ftfy. The entire rest of the show is fine, it's just the scenes with the comedic fat guy that are bad. A completely failed attempt at making another Ide/Horii

Apart from that though, the show is good even early on, for example I really liked episode 8, which was about fighting a monster inside someone's dreams. Obviously Ultra has done episodes like that before but they knock it out of the park every single time, I just love all the imagery in those type of epsiodes. Shit like that is what I feel like new gen is missing

I appreciate you looking deeper into the topic but "the survivability onion" apply differently depending on technology and context.
You really can't compare space warfare to any other form of warfare, we can't even predict ground warfare in 100y.
For all I know we won't have space-warship because war will be only won by smuggled nano-assembler-AI.

Let's start with the most important:
>a ship that can do 10g gets places faster than one that can do 1G. But I think we're getting into torchship territory
Acceleration =/= maximum (relative) speed =/= maximum range (deltaV)
You can be capable of 20G of acceleration and not have enough dV to reach the moon.
Or you can travel to Mars faster with a slow 0.1G brachistochrone acceleration than with a ship doing two 10G hohmann transfer burns (for silly reason).
To get high-acceleration you typically have to sacrifice efficiency (range) and your warship is supposed to eventually get home, so more than half of its mass will be return fuel (if we introduce tankers they become targets for space-Ukrainian)

So I'll be straight: even a minimal 10G fighter-small-warship is off my book, you'll need to start evading equally-engined-missile from so far you'll still be at home.
Aside, ships in "The Expanse" break physics a LOT.

>>23675184
>deltaV, the Expanse
That's why I said we're getting into torchship territory, any serious travel at those accelerations needs magical infinite fuel rockets. But then we start running into the issue of every ship becoming a planet-buster....
>ECM is impossible
I call bullshit on that. All guidance and targeting systems can be fooled, there's no magical "just filter out the countermeasures lol" solution, it's in the same magical realm as infinite fuel
>hardkill
Well yeah, that's hwy it's only one layer of the onion. It's not that every single layers reduces 100% of a threat, it's that they all compound on each other to make your ship survivable. If 100 missiles are fired at you, and decoys get 50, your PD has to do half the work. Then PD gets 40 missiles, suddenly you only need to dodge 10. You're still dead most likely, but you get my idea. Chances of evading 10 missiles are a lot better than evading 100

>That's why I said we're getting into torchship territory
I don't think you get the scope and I think you grossly overestimate ECM/decoy.
Missiles would also be torchship-fast, your trajectory would still be very predictable (see the link I gave about moment of inertia).

Let's take the arbitrary case about surviving 100 (sub-munition) with "10" being the maximum number you can actually hope to escape with evasion.
What if your "decoys" turn out to only bait 30? (or zero IMO)
What if the PD you'd need to destroy 40 is so heavy it ruins your mobility?
What if the PD can only destroy 20?
Plus, given the proportions you gave, Pareto say to maximize the efficiency of what protect the most.

I hope you do recognize that at some point maths can say "don't bother".

>I call bullshit on that.
There's no magical "All guidance and targeting systems can be fooled" magical realm either.

You're thinking in absolutes. Just because something isn't guaranteed to work 100% of the time doesn't mean it's not worth doing. Chaff doesn't fool missiles 100% of the time on fighter jets either but standard procedure is to spam chaff anyways. They're not doing it for the pretty lights, they do it because it bumps up your survival odds.

>magical all-aspect missiles with perfect anti-chaff systems and an integrated supercomputer that can perform flight calculations more complex than the target itself while also carrying an entire ISS's worth of science equipment
Yeah ok.

Afraid there's nothing absolute about it, it's bog-standard expectation when it comes to future technologies.
I don't want to be rude but you are just extrapolating from cold-war areal warfare when wild-weasel maneuvers were still a workable SEAD method.

Nowadays even small manpad missiles are built with the anti-flare method I tried to explain to you.
"The newest generation of the FIM-92 Stinger uses a dual IR and UV seeker head, which allows for a redundant tracking solution, effectively negating the effectiveness of modern decoy flares (according to the U.S. Department of Defense)."
And look at how you believe plotting a trajectory is hard, when it's easier than in the atmosphere because there's no aerodynamic components, it's all ballistic.

>magical all-aspect warship with integrated super-PD systems that can shoot down dozens of anti-warship missiles while dodging at 10G, dropping perfect decoys indistinguishable from a nuclear torchship at full acceleration
Yeah ok.

In GBF it doesn't really seem to be the case as every series has had characters who are unfamiliar with Gundam as a whole, let alone Gunpla.
Some series are like that, where the only real reason it seems like the hobby is ubiquitous is because it focuses on the people who are into said hobby. Of course, they usually do make the hobby way bigger than it is IRL but many series acknowledge that it's not surprising if someone has zero knowledge of it.
You could even see that was the case with Yugioh until Kaiba took over the world and reshaped it in his autistic image.
>>23674196
That may be true but it's not like IRL you have people who will challenge you on the street for a pickup game of basketball over your parking spot at CostCo.

>What is Ma.K?
Originally called SF3D, Maschinen Krieger came into existence in the 1980's, with Kow Yokoyama credited as being it's primary creator. SF3D was more or less a collective effort with Hobby Japan and kitbashers, who made mechanical monstosoties from various model ranges and custom sculpts. Everything from Macross, Dorvack, Gundam, Star Wars, and Tamiya military models were mashed together and gave birth to one of a kind mechs. Models of these kitbashes and sculpt were made and sold, with a story revolving around this world coming out after the fact. It's a niche range of militant mechs that has slowly gained attention over time. If you like Gundam and have a secret love affair with military vehicles give Ma.K a try!
