How were the British able to bring one of the most powerful nations in the world to it's so quickly and with so few soldiers? Every book I've come across on the subject mostly focuses on how shameful it was for the British to wage two wars just to be able to sell drugs to the Chinese. The most they ever say about the conflict itself is just "the British won because they had superior firearms" but that doesn't explain much. The Chinese outnumbered the Brits 10 to 1 and were on the defensive. They still should have had the advantage.

Got a source? Everything I've heard about the late medieval/early renaissance says that Brigandines were used by rank and file while proper full plate was too expensive to see much use aside from nobility and wealthy mercenaries. Many parts of a plate harness have to be custom fit to the owner or you can cause all sorts of problems.

Sniper Thread.

ITT we discuss all things long range. The appeal of snipers "one shot one kill" is almost romanticized, visions of impossible shots, ghosts of death, and untouchable killers roaming around lone wolf style unaided and without need for aid. Certainly those like Simo Hayha fulfills this heroic caricature. Of course there's a lot more than shooting with impunity, even the South Armagh Sniper[s] ended up getting one of their fire teams caught, though not after ventilating a few brits and creating a legend on their own right.

Long range shooting, its aesthetics, its art, and its equipment.

It has nothing to do with s.t.a.l.k.e.r.s trying to murder each other, it has to do with not getting swarmed and btfo by the various species of subhuman that will form roving gangs once s does htf. Carrying more or less ammo of a certain caliber is kind of a null point as it would be nearly the same, and comes down to needs and personal preference.

However, having fat caches of lead to pull from will always be a benefit, if a snake has an area he likes to crawl then he can cache his shit in out of the way places where no one will find it. This does however require he actually has enough ammo initially to create such a cache.

On top of that, if the military gets btfo by whatever the fuck then their stockpiles become fair game (I do not promote nor condone stealing from the military either in peace time or times of conflict, this is only a theoretical about a situation where the military/government is defunct and rule of law has collapsed or there is foreign occupation) and you know what the military has everloving fuckloads of? 308. and 5.56. aka the most common ammunition types in america. Would you rather (in such a situation) reload every bit of lead and brass you heat up, or would you rather have fuckloads to ram through your steel?

Do as you feel anon, I know you will regardless.

Try to keep in mind that doctrine is a strategy level thing. Also try to keep in mind that jungle warfare =/= urban warfare =/= mountain warfare, and so on.You use the right tool for the job, in a jungle, a sniper is going to be essentially useless, in a vast expansive flatland, a sub-gun is going to be useless. It's about finding a happy middle ground for each situation and using what works.

When I say mobile warfare + overwhelming firepower I'm talking on the tactical level, as in using a truck to outmaneuver a tank, or several vehicles with powerful weapons flanking a position and curb stomping them.

Mechanized infantry is similar to airborne on the principle that they get somewhere fast enough, Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

How do you do fellow Russian bots?

In light of the incoming new Top Gun movie, how about we suggest our glorious leader Putin to revive the F-14 for propagandistic reasons? Russians could easily claim a Tomcat from Iran to reverse-engineer it in exchange for slight modernization of Iran's F-14 fleet. Given Russia's extensive production of Su-27 family parts as well as variable-geometry wings' parts for its existing airfleets and costumers it would not take longer than half a year to retrofit an existing airframe into a fully modernized fighter.

Theoretically they could even produce entirely new "Tomcats" that externally would be nearly identical to the original but made by modern lightweight materials and wiring within a year utilizing pre-existing infrastructure for Su-27/30/35, Su-24 and maybe Tu-22M production lines.

Lots of micro-controllers, lot's of micro-electronic, lots of hydraulics, lots of non-steel engineering too for the engines.

The frames aren't the hard part, once you know how to make one you can, at least in theory, make all of them (ass long as they're metal at least). The guts do requires you a lot more than a couple of CNC machines.

Which is why Iran, China, etc… were stuck at making really old school planes. The F-14 is old but at the time it was the most complicated fighter plane ever. The fact that only Iran bought them, and then was able to maintain some operational despite falling out with the US should tells you a lot about Iran.

>>687498

That's the reason they stated at least, there was a lot of speculation that Iran indeed got some US parts through proxies during the brief window the USAF started decommissioning them (which US style is always "military yard sale") and the government decided to destroy them.

There are public articles and evidence that the glowniggers knew about the imminent attack (http://archive.is/1xsbK), but Bush didn't take them seriously. Even on a normalfag level, the US government is guilty by omission of the deaths of at least 3000 of its citizen by sheer negligence. There is no reason not to blame at the very least the Bush administration.

Say you’ve got a pellet pistol like pic related that’s at least 200 - 450 fps, and shoots .177 lead pellets, would that be enough to stop an attacker? I know that a shot from a pellet gun can be fatal. Say you were to pop it into somebody’s mouth and shoot them in the back of the throat several times so that they drown to death in their own blood. Or aiming for the eyes to blind them, or aiming for the throat at a close range. If it’s powerful enough, you might be able to penetrate the windpipe. The face, as there’s many arteries that run along your face that aren’t too deep under the skin, and if you were to shoot one of those sensitive areas at close range with a pellet gun (like around the nose), they could bleed to death. If you were to debilitate or cripple them, you could aim for the groin (or underarm especially). I think that if they’re powerful enough in joules of energy released to propel the hard, lead pellet projectile, it could be enough to cripple or even kill an attacker. If you live in a place where gun laws are cucked but kaws regarding pellet guns are untouched, I’d recommend buying a good one, like pic related.

>Cobalt has such a long half life that you couldn't reasonably hope to claim any of the enemy's territory. Worse yet the fallout would swing around the hemisphere and rain down on your territory as well.

I thought that was the reason cobalt was used for salting a warhead. With a guaranteed second strike SLBM you're not using the nukes as a way to clear land you intend to occupy, but as a way to prevent anyone from fucking with you out of fear that you'll turn their entire country into an irradiated wasteland (like Fallout but without the vaults and fewer supermutants / more corpses). As such a longer half life that will absolutely definitely fuck up not only the target nation but everyone downwind you give your opponents neighbours a reason to help keep them in line too.

>Other than the possibly unpredictable nature of climate modification, possibly a little acid rain. Also some ozone depletion if it was injected at the wrong level of the atmosphere.

So we just need to plan & execute properly and we've fixed any risk of global warming. Possibly unpredicatable reactions is a pussy reason not to fix a problem - if we want to start terraforming other planets out there we should get some experience with a planet we're pretty familiar with, any problems it causes can be fixed once they become apparent.

This is a bread to discuss military concepts, prototypes and final products apart from everyone's favorite 5th gen multirole fighter following questionable theories/doctrines with great investment put behind them only to end up as massive wastes of time, money and resources for everyone involved.

What was the RLM thinking when they not only wanted to make a strategic bomber, but make it an dive glidebomber so it needs to be twin engined because drag except we don't have any engines powerful enough so let's put two DB601s in each nacelle sharing a single propeller through an autistically complicated gearbox while negating any potential advantages regarding engine redundancy on top of creating considerable difficulties in engine cooling.

The USN had ordered 5 large flush decked supper carriers before the Project was canceled in 1949, 5 days later after the first carrier's keel was laid down leading some USN Admirals to resign in protest.

These carriers were supposed to carry heavy (relatively speaking) nuclear-armed strategic bombers whose wingspan was too large to fit on the decks of regular carriers, hence the unobstructed flat deck.

Consequently such a carrier would have very limited onboard defensive armament and piss poor to no radar, relying on its escorts for such things.

They would operate as dedicated heavy bomber carriers inna Task force alongside regular carriers, apparently the Chair force wanted the monopoly on strategic nuclear strike capability and so jewed it to death with the argument that the ships would be too expensive.

It was pretty retarded. They made all sorts of design compromises in order to operate strategic bombers… which were all totally unnecessary, since the USN had already developed a strategic bomber capable of operating from Midways and were only a year away from adopting it. Had they made it to production they would have actually been no better at their intended role than a Midway, while costing several times as much and being useless dead weight in a conventional war.

What exactly would have made them so much more expensive than conventional suppercarriers?

They were about as big and expensive as a Forrestal, but had half the hangar capacity (with an even smaller magazine) and would have needed to be accompanied at all times by a special command vessel because they didn't have the sensors to track their own air wing.

Let's discuss all things falling-block, from pistols to cannons.

With that said, I've realized that I want to see a gas-operated, belt-fed, striker-fired, bullpup Madsen. Hear me out:

>gas-operated

Imagine an operating rod that has all the camways and whatnot required for the action. Now the receiver is much simpler, and the barrel is fixed. I imagine the action would have good repeatability, because there is not much to go wrong.

>belt-fed

A Hotchkiss-style feed system would go hand-in-hand with the way this gun loads new cartridges. Make it out of aluminium and it's not even heavy.

>striker-fired

If you have an operating rod anyway, then just fix a firing pin on it, and then you just only need a very simple trigger system, as the Lewis gun and the FG-42 demonstrated.

>bullpup

With a bolt that only moves vertically you could make a really short bullpup rifle. It ejects downward, therefore you don't have to worry about left-handed people. And the striker-fire system works great with bullpups, because you don't need a linkage.

Sounds interesting but i see no real use for a belt feed in a rifle.

Also i've seen you Hungarians around for a while now, is one of you actually going to design and possibly build one of these bullpups you talk about or are just just here to shit out your autistic ideas?

I have thought of a similar idea years ago.

However I came from a recoil mitigation, inherent part strength, and unjammability* standpoint that lead me to look at the Madsen (mostly because of the falling block) as a possibility, though I ultimately moved onto the Whitney-Kennedy action.

Here's a video of the Madsen I quite like.

*Pretty much if it can't handle having a Karo syrup and sand mixture poured directly into the action it's a shit design in my book.

Yet simply counting the required parts seems to be beyond you.

First of all, nowhere I've said anything about a rifle. Second, a belt-fed system can be superior to a box magazine even in a rifle.

>Also i've seen you Hungarians around for a while now, is one of you actually going to design and possibly build one of these bullpups you talk about or are just just here to shit out your autistic ideas?

Are you asking the same thing in every thread where people discuss ideas?

>>686372

Not exactly, but now that you mention it, the Korobov does seem to be simpler. It just needs an extractor that somehow erects the spent casing, and then goes back to vertical to snap on the rim of the new cartridge. And there are several ways to do make that work.

>>686400

>the Whitney-Kennedy action

It does seem to be better than any of the Winchesters, but it doesn't seem to be particularly suited for self-loading firearms.

For the last time there was no fleeing. People migrated for jobs and better living conditions such as welfare and health care, many of them were invited into the west or shangheied (operation paperclip). To confuse fucking refugees with migrants this hard is to say that alboniggers deserve to live in germany because theyre 'fleeing'.

I'm always been fascinated by the work behind supplying men with guns, food, and assorted kit although I've never explored the question of comfort women in any great detail. In ye olden days, medieval times and such, it seems pretty common that once you conquered a village or town you were free to rape and kill as you pleased.

Gradually, society civilized but the underlying animalistic urges remained. I've read about brothels and comfort houses during times of war in the 1900's but I'd be curious to read personal accounts on such places. I'd be keenly interested in accounts from the U.S. Occupation of Japan post WW2 where you had 350,000 men stationed at the end of 1945 and upwards of 60 to 70k Japanese prostitutes servicing them.

In the modern era what is the expectation of pussy availability for troops abroad? How has it changed since the industrial age?

>muh moralizing

I don't think anyone is saying Nips were bad at logistics of pussy allocation during the wartime economy. I think the point is you can't just round up women like back then and put them into service the same way the Nips did.

I would be interested in learning about how women were divided up, valued, and distributed among the troops. I have lots of questions in that regard.

>after x amount of dicks were they given a stipend or some form of support if their vagina looked like a bruised Arby's melt?

>Were comfort women made airtight to service more servicemen more efficiently in times of high demand and low supply?

>How did the government-subsidized pussy affect the local civilian market for their prostitutes?

My biggest question is, where is the pussy ledger? There had to be some guy crunching the numbers on this somewhere. I want to see those figures.

One of the things the Hungarian military does well is organizing military themed summer camps for kids to increase the number of young people who have an interest in military affairs. Most kids fucking love it. A lot of them ask their parents to sign them up next year as well, because - as it turns out - being outdoors, wearing camo and learning about weapons is fun. Much to the surprise and dismay of Hungary's small,but vocal 'progressive' segment, who see the military as an antiquated institution that has no place in this world and who would rather send the kids to a LGBT tolerance camp

Would you send your spawn to Hungarian Army Summer Camp? Imagedump is a-go.

Actual fucking grain. Like a medieval peasant. Money would also have been acceptable though. I'll ask Grandma further next time I visit her. Anyway, when she was 17 in 1949, she made a remark that she doesn't give a shit about celebrating Stalin's 70th birthday and another young girl (a cousin of her suitor who later became my maternal Grandpa) was enough of a zealous activist to report this to the proper authorities. Fortunately the local prosecutor had enough common human decency to realize that he didn't study law to get young people into prison for meaningless bullshit and Grandma was acquited.

Said cousin died a nobody, the party never acknowledged her zeal.
