Realistically, what firearm would you need to take down a rampaging Na'vi from the Avatar films? Nine feet of solid muscle and bone (reinforced with natural carbon fibre), extremely fast-moving and agile, fighting on their own turf with very short engagement distances? There's no way 5.56 mm would cut it, would 7.62mm be enough?
>>64767187I actually found the video, my misstake was looking at the high viewer count videos and looking at the thumbnail for crossbows or really big bows.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQbCjvkSNzUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U7TRDFjnFMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QqDPyTCAZ0And holy shit this aint 5 or 6 times the energy of a longbow, it is over 10-16 times the energy of the longbows in todd's arrow vs armor test 3.https://youtu.be/SFFgcTzCvMo?t=156 He didn't build a super crossbow or longbow. He built a super airgun that is about the same size as an assault rifle or battle rifle.>400 grams>1100 joules of energy>30 newton second>steel arrow stainless steel projectile (with hardened center punch tip?)
>>64754140>Their bodies have some sort of string carbon fiber reinforcement, making the “extremely hard to kill”.This and the Three Laws of E'ywa (no buildings, no fire, no metal tools) gives credence to the theory that Na'Vi were a warrior race that lost some galactic war and Pandora is their prison planet, with Ey'wa as their warden.Would be nice if they took a Na'Vi off planet and the moment it leaves atmosphere all hell breaks loose with some alien ships arriving.
>>64756381>>64756372>>64756463You all forget that Ey'wa knows exactly what civilization is and forbids using metal tools or building stone buildings, so she is either a creation of Na'Vi who abandoned technology or by some other civilization to keep Na'Vi contained.The fact that Na'Vi turn into maniacal bloodthirsty warriors the moment they get disconnected from the world fungus should tell you something which option is more likely.
>>64758294>Chiron shits all over Pandora, the RDA would last about 30 fucking hours on Chiron, and I'm being very fucking generous.You won't get stories like that anymore, people aren't literate enough to create them.I remember the short stories on AC site before the game was released, they were awesome.
>>64767187>>64767447>1000 joul compressed air cannon firing steel bolt >Still stopped by a steel target for .22s (but muh pinhole) >Posts video of a kevlar vest with anti stab insert like it's an iotv system which a normal crossbow and any center-fire rifle would penetrate Carbon fiber bone tipped arrows wouldn't even do that when as per current movie spider could belt span a water tribe composite crossbow. Thanks for proving that naavi can't melt steel armor inserts and the RDA soldiers should not be getting taken out by stormtroopers with direct shots to the torso.

I would like to know why this guy's name keeps popping up in glownigger speculative capabilities threads. He appeared in the sub-diffraction limit ISR thread a few days ago. What does this nigger REALLY do for Raytheon, besides Vice President-ing? It's not a coincidence that everytime some speculative black project is mentioned, this dude's name pops up somewhere in a related research paper.
A lot of "sci fi weapons" are in use and have been in use for a while, they're just in forms that people don't recognize as "a sci fi weapon" because they're normalized.Like heat rays. We have heat rays. They're called "flamethrowers".>um but that's not a laser or a beam of light orExactly my point. The whole purpose of a heat ray is "it sets things on fire at a distance", and if you try to use light by itself then you're just wasting energy because light ironically isn't a good transporter of heat unless it is at scale. But do you know what is a good transporter of heat at small scales? A stream of burning chemicals that have been partially vaporized. There's your heat ray, you're welcome.
>>64762267>>64762271Little differences in power are somewhat irrelevant when a single watt is enough to instantly blind at significant range.Goggles will be common, but they're a cope, you need to know beforehand what your enemy is using and green, blue, and red are all very common. Multi color lenses drop visibility so much that forcing your enemy to use them is an advantage in itself.The only solid solution is totally blocking off the eyes but that's basically a money-check on your enemy.
>>64746751We'll finally get some work done on artificial eyes, the flesh is weak
>>64767408Lenses are actually pretty lightweight and affordable so soldiers could carry multiple sets and wear them as needed. A base frame could filter non-visible light so soldiers would only need to see refraction from the laser to identify which lenses they need to use.
AK General /akg/Chocolate Chip Chinese Chestrig Edition>Thread #2086Old thread here >>64704982
I'm about to get my first AK in years, AK-103. I was shopping optics and should I go with a POSP with the Simonov reticle or the PK-A Venezuela? Alternatives are welcome but I want something combloc.
>>64766907Yes but no ak's. I meant to go out every other day this week until I got sick.
>>64767183You could always get a novus optic, modern combloc.
Guy on gun trader has a stock KR9 asking for $1900, what are the likely chances that KUSA comes back and starts making them again? Or should I jump on the deal?
>>64766907Used to shoot my AKs every weekend but currently recovering from a pretty serious workplace injury. I’ll try and go tomorrow if I can get transport because I undergo surgery on Monday and after that probably won’t be shooting any real guns for about a month or two.
That are reliable and don't cost $2000?

It's that time of year /K/ommandos! Were we reminisce the years that have past and look forward to the new one that is now unfolding! And that includes thinking up of goals for ourselves to achieve this year! You have been thinking of how to become a better /K/ommando right anon?Anyway, I haven't seen one of these threads in a few years, so lets get one going. How do you rank against your fellow /k/omrades?Bonus points if you can add stories about your achievements. Also maybe its time to update the board? Add a few more,
>Build potato cannon over 40mm >Cut barrel to under 16 inches>Install pistol brace>Shoulder it>Unscrew and igniter in under 30 seconds>Install in truckI propose that yes this is try hard points farming technicalities but also /k/ enough that it should count.
When I first made one of these I scored 145.
bump
I've been locked out of most of the /out/doors, competition, and NFA stuff for years due to my location but hopefully that'll change this year.
>>64745359How about an achievement called >Autism: Own more than five of the exact same gun
>880,000 dog attacks in the US of A requiring medical attention last year>Cannot be reasoned with in any capacity as opposed to most criminals that usually just want to steal your shit and will back off if they decide they can victimize someone else easierWhat calibers and firearms do you carry to protect against the pitter scurge? Shot placement?Keep in mind you may be in situations where you have to stop a loose shit bull from tearing some bystanders face off and over penetration is an actual concern when it's lockjawed onto that poor soul.

>>64767389I saw something like that. It was as tall as a doberman or great dane but instead of being lanky, it was a giant pit bull. It pushed past the owner who was stepping out the front door to smoke when I was walking down the street and ran out to get me all pissed off, barking and freaking out. I ran into traffic to avoid it. Luckily, there was traffic, and luckily, the dog didn't want to run into traffic. They had the whole family out on the front porch trying to hold this thing back by the collar; mom, dad, and daughter.
>>64767415cat bites lolrub some dirt on it
>>64767682No I’m not. I don’t know who that is. Calm down

>>64767540Anon, you don't get civil rights movements from chemicals, you get them from niggers.
We have just seen the US carry out Operation Absolute Resolve, a flawless raid in Venezuela but there's so much more than what meets the eye.The fact that the Nightstalkers could just infil and exfil on gunships guns blazing is insane in the era of gay drones and MANPADS. They didn't even have to worry about the overall IADS. IR dazzlers or just shooting back was very effective against any fuckers that tried to get a shot off. More than half of the air assets in theater being SIGINT and EW just shows the importance of spectral dominance in addition to SEAD and as SEAD itself. It's obvious Growlers used their brand spanking new mid-band Growler pods to jam fire control radars, F-35s used their Barracuda suites, but what the EC-130H's were doing could be anyone's guess. But the power went out and that says something.
>>64743905Are you talking about lifetime upfront infrastructure costs or are you just repeating something you saw on xitter?

Is there a branch that is sort of functional and elitist in the russian military? >vdvNigga pleaseIn India, the Navy is the most elitist branch, they are professionals about it>Black sea fleet is now the submarine forceYeah, I know they were pathetic in this war
>>64767505It was actually 2.2 billion, but this was after the russian shipyard stopped working on the ship for two whole years and had to be wrangled in their blatant acts of corruption by the Russian president himself because Russian military exports were only netting them 8 billion in total. Mind you, this shipyard had only worked on submarines so they were never equipped to deal with carriers in the first place
>>64767599Which shipyard, Mykolayiv?
>>64767605Sevmash
>>64767125Sweet Mary, what is this and where can I see more of it
Russia had the second most successful space program on earth, with two brief stints in the #1 spot (1957 to 1966, 2012 to 2018)I always wondered what set it apart from, y'know, literally everything else in Russia
special forces troops are highly overrated
>>64766166Why would you want "peak murderers" with a drug problem as your generals? How does being good at killing civilians to cover up your botched raid make you good at organizing logistics for thousands of men or tailoring the means of your use of force to accomplish political ends?
>>64765503>kidnaps your country's presidentWhat are you going to do about it? Good spec ops are worth their weight in gold because the average soldier will always be bad at his jobs.
>>64765503They aren't overrated when you consider them what they are - people who got picked to an actual minimal standard, people who know how to use their equipment, follow orders, and have more training than the rest.People tend to view them as superman, they are just a unit that can be relied on to consistently perform, understand english, not be myopic, drive a car, walk 10 miles without dying, maintain radio discipline, etc.They are basically what soldiers are supposed to be, not supermen.
>>64765882>>64766166>high functioning sociopaths with coke problems.>High functioning sociopaths with upper addictionsThis is unironically the norm/standard in any management/leadership/professional field in society.You don't really realize it until you actually get to a "professional career" and start interacting with these people personally/outside work, but basically anyone intelligent and successful or in a position of leadership/management is doing hookers and blow or finding a way to have more sex and do drugs secretly behind their families back.
