This is the chief technical officer of Fire Point, the company that designs multiple different weapon systems from mid-range strike drones to cruise missiles capable of strategic strikes. Say something nice about her.

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!
Both of the remaining Germans circle back around for another attack, the ace pulling up behind us while the Focke-Wulf comes in from the side. Both Casterman and Oscar manage to score damaging hits, but despite the crippling damage to the incoming fighter the Kraut manages to keep the plane in the air, letting off a burst of fire before disengaging and flying (or more likely, gliding) for home. Behind us, Sindri is attempting to get his gun working, leaving only Howard to defend against the ace coming from behind. But Howard's gunnery is even more on point, and with a steady burst the German fighter bursts into flames and explodes.Our first kill! Now just two more waves until we can turn back.
This thread makes me want to play falcon bms
>>65033819>2 more wavesi'm not worried, are you worried? why would i worry?
A quartet of 109s attacks from the front, and our gunfire is painfully inadequate, scoring no hits. The fighters at 12 level manage to score a combined total of three hits, one of which lightly wounds our bombardier Fook, another which bursts in the pilot compartment flight control cables, leaving a good number of them severed. The last punches a neat hole through an aileron but does little else.>Bombardier light wound>Control cables: 1/2 hp>Starboard aileron superficial damage
The pair of succesful 109s come around for another attack, attacking from 1:30 high and 3:00 high. Casterman and Yora both fire on the one at 1:30 but score no hits, while Saul in the waist simply sprays the entire area with gunfire from his position, causing the German at 3:00 to break off his attack early. Even better, the 1:30 German misses his shot a dives away afterwards.>wave 2 cleared>wave 3 2d6 roll: [1][5]>result #15: 5xFw-190 (12 high, 6 high, 9 Level, 10:30 level, Vertical Dive) + Bf-109 12 level (due to lead bomber)>escorts remove no fighters>tail gun still INOPoh no
>Video of a Shahed drone being shot down by a battle-tested Ukrainian P1-Sun interceptor drone in the Middle EastNow we know why Zelensky was doing his gulf states tour
>>65033795That's the thing, you don't call him out for being a liar, you call him out for being a hood-crackhead-tier nigger. Putin didn't care about being called a liar, but he got assmad about being called a shitty 2-bit crook.
>>65033833if only someone could have stopped him

>>65033800I don't really see anyone speaking highly of le orange man anymore, except maybe on twitter, but that's mostly bots these days. Drumpf is just old and isn't funny like he used to be. Besides I found his treatment of Zelenskyy personally distasteful, and generally speaking most people here are pro Ukraine so that probably matters too. Besides, Zoomers have gone into their niche political sub communities that only agree on despising anyone who has any power. So I always expect there to be spam about anyone who's ever won an election outside the indian subcontinent. It's just a fact of life at this point.
>>65033800DRUUUUMMPF TWO SCOOPS
That China is well out of reach of the current US military capabilities.

Why argue about china the sick men of asia.

>>65033960holy based, I wish american politicians had the balls to just run over shithead protesters with tanks
We're undeniably in the age of the drone, modern militaries have very little cost effective counters to small mass produced drones, but that wont last, better detection and interception technology like interceptor drones, lazars, specialized ammunition, better EW are being developed and slowly rolled out, the Ukraine war will be viewed like how we view world war one, a strange inflection point of bad and outdated strategy meeting new more powerful weapons. the drone will eventually be just another tool in the arsenal instead of a wonder weapon,
>>65033269>>65033255I think the limitations of missiles themselves reflect on drones; they can cause flashy explosions and wipe out units, but neither are decisive weapons unto themselves.
>>65033483Isn't the warhead to fuel(battery) ratio also better?And higher loiter time enables mission profiles missiles don't cover.
>>65033483you can have cheap drones and expensive drones at the same time.Its extremely valuable to have swarms to terrorize infantry and then have an advanced loitering drone ready to attack something important when opportunities reveal themselves. drone technology will also only get cheaper over time so what may be wasteful today will be disposable tomorrow
>>65033532they work hand in hand. missiles deliver payloads that drones can't at speeds that you can't take cover from.drones can change targets at will and choose the most opportunistic time to strike while being able to pick out individual soldiers
>>65033593It's not a binary better/worse thing, it's different and has both benefits and downsides:- electric power allows to use multi-rotor designs with a fucked up level of maneuverability and rapid acceleration;- basic bitch internal combustion engines with propellers elevate a drone to a cheap cruise missile, which is too costly to counter with conventional AA, and also harder to even lock on because no jet stream of heat exists;- and so onThis doesn't mean that missiles are bad or anything though. A missile is obviously harder to shoot down by a guy in a pickup truck with a machine gun. A missile can bring 1000+ lbs warhead to the target, reach it faster and so on.
Only China, USA and Russia have strategic bombers anymore. Every other country no longer has them. Does this show how only these 3 countries are superpowers anymore and how far Europe has fallen off since they don't have them anymore.
>>65023573Maintenance on 8 fucking engines will do that.A lot of non-avionics components on those old buffs are basically bespoke/custom fitted to each airframe, which means that damage to a panel or whatever means you’re basically fabbing up a proto part to fix it. Heard an anecdote from one pilot that their squadron mate’s wso accidentally popped the overhead panel for ejection soon after taking off on a training mission, and they ended up sending a couple of trucks out to find the thing cause it would be a too much of a pain to make a replacement
>>65023368You need air superiority to use them, and only those 3 countries can achieve that (or at least think they can achieve it in Russia’s case).
because only war mongering countries love to bomb other countries more effectively >Hint the 3 biggest nigger country thumper
>>65029262Warhammer 40K could add TU-95 and B52 models (or slightly modified version). Because those will probably be used in the year 40k still.

>>65032322>is stuck>gets raped>but it doesn't count, because she is as unemotional and unbothered as she always is>"... are you done?"
>>65032248Usually yes. There's usually a numbering scheme in place but nations don't always stick to these systems. >5.56Bullet is 5.56 millimeters wide.>7.62Same idea. Bullet is 7.62 millimeters.> .45 0.45 inches wide. Yes, it's in inches. No, they don't explain this well. Yes, a 45mm round is possible. No, it doesn't exist yet. Thank god. >M1Model 1. Usually the first of it's type under the new numbering systems. Sadly more confusing than it's worth due to M1 Rifle and M1 Carbine being entirely different guns. >M1414th rifle under the current system. No, I don't know what happened to M13 and M12.

It doesn't matter much either way since the F-34 has been the standard for a year when M3s were finally being delivered to frontline units.

Still looking for info/advice about making synthetic stocks at home. Fiberglass, carbon fiber, resin, foam, that kind of thing, not nylon.Previous: >>64933822
>>65033336Mockups ocould probably be done with foam or cheap ass wood which eventually becomes a "master". Put a peelable layer or release on it maybe. If I really need to, I could probably make a fiberglass mold for the stock using the foam/wood master instead of using the master as something to make a shell around (instead making the two halves in separate flat molds). If needed, you could vacuum bag over the master to make the shape better if you're going with shell over master -> remove -> re-assemble. I don't see how it will get to even $1k; I have a manufacturer within my state and most of their materials fall into the price range of $40-50/2 pints no matter what it is. I may expect to use two of those and some glass weave or mat. Then some filler and epoxy and some foam for the guts. With fuckups and everything, max like $300-500. I'd do wood but I've done that before and it often turns out heavy because surprise, good wood is dense and precision rifle stock designs made for synthetic materials are often wide or have a lot more volume to them.
>>65033336But you may be right about the printer part. Download a model, scale to rifle in your printer software or model editing software, print it double wall with somewhat low infill, and make a shell over it with fiberglass and resin. Then cut in half so you have a left and right and peel the PLA out. Reassemble, glue the halves, and foam fill, then bed. It's been so long since I got into anything new with printers; what used to take like an hour and 30 min to print now takes like 40 min. Anyone else remember ReplicatorG? Maybe you've been around longer than me and use(d) PronterFace like Ben Heck...
>>65030580Still looking for a higher resolution version of this… I know one of you fuckers has it
>>6503235322 mag bullet weight is similar to 22 LR, so if you mainly want to shoot subs, 22 mag is pointless.
>>65033954Yeah. I know the weights were close. Just figured I would like the option to go with supers when sound wasn't an issue but really at that point just get a second rifle lol. Yeah, gonna get the 22. Looking at cans now
USAF is just aura farming at this point
>>65032416To be fair, the fact that we are not able to insure safe transit is concerning at best.Same with losing an AWACS. Legacy airframe or not. We are bombing Iran with near impunity, but I should expect near immunity.I just hope these lessons are actually learned and retained, for the inevitable chink war. I give it 20 to 30 years.Best outcome would be some CIA orchestrated coup or economic victory, a la USSR, but I don't see that happening.
>>65032421He's not wrong, though.
>>65032453Yes. News distraction from Gaza.EVERYTHING done now at a high level is PR.Smoke and mirrors, panem et circenses.
>>65031508Americans are competing with Indians for izzat at this point. Once again anything that carries more then an AK, like say - a rice hat - is enough to make them fold. Hormussy stays closed.
>>65033957Hormussy stays closed due to jewish insurance and market speculation.Jews are winning at every end of this, and smart investors are too. Sadly, most Americans don't have enough money to play the market and shamefully; Not enough time or knowledge to do so.
The picture is terrible but you get the idea. Why aren't there any beefier versions of this to sue as a snap caps or dummy round? It would make dry fire practice a lot more entertaining.
>>65033627The Brocock guns use special "cartridges". These are basically a tiny single-use high pressure air tank with a built-in valve. You have to pump up each cartridge with a manual pump, then fit an airgun pellet in the nose. With that done, you can load the "cartridges" into the gun like normal rounds.
>>65033635Accessories
>>65033605You can do basically this with all calibers, if you don't mind them not cycling automatics. Cast your own wax bullets and load them with a primed case.>>65033635Wait, those were fucking single use? You couldn't reload those cartridges?
bullet mold picrel.take some old casings, replace the primer and insert cast rubber bullet. load magazine, pull trigger until it goes click. cycle your weapon for every shot.
