Kontakt ERA on towed artillery?Yes, definitely!
And don't say that you didn't want this.
>>62145629>>62145632Ok so tell me, would this work to protect the artillery piece?
what
>>62145637Not really. The jet that would do damage isn't going to get stopped by one Kontact for fuck sake.If it was generic steel I'd think it was viable.
>>62145637I'm more interested in what the crew thinks about the whole gun being turned into one giant Claymore
>>62145629the fuck
>>62145637At this war even STICK is working.
>>62145629
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe...
>>62145635one must imagine the man hours put into this contraption. very anti-soviet like bordering on german autism. A simple drone/camo net would have done the same job, better and cheaper + actually helped disguising the position
>>62145629why, what's the source?
stupid piggers with their ai pictures
>>62145687Another imageboard.I dont know the first source.Sorry.
>>62145715here's one with watermarks
use of ERA on arty tube is approved.
>>62145629whats the point ?Doesn't ERA go off when a high-speed projectile hits it ? AFAIK drones and counter-battery fire are the no.1 arty killer, no ?
>>62145843>>62145629ERA explosions fragmentation will help kill the operators of artillery pieceCall it a new way to kys for rassiyan soldaten
>Sergei big gun is good but not easy to defend>Just put defence rectangle, tanks use it and they are invincible>Da and maybe another set of wheels, with stolen moped engine to push>Even metal all around and safety cube so we are invincible!And on that day two Russian men were celebrated as heroes, The T15-Autisma [NATO Codename:Unassigned] (too busy laughing) was deemed the only tank Russia could viably mass produce, these heroes were given the highest state award, 2 bag of cheeto and were permitted a Dacha in Kiev "If they could get there"
>>621458621 artillery piece > 8 mobiksprotecting the piece is the logical choice
>>62145862>>62145886>implying the ERA will work against drones or what-not >implying there's explosives inside the blocks
>>62145659These things are literally flammable paper boxes that explode how horrifying
>>62145637Not really. You need a few inches of steel behind the ERA brick, for it not to blast you too.
>>62145682>one must imagine the man hours put into this contraption. very anti-soviet like bordering on german autism. A simple drone/camo net would have done the same job, better and cheaper + actually helped disguising the positionyou don't understandwhile you toll on shit like that you are 'useful' and thus are safe from commander meat-waving youso you sit somewhere in the rear and day after day come up with this shit to snake-oil sell to your superiors as r&d and evolution of warfareyour frontline comrades may die but you get to live another day and that's all that matters
>>62146166I guess my grasp of the average mobik mindset isn't quite there yet.
feel like the elbow would fold or give way or get deformed before the armor would give a shit or point away
Isn't this just providing more secondaries?
>>62145629This is probably a dumb question, but could the recoil from the gun firing set off the ERA on top of it?I don't know how sensitive the explosive they use is.
>>62145629>>62145632>>62145635>>62145637>>62145642>>62145649>>62145650>>62145653>>62145659>>62145669>>62145678>>62145682>>62145687>>62145709>>62145715>>62145805>>62145821>>62145843>>62145862>>62145882>>62145886>>62145928>>62145952>>62145995>>62146166>>62146568>>62146713>>62146742>>62147131I've had enough.You can't convince me this war is real anymore. Nothing is real - YOU ARE NOT REAL.
>>62145637No. Heavy Era is a sheet of plastic explosive. It will spall thin sheet steel
>>62145629>>62145632>>62145635PLEASE GOD, SAVE US FROM THESE SAVAGES
If this will make them let down their guards and waste time good idea.TZD>>62147156No anon.Or should I say imaginary anon.YOU are not real!
>>62145629given the state of russian artillery ammo wouldn't it make more sense to put the era on the breach?
>>62145650>what the crew thinks
>>62147264Kontakt 1 generally needs about 50mm of steel thickness minimum to not completely fuck up what's underneath. This setup will likely already permanently fuck up the gun from the explosives inside. If it was on the breech itself then it would almost surely fuck it up bad enough to destroy it
>>62145629FOR·WHAT·PVRPOSE?
>>62145952it's like as flammable as the chairs in Goldeneye
>>62145637Lolno.>>62145650>Implying that ERA actually contains explosive>>62145659Never gets old. Russhit tanks MUST all explode.
>>62147412That looks like Demoman wearing the Crysis guy's helmet.Not a bad look to be h.
>>62145629That's one of the examples of vatniks successfully adapting to the new environment with what they have on hands. Currently, there is not much heavy ammunition to deal with their arty normally, so the guys send FPV bombers when they spot towed artillery hidden in the trees. FPV bombers come to the target at the same time as pre-scheduled 2-3 cluster rounds from the arty team, which makes the gun crew hide and not try to shoot the FPV bomber during its run (as the drop heigh is only 50-100m). The bomber pilots have a very slim area to target. They should hit either directly the barrel or the loading part of the gun with their modified PTAB bombs (3-4 on board). If the bomb gets deflected with such protection, vatniks have a chance to tow away the gun later.
>>62147156>>62147199YOU'RE NOT REAL
>>62145682You're working under a misunderstanding that it's some drone deflector, while it's actually a mobik punishment device.
>>62145629That is actually shockingly elaborate.Most vatniks would have welded that shit right on the barrel.
>>62145629>>62145635>>62145805>even the barrel has a mini-roof
How would this defend them against counter-battery fire?
>>62149421>counter-battery fireat ranges those tubes reach drones are bigger problem
>>62145629>Functional ERA on a functional tank>non functional kontakts on a modern t72 with the armor layers that protect the tank missing >ERA on an BMP-----The great gulf of lethality---->ERA on a MTLB>ERA on a buhanka----Loss of words deep--->ERA on nothingYou are here>Setting up anti personell mines to your own under the name of protection

>>62145637No. Its fucking stupid. The era armor will just add to the explosion They just stacked explosives on top of their artillery piece making it more explosive But you knowRussians are fucking retarded. At first it's amusing then sad then amusing now I'm just annoyed.They are just that fucking stupid and Indians are right there with them closely followed by the Chinese. Its so tiring with "hypersonic" bullshit from them and pseudoscience politics then you see the fucking retards cheer this on They are that fucking stupid. Its not trolling or baiting they are this fucking stupid. Its so stupid you are annoyed. Like the Mankind's mentally challenged retards.
>>62150671also, kek
>>62145821Not by fucking ukies what the fuck is this shit
>>62150671If Hitler was right about anything, it's that Russians are a subhuman Asiatic dysgenic slave race horde.The only ones who invented anything worth a damn had some European blood in them. The rest are like the village retards from Dexter's Lab: Ego Trip.
