Did the Waffen SS have good combat performance in the war, or did they suck?
>>59729397Kinda mediocre, actually. The SS were political troops chosen for loyalty and fanaticism rather than competence and skill. This tended to make the Waffen SS aggressive but unskilled, often attacking difficult targets without sufficient forces or a realistic plan.
>>59729397I think generally Fallschrimjagers were considered more dangerous and elite than the SS by the average allied grunt.
>>59729566It's the link at the bottom. Usually you'd have to break it up like like doi(.)org for it to work (in the sense that anyone can just copy it and remove the brackets).
>>59729719i tried it. wasn't that. i don't normally have problems with doi links
>>59729420>lacking fear of deathcringe propaganda
Let's say from both the Classic ww2 era Long Lance and modern torpedoes...both scenarios
>>59718924fr? Why the fuck would they throw away a good aircraft like that? Shit you could just sell those to boomers to recoup some money at least.
>>59724172Not sure if you're joking or not, because this basically exact same situation happened with the Sammy B Robert's in the 80s and they did that and it worked.

>>59729701Thanks, didn't read about that updateThe information about the punctured flight deck is interesting too>>59729752A product of its time, I think

>>59729717on that schizo grindset I see.
>>59729682>>59729726so much animosity for no reason
>>59729700>fighting as an individual>deaded in 0.2 secondsI’m thankful to be smart enough to have a couple of really nice rifles but also to have the beaters that I built for fun with shit I got on sale. I couldn’t imagine having “this or that” mindset like some tards do
>>59729758arggers thing life is call of duty tarkov and they will be running around and looting bodies solo like their hecking vidyagaems
>>59729765I mean you should be a capable individual to help increase capability of your unit as a whole. Especially if you’re the “gun guy” of your group it’s probably good to have a few specialized rifle so you can fill whatever role needed.

unironically how did the russians pack so much shrapnel into a bomb?
>>59729607Half the population of Ukraine was Donbas childrenkeyword: was
Hey, I’m just not going to support the Ukraine. LOL!
>>59729654actual ai content xd
>>59727132>>59727689Its exploded at like 15 meters height. Still produced mushroom cloud with soil. 155mm HE rounds at 5 meters airburst make just smoke puffshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8eLH3VbJOQIts 3000kg if not more.(btw video is cut, no ammunition is visible inflight, first frame of action is already explosion)
>>59727109Russians started adding ball bearings to their FAB series of gravity bombs. Probably 5mm and 12mm steel IIRC.
Canardbros... is our time over?
>>59727265>FCASCoalition from hell. Spain brings nothing while France and Germany are impossible to work with. Even MGCS is looking doubtful which is a much simpler project. Expecting France to ditch Germany and Spain sooner or later and seek other partners (who though?).>MIG-41Lol, lmao even. Very best case scenario they build a few prototypes, lie about their performance, and are never seen again, whilst pajeets in youtube comment sections praise the bogus performance numbers for decades to come.>NGADThis will be the definitive 6th gen fighter by which everything else is measured. Unlikely to be exported though. Maybe a gibbed version will make it's way to export 20 years after it enters service. >GCAPOn paper they have everything they need to succeed and it seems to be proceeding well so far. It's the only non-American project I'm optimistic about and if successful will likely become the primary export plane of the generation. >J-28Hugely sceptical but I won't dismiss it. There's too many question marks around Chinese aircraft for me to be certain. At least they'll produce a lot of them? >F/A-XXThe radio silence on the project makes me think it's been canned but maybe I've just missed something. Mainly I don't trust boeing kek.
>>59729730Boeing is finished, have you seen their commercial plane sales?
>>59727275The main idea behind all these 6th gen aircraft is networking and unmanned wingmen drones. It is a system made up of smaller individual systems.
>>59728005And knocked it the fuck out with the B-21. NG is fine. If Boeing even has enough design engineers left in the states to work on this I would be legitimately surprised.
>>59729730>Mainly I don't trust boeing kek>>59729749Boeing hasn't won or anything, so not sure why you're worried before they've even been selected> the Navy announced Aug. 26 that Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman are in the running for the airframe, while GE Aerospace and Pratt & Whitney are competing for the engine.> In July, the White House connected the F/A-XX program with a special access program in the budget called Link Plumeria. This classified program is the Pentagon’s fourth-largest research and development program, with $11.5 billion for fiscal 2023-27 included in the Defense Department’s recent budget request.
Would you?
>>59729527Kick the fucking bucket loser, that’s a lot fucking cope The FBI told social media companies to censor the NY Post’s Hunter Biden Laptop story. Intelligence officials said it was Russian disinformation. They lied. They lied to the benefit of their preferred candidate. I disagree with a lot of what Trump has done and failed to do. But this cannot fucking stand you fucking cock sucker. Do you understand what fucking happened?
>>59723472You are like little baby
>>59729708>Do you understand what fucking happened? A bunch of fanatics stormed the capitol because their favorite politician lost. Somewhere along that line some people thought they would start an insurrection. Somewhere in-between that a cop/guard is killed by a mob of the politically retarded and the American Flag is taken down for a politicians flag.
>>59729729Now that is beautiful
>>59727133I miss chowder
I like Garand Thumb a lot but hes kinda fallen off lately. i found this new guy whos kinda fun to watch but not as cool. https://youtube.com/shorts/stSgUcEgHDw?si=ltBr272kj7JKSHMk
>>59713992The Gear general on /fit/Mike is recovering from a chronic neck and trap injury but has mysteriously huge delts and bi’s. That poster is alleging GT is on the juice.
>>59729632Well, believe what you want anon but that's not the case this time
>>59729725I'm sorry you fapped to a man, bro. Happens to the best of us.
>>59709295I like Administrative Results, he's a cool guy
>>59729734To you maybe miss discord groomer

>>59729447>Piss (dehydrated edition)The further development made me switch out a chemical which ended up in a brown color, I wish it would still look as your version ;_; But I take the brown pill to get that crazy >100% performance improvment,lol. Pic related another day of rain to fuck up out test sample, so heavy our sunshade ropes got torn from wind KEK. In the background you see DRI, industrial subformulation (diluted DRI) and that brown rust spot on the left is our friend Eezox. Stopped counting what the plate in the front did, maybe its the 10th time getting rained
>>59729483Isn't that quite literally just going back to .30 Luger?That said, I kinda wish that had stayed around. It would be pretty interesting to see what some .30 Luger +Ps could do.
>>59729508Mind you none of the guns that I applied this to have rusted but I also haven't gotten them that wet yet. I'll probably start applying this to more going forward though since I think I will be shooting in the rain a lot more.
>>59729563Your version might not be as strong as the release version but its 100% doing the job. Last week I talked to a fluid scientist about oversea performance again salt water and he told me everything above 24h is G2G to be used as a rust protection for the ship transport, your version is >30h and the new is around 100h IMAO. Gonna send you some more once we got our 1st production in AZ, including some of my carolina reaper seeds ;) I wonder what effect it got when used inside a gun, like using it for dead/non-moving parts inside handguns or a BCG. Would be based if the dry film is able to separate the carbon from the surface to make it easy cleaning
>>59729621Sounds good, I look forward to it. Lmk when you send an email though since it randomly signs out but it keeps the email numbers active like it's still signed in.

>>59729448It means you should double-check what you've loaded into your Skorpion.
>>59729554Aside from it being a Dragunov cope in a weaker caliber and the stock cracking issue, there just isn't enough demand in Canada relative to the number of guns they brought in.
>>59729554I'd buy one if it was a buy one get one free deal
How extreme could you go with 'quantity over quality' in modern war? For example what if Russia armed a million new mobiks with pipe guns and converted civilian vehicles into armor?
>>59729707See ww2 and what russian willpower can achieve, then come back.
>>59729731>it wasn't w*ctoid aid! Russian willpower psychically manifested 300,000 trucks from the air!
>>59729731you mean get lend-leased a bunch of equipment that isn't dogshit? how about the slaughter of millions of your own people because commies are cool?ill give you something, the russians really sure can take a raping and come back asking ass first asking for more, and then act really proud of how much you got raped
>>59727129Within moderation it's never bad to have more infantry. In fact having too little infantry at the start of the war is a trouble all western armies have struggled with. And they will continue to suffer it because the risk:return ratio for other weapons systems is better, leading us to invest there, but they don't replace the need for infantry. Adding an extra platoon to every infantry company and an extra infantry battalion to every brigade would be great for commanders. But without the rest of the system, air power, arty, etc, it would be a waste. Unless you're next door to the enemy or have teleporters to get there, you need the full combined arms plus logistics or you can forget about 80% of offensive operations and 50% of defensive ones.
>>59729742When Russians feel they are in danger and on the brink of defeat, they rally, shout their battle cries, and push forward, leave their enemies overwhelmed not just by numbers but emotionally by the sheer sight of Russian relentlessness
Was this the gayest and cringiest forced meme to ever come out of US gun culture?
>>59729549"marketing influence" teams.
>>59729586the gun aside thats such a low effort hawaii shirt lol
>>59729622Yeah some of the gun-themed hawaiian shirts actually don't look half bad, but that one in particular is hideous.
>>59727178>Punisher Skulls on police bootlickersGot you covered, it's from the same group as >>59725942 too.LOL Proud Boys.
>>59729606So, guns as fashion. Yeah that's pretty fucking gay to be honest. Understandable that people want to buy what is perceived as the best but to never even fool around with it on a monthly basis? Why bother?
another one?
>>59729489They have legs bigger than mine and I squat over 400lbs. Also your image isn't really a good one, it looks shopped either because something with the quality and the lighting... or it was shopped.
>>59724480sexo>>59725431>>59728888your lack of testosterone is why you will never be a global superpower.
>>59729745I'm American. A slender fit and toned physique is infinitely better than those cattle and their ridiculously fat legs.
>>59727003I've seen this image a few times and have no idea where/what this image is from. anyone got some context for an autist?
