Realistically, how long will it take for demining efforts to ensure war torn parts of Ukraine are habitable again, especially in the eastern part of the country?
>>64554819>This is the mind of a /k/edditor
>>64550499Demining? Habitable?
>>64561476I was expecting a cut to the aftermath where they got massacred because someone posted this vid.
>>64559053Shouldn´t a Taurus or a JASSM be able to hit the pillars and completely level the structure?Just for the propaganda purposes it would be worth it. I do understand that Ukraine don´t have those weapons, I just don´t understand how it can take so long since technically, if they only hit the part of the bridge that is on the Crimean side, they aren´t even attacking Russia. It´s super pathetic that Germany can´t deliver the Taurus.
>>64561655the bridge is probably too heavily defended by nowGermany isn't going to deliver Taurus because they have no other cruise missile weapon, it is their best strike weapon short of US nukes. all the weapons given to Ukraine so far by anyone has been stuff that is obsolescent or to be replaced very soon, because they know all fragments will end up in Chinese hands

>>64560487Stealth jets don't need those tricks
>>64559416>our engines very good da :))))))))))))>fucking spews smoke like a MiG-29 when pulling alpha
>>64559450for a fixed wing aircraft it's some pretty impressive slow speed maneuverability, the insane thrust to weight ratio and control at high angles of attack. but it's militarily useless.
>>64560487>>64561296speed, altitude and the ability to shoot first have been the meta in air combat since literal day oneeven in the worst years of the 60s the gunless F-4 was still the most capable air-to-air fighter in the world, despite the USAF insisting on not training pilots in how to use it for killing enemy fighters.
>>64561863>>64560487>>64561296also notice how the ziggers have spent the last 30 years throwing around Su-27++++'s at airshows near stall speed, but when they actually have to fight a war it's the MiG-31s with the huge engines and huge missiles that get put up in the air
Can you really kill a guy with an old fashion sling shot?
>>64553881an often ignored thing from that era is swords for most everyone but the cheapest infantry, were back up weapons. Knights preferred being on a horse with their lance, if they were using a sword on their horse then it was to get back to their squire/page to get a new lance, same for longbowmen, they carried swords, but their main weapon was the longbow. Since the beginning of warfare men have tried to kill the enemy at a distance because it puts you at less risk, these weapons are no different to that concept.
>>64559910It also says at the end of 2Samuel 21 that all 4 were defeated by David
>>64551208>>64558407>ancient warfare still took the time to troll one another by writing on their weapons/projectiles
>>64561142>be light infantry cop>call comes in>we got an active school slinger sheeeit
>>64560138Sorry, it did not occur to me you might be a protestant. I am sad for you, being unknowingly fed a purposely mistranslated Bible. The original has not the word "brother" in it. Just a few more examples: Psalm 8:5 has “angels” instead of “gods”, Psalm 22:16 and Zechariah 12:10 adds the word “pierced”, Deuteronomy 8:3 adds “word”, Genesis 22:8 “God will provide a lamb for himself." became “God will provide himself as the lamb.” and 1 Chronicles 6 “Kohath, Amram, Aaron, Moses” became “Kohath his son, Amram his son, Aaron his son, Moses…”. But it is just the supposed word of God being perverted, no biggie.

Is the military cool or gay? I have some sort of urge to join. Cannot explain it.
>>64555812Being in the military is simultaneously the best and worst job in the world. It is difficult to describe how this feels in a way someone else can understand it. Lots of good times that are stolen moments in a world of bullshit. Being able to understand and share feelings with the people around you without saying anything, but also trying your best to hold on to what makes you your own person. Society sucks you off one minute, shits on you the next. Counting the days until you can gtfo, feeling like you should have stayed in after you do, then laughing at any attempt to get you to come back. Then one day realizing you might have become the ridiculous fat old boomer vet bro you and your friends mercilessly mocked when you were in.
>>64555812>Is the military cool or gay?When you're doing it, is gayer than you could ever imagine. In fact, its not just gay but also retarded. However, in retrospect, when its all over, you'll realize it was the coolest shit ever.
>>64557359sounds like joining the Army was best thing you could do for youbut at same time worst thing for the Armylolif you get out with Honorable Discharge you will be able to saddle someone else with yourself :)
>>64561429PS....are you White or like a Jeet or some shit?
>>64555812Mostly gay with some cool once in a while
During the test, Türkiye's KIZILELMA fighter jet drone locked onto target F-16 at a distance of 30 miles using the Murad AESA radar developed by Aselsan. It then executed a simulated firing with Gökdoğan BVR missile produced by Tübitak SAGE. In the simulated attack, Bayraktar KIZILELMA successfully hit the highly maneuverable F-16 target, marking a major step in the history of air-to-air combat https://www.defenceturkey.com/en/content/historic-trial-for-bayraktar-kizilelma-locked-onto-an-f-16-scored-a-direct-hit-in-simulated-fire-6389

Sublime. With this most recent achievement, fate has in a single stroke, marked the decline of the west and spelled a new era of wondrous prosperity and peaceful global dominance for the Ottoman bull, which promises to firmly stand in sharp contrast to the historically bloody ascent of western powers and the cruel subjugation it brought to the humbler nations of the world. With the blessings of Ottoman quantum TB-2 drones, quantum miniature cruise missiles, and quantum enhanced watermelons will be the instruments with which TÜRKIYE affirms its noble stewardship of 21st century world politics and offers the non-western world a different option; an humanist alternative to the depredations of Western leadership and the opportunity for a more equitable and dignified multilateralism.
>>64540923Turkey*
>>64557423They also voted that they wanted to unify with Greece, following which you seem to be conveniently ignoring the fact that Turkey invaded them, genocided the Greeks in Northern Cyprus and then resettled it with Turks. Why would they want to live in a state with those people exactly, especially so soon after it happened?

I thought you might want to know that my new muzzle brake takes away most of the recoil on the WristWrecker5000...I might actually be able to one-hand this gun nowhttps://youtu.be/av4KQTR9FN8Just felt like this was in some way a /k/ project, so I should inform you guys...

>>64551007f-for you...
>>64559468why would you have a C96 in any other caliber than 7.63?
>>64561318For the novelty, mainlyAlso, the C96 was historically also made/converted in other calibers like 9mm and .45, so why not have another if you can? With how expensive original pieces are getting, having one made with modern materials and modern machining doesn't make that much of a difference anymore, I figure. Gunsmithanon can prove me wrong, of course.
>>64549008Hell yeah anon. Good on ya.
Would this be able tò deflect a Blow from a bronze sword?
related note, because i dont want to start a new thread...Anyone have images of info on "Irish Halberd"s? they may also be called "atlantic Halberd"s.They seem to be something like an axe length handle with a triangular copper blade similar to an adze? idk chalcolithic items seem to be somewhat hard to research as well as archeologists and anthropologists not using "halberd" in the way we might.also OP you dont want those masks they may turn you into a vampire.
>>64559067How was it fired?
>>64560945If it is normal clay; Yes; once.If it was carved from igneous or metamorphic, maybe more than one, depends on blow, thickens and composition. Sedimentary? One per area. Probably get cut more from the shards of the blow than the blow itself.
No.64559067>they are reglious masksyes at least 2 or 3 strikes.
>>64559067It would be extremely painful.

WHERE CAN I FIND A COMPLETE GLOCK 20 SLIDE?!! OFF BRAND IS FINE BUT NO GAY SHIT. YES I SEEN THE ONE ON EBAY FOR $790 OR WHATEVER BUT FUCK THAT!!HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!
>>64561401Glock OEM slides are expensive as fuck. You'll have to settle for some gay brownells or zevslop if you want it cheap. Alternatively hunt around for a cheap used glock and just strip it.I needed a 26 slide and I found a Glock 26 brand new for cheaper at a LGS than the fucking slides by themselves online.
You're telling me we had the AR-10 back in 1956, but we didn't replace the M14 until 1969?
>>64559965>>64559985>>64560906That was the earliest form/development of the rifle. As >>64560064 points out with focused engineering development and trials it turned out excellent.The amount of procurement and development effort poured in over years to the M14: if that had ? been devoted by U.S. Army to ArmaLite's rifle it might have been better than picrel, and would have developed even further had it been adopted officially circa 1960-61 by the United States.>thus concludes another episode of Alternative Timeline
>>64559590this
>>64559985Just replace the barrel with a conventional one.Easy and obvious fix. No reason to disqualify an otherwise excellent gun.
>>64561608That was the first thing they did afterwards, and it still didn't make the cut.>Mr. Dorchester learned of some of the excellent work Dave Mathewson in New Haven had done for us on the T44, so he approached Dave for assistance. Dave had some T44 barrel blanks on hand, and together [he and Stoner] worked up an all steel barrel design for the AR-10 as light as the original composite design by the technique of milling long slots or flutes in the barrel, in effect creating longitudinal stiffening ribs. By calling in some of his model makers to work overtime, Dave completed fabrication of the barrels over a weekend. >Early the next week Mr. Dorchester was back at the Armory with the AR-10s now equippped with the new barrels and anxious to resume the tests. Before resuming tests we examined the design in detail, and checked it out theoretically for strength. Our calculations indicated the design was safe to fire, and the testing was resumed. This time the testing was completed without further serious incidents, but a number of malfunctions were recorded. >We were being urged by the Pentagon to complete our report and send it in, so by the end of February [1957] the report was finished. The ArmaLite engineers freely expressed their feeling that they had been rushed into this test prior to a chance to really work out many of the bugs in the rifle. Apparently Fairchild could see the Army was on the verge of selecting a new rifle and felt they should immediately submit the [AR-10] for Army tests. The report could do little more than record the various troubles we had experienced, and indicate that in its present form the rifle was not satisfactory as a military service rifle.
>>64561627It was a short-sighted decision
This thread is for sharing music that discusses, concerns or invokes the image of any type of weapon, war or battle.Thread theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehukpdse8_wI'm looking for two types of songs specifically, although you are free to post anything that meets the above definition.1. Songs about wars or battles that are 'not' from the era they were recorded in. A popular example would be Iron Maiden's 'The Trooper', which is about the Crimean War, fought 130 years prior to recording (although the year difference does not need to be that great.)I originally started looking for songs about WWI and WWII from the 1950-80s, and noticed that it seemed to be quite difficult to find anything that met that criteria, but I'm interested in anything else you may know of.2. Songs about wars or battles 'in English' in which no English-speaking majority faction was involved.I don't have any examples to share for this one. I think it would be an interesting cultural experience to hear a 'foreign' tale of war set to music that was designed explicitly for an English-speaking audience. I think there are probably some pro-Palestinian songs in this vein, although I'm open to anything and everything.
>>64561113Beautiful song, I'm sure it meant a lot to the guys on the ground.
