So hear me out:We all know that robo dogs suck quite a lot, so they're not really a great option for front line transport of goods, so the alternative in Ukraine has been fucking donkeys.But that comes with the problem that they still need to be led by a person, in order to know where they need to go.So what if we developed a little machine that is strapped on the back of the donkey, which pinches it to go where we need it to go, so it could deliver the shit autonomously?

1: America2. Japan3. Russia4: China5: India6: Taiwan7: South Korea8: France9: Indonesia10: TurkeySome may question why Russia is so high, that's because of submarines. Russian submarines are still the best in the world, 2nd only to America. And they have a lot of them. Japan's submarine force is also extremely good despite being conventional and combined with their F-35 fleet, gives them the 2nd spot. China despite her large surface fleet, has a dogshit and small submarine fleet, so they are in 4th place. India has a rapidly growing navy, some of the best anti-ship hypersonics missiles in the world and a competent carrier air wing, which allows them to squeeze into the 5th spot. At the rate at which the Indian navy is growing, expect them to jump to the 4th or 3rd spot within a handful of years.
>>64289157
>>64291223They always push out the most important countries to cram India on their lists
>>64291241I'd propose kicking the UK off the list too, since Japan is more deserving of a spot, and most if not all of those badges are foreign-owned these days anywayt. bong
>>64289781Having the capacity to put steel in the water doesn't make a competent navy. China's PLAN is worse than Russia's navy and if it came down to it Russia would lose several surface combatants a week. China's mine laying and resupply ships are primitive.
>>64291442>China's PLAN is worse than Russia's navyITT, ziggers actually believe this. Come back once you're in the carrier game and your boats aren't in danger of sinking themselves anymore, Vanya.>mine layingLMAO, PLAN minelaying capacity is downright titanic and their mines are way more modern than anything russian.
Congratulations /k/, you're not in Kansas anymore. You've just been assigned to take part in a Special Military Operation to liberate the Land of Oz from the oppression of the Wicked Witch of the West and rescue Judy Garland before the drugs and alcohol ruin her. Your enemy includes, but is not limited to, her army of flying monkeys and green-skinned not-witch goons. The Witches of the North and South and Oz won't be helping you, but you can recruit the Munchkins as indigenous allies.You may bring any infantry kit from any era you want, from the Spartans of 300 to the Spartans of Halo, but no form of motorized or wheeled transport. Horses may be permitted depending on the kit.What are you bringing?

this shit's never gonna be cheap again right
>>64291160>>64291176Gold also tripled. The secret is that gold is also a scam, and it's currently facing the same rampant speculation as buttcoins. Protip: if you "invest in precious metals" and you don't have them stored either on your property or in a private box in a bank vault that you have the only key for, then what you're doing is exactly the same as investing in stocks or buttcoins. Even if you do have personal control over your wealth, if you're invested in materials like gold that people treat just like stocks, you're in for a crash along with the stock market. Silver and copper are a bit better, but honestly you're better off investing in things people will want after a collapse, like fuel/electricity, alcohol, and ammunition.
>>64291213Gold is barely up 2x from that date meanwhile BTC is up 5x.

What does /k/ use for ear protection when shooting?Do you use the fancy, electronic muffs that amplify quieter sounds while blocking out the louder ones?Do you use some kind of in-ear foam thing?Or do you just use whatever the range gives you and not think about it?I have a big head and big ears, so 9/10 times the ear muffs I can grab at the range are too small for my head or sit right on my ears, which hurts.I used to shoot once in a blue moon but recently I've started shooting a lot more and I figure it might be time to put some more thought into not being comfortable.Pardon the google image
i like. i also find the ability to hear things around you (including voices) whilst having ear pro on very useful.
I just use a passive earpro, a peltor optime 3 (snr 35db).I got it for like 40€. I use it also for work at home.
>>64291195I like that you can add gel cups and semi crappy walkies on to these, I have a box that’s like 4/6 Walkers because my friends are dumbasses and always forget to bring them, and it’s useful for introducing people to sporting clays and skeet.
Old British army ear defenders and when I need to double up, those orange plugs. I've been looking for some cheap active ear pro, but are they any good? Like those under 100€ models.
>>64290534Not him but I always wear ear plugs under the headphones, and also there is the concussion to consider.I had the sensation last time I went to the range even though I too was a good boy and it was an outdoor range- but I think it might've had something to do with the guy next to me firing fucking .500 magnum out of his carbine length lever gat.
>THE ONE WITH THE RIFLE SHOOTS
>>64288485ok retard
>>64266332heh took me a minute to get the joke
>>64288485its accurately based on real life>t. had relative who was in one of the german legions on the east fronteven after seeing the vatnik plague in live action, recorded on cameras that are everywhere the cope still goes on. Now its morphed into>vatnik union was totally different then modern vatnikstan!
>>64269189With them all bunched up like that, one burst from fast rifle would take them all out.
>>64288485>so they sent the troops they could issue rifles over the river and had the rest camp until enough rifles could be shipped over to equip them.What? That doesn't fit into the All Russians Are Retards narrative! This must be vatnik trickery! You're a Putin apologist aren't you!? Vatnik VATNIK!!1
As a thirdie country how do you militarily beat a technologically superior invader having weaponry decades or even centuries above your own arsenal but weird rules of war?Also /mk/ I guess.
>>64289329>dont you dare insult a military on the military board>>64289347nice fanfiction, you're still a mizrahi arab btw
>>64290363having to genocide a spec of dust on the map to conquer it is not the sign of a competent or well organized military lol. we didn't have to genocide okinawa and the soviets didnt have to genocide berlin to conquer it, they just werent fucking retarded and knew how to fight a war while the israelis dont.
>>64289329He's an unironic mudslime immigrant from the middle east since he always spergs out about "dishonoring islam" this "disrespecting the holy book" that whenever someone posts picrel.
>>64291455>best propaganda Israel can produce are basedjaks and literal hospital graffitipathetic.
>>64291560All me. Btw this you?
After what happened with that train stabbing I want to carry a pistol for self defense. I dont care how it looks I just want something thats the most effective for the lowest price. I thought about getting a used glock cus at first I heard it was efficient but then I found out about the amount of misfirings that can happen with them. Whats a good option for a used pistol? I plan to try and get a concealed carry permit too otherwise I would just get something thats bigger just to intimidate people off from trying to mess with me.
>>64287463Go to bed, Grandma
>>64285490This is realistically probably the best recommendation in the thread, though for most people a glawk or m&p or whatever will all be fine
Taurus 605 stainless, you're poor, and likely won't need more. Taurus Revolvers are good enough for you to spend decent money on ammo to practice, and get a good waistband and pocket holster(stickies are 30 bucks). It's heavy enough to not hurt, the grips are 2 1/2 fingers so it fits in the pocket nicely and faggots who are concerned about the hammer haven't learned to just cover it with their thumb before drawing. It's also like 350 bucks new. You won't miss it when the cops inevitably confiscate it as 'evidence' after you defend yourself.
In the case of the train incident, it was more that she was at the wrong place than anything else. I've been to areas with tons of feral apes around, but I always had my surroundings in check, and I always drove their in my own car. Public transportation, as you can imagine, is not the safest with the amount of homeless/schizo's that climb aboard. Even semi-normal looking people can freak out for no reason, ex. that one bus incident where a guy started to harass a couple of fem muzzies, and a zoomie stood up to him only to get stabbed.My recommendation is buy something that you will actually carry and not leave on the occasion that its too uncomfortable for a trip.

New 5 ton drone with 2,000 Km of range
>>64281762it cannot be shot out from a torpedo tube, of course its not a torpedo
>>64281841Aight then, torpedoes are launched from another vessel, drones are launched standalone. Happy?
>>64290324>checkmate atheists
>>64291400Turns out torpedoes were drones all along.
>>64281934it goes in tighter but ends up looser than a vagina as you fuck it so honestly this is just cope for the fact that russians get raped until they like it
Do compound helicopters make sense when tilt-rotors exist?
>>64287604The point of adding wings to a helicopter is to unload the main rotor as forward speed increases, and the more the rotor is unloaded the less lift differential there can be.Really the main difference between compund helicopter and tilt rotor is that the first example is able to autorotate in case of engine failure, but the tradeoff is that the main rotor ends up producing nothing but drag at high speeds.
>>64288852I mean, it also still produces lift, which is nice
Fucking radar missiles are so fucking annoying I swear to god.
>>64291359If the enemy has fighters up, either terrain mask for protection/stealth, or fly at a diagonal to where you think missiles are coming from. I find its also good to stay under 1000kph so you can turn at a higher rate. I only go supersonic when I need to lob missiles over 40km away
>>64283871>>64287645>mfw I get to look at insurgents and rocks
They sure know how to piss a man off
>>64291306Glock 20 doe
>>64291314>no chamber support>aftermarket match barrels blow up with real 10mmhope you like having no hands retard
>>64291320Debunked
>>64291329>All 10mm shills can do is lie
>>64291306Tbh there's no reason to get 10mm since if you're in bear country you can open carry a shotgun without retards freaking out
