>>61513438You know everyone’s talking about APC depletion, but I want to know about artillery. That’s… really big numbers of lost artillery. How much can you lose before you stop being able to arty party effectively?
>>61513029Nigger, the hull has peeled open like a can opener in multiple places and entire sections of it are missing.The treads are completely gone, along with most of the road wheels.The whole thing has been scorched by fire to the point that nearly all of the paint has burned off.It's not a tank, it's a wreck.

>>61513232Okay hi-speed what would you suggest then? I was originally looking at hescos but they have qc issues and have had a few if their plates kicked due to not meeting NIJ certs
>>61513329adept RF2 or colossus
>>61513292now of course the video is from adept themselves so I'd like to see an independent test
>>61513292They're weirdly good. Makes it seem like DuPont Corruption™ that Kevlar helmets were ever introduced at all, because that helmet beats the shit out of the PASGT at a lighter weight.
>>61511617ITAR only applies to exports from the USA. In your country, there are local laws. Many things that are ITAR-restricted are not restricted in the EU. But thermal and IR rifle scopes are extremely illegal to possess, in most countries. Some countries, such as France, also appear to limit NVG more generally.

What is the appeal of these things? The weight reduction? Aren't polymer guns a meme?
>>61511014yeah. or the echo93 chopped ones are even shorter, about the same as a carbine tube with stock at 2nd position
If you're gullible and fall for memes (they aren't any lighter than spec aluminum lower setups and they aren't cheaper either) or a contrarian retard they have appeal. People at large moved away from them a decade ago, largely when Plum Crazy lowers got shitcanned by the GayTF and removed the only actual cheaper-than-usual option from the market. The only reason they're even still mentioned today is Kucky Karl shilled CavArms to high heaven a few years back.
>>61511633the newer ones work as well as any injection molded mess like the one in OP. they're always gonna look like retarded bugman dog shit, but live free or fucking die.
>>61509038Injection mold costs are often exaggarated.This design is not even that complicated, just a two part mold I don't even know if they have any extra elements.So it's only four steel plates that have to be CNC'd, no need to even polish them because there are no shiny surfaces. That's $1000 per mold maximum, these molds are not a very big part of the whole cost.
>>61509826You can make most components be equally strong no matter the material used. Just gotta make it thicker. The only problem is if you're lacking space like in a firearm bolt or if you're dealing with crazy pressures like firearm barrel.
Alright lads, I installed a hi-vis front sight to my mk iv and its come a bit loose everytime I shoot it. Apart from loctite what are my options? Plumber's tape?
>>61513350there is no such thing as a 5.56 lower. there are just AR-15 lowers. there might be weird AR lowers, like AR9 lowers with smaller mag wells and ejection ports, but they will be clearly labeled.there is no optimal bullet length, retards arbitrarily use powder burnout distance as a number, but that's because they don't understand internal ballistics in the slightest.
>>61513373Sorry, that's what I meant, AR lower. And did you mean barrel length? I was just wondering what would be considered "good" as I wanted something sub 16" to perhaps store in a bag and have a reduced weight.
>>61513407Not him, but 8-10" for a .300 BLK barrel is a good length.
>>61508772why are even standard ruger marks 500+ dollars? wasn't the original fairly cheap
>>61513407>want a rifle>but have to be able to put it in a bag>And also it has to be the optimal length for an undefined criterion, you know, because I have a vague idea of what realistic things to prepare foryeah dude build a 300 memeout. don’t worry about which manufacturer’s barrel because they’re all going to have gaped asshole gas ports so nothing’s really going to gas correctly, and the best ammo when it hits meat are already $3/rd which probably only a few cents more of the same Lehigh Controlled Defense or Buffalo Bore solid copper hunting rounds in a more common and tested cartridge like .223 and .308but at least your gay zoomer blaster that already has two pins and separates into distinct receiver groups will fold with a $200 adapter and you can tell your noguns friends the US Military adopted 300 BLK with no evidenciary use!
According to satellite images Russian Su-35 did magic trick and turned into big black spot on airfield of Krasnodar Krai
>>61513436>Ukraine losses for sure.I have a feeling that if that ever looks realistic, Russia will be in such bad shape, that Poland could buttfuck them, let alone NATO.Do you think the west would allow Ukraine to lose? I don't. And I don't think Russia is strong enough to stop them. Even if France decided to go it alone, and rock up with troops on the ground tomorrow, what's Russia going to do about it? Threaten nukes again? Pffft. Paper. Tiger.

Why do you not have a suppressor in the year of our lord 2024?It’s literally the fastest and easiest it’s ever been to suppress your guns.
>>61513430I have 3. But it's been rarer until relatively recently and ultra painful until very recently, so a lot of people just plain don't know. You don't really understand until you have it and there are tons and tons of absolutely fucktarded nocans takes like >>61513440 fpwp floating around the community. Also:- It's still a $200 stamp, and still a minimum $300-400 for a can, and still a certain amount of first time effort. People are lazy and cheap. It'd be a different story if it was unregulated and $100 otc.- The awesome, fantastic boost in speed of approvals has in the short term resulted in massive out of stock issues. That'll go away eventually but "I literally cannot find what I want to buy in stock right now" is a valid excuse.Hopefully an explosion in suppressor usage and familiarity getting rid of hollywood meme shit will ultimately build enough political pressure to deregulate them completely. But if it happens it won't be for many years.
>>61513440>>61513466Seriously just try shooting a suppressed gun. It’s a much, much more pleasant experienceMy last suppressor was approved in like 10 days
>>61513503I'm not denying that, but OP's pic is evidence of a mental disorder.
>>61513430You can't get them at all in Canada (yet) but they look like they'd really fuck with the gun's balance. There are certain rifles I have that I already don't like having a Streamlight HLX out front because it makes the gun noticeably nose-heavy. I would definitely thread one on my bolt gun for deer hunting though
>>61513480You’re probably right. Most people aren’t aware of how easy it is nowadays. Once you use a silencer shop kiosk, buying a suppressor is stupid simple, and now you can get suppressors approved in less than 2 weeks with eforms

>>61513437It's the ching chong department of IS
Where the fuck do you find these?
>>61513401no it sounds retarded out of context
>>61513437theyve been doing clones for a long time but only recently have their lasers been being more about durability/full power instead of just looking alike
Anyone have any to share?
>>61506838I thought North Korea was part of the "Axis of Evil?" Is my memory failing me?
>>61503468based
>>61507420It also kinda hurts any President's image, at the end of the day. You're democratically elected, and the myth of America is that you're supposed to be a "man of the people," but you go everywhere with this big knot of scary dudes in suits who won't let anyone get in sneezing distance of you. Inevitably, there's going to be a point where your desire to just be another American and do regular American things overwhelms your willingness to be tardwrangled as the Leader of the Free World.

Bradley evacuating troops while laying down fire. Textbook use of smoke here
>>61511911Why do you think that your view from a GoPro comes close to the view of the gunner and his optics? Pretty dumb statement to make
>>61511916Nope, they still utilize their mass produced tanks like the t-72-t-80 as fire support. The abrams saw saw missions, but its in very limited numbers to realistically do much operations without risking to be destroyed. Unless the U.S. sends more, they will consistently be selective to where they put the abrams.
>>61511870Not much they could've done with 30 tanks in total. Same with Leo 2's, Avdiivka fell by the time they actually got all the leopards.

>>61510967That's the plan. In my country, I've been told that degree holders automatically start as 2nd Lieutenant. Is this also true for the US? I might've misheard because I wasn't really listening when we were being oriented about it lmao.
QRD on raising children on a military base?
>>61507683Very true>>61508345Infantry should also double as police officers. There is no need for us to have 50+ seperate police departments, especially since niggers and illegals are turning major cities into warzones. Did you know that cops have more combat experience than most infantry?
When a Russian Spetsnaz cut the ear off a terrorist, his fellows re-enacted the famous "I am Spartacus" scene when the Kremlin wanted to punish him. If a western soldier did the same, his "friends" would be tripping over each other to sell him out for glow points with the Liberal Inquisition. Why do Russian soldiers show such camaraderie while ours do not?
>>61513358>homosexualIn Russia, it's illegal to portray faggotry in any positive way. The law is called "For the Purpose of Protecting Children from Information Advocating a Denial of Traditional Family Values".>Asiatic steppeniggersThe Mongols (called Tartars in Russia) were not only kicked out of rulership but subjugated centuries ago.
