>>64698088Queerbec will never become independent because that means they will stop getting 50 billion in aid every 2 months.
>>64698103Ah yes. Those billions that regular Quebec citizens sees so much of. That, once accounted for by capita, makes for less than a week's paycheck per year. As a white adult man who has never been unemployed, never needed medical or social services support and never not been taxed more than you have, I sure as fuck couldn't survive without those. Cunt.
>You could fit every Tomahawk the US has produced since 2016 into the number of VLS cells the PLAN added to its fleet in 2025Is this true?:https://x.com/i/status/2006080291098816551
>>64697971Well, no not really. A war between China and the United States will be decided within a month long before anyone floats any significant tonnage. Either they stand off the United States airforce and navy in which case they've basically already won, or they fail to do that and all of their shipyards cease to exist.
The US buys enough tomahawks to replace the ones it used up
>>64697919A better metric would be to look at what they have available to use. There's a reason the abrams tank production is pretty low. No reason to make a fuck ton of them if all they're gonna do is sit around eating up maintenance funds. Or worse, end up like Russia's stockpile of tanks that were so run down because they had the bright idea to make a ton but never maintain them.
>>64697999Do you actually believe any of this shit or are you just baiting? Either way, here's your (You).
>>64697919>Have thousands of cruise missiles lying around in storage>We need to build more of them because China is building something completely unrelated!What manner of retardation is this?

The MOD of Taiwan released a chart detailing each threat from PLA's long range strikes and how to deal with them. How accurate and effective is this chart? Could Ukraine take one notes that could help them against Russian Strikes?
>>64697991Because boomers still think that we live in 1991: >>64697990
>>64697997Show me something in that webm that couldn't be used today? Air power is still king, more modern stealth bombers and jets exist to compete with development in air defense, the most effective weapon system russia has is their jdam equivalent and air launched cruise missiles.Nothing of substance has changed.
>>64697995>They don't have speed to chase helicopters in the air, there's like 1 case of a hit.I think there's 2-3 but that's a distinction without a difference.Modern purpose-built interceptor drones can reach 450kmh now, easily enough to catch a helo.They're just used for shaheeds and recon drones rather than helos and probably don't have the range to penetrate enemy controlled airspace but I'm certain they'd do the job if given the chance.
>>64696315https://x.com/i/status/2006233140663075254You fucking lying chink eye dog eating piece of shit.
>>64698095I think it's just more likely that they aren't kept near to the frontline, in the sense that spreading them out makes them far more effective at doing their actual job; intercepting drones.It goes without saying that the EW situation on the front is far different from deeper in country.
The brits did It with during WW2 to fight off German subs and Luftwaffe raiding their merchant ships, called CAM (Catapult Assisted Merchantmen, ship) and MAC (Merchant Aircraft Carriers): https://youtu.be/i6BqpInpZ2wSo nowadays with Steam and Electromagnetic catapults and CAA/UCAVs wouldn't that be much easier?
>>64695522>>64696699>>64695479>billions in aircraft and ordinancePic related with modest modifications and a ramp or very basic catapult would work just fine. If the US is slinging 200km+ anti ship missiles from helicopters then a biplane can do the same thing, better even due to vastly superior range.
>>64695522>The oil tanker Bella 1 is fleeing U.S. forces after the U.S. Coast Guard tried to intercept it in the Caribbean. >During the pursuit, the crew painted a Russian flag on the ship and now claim Russian status.>The tanker is under U.S. sanctions for carrying Iranian oil and was heading toward Venezuela. Its tracking signal went dark on Dec. 17, and it has since changed course.They seem fast enough: https://x.com/i/status/2006083791706525874
>>64697950A carrier's air wing can catch up to it easily, the issue is that a fighter can't board the vessel. Helicopters meanwhile are much slower and shorter rangedIf the mission was to sink it, this wouldn't be a problem
>>64697950>>64698015What if the sole purpose of your converted cargo ship is to maximize damage onto enemy commerce? As i pointed out in previous threads, what if you had the means to sink a huge number of Chinese ships in the Pacific, like 10% or more of global trade?
>>64698023>What if the sole purpose of your converted cargo ship is to maximize damage onto enemy commerce?Basically a one-and-done attack because every vessel that's even remotely suspicious will start getting blown out of the water without foreplay to try to take the sting out of global trade cratering in the background. A pack of dune coons with hand-me-downs taking potshots at specific vessels caused a significant chunk of global shipping to detour all the way around Africa like it was the 1850s; what do you think freezing the entire Pacific would do?>what if you had the means to sink a huge number of Chinese ships in the Pacific, like 10% or more of global trade?That already exists and it's called a carrier strike group. Merchant vessels are not warships, full stop.

>>64698085>why are the only people defending this stupid?The same could be asked of any of the other dumb shit that has happened this year, and the answer is the same: only retards resonate with retards.
>>64698063>build one ship that can carry 120 missiles>over three ships that can carry 270>die to three chink ships with 300 missiles because they can overwhelm you while you need to spread your fire and have fewer missilesthe DDG(X) was gonna carry the same long range hypersonics anyway. You get fewer missiles, less survivability and less flexibility for a far higher price and opportunity costTrump has effectively given up the pacific to the chinks now. The meta in naval warfare is carrying lots of missiles and spreading them out not carrying few missiles and putting them all on a single vessel.>>64698075An arsenal ship is less stupid than this because it at least doesn't rely on vaporware and commits to the arsenal bit, so it is in a slightly less disadvantaged position against chink DDGs
>>64698085>why are the only people defending this stupid?because the orange retard (now confirmed chinese agent) put his name and personal stamp of approval on this shit
>>64697864>noo you must bury your head in the sand and pretend everything will be fine forever even if we do nothingyou are brown, white people don't think like this. probably a slav. if the enemy does something right you pay attention and counter it, you don't go "russia stronk analogov net" and ignore it

Pistol related but last question thread died a while ago. Are all 1911 .45 barrels interchangeable with all other 1911 models? I've got a Kimber and want a threaded barrel for it and I'm wondering if I should just get a Kimber barrel for it.

Im looking to get a few mid tier red dots to throw onto my less used guns that I still want dots on. I currently have a sig romeo 5 that was bouncing around for a while but I got it back before their QC went completely to shit and ive heard their red dots have been suffering as well. I know a few guys whove gotten newer ones that have gotten bricked in a few hundred rounds and mines lasted a while. Regardless, Whats a decent budget red dot thats still usable and priced reasonably/regularly on sale around $150-200. Ive been mostly out of the budget red dot game so i dont know a ton of the models, I just have some fancier stuff on harder used guns.
>>64697060Post source. I am willing to change my mind but am skeptical. The lower has the serial number. Unless you are talking about 80%s but in that case it's adding a twist not in the original conversation.
>>64697632It's anecdotal, but a few years ago I bought a cheapo AR bundled with a vortex SPARC AR, put 1000+ rds through it before I sold it to a buddy.Fast forward to now and he's easily put 2k+ rounds through it and that vortex still works great. Seems like a quality product.
>>64697763It was a few years ago, no decision so unless you want to go to court the lower is still the actual firearm.Look this up to find the actual article I'm not dealing with this fucking spam filter. "He sold illegal AR-15s. Feds agreed to let him go free to avoid hurting gun control efforts"

>>64697586>I think the reason they want the "unobtanium" from Pandora is they can use it for better spacecraft.Yeah it's a room temp superconductor and somewhere in one of the screenplays or notes or something it says it's used to build superconducting magnets that contain antimatter for the ship engines. The first ones they sent out had to use liquid helium cooled magnets and were much bigger and bulkier. It's also mentioned somewhere that the company owns and operates a planetwide maglev transit network on Earth that makes use of it. I don't know why they don't just drop a few lines of dialogue outlining this stuff for viewers instead of leaving it scribbled in the margins of a script or notebook somewhere.
