Russia has 'machine gun artillery divisions'. What does this actually entail and what are the composition of these divisions? Is there a video of the effect of these units laying down heavy fire?

>>64334340I mean does it really matter at this point? It's a bunch of guys with whatever equipment they could find or steal somewhere. I don't think it's important to divide them into "motor rifle division" or "machine gun artillery division" since they all belong into meat wave division now.

While indirect use of machineguns was a thing in both world wars, that's AFAIK not actually what soviet/russian "machine gun and artillery" units were about.Simply put, it's their designation for fortress troops. Units meant to occupy fixed strongpoints and defense lines. This generally meant low-quality troops, less frontline infantry than "proper" rifle divisions, less logistical tail (because them sitting in static positions meant higher-level supply lines would always be close) and a proportionally higher amount of machineguns and lighter artillery pieces. The naming was I think mostly a propaganda thing of sorts - "machine gun and artillery" is gonna sound more impressive to the low-quality losers you put into those units than outright calling them out as troops only useful for static defense.Some of these units distinguished themselves in WWII and the Soviets and later Russians just kept them around as essentially second/third-rate defensive garrison units while moderninsing them to some degree.

>>64338856>Quebec is incredibly anti-gunMontreal is pretty anti-gun, and even then, not to the point you are making it. There's an estimated 13% difference in armed households between Quebec and Alberta, and (again, estimated) about 25% more guns in Quebec than in Alberta. Ontario is where gun ownership is at its lowest (15% household ownership) (couldn't quickly find estimates and not PAL ownership which would be skewed anyways, so, yeah, stats goes back to the 90s. Still after the Polytechnique...)

The risk of jail for carrying a gun is far higher than the risk of being jumped.
>>64337625>I have a sword for home defenseWhat kind? Do you do any martial training?
>>64315871What the hell are you talking about? The helmets are typical barbutes with some Ottoman and Gallowglass influences. There's nothing at all wrong with them. If it were found next to the Lough Henney helmet, or with a set of 15th century Italian armor, nobody would be surprised. The swords are weird. Improper from a historical context and oddly ugly. They all seem to have something subtly wrong in their designs and proportions.

The AF turned back from the proposal to axe the E-7 completely and use 'space based' sensors. I wonder who has a big space based business and whispered that idea into Trump's ear?>This is the same guy that said F-35s were useless and doesn't understand drones 2 E-7 units are currently in retrofitting in the UK to USAF spec and then full production will start in Kansas after their 2027 delivery. IMO the AF should retire the E-3s right now to free up funding for the E-7s as the 70s radomes are nearly obsolete, the E-2s can fill in the gap as the AF had proposed.Anyway, Australia thread? Boeing Australia and Australia branch defense contractors in general make things come to fruition without a load of bureaucratic bs somehow as of late.

>>64337194Pretty much, and that would probably only be that quick if you had fully clear orbital planes to work with, if you need to deal with a ton of debris or other stats, it'll take longer, they also use hall-effect thrusters for orbtial maneuvers which are incredibly efficient but super lower thrust, so any drastic orbital movement requires a very long burn time.

Looking for a short video from the beginning of the Ukraine conflict. It was Russian video of a solider and he appears to morph on camera or becomes an (?)animal(?) in a trench its actual war footage 2021-2023 era. This should be enough to remind those who’ve seen it.
Might as well ask here. Does anyone have a video from early in the 2022 invasion made by Russians or separatists who were Donbas veterans and while driving around in a car they came across a column of Russian vehicles which decided to just pull over and hang by the side of the road. The experienced guys in the car roll down the windows and start screaming that they're a bunch of fucking retards and need to get out of the open before they get fucked by Grads.It's funny and a good example of how the Big Army wasn't ready like Donbas veterans and Wagner was.
I'm gonna post shit I don't see posted any more, if anyone has more 2022 AZOV footage I would greatly appreciate it

Why didn't they just send F-35s to bomb Iran in Top Gun Maverick?
>>64336389Oh shit, I forgot, the do the one scene where the girl's riding down the side of the runway on her motorcycle like Maverick while shit's taking off, but then a BRAVE and DUTIFUL chink airman with too much fucking time on his hands stops her and goes 'NO, YOU CANNOT DO THAT.' Also, the one scene where one of the pilots rails against George Bush's flying skills like thirty years after the fact at a press conference.
>>64326956They didn't need to fly the mission at all. The cruise missiles they fired at the air field could do the mission in terrain navigation mode.
>>64324086but they were in an f-14 not f-18you make no sense
>>64336367>Personally i think WSOs are important now more then ever with drone bullshitNTA but I strongly agree.It's too much to ask for a pilot to also be an EWar tech and Drone Commander as well.This is probably usually done by the AWACS but if there isn't one up for whatever reason, the F-35 with a dedicated WSO who is essentially an EW/drones specialist, with flight training as an afterthought.

Are suppressors going to go down in price once the initial Jan 1st rush dies down? I am so sick of metal tube manufacturers charging ludicrous amounts of money for metal tubes, knowing they can get away with it because of government regulations. And I don't think anyone can rightfully and in good faith defend the suppressor price gouging that has been going on over the years.Seriously, why WOULDN'T PSA or Ruger or any of the other sweatshop-tier manufacturers going to be cranking these things out by the truckload for $150 a pop? Surely the profit margins on metal tube are going to be way higher than any firearm, right?
>>64335780>Tell me how I'm wrong about economics and none of that "the Chinese literally sold $20 cans as airsoft parts" I want a real answer! When PSA makes a $70 suppressor and $50 booster, knowing people will buy them, like Glock gen3 clones, will you cry or just kill yourself in protest? A man shouldn't not know how a knurler works to think it makes a metal tube worth a thousand dollar.
>>64327102>This may come as a surprise to you, on account of you being fucking stupid,Had a good giggle at this one. Going to use it in the future.
>>64337375Boosters are harder to get right than you'd think
>>64338546yeah maybe for an average joe, you dont think a huge company like PSA can figure it out?I remember when some hoe ass companies said the bizon was "impossible" for production and PSA just made it work
>>64338546Certainly it takes a certain amount of R&D to get a Nielsen Device/booster right, in that respect it's like magazines which also have more engineering going into them then people commonly recognize. But by the same token, magazines being challenging to get right didn't stop magpul from figuring out very good cheap ones.Ultimately, a booster is some metal/piston/spring. The specific geometry takes some effort, but the manufacturing cost is low. So it comes down to how many you're making to spread those fixed costs across. If PSA or whomever else figure one out optimized for ease of manufacture (might well partner with others and make it totally standard across a huge percent of the industry, might as well) and sells millions it'll be cheap.

>>64335254Yeah the AK FRT SS market is super underdeveloped, and IMO it is actually one of the most promising. My two position AK FRT has been working flawlessly for nearing 1200 rounds total, maybe 1300 actually I need to double check. The design of the cam is such that the force to actuate the reset is transferred through a very durable tough piece, as opposed to the lever designs for the AR platform. The trip bar which is arguably the weakest part is only subject to moderate forces. I've got the three position function checking by hand decently well right now, so long as you don't crank down on the trigger to hard. Going to work on it more a bit here. I don't know if AK receiver and carrier specs are tight enough in terms of tolerances, but matching the cam and trip bar to a particular spec fire control group, auto disconnector, and auto safety, for a near drop in three position AK FRT SS that keeps the original OG aesthetic... we're not far from that.
>>64338526Very based. Will it use the OG safety selector?
