where ambitious families would send their men to be officers, in comparison into the army. Also, now it was the 1920s and Japan was realizing that they’d won every fight they’ve gotten themselves into, and they were surrounded by a bunch of kind of minimally-tapped markets, thanks to Europe being so far away. So they began to fancy themselves an empire. empires need logistics, empires need force projection, empires need massive navies. so yes, Japan is an island, but also basically every possible factor worked together to make sure that their navy received a ridiculous amount of attention. Their Civil War was won on the idea of making a strong navy, they gave the strongest faction that won that war control of the Navy, the Navy kicked russia’s ass in the first public display of Japan as a modern country to the delight of everyone the government, and then they wanted to be an empire.
