They all try weapons but what if trained eagles or crows are used against drones?https://files.catbox.moe/jk0a4w.mp4
>spend months or years training your eagle/hawk/whatever to take out a drone>gets exploded
>>61567371>spent 10,000 USD to train cope bird>explodes in its first interception>or dies from flu >or gets too fat to flyyeah
>>61567382maybe you can train them to just damage rotors and not explode with the drone, even then its cheapear to loose a crow than a human (maybe russians are cheaper not sure)
>>61567371Wouldn't a counter drone achieve the same thing for a lower cost?

>>61564854the Pacific was just a lot darker than GK or Band of Brothers. The last two made war look fun while the pacific seemed like everything fucking sucked.
>>61564839I didn't like it at first since I was going to binge it right after band of brothers. Watched the first 2 episodes and gave up on it. I gave it a 2nd chance a few years ago and it's really not too bad. Obviously it doesn't hold a candle to band of brothers but it's still decent in its own right. Especially the episodes where it starts to focus on the mortar crew with sledge and snafu.

A couple of not so good guys at my school (I'm 18) keep joking about attacking me on my walk home, I'm kinda worried...Any suggestions /k/? I'd prefer if it were under 100$ and could knock a man down for a while.
>>61566777PS, my advice would be carry a gun, but I live in Canada so that would get me sent to fuck-me-in-the-ass-prison for life, so I choose the second best option.
>>61566520Tasers/Stun guns are kind of garbage though. Serious question: Have you considered getting the largest pepper spray you can carry?Silly question: Have you considered a black powder cap and ball revolver?>>61566535From the question, we can assume he is either in "avoid detection" or "avoid targeting".>>61566688Bats have more range though. More effective range helps win fights.>>61566729>option of lethal or non-lethal force.Look, a martial arts expert with lots of training can talk about using it on their arms and legs for nonlethal but the reality is that the average Joe or Jane will swing at the opponent's head if their life is in danger. Blunt objects are lethal weapons, its why less and less cops seem to carry batons nowadays, those weapons suck as non lethal.>>61566845Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

Why nobody else has procured a grenade sniper for their soldiers but the based Chinks?
>>61566772it is, it's just thic and bolt have this weird cut at ejection port
>>61566863nah bruh they differnt. I seent. I ain't no dummy.
>>61563897I feel like a 60mm mortar and drone correction is probably more effective than this in basically any imaginable combat scenario but I was navy not army so wtf do I know
>>61566985maybe easier to see here
>>61564004Wouldn't that also include any explosive shells fired by tank guns or other portable weapons?
Why isn't it more popular?
>>61566758That's because the results of the comparison are exactly the same between the two: the .25 ACP only beats the two weakest 22 loadings, and on average is no better.The 950 Jetfire makes 65, 67, and 68 ft-lb with the three rounds given.The only weaker 22 loads are the 27 and 29gr standard velocity. Everything else on the 22 list is equal to or superior.
>>61566758For what it's worth, Buffalo Bore makes some 50 and 60 grain .25 acp loads advertised at 850/875 fps. Some guy on the bbti forums tested them and pretty much got the advertised velocities in a couple pocket rockets. They supposedly meet the minimum FBI penetration criteria too, which you're probably not reliably getting from ultralight high velocity .22lr.
>>61566605>>61566711>950 Jetfire>Model 20lol. I have both. Worked on the factory floor in '82 doing barrel rifling before the barrels were heat treated. I absolutely fucking hated it. Bought a Model 20 a couple of years ago to keep as a reminder.
>>61565519>>61565576You be the judge : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDOhwucT8QU>>61565630>we are literally talking about guns that have barrels shorter than 2 inchesName half a dozen.
Paul Harrell carries a Baby Browning in .25 ACP, if it's good enough for him, it'd be good enough for me
>When we evaluate how weapons perform, it is important to note the conditions in which they operate. Abrams were committed into the fight this winter at a time when Ukraine had a lack of infantry as well as mines, ATGMs, air defense, and artillery ammunition. This may seem bizarre from the outside, but Ukraine often employs tanks in a manner to compensate for a lack of infantry or ammunition for other systems because those are the conditions they face.>If you don't have enough artillery or ATGM ammunition, you may bring up a tank or Bradley to engage Russian armor or infantry instead. This could involve placing an Abrams or Bradley at greater risk than you would like, but these are the organic assets that the 47th Mechanized Brigade had, and they come with a different supply of ammunition.>All weapons have vulnerabilities, and you mitigate those vulnerabilities through combined arms. When several of those arms are weaker (e.g. infantry, artillery, air defense), because of attrition or a lack of ammunition, others will be more vulnerable as well.>So we need to be careful drawing conclusions that are too strong and sweeping about specific weapon systems or tactics without asking the Ukrainians what they think.He's right: https://twitter.com/RALee85/status/1786437807403102569?t=svHWQj_sgMdRZNOXLWqrDg&s=19

>>61565308It's over, NATObros. We should recall all equipment from Ukraine and book a slot in Yandex calendar to sign the capitulation act.
Yeah our tanks suck in certain ways.
My father fought against these during the Battle of Washington in 1946. He said they were much scarier than the Me-262s because the Lerche had wire-guided air-to-air missiles that could disintegrate allied bombers. Also the engines were very loud.
>>61559258I genuinely wonder why wire-guided A2A missiles were not used in the Zestroyer aircraft desu.
>>61567007I can imagine that guiding it in by Mk1 Eyeball means the launching aircraft has to remain fairly steady while guiding the missile in, which would make it pretty vulnerable to defensive gunners and escort fighters.
>>61567088Doubt it is worse than the 30mm minechenen (sp wtf) cannons that were throwing literal monster energy cans at tennis ball throwing machine velocities in term of standoff etc. You could even put it in an Me 110 and use the Fritz-X type guidance, having the backseater control it after launch, cranking around and turning and burning. Kraut AAA defense in general is mind-bogglingly retarded to me. Like, they had V-1s, and decided yeeting shit into farmer's fields outside of London was a better use than making a nigger rigged SA-2 which could wipe out an entire bomber box. Germans are good at designing shit and terrible at using it, I guess.
>>61559258>muh bomber formationsMeanwhile in the real world:>70% attrition rate of initial deployed units within the first month of combat Turns out that wire-guided AA missiles are a liability when you've got to deal with escort screens and interceptors.
>>61559310based
Not the best picture but you can see the tank wheels of the M1150 was replaced with T-80 wheels.
>>61563558It's fucking amazing, this year we got the actual original 2022 and before FSB shills complete with proofs posting. It must have been Prighozin's shill farms being shut down that did it.
>>61559413>systematically gang raped by the criminal convicts to rehabilitate them into communism,Are you sure this will help to further the cause of communism?
>>61566060Lmao thanks for the explanation. I guess today we're getting raided by actual FSB pederasts. We saw this last sunday too. It's kinda nuts, it must have been Uncle Priggo getting his company and himself shut down making them go back to how it was.
>>61567063Of course. Only through hard labor can a man build the future stage of human history! Even if its hard labor in the rectum!

Did you ever find/get access to a gun when you were a kid? Was it loaded?What did you do?
>>61566507Based dad
>>61563957Yeah, I was handed a WASR when I was 9. Shot some steel targets with it, was fun
>>61564120Your dad sounds like a great dude, anon.
My dad started me shooting when I was about 6. 410 kicked my ass but I kept going back for more. When I was 8 he bought me a Remington 870 20 gauge for Christmas and it sat next to my bed until I turned 13 and he bought me a 12 gauge for my birthday.
>>61563957Yeah. It was one of the first times I'd ever had a negligent discharge. Just one of many. I was grounded from my Xbox 360 afterwards because I left a hole in the wall.
Remember, you have a constitutional right to owning your laser rifle, the BOS cannot take them from you.
>>61566771You don't even need mods. The Minutemen are the only faction representing local autonomy and self-reliance. The Institute only wants test subjects, the Railroad doesn't care about the greater Commonwealth beyond the assumption that things will get better once the Institute is gone, and the BoS are mostly there for the Institute as well with a sideline of local serfdom.
>>61566849>You don't even need modsYou do if you want your signal grenades to summon more than four level 1 settlers with pipe pistols, if I'm rebuilding a Minuteman as an army to recreate the Commonwealth Provisional Government I'd like to be able to actually equip them with at least helmets and combat rifles the artillery is based though
>>61566886I never bother with that, just like the Vertibird grenades or anything else that summons NPC allies.
>>61566900Vertibird grenades don't make sense in normal gameplay but are a lifesaver in survival mode. Minuteman grenades could be useful if the Minutemen weren't literal hobos and scavvers. If I'm rebuilding them as an Army and styling myself as General I'd like them to, y'know, look the part. Like NCR troops in NV.
>>61566959They're not really a formal army, they're a militia system with a loose central command. Though I agree that you should have a way to make them more powerful. Levelled summoned NPCs like they do with enemies would be the simplest fix, with maybe it being split based on PC level and how many Minutemen quests you've completed. Like, doing the bare minimum will get you 1 or 2 Minutemen at your level with acceptable gear, but being Preston's errand boy will get you a half dozen guns decked out in the good shit.

Had the EMALS from USS Ford been DC instead of AC have fixed most of Its operational issues?
>>61565128A dynamo can directly generate DC, but there are so many disadvantages compared to three phase AC power, it's basically irrelevant.
>>61565202Dynamos don't function at low RPM, conversion loss.With AC generation any rotational energy can be converted into AC no matter the RPM.
>>61557460give me 100 Tesla cars, $100,000 for expenses, and dozen each Jr College engineers and auto-techs, and I'd build a cat on the football field able to launch 100,000 aircraft to 200mph in 80yds, and do about 2 dozen like that as fast as you could hook them up.I've run the numbers, and priced the parts, just need some techies to gang up the cars to a shaft and computer control their output.Maybe I'll send this idea to Elon, he likes big dumb stunts and could sure use some good press at the moment.PS-when in port the crew could use the cars to cruise around town, and this would help local hookers ID customers. On board ship the cars could serve as "gaming chairs" for video gamers.
>>61565501>100,000 aircraft100,000lb aircraftIIRC max loaded F-18 is heaviest current at about 80,000lbs.I unironically think new-gen of unmanned drones could include aircraft P-H-A-T-T-E-R that current full load fighter jets, for reasons.

When will this be real?
>>61565928>unsourced screenshot from a year-old article Again, going to trust the official police website over you. >On August 24, 2022, the Hawai`i Police Department announced that it has revised the permitting process for license to carry concealed and unconcealed firearms as a result of the July 23, 2022, Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) decision in the case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc., et al. v. Bruen, Superintendent Of New York State Police, et al. The updated application and supporting documentation forms are linked below. https://www.hawaiipolice.com/services/firearm-registrationHawaii removed its justifiable need requirement from it's concealed handgun application form. Again, I'm not claiming the libshit states are happy about complying with Bruen, but, slowly but surely, they all are. American legal institutions are still sacrosanct and anyone in a position of power in the this country IS going to follow a SCOTUS decision because not doing so implicitly undermines the basis for their own power.
>>61565846>How do you feel about everyone from the Los Angeles City Council to the Hawaiian Supreme CourtYou mean just those two right? No not everyone is doing the same and your lying by implying otherwise.
