I found this old rifle hidden in my grandparents house and they weren’t even aware they had it. My grandma said she was pretty sure it was my great grandfathers. The only thing I’m sure of is that it’s a Japanese one but I’m not sure the specific one

It is though? The setup cost for making milspec AK quality stamped parts is prohibitive for most small businesses.
Soviet AKs were made in massive, well equipped state run plants that were set up over the course of several years under Russian supervision.
Once this huge initial investment is made, the actual AK is "cheap to make" in the same way a single consumer grade CPU is "cheap to make".

i don't know if this is the right thread but I don't see anything in the catalog about surplus. I don't know anything about surplus or gear. I saw pic related at the Goodwill and thought it might be an m65 jacket so I bought it for a couple bucks. It has this gilly suit kind of burlap stuff sewn on. Now that I've looked into it I don't think it's an m65 because it doesn't have the folding hood in the collar but I assume it's genuine because it has that USMC stamp on the pocket. I can't make out much on the tags. Any idea what it is and if the burlap stuff is an actual feature or just sewn on by some boyscout or air softer?

After seeing my twatter timeline filled with actual paid shills for the Gripen E around the Canada discourse I have utter disdain for it.

The F-16 is also getting an internal EW suit, ditching the pod

they will probably build starbase-2 in orbit where they can actually build more complex/bigger spacecraft but until then the simplest cheapest thing you can get to orbit is probably what you can put inside a starship payload bay or mod the starship into

Dragon functions as the cockpit. It docks on the forward ring to an armed cargo block, walla, instant space gunship, infinitely upgradable.
>>
>>64670128
I've considered this idea before myself but I don't think there is really benefit for using crewed vehicles in any sort of plausible modern space combat scenario. Any thing that requires military action in space any time in the near future would be confined to low earth orbit which is close enough that any comms delays would be negligible meaning there is no reason it couldn't just be remotely operated from ground stations. Also a gunship wouldn't be the ideal form factor for a modern weaponized spacecraft because it would most likely just be used for destroying or capturing satellites and you'd want to minimize the creation of secondary debris in commonly used orbits so weapons that damage without fracturing the target would be best (Electronic warfare, direct energy weapons, just pushing the thing out of orbit,etc).

Honestly I think the core technology really missing is self propagating small unmanned vehicles capable of doing detail work. Shipping stuff up into orbit is a losing proposition vs sourcing what you need and assembling it already in space. Until that becomes a reality I don't see anything coming from space combat outside of one or two super powers launching them for clout before proceeding to do absolutely fuck all with them outside of burning literal piles of money on maintaining them.

Why would you do that, lol, they're fucking ugly. Their women in particular look like they're covered in a layer of shit.

so let me get this straight: it has the profile of a ww1 tank, is slow as an interwar tank, has the armor of a ww2 tank, has the gun of a modern tank BUT with worse range, penetration, and precision, doesn't have CMs, doesn't have ERA, doesn't have an autoloader, doesn't have GPS, doesn't have telemeters or aiming softwares of any kind, it barely has an electric motor to turn the turret, it barely has a radio, and you're telling me THIS is a futuristic design?

It's not supposed to be futuristic, the principle of Warhammer is that most futuristic technologies developed in the past have been lost or are in the process of being lost so it's quite logical to have tanks equivalent to WWII when genuinely futuristic weapons exist in this universe

Yes, by changing it towards the original proto rejected by boomer generals in the peacetime.
>Do Russians soldiers still prefers the oldies AK74Ms
Some do, if only out of sense of familiarity and\or having a bag of Zenitco stuff to deck in out in. Aftermarket for the 12 is still a bit sparse, esp. with the changes to the grip\FCS and muzzle device in recent revisions.

Also, we now have a heavy(-ish) barrel assault shorty for some sweaty balls-to-crack CQB.
>>
>>64680434
Would you say that the current version of AK12 is meanginful superior to AK74M or is just slight more light?

Do Russians soldiers would prefer to use captured western rifles like HK416, UAR 15 etc if they had access to its ammo?
>>
>>64680347
Its okay. Now that they reverted the burst to a regular 74 trigger, the reliability issues have mostly evaporated; and the newer magpul style furniture is much tougher than the original buffer tube shit. 74s are preferred because of the aftermarket and don't have the quality stigma of the ak12, but with the native ability to mount optics and lights, the actual necessity of the aftermarket is way diminished; which could be said to be the whole point of the gun. The mags are excellent, seriously sought after even by guys who otherwise hate the gun. There will always be those who refuse to accept it, simply because the 74 didn't have these teething problems (at least nobody is old enough to remember), but on the whole its a decent if unambitious upgrade.
>>64680469
generally no, but depend on who they are. a lot of times guys capture a gun with a thermal, and they have no means to use it on their own gun; so it makes sense to just keep using the gun it came on while ammo lasts. it also cant be discounted that its a whole generation of gamers, who think M4s and 416s are cool and just appreciate them as a trophy.
