>>65501591>I understand the Airborne version you get deployed more often, but more days off for college studies?Airborne you actually do your job and you're traveling all the timeany aircrew position is way cooler by default but also doing a lot more workAny linguist position sucks balls though any kind of Intel is just superior at this pointUnless you have an intense interest and preexisting knowledge base of Korean or Chinese or Russian and plan to visit there or something after service (don't mention this last part)>>65502456You don't tell the VA anything, you tell your primary care while you're in to document various nicks and scrapes, hitting your knee on a log, bumping your head, sleeping poorlyThen the VA contracts out the exams to third party providers that just check boxes off on a list to see if you qualifyit's primarily an administrative process not a medical one, so just check the boxes (all information on diagnosing each condition publicly available) and you're probably going to get a very high percentage
>>65502001>Maybe in a decadeYou're very out of touch if you honestly believe that
>>65501042Bruh, you've been here 6 years?? You're annoying AND pathetic. Holy fuck. Get a life.
Why are there so many mentally ill people in the military?
>>65502808>anon says someone else has been here 6 years>that also means anon himself has been here 6 yearsMakes perfect sense anon, but maybe it's best you don't handle an M72 LAW. We wouldn't want you reading the instructions.
What do unmanned US Navy submersibles like this even do? Reconnaissance?
>>65503403Mostly. They also have cavitating seabed mines for shallow water and some encapsulated torpedo types. But it's mostly moored mines (the floaty balls)
>>65496033>I'm not familiar with that term. Can you explain it?this fucking board is absolutely beyond embarrassing
>>65497427>I think this war has emboldened Iran, as well as RoW, honestly. It was taken as axiomatic that the empire had but to cast its baleful gaze upon you, and you were ash. But despite the near-omnipotence of America's military, the way it conducts war has been shown to be surprisingly cowardly and lacking in strategy (and honor, but that was never a biggie for burgers). I'd be interested in seeing what China is plotting behind the scenes, now that America's munitions are running dry. Every crisis is an opportunity, as they say in their culture. Fun times aheadThis post has demoralized me, we need to start blowing up water treatment plants and power generation sites to overcome this great shame
>>65503767It was clearly a response to the joke you retarded fagort.
>>65503786If the US or Israel does that, Iran will retaliate by blowing up the water infrastructure of the US's incompetent petrostate allies. Iran might not be able to sink a US supercarrier, but it can do OK against the finest air defense crews Saudi Arabia can muster because lol arabs at war.Whether or not this is a bad thing in the long term is admittedly up to debate, but at the very least it will create a pretty nightmarish humanitarian situation and crash the global economy.
A fully armored highly trained crusader with a sword or a fully armored highly trained varagian guard with an axe? (consider the material of their historically acurate gear and culture if possible)
>>65502446>A fully armored highly trained crusader with a sword or a fully armored highly trained varagian guard with an axe?Those two factions did fight on the Fourth Crusade. In 1204 the crusaders attacked Constantinople while the Varangians defended it, and the crusaders won. That specific battle was the end of the Varangian Guard.
>>65502446Assuming both are armored in plate or similar the sword has an advantage as it can thrust.
>>65502507A knight would have a sword in addition to those things, and it'd put him at an advantage to the varagian.
>>65502726They were highly outnumbered and once the emperor fled they deserted, since they didnt had no one else to be loyal to. They also were not being paid. If I remember correctly the crusaders agreed on letting them go safely so it would be easier to conquer the city
>>65502446The astronaut and the caveman coming out of nowhere with the steel chair
Thread about conflict involving major global powers >It's nothing but shit flinging with everyone accusing each other of being thirdies or shillsThread about some civil war in Africa or South East Asia>One anon posts an entire play by play of the war detailing every single troop movement
>>65503742Everyone would very much like the fighting over that land to stop so they can get their hands on the goods under that land, and so they throw their chips in wherever hoping that they're at the winner's table getting a sweetheart dealalso probably politics, religion, tribes, and shit
>>65503762>the goods under that landWhat is under Sudan?
>>65502914
>>65503766A fuckload of gold, rare earth minerals, and oil. Everything a growing economy could want, and it's being exploited by all kinds of forces to fund a war so they'd rather the war be over so it can fund them. Also politics and shit.
>>65502875It's simple. People get way too invested when a conflict involves the United States of America in some way. Either directly, or closely due to it affecting its major rivals and/or allies.When you have some obscure conflict with a few degrees of separation from the US (because let's face it: every conflict relates back to the US on SOME level...) then you don't have to deal with the people who get irrational and crazy over whether this is the definitive end of America as a global power.
For some reason sci-fi shows never answer this question.
>>65491422>How is this supposed to work?The 2 army meet.They both simulate the battle on their computers.They capitulate or accept the other surrender to save time.
>>65491422Wars would get worked in practice. Their turbo lasers are third world AK spam type weapons with no accuracy or aim.On the other hand you basically never see a Trek ship fire a phaser and miss, because they built actual targeting technology that doesn't suck. So in Wars you get tons of fighter type spacecraft flying around, while in Trek that would be suicide because you need huge ship level shields to tank the inevitable hits.We should also talk about how Babylon 5 got space fighter design rightest. Quad forward and reverse thrust engines at the points of an X wing pattern. Trek gets half points because at least there are impulse engines labeled on diagrams all around the ship. Wars is just tard level with backward-facing engines as the only typical visible source of thrust.
>>65503687This is some vintage internet versus posting bullshit.Honestly the internet would be a better if all you trekkie and warsfags just killed yourselves, both franchises are dogshit.
>>65503761>This is some vintage internet versus postingthank you>both franchises are dogshitYou can say sci fi is dogshit but if you like sci fi you can't say that the seminal founding works of the genre are dogshit THEN be like, "but i love the genre".
>>65503662>army>when the image is of two space fleetsThe rest of the concept you put forth is fucking retarded as well but that basically goes without saying.
Let that sink in for a moment y'all
>>65501609>>65503210Is it actually a bot? 1-word replies to random posts after 10 hours of thread inactivity
>>65455351i will never understand how this situation is an "own"the americans got to see how a sub could sneak on them and iron out their defences, the swedens got a good deal of experience on how to reach a centerpiece ship and attack it, its a win win thats why you do fucking exercises its not a sport where you win or lose
>>65503715The whole thread is a bait threadthrown up by anti-westerners, its intentionally dishonest.Also the idea of a war game being anything except performative bullshit just to make themselves look good is an alien concept.
>>65455359it's "double plus cheap"
you take advantage of the new ruling yet?
>>6549904122 is the most worth it.
>>65498605maybe you can do both and get better baffles
>>65501398my biggest regret is not buy a integrally suppressed 22 ruger pistol and going with a rifle
>>65501398Gonna check the based LGS and see if they still have some in stock. .22 was the hottest selling caliber I noticed when I got my suppressors.
>>65499610Same here. State law basically requires an ATF Form 1 or Form 4 for any suppressor or SBR, and classifies it as completely banned otherwise. Republican state but of course tons of grabbers.
Thoughts about the Iranian female police?

>>65468590There was a guy in a Fast And Furious movie who had a team of hijabi bodyguards and their leader was Ronda Rousey in a cocktail dress looking like a goon. Michell Rodriguez stomps one of the hijabis right in the hoof.

>>65496445It reminds me of that Goblin prototype they tried to build to deploy fighters from larger bombers like flying aircraft carriers.
>Reject Faggot>Return to Tunnan
>>65503470The technical term is "parasite fighter" or, more generally, "parasite aircraft".
>>65500576Houses too, we live in great post-war abundance.
>>65496977>russian hookers do the nastiest shit here in austrias whorehouses, not even the african and latina bitches would take that.I believe this.
Big plon
I have a dumb question. Has anyone been caught by a storm while landed? I assume its too easy to see a storm on the horizon and just fuck off before the waves and the wind become too strong to take off.
pic related also looks like a flying boat
Post reloads, data, questions, cool stuff.previous: >>65445214
>>65488240Well, IIRC the MR 73's claim to fame is being retardedly sturdy and taking loads that would have kept ol' Elmer Keith hard for a week. It's probably not very smart to do anything fancy unless stage 1 of the process is "obtain an MR 73 in very good condition".It's going to be SP (i.e. jacketed) because it's loaded over 1400fps, which means they were going right to the line for CIP spec .357 with the BASIC load. Rolling your own is probably going to look something like pic attached.
>>65500264200gr and Blue Dot is what you want. 100% fill. Even the Joker isn't going to see the "95% burnt" line with that stuff.Power Pistol will work but there's better things you can do with it.
>>65502597blue dot is kinda an oddball thoughlots of people blow shit up using it, but there's a lot of bad .357 data out there for it so that might be a cause of outliersdunno, I abandoned it for longshot after many years of using it
>>65503490You can't go far wrong with .45 ACP if you've got a modern (designed within living memory) gun and a supported chamber, I load "book" Supers in small primer brass all the time and while those cases can stay in the dirt after that shot they never show any bad signs, you really do have to do something very retarded to have problems. .357 is a prime candidate for people doing retarded things, right enough.
>>65503490Thinking on it's not really useful but Alcan shotgun powders used to throw some bitchin' fireballs in a pistol load. Huge flakes, complete bastard to meter.

>>6550235710mm magnum is almost exactly that. I don't know that anyone still sells loaded ammo, but at least you can buy factory brass instead of cutting down rifle brass.

>>65503655>>65503739>>65503777looks amazing, is that an aftermarket trigger with the hole in the middle, or are they shipping them with adjustable ones now
Haven’t heard of anyone coming down with a sudden case of sigleg recently so I guess they got it figured out.
Sig continues to refuse to admit the vast majority of their MIM parts are made in India and Israel and these parts fail at a higher rate than MIM parts made in the USA. SIG refuses to admit the parts are made in two of the most retarded countries on Earth because if they admit it, they will probably be in violation of the Buy American Act and/or the Berry Amendment. AND because their engineers are fucking retarded, they decided to put Indian made MIM sears in one of the most widely adopted handguns of all time and expected absolutely nothing to go wrong. Then when it went horribly wrong, SIG refused to accept it was going horribly wrong and quadrupled down on stupid.
>>65499001Uh-huh.
>>65499001I'm just not going to buy your poorly designed trash pistol haha i'm just not going to do it lol.
>>65502014They would have had to buy new M9s if they didn't adopt the MHS, and the M9 is four times the price.
>>65499001>people with incentive to lie and a history of lying WOULD NEVER lie to the public about the pistol that benefits them as being found "safe"
Hi /k/, since you showed appreciation to my thread on the Caproni Museum, here's another one, the aviation museum just outside of Munich.I apologize in advance for the bad photos and incomplete reportage, but in there I felt overexcited like a kid high on sugar on Christmas morning, and I didn't have much time to spend there because later in the day I had to catch the flight back home.With that said, here's the first aircraft: a modern flying (AFAIK) replica of the Otto Doppeldecker. Designed by Gustav Otto, son of Nicolaus Otto inventor of the four stroke engine, and built by his company that later became BMW.
They are currently putting up a massive storage building just a couple hundred meters from my home, for all the planes and stuff that are not on public display in the Flugwerft at the moment. I wonder if one will be able to visit it. The facility is being erected on a huge vacant lot in an industrial area. It was completely overgrown with vegetation liek birch and willow saplings for many many years and in the center of which I had built a cozy, hidden track for my RC cars. Now it is all being bulldozed ... :-( but at least it was sacrificed for something cool.
>>65503149I remember when that VTOL plane with the long black spiky nose was still displayed in a courtyard of the Deutsches Museum, near the entrance.
>>65503213Still safer than the Me 163.>>65503216Indeed. I basically went there for that aircraft specifically and I was ecstatic to find all three.>>65503230>>65503316I'm pasta, so that may explain a few things. From what I can see in my area the demand for engineering jobs is still kinda strong, but there's two big issues: LinkedIn has made job hunting more difficult ad convoluted, and the wage offered isn't keeping up with the skyrocketing prices of gas and rent, so the already low disposal income is rapidly imploding.
Anyways, back to the museum. Here's the business end of Blue Streak. Alexander the Ok did an excellent video essay on this piece of British engineering.
And here's a diagram of the first stage. Probably not peak efficient, although simple and reliable. The Europa rocket was a three stages launch system, each stage provided by Britain, France, and Germany respectively. The partnership fell apart because of the UK, but then reformed as ESA, that stands to this date and produced the Ariane, one of the most successful and reliable launch systems.
Is there anything more sad and humiliating than watching your prized fleet stuck in the port unable to sail out, while slowly being picked apart by drones and missiles?
>>65498778Sleep tight, little snipper
>>65498990>The US and Israel is attempting to do the same thing Putin is doingyou're a retarded alphie. granted, orange man is an idiot that got hyped after the astounding success of maduro's capture and thought he could tangle with iran with no boots on the ground. but iran's not a victim. the ayatollah's regime is what causes the unrest in the middle east that's been going on for almost 40 years, al quaeda and isis all had close ties to iran and they're responsible for lone wolf operations in europe, including terrorist attacks in germany, france, and great britain. they're not the cradle of all evils, because israel itself is another tumor causing unrest ever since the suez crisis, and palestine and lebanon have had their fair share of war crimes against the west, but itan's the single most destabilizing force in the subcontinent and the eradication of the crazed hashish fueled theocracy is paramount to bring peace to the region.
>>65503242you're 90% of the way theresomeday you'll make the last 10% and realise that everything the Israelis do has merely been to defend themselves from the rest
>>65503543Is annexting southern lebanon a defense tactic, moshe-kun?
>>65503558yes, because they clearly need the defensive buffer zone from both conventional attacks and unconventional infiltration. the Israelis gave back Gaza two decades ago, look what happened.do you know what's the main hurdle with all the Israeli peace treaties? the Arab states and the UN demand that Israel demilitarise and reduce these defensive buffer zones, but refuses to protect Israel against future breaches of the peace by Palestinians and other jihadis.like a policeman who tries to break up a fight between two guys, citing THE LAW, but refuses to use that law against one side, only the other.or a teacher who only steps in when the victim fights back, and orders the bully and the victim to stop fighting, but refuses to stop the bully from continuing to bully the victim henceforth.to this day that is the single greatest hurdle in Middle East negotiations. Israel asks the Saudis, the UAE, and the UN, "according to this proposed treaty, you will defend them if we invade them? fine. will you defend us if they invade us?" and receives a deafening silence in answer.look at Oct 7. the Israelis KNOW that this is their future. they get infiltrated and stabbed and raped and kidnapped, and the world's response is: "I don't think you have, mate"it's happening to non-Jews too, because we are next on the block after them. for now it is happening to us only at the grassroots level, because that is where we are vulnerable. the West is under attack, under an intifada of stabbings and rape; and paying the jizya of "saving" the stabbers and rapists from the English Channel and Mediterranean, feeding them, housing them, entertaining them; and the response when they carry out their intifada is:"I don't think you've been stabbed, mate. now defund your Army, the welfare services need more money"
