A dragon has claimed your city and is snatching up citizens to be part of its treasure hordeHow would you, an ordinary citizen, take it out with only the weapons available to you? It has tough scales, can fly, spew fire, and is large enough to swallow a person whole. What can you do with the weapons and ordinance of a single civilian to kill it?
>>64676766Put an 8mm Mauser round down its throat when it opens its mouth and then remove the head with either my Windlass long sword or my Landsknecht Emporium short sword since doing so is allegory to severing the umbilical cord and starting new life.The treasure is allegory for the chosen ancestors' blessing going into the descendant who is also their reincarnation.

Do wooden logs work as armor or is it cope?
>>64675531it worksand by works i mean it gives the crew some confidence and the feeling of control
It worked for the Pinoys since their terrorists and rebel groups use homemade RPG-2s.For Thais and Cambodians it barely makes sense since they have actual weapon exports but I'm not complaining if it helps protect the crew from getting blown up alive.Ukraine and Puccia don't use them outside for foliage, even cope cages are largely useless.
when my battalions was preparing to go to gazawhile everyone was loading equipment into their heavily armored namers i saw the combatants that had to crew the M113s to accompany the support personnel they were busy tying sand bags to the sides of the APCwould that make any difference? nodid i tell them it wont make a difference? of course not

Gripen pilot, shareholder, and spokesperson says stealth is irrelavent 70's tech on major youtubers podcast
>>64682330Anon, what you're looking at there is the INTERNAL cost the DoD charges to other DoD branches if they want to fly a mission using another branch's assets, if the army asks the airforce to fly a mission, they pay the airforce a SUBSIDIZED rate. What you're looking at is a breakdown of that SUBSIDIZED rate. What isn't included in that figure is the salary of the pilots/ground crew, the cost of the logistical support from lockheed, depot maintenance costs, and costs spent to modify the jet (modification costs for the year get added up together and divided by the total number of airframes to make it "fair"). So yeah, the ACTUAL cost to fly is much closer to $30,000/hour than it is $17,000/hr.
>>64682353you have anything to back up this claim?
>>64682387I mean, read the title?RCPFH means Reimbursable Cost Per Flight Hour.They're reimbursable costs because you bill them to the other branch that's asking for you to do the flight. The most recent CBO report on the F-35 says ~$45,000-60,000/hrhttps://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2025-06/61347-F-35-Availability.pdf
For a 30k per hour flight costAre they unironically doing literally hundreds of hours of maintenance for 1 hour of flight?
>>64682332>No, they aren't. Not even close.They objectively are

>>64682610probably older, not even an interlocking ball desigh, and hybrid poly/kevlar backer.as for modern AP, I can still say, it probably hes the best chance to stop your mentioned threats, out of any civ-sold plate. it did stop SLAP, (v50)picrel: you with that 7.5lb plate
>>64682680>as for modern AP, I can still say, it probably hes the best chance to stop your mentioned threats, out of any civ-sold plate. it did stop SLAP, (v50)Granted, it did that two or three times, but if we're getting engaged by M948 then things have really gone to pot and threats like .338 AP529 are in play. What I would like to see is a TiB2-SiC version of the 8002 that splits the difference between the 8002 and Colossus halfway in cost but beats the Colossus on raw threat level. Similarly, 7.5lb "Heavy Colossus" that stops very hard shit like .338 7N49 and AP529 cold, along with M948 100% of the time. I think Jake's a shady guy (pic rel is his first business address back at Diamond Age - a supplement store in TX) but the strength of the TiB2-SiC he's peddling is undeniable. IMO, that's the future of midweight ceramics as soon as it becomes price-effective from other guys.This is apocryphal and totally anecdotal, but I remember seeing a RUAG presentation showing a Level IV plate losing to M993 at 150 meters, but when backed by doubled-up IIIA M993 could not beat it at all. Worst case scenario, back the 8002 or Colossus with good soft armor to try and shorten the odds.>picrel: you with that 7.5lb plateCeradyne 80571 in the fresh, .50 BMG protective with standoff. Very nice! For the record, my 2230s are 0.8lb lighter than G1 1155s, over a pound lighter than honestly sized Highcom 4S17Ms, and 0.2lb lighter than Hesco 4403s.
>>64682610>7.62x51 Swiss P AP is from 1998 and M993 originates in the 1970s. They aren't really modern designs a la AP11LR, 7N37, 7N51, DM151, M1158, or the .300 / .338 heavy hitters.Aside from 7N37 and XM1184 the real "heavy hitter AP" is rare as hell, even in military service. And I remember that people on X.com were saying that the Russians don't even issue tungsten-core small arms any longer, that everything people are finding is all steel-core these days.Rusanon, is that true?
>>64681356This is one of those things, I can't really tell if it's cool or cringe.
>>64682852>Aside from 7N37 and XM1184 the real "heavy hitter AP" is rare as hell, even in military service.Don't forget XM1154, the .338 Lapua ADVAP, and M1162, the .338 Norma version of AP529. Swedes have a better M948, Germans run DM151 and .300Win DM131. The issue is less that it's rare, more that it is held in reserve for when it's actually needed. As a hypothetical, I'd be willing to bet that if Buffalo dipshit rolled a pair of XSAPIs or Adept Collosi instead of RMA 1093s, that'd make the news and there would be a kneejerk adoption of exotic AP across numerous PDs.Active shooters are bad. Heavily armored active shooters are worse. >Russians don't even issue tungsten-core small arms any longer, that everything people are finding is all steel-core these days.I'll let Rusanon answer, but they did recently upgrade their 7.62x54R "super AP" to 7N51, which is a longer-core beefed up 7N37. I think it's primarily steel core but primo units get the very good stuff. Obviously it all takes back stage versus artillery, drones, etc.
Are Battleships huge cannons better or worse than Close air support and other kind of artillery for the purpose of supporting infantry?
>>64681793I wish it was true anon, but they make all kinds of shit we do use. Cheap bulk chips for microwaves and such. Serial produced inverters. Everything to do with green stuff like solar panels. Lots of base materials we use here too, like chemicals. BASF and BAYER arent making their cheap precursors here. We need to reshore a shitload of low value stuff to be self sufficient. Ship building for example. All the shells are built in China even when finished here.
>>64681685Buddy, if we're at war with China that's already out the window. That's part of why nobody's raring to go to war with them.
>>64681685>they'd never do that because China is the world's industrial baseIllogical. If China is using that industrial base to undermine, destroy and addict the rest of the world, then they pulled some Pearl Harbor bullshit with unflagged ships, there would be hell to pay. We can make our own unadulterated feedstocks and cheap plastic shit.
>>64664970They're too inaccurate to really function as support weapons, and are obviously limited to shoreline attacks.
>>64664970Depends where. If you are near the sea then a battleship can rain down very heavy fire rapidly and for a significant amount of time. So in a war over an island chain for example where you have to fight island by island then having a big floating gun platform you can park off the coast and start blasting away with makes a fair bit of sense.
Now that the dust has settled, what is the /k/onsensus on the MiG-23?

>>64682781https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U61000
>>64682807Yes, that chip, the serial production began in 1990, 6 years behind Toshiba or Hitachi.https://www.nytimes.com/1984/11/02/business/japan-develops-1-megabit-chip.htmlhttps://www.xda-developers.com/hitachi-1mb-chip-first/By 1988 Siemens was taping ICs of 4-mbits despite being behind Japan in 1984.https://www.siemens.com/global/en/company/about/history/stories/4mbit-dram.html
>>64682823Which is astounding for a Soviet puppet state.
>>64682838Not if you remember that they had Carl Zeiss and all the patents, publications and RE with real chips (DRAM is repetitive) and 6 years of time.The 1990s showed that creating analogues is better than trying to RE a complex chip, that's why fake-Pentium chips based on RISC were so popular, sometimes better than the "original" and proliferated during the late 1990s-early 2000s but 8086 to i286 were rare and almost always worse than the "originals".
How would you arm and operate a small squadron of rebel troopers in 3 ABY?

Was the Yugoslav military the 4th strongest military in the 80s-90s before it fell apart?
Not to sound like an ass, but they looked like typical commie cannon fodder
Of course, they were using SKS’s
>>64682406Called papovka. They're still used as ceremonial arms by the honor guard here.May dad used it as a service rifle but he was in a signals unit. Won a shooting competition with it, got a day pass, got drunk and climbed a fence back into the barracks 'to not get in trouble'. He's a humble man so he claims the only reason he won was because he had a well maintained rifle while some of his comrades already had fucked up barrels.He was handed an AK after independence but didn't know how to use it properly. When ordered to fire 'single shots' he went fully automatic, got yelled and told to fire 'single shot' again. Fired a burst again, got yelled at again and had to explain he never used the weapon before. Ended up guarding bosnian refugees at the border for a while.He tells the story everytime he's drunk.
>>64682446>When ordered to fire 'single shots' he went fully automatic, got yelled and told to fire 'single shot' again. Fired a burst again, got yelled at again and had to explain he never used the weapon beforeI'm guessing his assumption was the selector would start small and work its way to auto lol. If I remember correctly, the semi position is at the bottom so panicked soldiers wouldn't slam the safeties down and mag dump mindlessly

I used to intern with a Class II FFL precision rifle builder who also manufactured some NFA items and no joke, you can literally make a good quality (albeit rough finished) suppressor for under $100 provided you have a lathe. You can make even cheaper wipe suppressors for close to $50 out of pipe tubing you find on amazon. I remember watching this video by an American volunteer in the Ukrainian International Legion who talk about a company in the Czech Republic that sold suppressors for the Bren 2 that cost $125 so clearly it doesn't cost that much to make them yet I'm having a hard time finding anyone selling even shitty .22lr whip suppressors for under $500. Certainly with the NFA tax going away you'd think there'd be a market for cheap suppressors in the US right?
>>64678710>Californiayes anon, that question was stupid as fuck
>>64679540Because the rim on the bellend is one of the spots with the highest density of nerve endings, so hitting it multiple times on the same stroke like >>64681097 generates more stimulation than a single "baffle".
>>64676719I would honestly rather have the $200 tax and no fingerprints/paperwork/restrictions.
>>64676719Okay but how do I legally make my own shotgun suppressor?
at least in the us it is leagal to buy and have a supressor for your firearm. here in Argentina it is forbidden for civilians to use supressors even if you want to use it for hunting. reserved only for army and military forces
Still reeling from the sheer retardation of the Battleship proposal, plus that it'll be replacing the DDG(X) project.But the FF(X) looks good. It won't have VLS in it's first flight, but it'll have an established supply chain and available logistics for repair and maintenance. As long as they don't try to make more capable than it needs to be, i think it'll be a good boat.
>>64682418>It could be the Navy just wants to stop putting VLS on anything that isn't a Burke or a Trump. Which is to insane but -- Navy.I would say that's too retarded even for the United States Navy, but then again, we do live in the ultra gay & stupid timeline, so I don't even know anymore, maybe trump will tell the Navy to start putting guns on submarines next.
>>64682548>>64682585It's 2025, you have a web of unmanned pickets with sonars, you don't need a helicopter flying around which can never get close to 100% uptime
>>64682644Better to have both. Don't put your eggs in one basket.
>>64682644You don't need 100% uptime from an ASW helo. If they drop sonobuoys, those sensors stay active for hours at a time, if they get a contact you can then send the helicopter back out, at which point it can use it's dipping sonar to get a firing solution and then drop it's torpedo(s). All things which can be done hundreds of miles away from the ship.You're no different to the "everything is obsolete now because drones" smoothbrained retards that have sprung up over the past few years.
>>64674827From the looks of it it's more in line with an old WW2 sort of DD. A small, fast escort, patrol or raiding ship. In the context of a fleet containing a "battleship", these would fight other small boats trying to rush down the battleship (with the main gun on the front and any secondaries, maybe also the missiles at long range), and also have some utility against larger targets (Anti ship missile launchers on the stern).
