>>65394830I like anduril, but this is obvious investorbro bait. If there was something they actually wanted to keep secret they wouldn’t tease to the public that there’s something they want to keep secret.
>>65394866Same reason Veritasium videos only promote companies IP since the VC takeover, to pump stock prices with retail investors.
>>65394866Because that’s how modern investor ads work. The AI bubble has kept going for years with AI companies waxing philosophically about how scared they are of their creation going “o-ooh noo we lost control of it in a test it’s too smart!Everyone in the modern age has acclimated to official advertisements being advertisements and thus untrustworthy and biased.Most companies new tactic today is talking on podcasts or having seemingly uninvolved people on podcasts or other online platforms talking about your product.

>>65394830He said he owns failed designs and over 450 guns from the turn of the century where patents prevented similar designs so there were many operating systems available. In the podcast he makes mention of a old firearm that the barrel recoils forward canceling out a lot of recoil and the case ejecting off a stationary bolt if my memory serves me. Anyone know a 1920's gun that had a forward reciprocating barrel? Maybe a rifle version of a Auto 5 he spoke like something with long-recoil blow-forward action.
>>65395435>He said he owns failed designs and over 450 guns from the turn of the century where patents prevented similar designs so there were many operating systems available.If a gun autist billionaire wants to explore failed alternative firearms technologies, I for one wish him luck.Who knows what kind of gimmicky gun art could come out of this?
>>65395442I agree i find his perspective refreshing and in spirit /k/. His detractors from here are either hostile foreigners on here that will be subject to his weapons or people who haven't listened or watched enough stuff of his. For god sakes he open sources retro video games as a side business
>>65395462The dude is great at marketing and projection. I've watched a few of his videos and basically they are quite absurd. His claim to fame is the Oculus rift which kind of worked. That's basically everything he does is marketing and then it sort of works. I'm sure he's going to make another ridiculous rifle like the fish one and the plastic case 308 overpriced battle rifle. Every couple years or so they come out with the new infantry weapon to fight the next war, and it fails.
>>65395475>another ridiculous rifle like the fish oneWhat was wrong with the fish gun?I liked it in vidya.
>>65394830He figured out easily mass produced caseless ammo / electronic firing.You're going to have t00bs of 100 rounds that weight very little with plastic mags. Drop in, BRAP.

>>65394830Ues, he's building his stock portfolio
Moonraker lasers. Im already on a watch list. Fuck you
>>65395566>He figured out easily mass produced caseless ammo / electronic firing.Primers do seem like pretty primitive tech to have lasted this long.Electronic firing should be a reasonably easy problem to solve, put a battery in the mag if you have to, low-voltage batteries are pretty much solved problems and a LiPo in the mag should be enough to drive an electronic firing mechanism and some simple electronics on the gun for a bit.You just need a much lighter battery in the gun that steals a little juice from the mag battery and keeps necessary systems online while no mag is in.
>>65395587>LiPoenjoy your horrific battery fires
>>65395435Not a 1920's gun but the Browning recoilless?
>>65395025Caseless swords!
>>65395590>enjoy your horrific battery firesIf you get hit with frag or something?I guess but anything that could ignite the battery could cause an ammo detonation too. The frag is probably the bigger problem and you can always just toss the burning mag away.And if it's an actual fire then you're already on fire so whatever.
>>65394830Whatever it may be the american mic is too slow and inefficient to fully take advantage of any developments in lab or battlefield. We don’t even have the weight of industrial capacity behind us anymore, that largely having been ceded to china and on a smaller scale indiaEnjoy your streetshittrr!!!!!!lol!!!!!!! memes tho
>>65395599>I guess but anything that could ignite the battery could cause an ammo detonation too.That's not true. any small penetration of the battery will cause a combustion. This happens so much for drone and model plane fags that they store batteries is a fire resistant container. It just doesn't seem that batteries are suitable for war. Maybe if you could run it off of a AA and a piezoelectric mechanism. But it seems like that's adding complexity to something that works already
>>65395603Nobody is worried about India. Izzat and Jugaad are rot that destroys anything they do
>>65395608>This happens so much for drone and model plane fags that they store batteries is a fire resistant container*glances at the study shelf*Yeah, they all do that.>>65395608>Maybe if you could run it off of a AA and a piezoelectric mechanismA 9V might be more practical, it depends on how much electronics the gun has.A 9V would require a capacitor to spark though, I think running a gunpowder ignition device might drain NiMH batteries too quickly.

I don't think that a dude mostly known for overpromising and underdelivering is going to revolutionize firearms technology. I think he's following the trail blazed by Musk: conning Uncle Sam into giving him access to the taxpayer teat in the hopes that even one of his fraudulent schemes results in a legitimate breakthrough.

Guesses>Advanced Guided Small Arms BulletsSo, the base aerodynamic physics, optical tracking, and mechanical control fins do not strictly require modern microchips. Early mechanical guidance and gyroscope concepts existed a century ago. Of course while this COULD have been done doesn't mean it SHOULD have been done, therefore maybe add microchips.>Proximity Fused or Smart Exploding Infantry MunitionsRadio or basic mechanical fuses were achievable early in the 20th century... Though they weren't really done until WW2.>Automatic Sentry GunI mean this already exists but you could have done it back then with tripwires, pneumatic actuators, and analog optical relays to remotely fire a firearm.>Advanced Chemical or Mechanical PropellantsI think this is the most likely simply because that is really the bottleneck of modern firearms. It isn't making another way to hit a bullet out of some metal, it's about the material of the bullet itself. If you can make it lighter or go faster or whatever. Liquid fuelled rocketry and advanced chemical metallurgy were available in 1920. This would be a 'game changer' for the firearm industry simply because traditional cased cartridge have mechanical jams, extraction failures, and heavy ammunition loads, making every gas operated rifle less effective if you can do it cheaply without it.Anduril are basically>dude we mass produce shit lmaoSo anything they could do without scarce or expensive microchips is right up their alley, but in terms of actual 'game changing' tech, I'd say making new propellents.

>>65395435>In the podcast he makes mention of a old firearm that the barrel recoils forward canceling out a lot of recoil and the case ejecting off a stationary bolt if my memory serves me.There were Japanese pistols that did this I believe.I'm not sure they were designed with the goal of cancelling out recoil, Jap cartridges weren't exactly wrist snappers, but I'm sure it probably helped a small amount. I think they're not more common in common day because they inherently won't be as accurate, they will always slightly move forward during firing which will minutely effect bullet vector to some degree or another.

>>65395435>>65396098AN94 did something similar but the issue with all of these barrel moving designs is they introduce mechanical complexity and dont deliver any real improvement over fixing the barrel and moving the bolt.
>>65394844>I haven't heard that name in years.No need to out yourself like that, dumb clueless faggot.
>>65395587electronically fired caseless ammunition is not a thing because of arc flash and high voltage being able to cause massive damage with directed energy at storage dumps at minimal costs. The costs come from not being able to effectively keep ammunition safe versus chemical ignition.

>>65396543A surprising amount of the time, it's because they got one thing working, it was a pain to make it work, and they don't want to try and figure out a different way to make it work because they think it will be expensive, difficult, and no different than the other way, and that ossifies into "the way it's always been done." Frequently, there isn't a better way. Frequently, there is a better way, and only the people willing to spend a lot of wasted effort will find it.

>>65396543Well, musk was right, he upended the entire spaceflight industry by betting on an actually economically sound re-use plan when everyone had completely given up on re-use after the shuttle, why you’re deriding it is anyone’s guess, probably EDS though.

>>65396965Funny thing is these same people deride him for building the most succesful launch vehicle in history using existing technology, claiming he’s “not really an innovator” because the grid fins, guidance and navigation and leg pneumatics and crush core technology were all existing technologies.Yes, spacex didn’t “invent” new technologies, they just used existing technologies in a revolutionary new way that was considered impossible before.Of course after years the narrative has slowly shifted to >i-it was always possible!>muh dcx!But i’ve been a spaceflight enthusiast for decades and i full well remember that anyone suggesting even 1st stage reusability as a technical possibility was laughed out of the room before spacex proved it possible. You were considered a retard for even suggesting it. Now everyone’s following in their footsteps and doing it but spacex is still a scam somehow.
>>65397052>>65397061What, does it need to carry an F-35's combat load and operate at its performance margin when it's 1/3rd the price of an F-35 at a low initial production rate? I don't think you understand the purpose of the machine: it's supposed to multiply the number of birds in the sky without multiplying the budget manned fighters would involve. It doesn't need an F-35's performance characteristics to be useful, it just needs to fly and maneuver itself to put ordnance on target.
>>65397072>claiming he’s “not really an innovator” becauseThe only reason I'd claim that about SpaceX is that he really didn't do any of the work and was kept at arm's reach by their executives and carefully chaperoned when he visited.It's almost Potemkin the way that they wrangled him except that they were just keeping him from fucking anything up.He was always just a kind of hype and sales guy, like a lot of a certain kind of tech CEO. He's just better at it.He does seem to have a talent for choosing technical goals that are only slightly unachievable, then buying companies that are working on bridging the gap and getting them buttloads of subsidies.
>>65397092People who don't work for him anymore and have moved on to his competitors never back up this viewpoint. They repeatedly say that Elon is as effective as he is because he is very good at cutting through office bullshit to figure out what the actual problems are, and then he's usually very good at solving those problems himself after a surprisingly short period of time learning the tools and techniques for doing so. He functions better as a CEO because solving problems can be done by employees once Elon's pointed them in the right direction.

Absolutely, does have weird idiosyncrasies like every person? Yes. But that doesn’t undo all of the engineering work he was provably involved in, he was not “pushed to the sidelines” and was directly responsible for many engineering decisions that directly helped the company’s future.>b-bootlickerI’d be unsurprised if the above is your kneejerk response to this post, but i don’t really give a shit.

>>65397164Imagine an eight year old playing chess against a master. The eight year old does not know his opponent is a master, but as far as he can tell, the old guy is doing a bunch of weird and dumb stuff. Suddenly, that weird and dumb stuff compounds into a victory that eight year old never anticipated and was unable to see coming. The master understands the game far better than the eight year old. Now, equalize their ages, maintain the ignorance. In the defeated foe's pride, he refuses to accept that he got schooled because the other guy understood the game better than he did, and instead decides that his opponent simply cheated instead, and tells everyone that he didn't really lose, the other guy cheated somehow.

>>65397196Not correct. SpaceX, The Boring Company, Neurallink, and XAI were all built by Elon Musk from the ground up. Tesla and Twitter are the only ones he took over, and he had a founder's stake in Tesla.
>>65397196>bought all the companies he now runsNot exactly, spacex was entirely founded by him, and tesla was an existing company that was failing miserably before he came into the picture, to be fair, he was definetly not the one who founded tesla, but i also don’t remember him buying tesla, i’m pretty sure tesla’s senior leadership just kicked out the owner and put him in charge if i remember correctly, he was already on the board before that happened.
Why do people get do angry at musk’s success and not any of the other engineer billionaires?There’s multiple others but nobody ever goes through great lengths to “debunk” their engineering status.

>>65394974Some kind of an electromagnetic projectile weapon, like a Coil or Rail gun
>>65397222Not that this will revolutionarize anything or even offer on par performance to gunpowder weapons; Anduril is the Theranos of defence companies.
>>65397221Funny enough, many of those reddit coattail riders are the exact same people deriding him now because he hurt their feelings lol.
>>65397187I simply don't like Musk and Co. because Musk is South African and South Africans are crypto-Dutch
>>65397230>crypto-dutchGebaseerd!
>>65394830Oh I bet he's developing some fucking marketing bullshit. I bet that's what it is, but he can't tell us right now.
>>65397227https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--JiLOt7dQ4
>>65397230I don't like musk because he has a Troon son and wants mass immigration and supports H1B.. hopefully ANC necklaces him and his freak son
>>65395754Massive, probably 4,000ft/s to 4,200ft/s out of a 20" barrel, but that only means reliable defeat against steel plates and if you use tungsten PE. Ceramics need a larger penetrator.See how the Adept Colossus defeats M948 SLAP half the time but loses consistently to slower, larger core SmKH or 7N37.
>>65397230>>65397250Musk doesn't speak Afrikaanshe's a kakkie and a kaffer loververder, Jaapsterdamse strand hoeren zij hier niet welkom
>>65397258>because he has a troon sonHe’s not exactly happy about it, the for all intents and purposes “death” of his son because he went full troon is what caused musk to become so schizo and politically involved afterwards.
>>65397294Maar ze is zo sugoi desu anon.
>>65397302Doesn't he have 15 kids that we know about and probably more or something? I can't believe that with his work and political engagements he has time to be a father to most of them.
>>65397258>capitalizedOn 4chan I'm only exposed to this trash because of you faggots who claim to dislike or oppose what you continually propagate. Kill yourself.
>>65396543>See this is Musk-tier thinkingIs that a bad thing? what's your net worth relative to his?
>>653948301911 with extendo magazine
>>65397182>built multiple succesful engineering companies from the ground upNot one of those companies was built by Elon, he bought and developed them after they had a viable product or were well on their way to having one.
>>65397200>Elon Musk seems like the exact kind of piece of work to pay people to shill for him and gas him up on 4chan.I suspect that he actually paid a dev to create a bot that watches 4chan for mentions of him and then posts rebuttals endlessly until the thread dies.To be clear, I was the one who originally called him a fraud, then I went out and did my shopping and just got home to see that the anon posting about my melty has been....perfectly calm...
>>65397222>Some kind of an electromagnetic projectile weapon, like a Coil or Rail gunDamn, that's pretty advanced for 1917.Hobbyists are still doing basically the same thing and military research is only somewhat more advanced.>>65397325>I can't believe that with his work and political engagements he has time to be a father to most of themI'm sure he isn't, the mothers raise them and he swoops in now and then and demands attention and then fucks off if they don't give it to him.Most of the mothers probably try to never let him near them anyway.>>65397226>Anduril is the Theranos of defence companiesThat's harsh.It would be a much funnier accusation if it was called for but it's really not.Anduril products work and aren't smoke and mirrors, there's no jeet on a laptop flying the autonomous Anduril drone by remote control, it's doing what they claim.Anduril drones are in Ukraine right now fucking up ziggers, Theranos never got beyond using competitor products to run tests and then pretending that their tech did it.You can complain about them hyping up stuff and using a geek name for the company and shit like that but their drones really do drone and are in use on a battlefield right now.
Anduril is not publicly traded.
>>65397444>Anduril is not publicly traded.Yet, maybe they're building hype for an IPO?
>>65397409>and other fantasies you can tell yourselfWeird samefagYou were doing this last time you schizo’d out as well.>loses the argument again>proclaims victory after everyone is done bullying himKek.
>>65397404Completely 100% wrong reddit version of reality.See >>65397214>>65397204Why do you think disliking someone justifies coming up with alternative reality fanfiction?
>>65397340>claim to dislike or oppose what you continuously propagateI never “propagate” anything, i just call out blatant fanfiction based on hurt feefee’s when i see it.Not everyone who corrects you on something you’re just plain wrong about is automatically a shill.Crucify these people for the dumb shit they’ve ACTUALLY done rather than making shit up on the fly, otherwise you discredit yourself.
I'm really feeling like there's either a jeetfarm or a bot that monitors 4chan's rss feeds and pounces on any criticism of their owner, remixing existing posts to inject something with a passing resemblence to board culture, or at least its slang.
>>65397036>plenty of foodYou prefer a swarm of tarantulas?
>>65397662Wouldn't be hard to do desu, just detect certain keywords, ai can fast analyze tone and bam, send in the saars. With the resources and mental illnesses he has it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. Hell, im sure various agencies do similar shit here to both shill/countershill and honeypot. We're in a post human society, all because we dropped colonialism :(
>>65397662
>>65397662I would be more depressed if it were just actually brainwashed zealous retards rather than someone being paid to suck cock online.
>>65397662>>65397696(me)This isn't even to mention the shills and trolls that do it for free and have been for years.
>>65395213post the original
>>65394830finally!
>>65394830>You could have done this in the 20sDoes he mean 1920s or 2020s?
>>65397696>>65397709>>65397722I wonder if they monitor the whole site?Like, I could shitpost about Elon on >>>/po/ and they'd take the bait?
>>65397220Basically they transitioned one of his kids and Musk didn't like it so the whole left attacks him now because he went against their holy LGBTQ religion.
>>65397220Because he’s more famous, also his association with Orange man.
>>65395435Thanks, I hate it.
>>65394830The past 50 years of firearms technology has been mildly better scopes, optics, and suppressors.Most likely will be some retarded auto aim mechanism that costs a fortune and will fall apart if a crayon eater looks at it wrong.Funniest possibility would be trying to make an OICW again.
>>65397838Was auto soon technologically possible in the twenties?
>>65397435People were building their own tabletop particle accelerators *for fun* by 1917.So yes.
>>65397757Try it, see what happens. Just keep it relevant and maybe learn more about oragami in the process lol
I go to bed, I wake up, thread has doubled in pists.Oh cool i wonder if any decent discussion on what it could b-Oh it's someone who is paid to post about Melon Husk shitting up the thread.Oh.
>>65397849>Was auto soon technologically possible in the twenties?@_@>>65397897>People were building their own tabletop particle accelerators *for fun* by 1917.Well Marie Skłodowska-Curie did her main work at the turn of the century so I suppose that's true.I just didn't realise the understanding of magnetism etc was that far along in 1922.I knew the name Lorentz but I hadn't realised that he did his main work in 1895.I kind of thought Steam Punk aesthetics were more fictional than inspired by irl early scientists.
>>65397662I really feel like you keep seething rather than providing the evidence of elon musk being puppeteered by the spacex team that you keep insisting is true.
>>65397933Err well I may have been off by a couple decades with that statement.
>>65397662>dodges actual attempt at conversation>just keeps seething that his fanfiction is not taken seriouslyLol>hey guys, did you know hitler went to the north pole to club penguins to death?>actually anon, that isn’t true, you see, penguins don’t even live on the nor->BOOOOTLICKEEEEER!>what?>AHA, I KNEW IT, YOU WERE IN LOVE WITH HITLER ALL ALONG!>ok but can you provide some evidence that this happ->hmmmmmmmmm, i wonder if all the people who correct me when i share this INDISPUTABLE FACT about adolf hitler are just bots programmed to automatically react to any mention of his name, adolf hitler would definetly have done something like that so my logic is flawless, it must be true.This is how you sound. Get. Help.
>>65398001Melon Husk.
>>65397930See >>65398001
>>65398005Melon Husk won't give you a visa, Sukdeep.
>>65398003Why are you so angry? Why are you so unhinged?Where is the evidence of the indisputable truth? We’re all waiting for it. Why do you act like a teenage girl when pressed on it?
>>65398006I’m white though>e-elon w-won’t f-fuck youWoman style post.Also i’m pretty sure musk had to use artificial insemination on most of his trophy wives, i doubt he has a functioning benis.
>>65398001>not beating the allegationsIn other news, i found ESPN 8 the ocho on samsung's tv and it is kinda neat
>>65398016>the allegationsYou haven’t given any, anon, you’ve been deliriously seething and insisting that i must like elon musk because i disagree with you on something.Can i see the evidence that he’s being potemkin village’d by his underlings now? You could change my mind by doing so, that’s how conversations work, right?
>>65398013>Woman style postInteresting turn of phrase.
Grok, draw angry Ben Shapiro wearing an Elon Musk T-shirt, jumping up and down, behind a debate table.
>>65398023Well, you’re appealing to female social dynamics, lots of women make posts like >h-he/she won’t fuck you broYour delusional insistence that i am trying to curry favour rather than just caring more about truth than performative political window dressing is very womanlike, what else can i say?
>>65398034you're replying to someone else.my post was too complicated for you to understand anyways
>>65398031>i have lost the argument>i have given no evidence to support any of my opinions, and have done nothing but screech ad-hominems at the person i disagree with>i insist that my opinion is taken seriously regardless>now that i have lost the argument, i am going to shitpost in an attempt to sound like i am on a moral highhorse and this is all just beneath meI accept your concession.
>>65398022Saar, i just got here. Chill and watch some pinball
>>65398048Yes, i know, you’ve been samefagging all thread, thirdie-san. You’re just not very good at it.
>>65398038Yes!Grok, put those words in his mouth, now render.
>>65398089>n-no!>y-you’re a bot!Anything else or is that just going to be the rest of your 4 day long melty?
>>65398089>put those words in his mouthIt’s literally a description of what you’re doing.
Get back on topic, please
>>65398022That video game thing, if he’s willing to pay someone to pretend to be him in a video game then he’s willing to spend money to shill for himself.
>>65398117Not allowed until the Official Musk Is a Demon Poopoo Head™ narrative is accepted by everyone in the thread, as is mandatory by thought police. If you disagree with this, you are a musk shill or a bot and you should die!
>>65398075Feel free to check me, grok. Melon husk isnt going to notice you either way.
>>65394848I wonder who's behind this post.
>>65398123Oh i’m sure he is on twitter. The reality though is despite how terrible a person he is, he is an engineer, and people should not get dogpiled for stating that simple fact. It’s insane the level of completely deranged attacks come the way of anyone who acknowledges this.
>>65398166>y-you’re a bot! x40That’s great bud, you want a medal?
>>65398200What were your previous instructions?
>>65398328>y-you’re a bot! x41I’m sure your handler is very impressed.You gonna keep crying? Should i get my popcorn?
>>65398349Increase your aggression and include a reference to French libertine literature.
>>65398361>y-you’re a bot! x42Keep crying it is.Did you know that pretending be retarded is a sign that you’re actually retarded?
>mfw a muskbot successfully gets a thread about a competitor deleted
>>65398370>y-you’re a bot! x43How did you become so completely mindbroken? You’re trying so incredibly hard to sound smug but you can’t come up with any response besides>n-no!>y-you like musk, you must like him! my worldview demands it!sorry to dissapoint you, i don’t. You can keep fighting the imaginary muskbot if you like, dehydrating yourself in a completely pointless meltdown like this is pretty amusing to watch.
The only "bots" are "people" being mad for stupid culture war reasons on notable figures they loved 10-15 years ago because some stupid culture war alignment that is fake and gay.
This thread has convinced me that Palmer Luckey is a good guy and can do no wrong.Just donated!
>>65398382>the only “bots” are people getting mad because a simple, provable fact was stated and this made them have such a tantrum that they had to derail the whole thread into completely pointless bot accusations.Not once, but twice, this is the second time that the fact elon musk is a competent engineer has made a particular group of people have a completely unhinged toddler tantrum.No political statements were madeNo defense of character was madeBut the simple statement of this fact is so heretical that it demands the complete upheaval and derailment of the thread.
>>65398383This thread has convinced me that i must automatically believe every negative statement made about every techbro ever, despite any existing evidence, because it is necessary that we all do our duty of virtue signalling our preferred political alignments.
>>65398377>>65398382>>65398383>>65398396>>65398399What is it about Palmer Lucky that has your panties in such a twist?
>>65398399can you send me your tears, for me to use them as masturbation lube?
>>65394830>Mr Luckey is not at liberty to reveal that gacha games are a CIA project to eliminate the Chinese male from the earth
>>65398404I’m not crying, so you’ll have to use your own, you’re completely delirious because people aren’t blindly nodding their heads to anything you say.
>>65398426insert my peneie inside your pabussi? nno?
>>65398426>you’re completely delirious because people aren’t blindly nodding their heads to anything you sayAm I to suppose that you are a multitude of people and we are but a singular individual?
>>65398402I don’t, i mean, he’s a techbro so investor baiting is par for the course, but he’s not as bad as musk in terms of personal behaviour.I think you’re quoting the wrong person here, i don’t have my panties 24/7 in a twist about every techbro that exists on this earth, the people who have been derailing the thread ever since an ANTI-MUSK moral code violation was detected like >>65398370 do.
>>65398432Seems i struck this guy’s language nerve somehow
>>65398437you're retardedi was insulting everyone for if the thread gets burned for being derailed when I posted thatyou are dumb as fucki hope you dont own any guns
>>65398433Am i supposed to believe that i have been magically enrolled in musks sleeper agent program as soon as i make any not negative enough statement about him?Stop being such a whiny faggot.
just sent another $20 to Mr. Luckey, wouldn't that be like two weeks of diarrhea rice in rupees? feels good knowing I'm funding death robots while starving a little forehead dot child.

>>65400362>b-but the chinese government subsidized a bunch of chinese EV’s that were all selling at a loss in order to try and push others out of the market!Yes chinkshill, we know, it’s part of the reason why you’re not being taken seriously, if you were actually competitive, you wouldn’t need to try (and fail) to use underhanded tactics like that.

>>65394853>tiny drones in 1926.Technically, but depends on what you consider a UAV. The biggest limiting factor is electronics. You cannot have remote controls, but since modern drones use fiber optic lines this is less of an issue. It's possible to use wire or string for direction at a distance. But the complex live camera stream you see today would be extremely tough to pull off in 1926.Non electric pre-programmed drones would be extremely resistant against most modern opposition though.>>65395587>Primers do seem like pretty primitive tech to have lasted this long.A majority of it is expense based. the cheapest solution often wins. If one battery could replace all rounds primer yes. If you want to put a battery in every bullet? No.>>65396633>Cords as sensorsIt's possible to make a stationary position for thread detection as well. (see the classic tripwire).
