>but what is the ideal jungle support vehicle then
Helicopters

But I know you're asking about ground vehicles, and the answer is that this is one of two environments where legged vehicles are theoretically superior to wheeled or tracked options (the other environment being especially steep mountainous terrain, which also includes rock walls ie for amphibious landings). These vehicles would most likely not be bipedal - four or more legs simply makes the most sense for stability, mobility, and flexibility. In especially dense jungle you could theoretically have a vehicle with many prehensile limbs, like an octopus or perhaps an octopus with 20 thin tentacles spread across all aspects of its body, allowing it to move vertically and horizontally through tree canopies, both allowing for ambush tactics and avoiding ground impediments. But that's way beyond current technology, and probably too niche to ever happen even in the distant future.

>inb4 tards come out of the woodwork to say tracked vehicles are all you need for any rough terrain
No, they fucking are not. Dense jungle is completely impassable for all modern ground vehicles. Deep Amazon settlements are often accessible only by river or air. Let's take a bulldozer as an example, as it will be better at traversing jungle than any tracked military vehicle. Would that bulldozer be able to get through pic related? Yeah, it would, albeit slowly if you're not using defoliants. But how about multiplying that picture times 100? How long would it take the dozer to push through? That would be about half a mile, and if the terrain isn't flat, it will be even worse. And if you do try to push through, maintenance will be harsh, especially in hot humid jungle. You'd be advancing at a russian's pace, which is several times slower than a snail's pace.

The only feasible option for armored vehicles in such an environment, is something with legs.

They weren't. Germany's pilots weren't better, but when you're outnumbered in the sky there's more opportunities for aces since it's hard to get 5 kills when there's barely any Luftwafffe in the sky to shoot down.

They were seal clubbing Soviet conscripts with 10 hours of flight time. Guys who could barely take-off and land, let alone dogfight kek.
It's like the Waffen-SS heroes were being fed on the ring with some actual, black, Heavyweight professional boxer. He could have moved them by the hundreds. But not so much other professionals.
German "aces" were MUCH more cautious about facing western pilots with proper - months long - training. Hartmann outright refused to fly the jets (he would have to fight in the West) as he insisted that he was "more useful" on the Easter front rofl.

I've got bad news, anon. Firearms have peaked. We're mostly going to be using ARs and browning tilt barrels until the heat death of the universe. Firearms development from now on is solely for the benefit of contrarians who refuse to use the boring and effective standard, and for dumbass executives who think that the entire civilized world wants a gun that is 3x the cost of an AR15 or Glock for 5% better performance.

https://www.cryeprecision.com/Jumpable-Plate-Carrier?quantity=1&color=Coyote&page=1
was thinking of getting this plate carrier with this chest rig https://haleystrategic.com/x-chest-rig
only problem is i don't see anywhere to clip the chest rig onto the PC, would my best bet be just strapping stuff onto the PC with velcro or finding a new PC?
>>
>>64754862
dunno anything about JPC (except that it's popular) and can only talk about stuff I've used as I'm not the most experienced gearqueer. I don't see any reason why you couldn't attach that rig to the JPC if you get some extra quick-clips or g-hooks or whatever. I'd assume crye has a different cumberbund option that has velcro on the front, or you could get a chest rig that has molle on the back?

I have a haley micro chest rig. stitching and quality is good (expensive gucci nylon so it better be). It's comfy, and attaches in lieu of a placard onto my DM MEPC if I want it to.
but I don't like using it on the plate carrier. It only has one pocket on the front of the mag storage area and some extra pistol mag slots and even still it sits so far out with that it's like you're pregnant. If i go prone anything in the pocket gets smooshed anyway.
I much prefer a placard that's just for holding mags, and all the things that would've gone in the pocket go on my belt or somewhere else.
Also, the inserts that go into the chest rig for holding mags are way less secure in my experience than my dedicated placards.

The haley rig you linked is the bigger version of mine, and looking through the pics I assume it uses the same velcro pocket that takes inserts as other rigs.
I ran with my chest rig as a placard on my mepc for a while but eventually caved and bought DM's dedicated mag placards (any brand would do tho) and I'm much happier with those. I lost the fanny pack/pockets from the chest rig but the mag placards feel much more secure and they're like half the profile or less of fanny pack hanging off the plate carrier.
But also I only larp with this shit so if you actually use it for work or somethign maybe you'd like having the extra storage on your chest?

The big advantage to using something like that haley chest rig as a placard is if you keep the X/H straps then you can use it without the PC too if you want.

thanks for your input, i know alot of plate carriers have the little ring things that you latch switchclips onto but it looks like you'd have to put them on horizontally instead of vertically and that was really throwing me off, i don't know how anything like a g clip would hold on and not slip off during normal use/due to gravity

In NA, also. Plus we had Megathierium, the giant ground sloth. And Priodontes maximus, the largest living armadillo. About like a 6 foot round ball, with bones that have revealed clear human predation in Central America. Surelu a .308 would have been good enough for all these, perhaps excepting the cave bear (short faced brown bear) and the cave lion. .338winmag for those guys, if not .378 Weatherby.

That's just the purchase price. Now look into the maintenance costs just to keep it airworthy. Even if you never run the engines, shit times out. And parts and the expertise needed to keep her functional don't come cheap. You're easily looking at over $500,000 in annual costs, well over $1million with fuel and expendables. If you fly it regularly, expenses go well over several million per year. That isn't your mom's Volvo. That's a cold war relic from the United States, which had the petrodollar backing a bottomless well of obscene spending.
