What are the strategic implications of Russia deploying (literal) cavalry wave attacks against Ukrainian positions and drones in the last month of 2025? Has the eyebrow been raised?
>>64687416Electronic components are usually most comfy around room temperature, but can reliably do 0 to +75 °C, with margins to -10 and +85, reliability rapidly dropping beyond that unless it is specially designed to deal with lower/higher.I'd be more concerned about the battery life, and the plastics/metals (stress and cold do not mix well)
>>64683618I'm going to say this because I wholeheartedly believe this:UKRAINE COULD HAVE WON THE WAR IN 2022.If it wasn't for chickenshit politicians, fifth columnists on FSB payrolls in Europe and the US and NAFO trannies believing in wishful comicbook thinking, we would have been done now if we gave Ukraine what they needed instead of pussying out over "muh red lines" and dragging things out. When Russia started retreating from Kyiv in April 2022, we should have just given Ukraine everything they asked for, ignoring Russia. F-16's, Leopards, Abrams, ATACMs in large quantities would have made a huge difference in 2022 when the frontline was more fluid, when they can't do shit now in 2025. Ukraine would've had way even more success in the Kharkiv and Kherson offensives as a result, meaning more difficulty in Russia fortifying the lines for 2022.Instead we played after Russia's tune and now we're entering the FOURTH FUCKING year of this static shitshow of a drone war and it's costing us MORE money in the long run if we'd just gone all-in in 2022. Now war-weariness is kicking in and social media is plastered full of "muh peace negotiation" shitskins and boomers who easily sell out their country. TL;DR if we gave Ukraine more WEAPONS they would've won.

Giving an update to the bssquirts drop in, I put it in my ar15 lower and it worked when dry firing my 556 DD upper. It also worked when dry firing my 9mm upper on the same lower, the lower initially had some issues with the 9mm upper because I had an extended kak bolt extension with the law tactical folder. I took out the extended extension and put the standard one back in and the upper worked just fine. I sacrifice some mass but oh well, hopefully I have enough mass that I dont get an oob from bolt bounce. I dont have to cut any weight on the bcg btw because I took the weight out entirely to use a law folder.From my understanding glock lowers etc.. need the ar9 lever, but if the lower is an ar15 lower and you use a conversion, the normal lever works fineI'm assuming the ar9 lever you dont have to cut your bolt weight either?I'm going to the range to actually test this soon

Are you prepared for Nuclear War? How do you even deal with widespread radiation? Apart from going south to Argentina
>>64686097Shut the fuck up with your pedantic bullshit you moron and go educate yourself on why that place is actually closed off, god damned idiot. The mods should ban people like you for these incredibly low quality shitposts where you attack people who actually know what they're talking about you dumbass child.
Fuel shortage, no sea freight, widespread shortages of low value dry goods like sugar. Fighting over existing stockpiles as commercial groups try to buy everything up, backyard sugar recycling, buybacks of sodas, jams.But the number of primary commodities this would effect, all at once, it could cause very serious issues. And fuel shortages would see non essential travel restricted, which would mean urban areas would have to be walled in, to manage the issue of fuel rationing in the countrysideAnd what I've seen in history, this leads to regional price differences where a can of beans might cost ten quid in London and two in Belfast, but nobody is allowed to drive to Belfast or even knows what is worth what. So immediately you get black marketeering on a massive scale threaten the public support for authority. Then stupid rumours and lack of trust leads to rioting. Like the Boston tea party, food scarcity is the typical cause of revolt. So I suppose I'm preparing to lead a general revolt when someone nukes a major shipping hub and we can't get petrol or food.
>>64683800The radiological fallout is vastly overstated. Cold War total atmospheric detonations did fuck-all to total radiation levels except in the fucking craters they made.The danger is large scale fires, overwhelming emergency services etc. If your city suffers a strike and you are not in acute need of assistance, just stay inside, conserve heat, battery, water etc. Help your neighbours, organize as much as possible.Hiroshima was not flattened by the nuke, the nuke started a large fire which consumed it due to being built out of wood and paper.

>>64687150>thanks to the Scandinavians a few months ago6.5CBJ has been around for ages. Ian’s audience only just recently learned of its existence. I remember there were like 10 threads up that week of guys asking why the army doesn’t just adopt this new 6.5CBJ wunderpatron lol. The tldr is that it’s a one-trick pony and its trick isn’t even exclusive to it. Any body armor can be defeated with an arbitrary amount of energy, so long as it’s concentrated in a small enough area. a 9mm tungsten-core discarding sabot would work just as well.
Discuss cheap solutions to the drone problem.Not welcome:>dronefags>laser fags>missile fags>unknown technology fags
There's really no such thing as a drone, either talk about SSL (your little quad copter things), loitering munitions (mini global hawk type things) and medium range glide bombs.Because there's a fairly clear cut distinction in how they attack a target. Glide bombs are much like cruise missiles on the threat they present, point defence will wipe out ssl, but guided munitions are generally needed for loitering munition. And the cost and threat level play into that. For example glide bonds are a legitimate threat to artillery and stationary AA. They're hard to detect over the distances they can cross, point defence isn't usually sufficient, there's a many-to-one threat against hard targets like missile guidance and command centres. Ssl are typically deployed from close range so targeting the operator is an entirely legitimate response and this can be a symmetrical fight. Loitering munitions, tricky in that you don't know when they are receiving signal, often to small and too cheap to target with aircraft, aircraft which would be more venurable at those altitudes.
>>64687203No one is discussing glide bombs or cruise missiles here nor is anyone going to use your gay terminology. Just call them FPV drones.
>>64681585Omnidirectional EMP device strapped to a returning boomerang. Activate it in your hand, throw it so it curves near the drone, distruping it's electronics. Returns to your hand when it has done its job.Just design it to use AA batteries and you can use it over and over. Might need an araming mechanism where rotating activates the EMP device.
>>64681706>piclmfao i'm dead
The solution to drones, is in fact, more dakka. But what kind of dakka? Well, the targets are these cheapo chang drones. That means construction is primarily plastic. Plastic snaps easily, especially if its spinning at 3000+ rpm like the propellers. Therefore the solution is a fully automatic, belt fed, 4 bore gun, 48in barrel, full choke, bigass brake, and you bolt that shit onto a technical or in the ground.Unless fuckin moses is piloting that drone. No one is getting a drone within 50 yards a with the sea of lead that thing will produce.Also a 12 gauge gatling gun would also work.

Can some revolvers just not take hollow points? I have a snub 38spl that squibs atleast once every box (sometimes once every load) no matter the box or brand, and someone told me it was because of hollow points. Are some revolvers just made for Fmj/ball ammo?It has a 1.75' barrel but I'm still getting tired of hammering bullets out of it.
>>64682450Cylinder and barrel alignment may be bad.
>>64685150>>64685417That's the bot schizo, ignore him.Why would an ammo company put out an ad on /k/ that says their ammo is bad
>>64682450Some autoloaders have problems with hp, sounds like you're experiencing the revolver equivalent. Doesn't always make sense they're hanging up on the feed ramp, but they are. Probably having a similar issue with the forcing cone.
>>64682450are you actually retarded
>>64686034>sounds like you're experiencing the revolver equivalent.There's no such thing.>Doesn't always make sense they're hanging up on the feed ramp,No, it makes perfect sense.>Probably having a similar issue with the forcing cone.No, that's not probable in the slightest, and the fact that you think it might be shows you're an idiot beyond words.
Are they an effective, cheaper alternative to heavy aircraft like the AC130 for air support?>Pic-related is an AC235 by KADDB and Orbital ATK
>>64686641Because no one probably wants them. It's a niche aircraft for actually fighting a near peer, so it's something that you'd only really want if you're (a) doing a lot of expeditionary fighting against dirt farmers and (b) have a large enough air force that you can get away with the highly specialized birds. Basically, the USAF and the pre-2022 RuAF would be the only real customers.
