>>64759214The ares/fightlite is a lot better than the ligma too though. I will agree these things do have some advantages. Are they worth it for the role intended? Debatable. The primary advantage, weight, is completely negated by making it a fixed emplacement water cooled gun though lol.
>>64759100Also drop the ROF down to ~350 rpm, so you can beat Maxim's record of 5000 continuous rounds without stoppages.
>>64759015Finally, a rifle for fighting on the moon.
>>64759015An upper based on the Lewis gun would be more practical.
>>64759019it just uses a few AR Parts, its a beltfed
With modern lasers, capacitors, and power plants how many 500 lb JDAMs could be shot down if all were targeting the laser?Let's assume 2 kilometers altitude, 1000 km/h speed.Could they even do 1?
What's the mechanism a laser disables a JDAM? Fry its fuse? Its laser guidance package? Detonate its explosives? Do modern US bombs have explosives that explode when they get hot?
>>64760506>With modern lasers, capacitors, and power plants how many 500 lb JDAMs could be shot down if all were targeting the laser?Realistically like, maybe one? Lasers aren't anywhere near powerful enough to be instantly popping incoming munitions, they require time on target. And even if they were that fast, heat buildup prevents shooting for significant lengths of time. And then even if you did solve these problems, you'd start coating munitions in ablative material for use against lasers.
>>64760506Lasers are good against missiles and drones because all it needs to do is disable or render inaccurate the thing pushing the munition forward.A gravity bomb following a ballistic trajectory is going to hit roughly the same place whether you blind it or cook its guidance or whatever. It's going to be much harder for a laser to hard kill destroy a JDAM before it hits the ground.
lasers don't actually work despite all the hype
>>64760506It bugs the shit out of me how useless iron bombs are in the game. Everything can track them and shoot them down even without radar guidance.

>>64759471Congrats on a nice compass, something you can have your whole life. Learning land nav/orienteering is useful, and beneficial even if you use GPS and digital options. Something to do is get some topo printed for your area and places you go outdoors, if you laminate them even better, would also recommend some ranger beads to pace count. https://www.natgeomaps.com/trail-maps/pdf-quadsHigh quality survey maps, and there's trail versions, too where applicable on the site. Prints a 7.5 minute quad map with 1 page key, 4 pages quad.
>>64760201>Are water bladders even worth buying? I don't see how they're particularly better than any water bottle inside a backpack or something other than convenieceConvenience can make a big difference to your water intake. If taking a drink means taking your pack of or awkwardly reaching for a badly positioned pocket then you're going to hydrate less than someone who can just sip from the tube dangling over their shoulder.
>>64760662newest map on that site for my area was '97https://topobuilder.nationalmap.gov/ has newer topos but the checkout is weird, I think they are free but you have to wait for them to email it to you
>>64760702took about 15min for the email to show up with a download linkit 's overlayed on arial images, images look about 2 years oldkinda shitty for home printing, looks like you can deselect layers though
>>64760702Old but topo doesn't change very often, you'd probably be aware when it is. Not using these for roads obviously. never bothered to find something newer, report back your experience of the newer one if they print good and are accurate enough it's good to know alternatives.
Lockheed Martin's latest promotional video about their LRASM antiship missile engaging a Chinese Type 055 Cruiser launched from a F-35
>>64760477>Wait, are you that eternally asshurt indog that gets around shitting up any SEA thread?I think that's a butt hurt malay who hates Singapore and Australia equally. In any case, they didn't say anything about Singapore being CCP puppets so I don't think it's that particular tard
>>64760477The last I heard: The F-35C and recently the F-35B are undergoing testing and integration for the LRASM. Australians have been whining about the LRASM integration for their F-35A and also their SSN for a few years. No, I'm the American that hate most Americans and all foreigners.
>>64760308Just image the whole hull splitting in half with a massive explosion and chink body parts flying all over the place.
>>64759637did they intentionally make it look like an ace combat mission briefing
>>64760128It's fucking incredible how many people don't understand that external munitions stores showing up on radar is still a fuckload smaller than a 4th gen with external stores showing up on radar.The F-35's EW systems don't suddenly turn off either, and they're pretty fucking nasty for something that's not a dedicated EW platform.>>64760616At this point I'd be kind of surprised if the inspiration wasn't flowing both ways. AC has a lot of fans involved in real military aviation and adjacent fields because it's the fantasy of what they all wish they were really doing.
Reloading generalMy press after sizing/depriming/cleaning primer pockets of over 6,000 pieces of .45 Auto brass.My die is an undersized die from EGW. They have Lee custom make dies .003" undersized to eliminate Glock bulge on brass. With my RCBS dies I had some rounds not fit in a match chamber.

>>64760090I for one really hate the RCBS hand primer, I don't know if i've got a defective product, but with small primers the little bastard jams up often, the entry level LEE single stage press auto prime blew it out of the water.for some reason the fucking thing makes the primers seat wrong and the priming ram gets hung up on the plastic and case holder
How would you defeat this?
>>64760703it goes through it without doing much damage. why do you ask?
>>64760736no, it destroys the material around the area of the impactthe material deforms faster than energy can be transferred to the rest of the object, and breaks offthe projectile thus carries on its way through the target, without transferring all its energy to the targethence in >>64760092 this example, it is possible that a small number of particles will achieve fusion, producing a relatively large explosion, but most of the projectile's mass is likely to pass through the target
Reapers are shielded from what I remember. EM then high volume of conventional weapons? AP kinetic and HE.
>>64760714The fans ruined her, really. The romance was only there because of how vocally people wanted it.Oddly I think the same is true of Garrus's romance option but that actually works decently. I appreciate how it's framed as Shep initiating it too, they didn't want you feeling like you were turning him down if you were a femshep and just wanted to keep the bromance going.

There's no real need to rehash why mechs don't work but what is the ideal jungle support vehicle then?
>>64754746>here's no real need to rehash why mechs don't workYes they do
>>64754949what about that truck with the huge saw blades on it from that one indiana jones movie
Ground vehicles are losing relevance and are going to keep losing relevance as time goes on and drones become ever more advanced. See >>64755286 - if you come across something in the jungle that infantry can't handle by themselves, then drone swarms or aerial vehicles (themselves also drones) will take over.
>>64754746literally just this >>64755310remove the jungle = remove the problemjungles are dogshit to traverse even for infantry, let alone anything weighing over a ton that can't (relatively) easily snake between treessame reason you don't bring land vehicles to mountains that don't have very sturdy and clear paths going through themif you intend on crossing the jungle by land you gotta remove the jungle (or stop being retarded and go over it)>>64760694here we go again>>64760755until infantry itself becomes obsolete it's going to need ground support no matter how vulnerable>something something flag planted something something not your territory
>>64760277yeah it's a huge lazy downgrade aesthetically, you could tell me right was from ghost recon or the division or whatever near-future game you want and aside from the patches it would 100% look it. it's bad even if you're not comparing it to beck's work
Late Christmas EditionPost what you want about anything. No rules.Previous thread: >>64597464
>>64760696I personally wouldn't modern ammo in the older M27 and M28 rifles without checking the diameter of the barrel but M39's will be completely fine with or without the D barrel
>>64760734is this why m39s are so expensive? Using cheap russian ammo or new stuff from PPU without messing up the barrel seems like a pretty big advantage.
>>64760761Nah its just that Finnish M39's are genuinely the best version of the Mosin rifle. Everything about them is betterOnce you've experienced both of them you'll see how much better the M39 is
>>64760777yeah I heard they are amazing. I just wouldn't want to buy one and then find out all of my nugget food is accidentally destroying the gun
>>64760796Just make sure you clean if its corrosive and dont shoot steel targets if its not 70's yugo unless you want to fuck up your target and you'll be plenty fine

How effective are the Japanese Self Defense Forces? Could they be as bad ass as the Imperial Japanese Army? How do they stack up to the PLA, Russian or Western armies if Japanese is allowed to fully re-arm?

>>64758303Well let's not forget how they also liberated Taiwan from stupefying Confucian ways, and started them on the road to becoming a land of industry and rational inquiry. It was an awesome burden the Japanese bore, but they took it on gladly.To this day, the places that Japan wisely led are far more developed than their neighbors. How about that?
