If you want a franco-german fighter aircraft, you'll have to wait until 2080 for them to forget how badly it went the last time they tried and start a new program. First flight in 2130.

So im working on a worldbuilding project inspired by the war on terror and im curious how /k/ thinks ground combat will look in like 200 years. Will armored vehicles have their own drone support systems? Will AI lead militaries? Will we have D-Day boat style dropships unloading soldiers in the middle of warzones? Will we finaly get mechs or will the square cube law still be a MASSIVE faggot?

200 years is a long time, 200 years ago flintlocks and muskets were being carried around by horse and cart.
My best guess is lasers, kenetic missiles and biological warfare but keep in mind my guess isn't going to be any better than these guys trying to to predict GPS guided bombs and drones.

Do whatever you want , if you want hard sci-fi it's going to take a shitload of research and if you want soft sci-fi it can be fantasy with techno-babble.
If you want mechs add mechs, if you want mechs that kind of make sense put them on a lower gravity planet.

That sort of shit is in the same chapter as chivalry and laws of war. They only happen when white people are fighting white people.

Niggers, browns and slopes have no concept of anything but maniacal slaughter. And yes, this includes Japan. It wasn't that long ago you could ask a Pacific theater vet and they would tell you the Japs were the first taste we got of the asian total lack of humanity in warfare.

And even whites are inhumane to other whites if the fight is over some stupid religious nonsense.

When, not if, but WHEN, white people fight again and there's no religion involved, these ideals will be re-applied.

Now that the Chink chimpout over the $11B Taiwan weapons deal and most recent numbers print from their imploding economy has wrapped up, I want to tally some numbers for the 'explicitly presented as the largest-ever military exercise around Taiwan'.
This exercise was also explicitly stated as a blockade exercise vs the strike exercises of 2024.
Taiwanese sources have reported that
>6:00 a.m. Dec 29 - 6:00 a.m. Dec 30, 130 PLA aircraft detected. 14 PLAN warships + 14 CCG vessels.
>6:00 a.m. Dec 30 – 6:00 a.m. Dec 31 Aircraft: 77 PLA aircraft detected. 17 PLAN warships + 8 CCG vessels.
What's so damming to me is that the area of operations for the exercises were 2x larger than that of the 2024, and 3x that of the 2022 Pelosi chimpout. Yet there were less aircraft than in 2024, 130 in a single day vs 150 in a single day. The sorties also started slow, taking till the mid afternoon to get to peak detection rates as per Taiwan MOD. So this is where I really get to the main bit. A blockade requires substantially more sorties, I'm talking 48 sorties just to get 8 planes on CAP for 24h. Yet the PLA did only 130 in a day, barely enough for a dozen planes to be on 24h CAP. There's just no excuse. You NEED to have CAP or else US and Jap planes can just sneak in and rape you. The second day is so pathetically bad with 77 aircraft so I don't even wanna talk about it, just assume it's 2x worse.

So you've got what is
>supposed to be the biggest exercise ever
>covering an area 2x bigger than previous ones
>supposedly have 1600 aircraft stationed east of Beijing
>yet can only muster up 130 sorties 6 hours later
Implessive. My theory is that the PLA airforce not only has a low readiness, but the logistics are so fucked that they actually can't turn around airplanes fast enough with things as basic as fuel.

"Two current ASML employees of Chinese nationality in the Netherlands told Reuters they have been approached by recruiters from Huawei since at least 2020."

Its was just like this in America which is how the chinks managed to steal so much know-how. First gen changs were hired to do R&D on sensitive stuff after they completed their university education in America. Of course almost all of them were spies. Greed and stupidity is the undoing of the American Empire.


BTW, a variant of this was also how Huawei became a major player in telecom. Ericsson sacked a lot of swedish engineers circa 2000 to replace them with cheap pajeets. The swedes were hired by Huawei to do R&D on the 3/4G tech they were developing at Ericsson. Fast forward 25 years and Ericsson is a marginalized tiny euro company while Huawei is a global giant.

I don’t really have my sights set on any guns. I’m more of an opportunistic buyer, so if I see something that I wouldn’t mind having, and the price is fair, then I may buy it, but I’ve kind of stopped chasing guns for now.

Now I’m kind of focused on bolstering my reloading components and ammo supply. Right now, prices seem to have bottomed out for almost everything, so we have about 2 years to stock up before prices start to go back up during the election year. I feel like I have a good supply of a lot of my ammo and reloading stuff, enough stuff to allow me to shoot for well over a decade in most calibers, but I’d like more.

These movies don't even try to have internal consistency with their combat and power dynamics.

Movie 1:
Navi have superior genetics and bodies but 3 different battles demonstrate that the training and tech of humans gives them a massive advantage. In the final battle Navi get a decent surprise off but then start getting whooped, it's only when nature itself turns against the humans that the Navi win.

Movie 2:
Recoms now exist, with the the superior weapons and tactical training combined with navi genetic superiority they should be unstoppable.
No
Neyteri goes angry mom mode and kills them even easier than she did normal humans in the last movie.
Not one recom or normal human scores a kill in this entire movie outside quaritch killing jake's son.

Movie 3:
See movie 2

You see this kind of plothole *constantly* in Gen-X moralfagging movies (cameron is gen-x in spirit). The point is they don't care, scientists in these kinds of movies NEVER care, the fact that they get to live out their lives on pandora and then die is all they want and it's supposed to be seen as a good thing.
I can't remember other examples off my head but you run into this all the time in 80s and 90s scifi movies. For all their obsession with intelligence they don't think long term and refuse to see how they're part of something bigger than themselves. And for all their ranting about how being selfish is bad they're extremely selfish and hedonistic. They don't care what happens after they die because why would they? They're dead. They're r/scientist posters.
Also in general you know how these kinds of people hate kids, it's actually amazing they didn't kill spider immediately.

Actual unironic retardation. The scientists in these movies are the only people thinking of the long term goals, since they want to avoid disrupting the Pandoran ecosystem by stripmining it, and would rather try to learn how to help Earth. The RDA just wants to extract as much profit as they can from Pandora short term.

>>64704201
Not personally much into racism, but it does boil down in large part to clan ties. Somaliland differs from Somalia proper for two main reasons: it was administered by a different colonial power, and its much more ethnically homogenous than the rest of Somalia. The isaaq clan predominates, and while there are still subclan beefs, there’s been a longstanding power sharing arrangement between the main isaaq sub clans. Somalia on the other hand is divided between all kinds of different clans and subclans who have been schwacking each other since the Siad Barre government fell and even before. You’ll see fighting in Somaliland by minority clans who want to challenge isaaq supremacy. Imagine that there were dozens of these groups who had equal numbers to the isaaq, and had to find some way to govern between them, and all were armed to the teeth, and Somaliland would look a lot more like Somalia proper. Hope this is racist enough.

>>64702174
The real redpill is that they started hitting ships partially as a response to Chinese and other foreign fishing companies coming in with their massive setups and pushing the locals around, including by actually attacking their boats. So at least at the start the conflict was between forms of violence legitimated by large corporate interests and powerful states and forms of violence used by underclasses. Decades later it’s a lot harder to defend, but yeah
>>
>>64704201
It's very complicated but basically Italians had a bit of land, Bongs had a bit of land, post WW2 it became all Bong owned and then they got independence. Everything was fine but the issue was the guys who controlled Somalia were of a specific tribe and resources were found in what is now called Somaliland, so Somalia wanted these resources to make money for themselves, so they paid another tribe who don't want independence but want autonomy inside Somalia to go and essentially invade and take the land 'legally' and in turn give it to Somalia. Somaliland was full of people who were much better educated and 'civil' due to being a former Bong colony and realized they were being fucked over, so said 'OK, we're going to go independent' and so a war started using the said above mechanics. There was also a brief (I dunno if it is still going) reunification with Bongland drive (there are images online you can go find) but it was likely - much like Hong Kong - merely around getting 'protection' so you can then get independence from a more reasonable government.

tl;dr Ex-Bong colony realizes that ex-Italian colony is full of retards and doesn't want to deal with them any more.

That's my point, it's not reliable enough to the USN's standards which makes sense when you consider how far they're supposed to be from home and repairs. That tenth of a percent seems inconsequential until you're off the coast of McDonald Island and you're several days away from repair if anything goes wrong. EMALS is objectively superior but we simply don't have it working to our standard and the chinks, wanting an easy propaganda win, pushed their half-baked EMALS out the door thinking it'll be okay because thier ships will never deploy further than The Philippines
