Are they using bird shot?
>>64402111If you don't know how to lead you'll always be shoot where the drone was instead of where it is. Skeet shooting is actually a useful training aid for this
>shitty turkish shotgun with irons that were probably never zeroed>soldier probably never got any practice shooting shotguns and doesn't know how to lead targets>bird shot bouncing off the plastic/aluminum housing of the drone
>>64402116Its coming towards him he shouldn't have to lead it that much.
>Just use the shotgun bro
Would a sawed off barrel give a greater spread?
>>64402137No.
>>64402111Go play a modern fps game and try to hit something flying in a non-linear fashion with a gun, it's hard as fuck. Now add IRL stress factors (you probably die if you miss), the weight and recoil of the gun, a target 1/100th the size, and the surprise factor (war is 99% waiting 1% violence.)
Okay what about a shotgun but a machine gun.
TBF I'd be shitting bricks in that situation too. >>64402127 Is probably right ,but imagine the relief when it targeted the vehicle. I've almost died before but I never saw it coming like he did.
If he is using bird shot why isn't it shredding the branches in the background?
>>64402111I understand you need to push guys to the front, but if you're gonna issue shotguns you gotta teach them about spread pattern, point of aim vs pattern center and target lead. I really think a day shooting trap and skeet would unironically be a good primer for shotgun troops.>vid semi related
>>64402193>issue shotgunsImplying that these guys aren't just buying whatever shotguns they can on their own. Every video seems to feature a different model of shotgun. I doubt there is much of an organized procurement process, let alone training.
My bigger question is, do these drones always carry a letter to drop in surrendering soldiers, instructing them what to do?If not, what's the percentage of these 2-option drones that can either drop a bomb or a letter?
>>64402191Do you really think that would be obviously visible in this low bitrate video that has probably been posted, stolen, and reposted again a number of times and again compressed into a 4chan friendly webm?
>>64402193The shotgun isn't actually there to stop the drone, it's mainly there to improve morale by making the soldiers think that they have a chance of stopping the drone.
>>64402215I haven’t seen any videos of soldiers surrendering in a while
>>64402218What load do you think he is shooting?
>>64402230I dunno but imma be shootin' some FAT LOADS later tonight hehehe
What about bolo rounds.
>>64402154You ban evading again you repulsive serbian interracial pornography fetishist?
>>64402260>>64402268You need more pellets to create a denser cloud to have a better chance of hitting the drone.https://youtu.be/j8x9Sd9hNgw
Unironically, why not just give troopers a 4 meter long telescopic umbrella. All you have to do is click a button towards the drone and it'll explode much further away from you than you'd like. Shit, even an ordinary rake would be preferable to nothing at all.
>>64402111Clearly you are a no gunz retardSome birdshot does NOT cycle on semi autos. When it comes to popt-- I mean semi auto shotguns, reliability is more important than effectiveness>>64402127>shitty turkishindeed!
What about shooting a big wad of fishing line with a few weights crimped on?
>>64402306Net rounds are a thing already.
>>64402382yeah and how many of those can they make a day?
>>64402382How far do those go?
>>64402397Not very. The net is very high drag, even worse than birdshot.
What about a double barrel and an over under.
>>64402382This but XXL and out of a 25 or 40mm launcher. It'd be single shot but I think the coverage would more than make up for that
>>64402412Fun for Trap and Skeet, not effective for combat. If a drone is on a kill approach you want more lead in the air at a faster rate. Basically WW2 anti air gunnery but its a bunch of poor fucking infantry shooting Turkshit shotguns into the sky.
hear me out
Hitting a moving target under stress is difficult.
>>64402306>>64402382If they're just trying to bridge the connection to get a destination why hasn't chaff been used?
>>64402218>stolenretard
>>64402730>trying to bridge the connection to get a destinationHas anyone really been far even as decided?
>>64402544>Ukies just start skimming drones at ground level>anti-drone teams become cannister round field gunsI give it a week before the Ukrainians start trying to line up the anti-drone guns with other Russian positions for manoeuvre friendly-fire kills.
>>64402137Typically a shorter barrel gives greater spread but you have to check the spread pattern of a specific gun/barrel. None of you have ever even checked your spread patterns because you're notraining and no I won't spoonfeed such a trooned board anymore.
bro is shooting left
>>64402412Do you mean a Vierling?
>>64402544>You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger darling
>>64403032>70-150 m of range for Ph = 0.50 against a normal FPVNo.
>>64402382a big wad of fine birdshot does the exact same thing fucker
>>64402175A belt-fed auto shotgun.
>>64403032That shit did fuckall at the battle of Yonkers
>>64402111Nigga needs a dot
>>64402116>useful training aid for thisIf you are a homosexual. If not, pic rel.
>>64402412>What about a double barrel and an over under.An over and under IS a double barrel, retard.
>>64402111Birdshot wouldn't cut it.Need 00 buck to take it down.
>>64403400You just need th bend or break the flimsy little props and it flies out of control.
>>64403473Birdshot isn't even enough to go through an aluminum can of Monster™. Drones are not as flimsy as they look, leave the birdshot for the birds.
>>64402111only a direct hit to one of the rotors would do anything to slow it down
>>64403781They're also flexible, and drone can still maintain a semblance of flight with just 3 out of 4 rotors.
>>64403765A prop spinning at 13000 rpm getting bent would cause a major problem.
>>64402241Where did you find this picture? I dont remember any of these characters smiling once in the whole series.
>>64403842they shrug it off they're designed to survive impacts
>>64402116Skeet would be useless due to the arrangement. Trap shooting is more accurate to the needed skills (though still reversed).
>>64403937With AI nothing you ever see online can be trusted anymore
>>64403241unironically memorable, we should bring back porn in education
>>64402116You can always find where to shoot by calculating where the drone isn't
>>64403937It's a joke
>>64403937Welcome to the post-truth internet
>>64402111They have so many FPV drones, why don't they just train soldiers for a few days on unarmed FPVs flying at them from different angles? Also people here hate to hear it but birdshot is not good enough for drones fyi. FPVs are not living and are way harder to deflect than a bird, who has spent millions of years optimizing being lightweight and fluffy as shit. This soldier was very lucky that this drone was extremely slow and lethargic (fiber optic???)
What happened to the ziggers literally loading 3-4 pellets of birdshot into 5.45x39s and being really proud about it
>>64402111This thread has so many random dumb replies there's probably an actual zigger looking for advice instead of the usual braindead noguns posting shit for the sake of posting.
>>64403786That video killed me
>>64402111Actually, I think the drone was hit around 0:02. See how to stops maneuvering and just slowly drifts into the car?
>>64403842>A prop spinning at 13000 rpmthe logic behind the controllers operates much faster. A quick look on amazon shows a ~50 dolliarido flight-controller operates at 168 Mhz. That's 168 MILLION TIMES A SECOND that it has an opportunity to respond and adjust. if you want to be fancy and spend 168 shekels on an even faster FCS you get 5.8 gHz which is 5.8 billion times a second.Now the drone PIID loop has a mite of overhead so not all clock cycles are free to respond to a propeller woopsie the moment it happens, but there are a lot of cycles in the newer quadcopters.
>>64402111I don't know if you have ever tried to shoot trap with a shotgun that has AR style sights, such as those this Turkish bullpup is using. It is ass. Absolutely horrible. Those sights are not meant for shotguns, and are only used because they make it look more "tactical", whereas a simple bead would have worked much better. They are far too constricting and make it nearly impossible to actually lead the target. A red dot could make that shotgun work, but really if they just made a shotgun a shotgun instead of trying to dress it up as a rifle it would have been much better suited for the task.>>64402127Zeroed or not, they are the wrong type of sights altogether. Even ghost rings are sub optimal for a flying target.>>64402137Spread yes, but that's actually not what is needed in that situation. You actually want a tight spread so that you can engage the drone before it gets closer.Ask bird hunters, they always want the tightest chokes possible so they can shoot the duck from the other side of the lake. It gets ridiculous how much they will pay for a custom choke.>>64402175Recoil would shift you off target after the first or second shot. Wouldn't be useful for drones, but would absolutely wreck shit in close combat until you run out of ammunition which wouldn't take long.>>64402222Kek, that's probably more true than not. They got them as aid from Turkey. Probably junk production overruns that not even dogshit mystery meat importers here in the US would touch. Better to throw them as aid to Ukraine with a fluffed up press conference than to dump them in a landfill. Turns out some poor sap had to actually use one and surprise surprise it isn't very effective although to the Turk's credit it is at least shooting and cycling.
>>64402306>>64402382These work well but are expensive and impractical
>>64404269Well you can alway get your buddy and have him lob those thingys directly at you.And the preceed to shoot them, aiming in his general direction.Well the setup needs some work, but I can see it.
>>64404917You could do defensive skeet shooting. Like regular skeet only you have an array of clay throwers set up to throw the clays at your position. If you fail to hit, you get b0nk.I'd try it. I'd probably catch a clay to my teeth, but it sounds fun up until that point.
>>64404683>Even ghost rings are sub optimal for a flying target.Sig has an interesting option on some of their pistol RDS, you can turn the dot off and only have a larger ring.I could see that being potentially useful, but really I think the best option is to just have whoever is using the shotgun use a bead and just shoot an absolute fuckton of shot through the gun to train.I've been shooting trap with my father and uncles since I was ~7.All of them are competitive, and one was actually Olympic level in the 80s.We used to have monthly competitions among our family. Everyone reloads in their basements. I've legit probably run 100,000 shells through shotguns in my life.When I started shooting with my friends, I had a really, really hard time using their guns, because most of them had outfitted actual front and rear sights to the gun, and I realized I actually don't even use the bead at all when I shoot, it's just intuitive reflex snap shooting.I align my head and shoulder with the barrel and that's it.It probably isn't realistic to expect that to be viable with general infantry, but I think it's not completely unreasonable to have a designated "anti drone gunner" in a unit now, with how common drones are going to be going forward.
What if we use Trounds?
>>64402111I'm guess its overchoked and he's missing partly because of the horrible sights
>>64407091Anon's the only one here asking the real questions.
>>64402730chaff would slow to a halt extremely quickly. I doubt it'd go 10 yards.
>>64403786Infantry will never go away lmao
>>64403937>>64404380>>64404295this wasnt even a.i, there was just a tool for a while that would turn everything into smiles. now if course its just a.i, but it really wasnt that long ago
>>64402730Great way to give everyone on your side mesothelioma.
You fellas think that giving the Ukrainians small machine pistols/carbines with bolts lighter than regular to reliably cycle snake shot would be a good option?Make the barrels short and smooth bore also, I think it would be a better solution compared to a full length shotgun.Surley 16-40 rounds of snake shot at 600-1200 rounds per minute and 30 shot per load would be effective.I know snake shot is weak but you only need to disable the drones rotors.
>>64403786>stick still outdoes thousands of years of military evolutionI give up. I'm going outside to add the best stick I can find to my armory.
>>64411089Sticks getting added to the armory? Who's gonna do PMS checks on the stick?
>>64410124Why do you think snake shot would disable drone rotors?
>>64410124Shooting snake shot at a drone would be the equivalent of throwing pocket sand at it. By the time its close enough for the little lead spheres to start chipping the plastic, you would be well within the drones kill radius.
>>64403241what does it say?
>>64414668>>64414668>lots of leading ahead>less leading ahead>even less>direct aim!>The hunter always finds the nicest>the position, where the withholding (leading) disappearsMaybe I'm misunderstanding the pun but my knowledge of German boomer humor is really terrible
>>64414732The bottom text says "The position the hunter finds prettiest is the one where he doesn't lead [his aim]."It means that the hunter (gunman) wants to directly look (aim) at the target when it is prettiest (coming head-on towards him)There's no pun it's a rhyme to better remember it
>>64403786It really do be like dat.
