would a starship-based gunship or dragon-based gunship work?
>>64687787>>64687834deorbiting still needs Δv. so you not only need to put the rods up there but also a deorbiting motor.The only advantage I can think of is less warning time than a ballistic launch.
>>64685647BS. Dragon 2 is the most modern and arguably functional, of all flying crew or cargo capsules. Starship is still in heavy development but mostly works as planned.Still waiting for Ithacus.>>64688119>>walla>not sure if belter or ESL ground-dwellerLurk moar.>>64688185If it's a payload on a ballistic arc, even if travelling orbital velocity, it's still going to reimpact the launch point in 90 minutes without a circularization burn. This is an advantage, as the booster or payload for a point-to-point attack can thrust at apogee to do things like plane changes. Apply some REDACTED crossrange tricks and you've got a non-nuclear strike weapon.
>>64688852they could also use dragons as the crew section of the larger spacecraft. like have a 2 docking ports for dragons and always have on attached for rescue operations if the main spacecraft has problems
>>64691402Look into the fascinating history of the Soviet's Almaz and Salyut space station programs, and the unflown US Manned Orbiting Laboratory. Much of the development work for small military stations has already been done, and some of it has flown.
>>64691818you mean the almaz with the gun?i bet the US has done something similar on the secret payload launches or the x37

>>64695271Morocco is unironically the closest US ally in Africa.... I mean that's not a high bar but still.
>>64695306I'm sorry but you are delusional if you think a poor North African dictatorship is getting F-35s, when Spain a trusted NATO democracy, isn't.Morocco already gets a lot of special treatment by Uncle Sam compared to its peers. (PROTIP: Morocco's peer is Algeria not Spain).But what you are proposing sounds delulu, they are not gonna to the balance of power so hard against a NATO member.
>>64695355>* gonna tip the balance of power againstTypo
>>64694660Why didn’t they buy M-346? What about the med alliance?

If there was a game based on the ukraine war, it can be called Tom Clancy's NAFO: A combination of explosive SPAM and real-life FUNDRAISING

Was the Yugoslav military the 4th strongest military in the 80s-90s before it fell apart?
>>64694241it's still amazing today
>>64692353>total slovenian victoryUnironically this. Slovenians were by far the best in SFRJ and if they were a bit more assertive economically, they could have run the show. Even today they are the only ex yu state that is even remotely successful
>>64694447Rakija is usually non flavoured, made from distilled fruits (plums, grapes). Ouzo is flavoured botanicals mixed with pure alcohol. Mix between the two would be tsipouro which is distilled grapes flavoured with anise
>>64695752Yugoslaia fell apart when it did because Slovenia was assertive. Serbs wanted a 'one man-one vote' policy while Slovenia wanted increased decentralization and more power to the republics.Slovenia walked out of the 14th, and last, congress of the the league of communists of Yugoslavia followed by Croatia>"We cannot accept a Yugoslav party without the Slovenes". >When Milošević asked what it would take to recommence the meeting, the Croatian delegation remarked, "the Slovene delegation".Shit went downhill from there.
>>64695878You're right, I had confused it with raki (which is flavored).

>>64695317Yes, the army has 19k and 19c; otherwise, no.Though, the Air Force is the least...everything branch for the enlisted side. The officers do all the actual cool jobs in the AF.
>>64694978Yeah you're cooked.>>64695317Better opportunities for choosing your own adventure, for lack of a better term. The pathways to go to SOF, commission, become a warrant officer, go to a cool duty station, or go to a cool school are a lot more obvious and easy to apply for. Also, from what I've seen, the Army has the best tuition assistance policy of any branch.
>>64693068While what >>64694865 said mostly rings true, >>64693381 is also true. Airborne units are mostly high speed.

Do the upper echelon military dudes continue to train with firearms throughout their careers, or would they be completely useless in a fight?
>>64691147>My personal agenda for making this thread was finding out whether the top salamis in the military would be capable of defending themselvesCalm down there Mr ANA.
>>64691064Depends on the bigwig.During the Korean War for example, the Best Korean surprise buttsexing of the South in 1950 was so rapid & bulldozed barely trained SK troopers that it overran the American contingent sent to support S.Gooks during the withdrawal to Busan. The situation was so bad that its commanding general, Gen William F. Dean, was cut off from every single unit he commanded and ended up personally fighting in battle. He directed tank hunter units & personally spotted for them, knocked up a few Nork T-34s himself with his super bazooka and threw grenades at escaping crew.His luck finally ran out when during the mad retreat, his jeep fell into a ravine, killing his driver & knocking him unconscious. When he woke, he wandered to the direction of Busan alone for days until a bunch of South Korean peasants saw him & told the Norks about it. He fought off the Norks with his sidearm to force them to kill him but they waited for him to ran out of ammo and beat him up instead. Mfer spent the remainder of the war a POW, the highest ever captured in the war.
>>64691085fpbp
>>64695159>South Korean peasants sided with the Norkslol
>>64691095Depends on the circumstance. During GWOT, I can vaguely recall some high ranking dude that shot someone during a green on blue attack. I wanna say the guy was a general, but my memory is shit and I'm too lazy to google it.
First footage of the Sino Q-ship/arsenal ship leaving port for sea trials. Are they really serious with this?
>>64695976Why do you think they get hit by a plague or famine every so often?
>>64695740>hamstringYou mean strongarmed.If not for the colonization by europeans, African would still be waging slaving raids for the Arabs who themselves would still be no better than a bunch of pirates, merchants and goat herders, barely freed from the turks.And that's only for the last 200 years.
>>64695829lol lmao even you've never talked with a Taiwanese person in your life, their hate for mainlanders is more intense than finnish hate for russians
>>64695740>Just because the US puppets of Taiwan, S. Korea and Japan were the only industrialized nonwhite countries in the world doesn't mean that it is forbidden for China to advance on their ownWell you have been working like slaves during the last 50 years for IOU that will never be paid and your economy's future is still dependant upon the white man whims so I would argue China got neocolonized even more successfully than most one-party states across Africa.
>>64695989You can't sniff out bullshit by an inventive imagination?If you have access to a drive with a rootkit you can copy its boot sector and analyze it. You don't reimage it and look at the image.An IP doesn't tell you who a person is. He's claiming he somehow had enough hard evidence to trace it down to the people responsible and yet he's crying for a memory dump? That screams that he's still fishing. Sounds like this guy was inventing hackers to miraculously find. His coworker said as much.
What went wrong?
>>64695601This. It was big in action shows before modern video games. And not just low-budget B-tier stuff either. The SPAS was in Terminator, RoboCop, Jurassic Park, Bad Boys, La Femme Nikita, Miami Vice, Star Trek DS9 and Voyager, Beverly Hills Cop....it was fucking everywhere in 80's and 90's movies/TV.The problem was people thinking it was good simply because it looks cool on screen.

>thousands of roundsthat's always such a cope. I have thousands of rounds. it's not hard to when you're got like .22lr and .223/5.56.The guy in the article was a felon in possession so whatever, ignoring that. Why would you own like 15 ARs? I have a carbine and a 20 inch hbar. Like I understand having more than one AR. I understand having multiple carry guns for different weather, having a collection of curio and relics (even if they don't fit the ATFs definition of C&R like if an action for a new gun is cool or modern millsurp or whatever), I understand having multiple hunting rifles or shotguns for different game or having multiple target rifles or clay shotguns for different sports shooting. I don't understand having 15 copies of what is basically the same fucking AR.
>>64693807>Why would you own like 15 ARsIt's called the bill of rights not the bill of needsOP is a huge faggot
>>64693807I own:Spr for shooting out to ~600 yardsGpr for every day useBlock 1.5 clone for autismMk18 for shooting under nodsTws upper mainly for varmints and night hunts.22 upper for teaching and fucking aroundI dont understand owning a 20” upper in 2026 when there is virtually zero benefit when using modern rounds and twist rates outside of cloning autism
>>64693807>breaking news; man found owning things they sell at the store! Sources say he used money to buy them!

The M113 is immortal. It will keep getting upgraded and will serve on Mars.
>>64686582It was the mechanical mule that was considered for moon service.
>>64686582Why do we need combat vehicles on Mars?
>>64695293In case they attackackack!
I once read that the Swiss still have hundreds of M-113s in like new condition stashed away in some mountain caves. Apparently some German power tried to buy them in order to give them to Ukraine, but the Swiss refused.

Which is best for executions?Sword? Or axe?
>>64695741I suppose the difference there is this is generally considered an oddity and very bad thing in western white culture. Ignoring the arguments to be made about how many people are actually white and not da jooz. Compared to the regularity the muslim rape gangs form in the UK.
>>64695789No
>>64695762>when it came time to decapitate Anne Boleyn for example they had a master swordsman come from France specifically to do the job.Imagine somewhere in teh future.
>>64695762Common criminals were usually hanged with a rope, because it was easier, everyone could perform it from the crowd and the hanging body served as grimm reminder for everyone. Nobles were beheaded, either with a sword or an axe, because it was a quicker way to go and the reason why professional executioners became a thing was because the families of condemned noblemen paid good money for them for a quick chop, so their relatives were spared from a painful death at the hands of a drunk man at arms with a dull blad. In some places, nobles were strangled to death with a silk cord, because they believed that spilling noble blood was a sin, but hanging was also humiliating, so they were killed in the gayest manner possible.
