>>65052612Nah, else submarines would be useless.
>>65052366if you think this is reliable, viable or easy to set up you need to get your brains checked
>>65053280It's just a matter of processing power, and its not like you are dealing with a sphere, its a band along the horizon you have to search.
>>65053280I think I could get it set up easy if the goverment paid me about some 500 mils
>>65053286Ok, now start doing the math on how many degrees you can track with what kind of reliability, and therefore how many units you need. Where you need to install them to avoid gaps in coverage. Then figure out how you're going to hide them, because jets are fast and move around a lot. Your AA system is largely static by comparison and trivial to keep tabs on using various forms of ISR. When they start launching stand off munitions (which outrange you) overhead, do you reveal yourself to shoot them down? You will quickly find that the economics of making this happen are extremely unfavorable and you should have just built a good airforce.

>>65052836Wrong. In order to transfer the NFA to you, it needs to Form 3 to an in-state dealer first. You will not get a Form 4 approved (as an individual) from a state different to the one in which you reside. You can Form 4 a NFA item to an out of state SOT, who will then Form 4 to someone else. Or, if you both live in the same state, then you can direct Form 4 from individual to individual. In that case, drive to the seller and pick it up directly.

>>65053168>I’m pretty sure they’re the only ones that will ship machine gunsCorrect. Am UPS CDLA driver. No MGs, but company will still ship rifles and pistols provided they go through an FFL.Pretty sure FedEx is the same.After seeing some of the problems, I can kind of understand why, on top of part time loaders pocketing then, people are absolutely retarded about shipping guns.Once saw a 5' long box made out of like three other boxes duct taped together tear open on a conveyor belt.10+ rifles and shotguns that had been loosely wrapped together with a tablecloth came out and clattered over ~50 yards of belt before the supervisor on duty managed to hit the emergency stop. Three or four boxes of bullets that had also been inside somewhere broke open and similarly spread out all over the place, falling through cracks, rattling on to the machinery and concrete below.Felt bad for the supervisor, that one was for sure going to be a world of bullshit to clean up and figure out.We've also had loaded firearms discharge in packages in my building before, all kinds of stupid shit.People are fucking dumb.

Reguardless of whatever scraps get to them via their so called allies the DPRK will benifit the most because like Vultures they will take the bits that intrest them and ignore everything else. The Muslim world has betrayed the Cold War solidarity that the DPRK has given them for half a century, there a very few people the Norks trust and it is a very short list.

>>65053851So basically they anticipated the slimmest possible chink in US armor (complacency) and based procurement and doctrine around it. These are not Arabs lmfao, maybe its time to start taking them deadly serious as Persians are clearly built different in terms of warfighting
>>65053960Are you implying that F-35s and B-21s are not operating over Iran? Because they are.
>>65053850Is there any evidence that Iran has them?
>>65053968>B-21Thanks to this post I discovered that there actually a couple flying, currently, which surprised me (I can't believe it's been four years since the reveal, feels like yesterday), but do you really think there are Raiders in actual service yet? I'd assume it's just B-2s.

>>65051072>Yeah, it's expensive to run, hard to keep secret (all WMD programs are, look at the Israeli or South African nuclear program as a prime example) and not very useful if you already have nukes and/or chems. Creating small quantities of gene edited biological pathogens is trivial with university research laboratory equipment and has been so for at least a decade. If you are talking about industrial scale deployment in muntions then sure it's difficult to hide but any world power of any real esteem no doubt has a secret BSL4 site or two. Even with the carve out in the treaty for regulated biodefense research, it's still a restriction some are no doubt covertly ignoring. You are right about its dubious utility but you could say the same about the pros & cons of gain-of-function research in general. Wouldn't you rather your country discovered super ebola before the enemy?

>>65052235Kek. But there is nothing to suggest that Pister was gay and since he made quite the career (commander of the Hinzert Concentration Camp and the Buchenwald Concentration Camp) after 1939 I doubt it. >also funny that Röhm was handing out SS-daggersThat is the most interesting part imo. Considering that the SS-Honor Daggers were introduced only in December of 1933 and that Röhm and Himmler disliked each other I find it suspicious that such a piece would be signed by Röhm. The next step would be to check the provenance of the dagger in question but I'm too tired for this detective work. Perhaps another autist will look into it.
>>65052079Wasn't that unit providing motorcade duties for NSDAP leadership? If yes, Röhm and Pister would meet and work together at party events...>>65051561>basically universal. UK, France, Sweden, etc. even the USOh, you're right, they were very common with military swords esp. with officers and mounted personnel, slowly transitioning from duty uniforms to parade wear. I guess because I'm not much of a sword guy I didn't think about that. My point should have been more like the Germans and Austrians were totally in love with sword AND BAYONET tassels, made them almost universal for everyone and introduced them in various flavours with a maze of rules and exceptions to them. I'm not aware of other armies strapping a portepee to nearly every infantrymans' bayonet.
>>65052741No, the 32. SS-Standarte was merely a regional administrative organisation within the wider SS - in this case for the region of Baden. And while Pister probably would have driven around NSDAP functionaries this would have been limited to the aformentioned region. And within the same year Pister joined he advanced to become the leader of the 32. SS-Standarte. Perhaps he would have met Röhm in this function but it is still weird that Röhm was dedicating SS-Honor Daggers in the first place.

/frtssg/ - Forced Reset Trigger & Super Safety GeneralPrevious:>>64899646What are FRTs:Forced Reset Triggers (FRTs) are firearm modifications that allow semi-automatic rifles to fire more rapidly by automatically resetting the trigger after each shot, while still requiring a trigger pull for each round. They increase the rate of fire without converting the firearm into a fully automatic weapon.AR-15 is the most ubiquitous platform with the most amount of options. Other platforms have other nuances.See it action:https://youtube.com/@juiceymedia1https://youtube.com/@poorboyarmshttps://youtube.com/@printshootrepeatDistributors:Comment too long.

The F-35, has already been compromised:>Americans decided to sell F-35 to Singapore.>Doesn't realize that Singapore is another Communist China province.>Singapore allowed PLAAF 'technician' to inspect the F-35 in the name of Chinese brotherhood and supremacy>Just a year later F-35 got surpassed by advanced Shenyang FC-31 version.I laughed hard when I saw news that the US is going to sell F-35s to Singapore. The moment those jets land in Singapore there is going to be an army of Chinese spies ready to dig into whatever areas they haven't stolen already. Many seething Australians on /k/ have already been sounding the alarm since the US decided to sell the F-35 to Singapore as they believe it compromises Australia's air defense to China. While the US can afford to replace the F-35 with something new in 20 years Australians are going to be stuck with them for at least 50.
>>65053992A chink already made off with the plans, how much more are they going to be able to learn just from looking at one?

After a year long absence, the journey of the Busta Move(s) and her intrepid crew continues! Previous installments: https://desuarchive.org/k/search/subject/Target%20for%20Today/>what the fuck is thisTarget for Today is a solitaire tabletop game (translated to digital for these threads) covering the USAAF's bombing campaigns in Europe throughout the Second World War. With options for choosing everything from which Air Force, Bombardment Wing and Squadron you fly with all the way to which submodel of aircraft you'll be flying, the game is rife with detail. Over a year ago we began the journey of the Busta Move, a B-24 of the 15th Air Force (49th Bomb Wing, 451st Bomb Group, 725th Squadron). While perilous, our crew has done far better than the ill-fated men of the B-17s that shared the Big Nigger titles, with our current permanent losses consisting of:>Copilot Harris>Radio Operators Sean Bean and Poncho>Waist gunners Fanculo, Danielson and Sam Hyde, with another (Lefty Navel) being medically dischargedOur bombing results, however, have been much less impressive: out of eleven combat missions the Busta Move has been forced to abort due to combat damage six times, and on a mission to soften up Anzio for Allied landings we missed the target entirely. Our 10th mission, Milan, was another abort but the flight back was a nightmare. By the time the Busta Move returned to base, she had lost two engines, both main landing gear, all of the twin .50 cals had been rendered inoperable, the entire oxygen system had failed, one wing was barely attached, half the crew was wounded and dozens of other minor hits had been taken. That plane was retired and the Busta Move II was put into action, already having completed one mission.For now, strap your parachutes on, grab a K-ration and lets go bomb vaguely near strategic targets!
Hey uh OP here...14 zones is probably too much to fly out of formation, right?
>>65053384Surely a traitor is sabotaging the engines, right? This must be the huns!
>>65053384
>>65053384Now THERE'S a flight plan with some chest hair!
