cafe is still up. but BO is a huge faggot. there is no returning to julay /k/. it seems like there is no longer a fun place for any kind of firearm related discourse.

an hero sounds like a better and better option everyday.

The F15E is the Big tiddied Onee-san of fighter Jets.

Are you retarded?

Just give him the rent check minus the $40 bucks for your cellphone bill.

Why are you complaining?

>he didn't tip his landlord enough

Sad.

I already tried to talk to DARPA with a very, very viable powerplant and actuation system. They are so incredibly corrupt they don't want innovations. It's just another "milk the tax money to funnel projects to our friends" department of the government.

I could give you viable power armor in six months with enough manpower and budget. Then you could decide the level of protection and speed you wanted versus weight. It ain't the stupid supercomputer-slaved money pit that DARPA claims is necessary.

People like me wait in the shadows, because the government is too phenomenally corrupt to do anything that doesn't redirect money to their buddies and owners. One day when DARPA is a real, actual research department, you will see people like me at the fore.

Until, it's just another corrupt and rotten scum bucket holding back tech, funneling it to "foreign interests" and spending vast gobs of money on stupid stuff.

DARPA is the FBI of technology. They might as well install their facility in Tel Aviv with a secondary branch in Beijing. The phenomenally worthless and money-wasting crap they come out with boggles the mind. Try checking out the website that shows where the latest government contracts went, and to whom, and for what.

We don't need deodorant condoms or automatic masturbation gloves or whatever the heck they are spewing these days.

DARPA is Deep State, one hundred percent.

You are completely wrong about the powerplant.

Do some calculations. What horsepower would be required to run a one-ton armor suit?

Unlike a one-ton car, a lot of the energy for locomotion is reciprocating energy. This being the case, like a piston engine where the piston being slowed down at the top and bottom of the stroke is actually using piston velocity to accelerate the crank, similarly, energy from a pair of running legs going back and forth, for example, can be fed back into the system. When the legs are at their maximum velocity is when they are passing each other. They then flip their acceleration vectors and begin slowing. This energy does not have to be wasted.

But, anyway, it won't take as much energy to move a one-ton suit of power armor at 40mph as it will to move a one-ton car at ITS top speed, because lower air drag, less energy to move one ton to 40mph than it takes to move a car to 120mph for example.

The power source only has to be about 135hp. I won't divulge actuation systems so a bunch of rice-gobblers can run to the patent office with it, but the power is not very great, and it will easily fit in a backpack-sized bump anywhere the design sees fit to put it, depending on whether the soldier or Marine power armor suit is going to be in a quadruped or biped configuration. Think of the gigantic 62 ton M1A1. 1500hp. How much does the engine weigh?300 pounds?

There is no problem at ALL powering these things, or actuating them. The PROBLEM is the corruption in DARPA and the US Homomilitary in general. Is anyone above first lieutenant actually in possession of a virgin anus anymore? Obama started the Pride Parade.

Nothing is more corruptible than a homosexual. Nothing.

Doable.

Expensive as fuck though. Priced the materials alone, nearly $80k. The tooling is easily 10x that. That's before you even get involved with the actual manufacturing and maintenance costs.

So figure a single suit about $1 billion. Close to a million a year to maintain it.

Power sources is the issue. If there was compact solid state megawatt lenr/zero point energy systems thennwe can talk.

Tbh the Halo MkV suits are said to cost more than entire ships/fleets to build

So with regards to the "Networking" section outlined by OP, there are no groups near me on zeemaps that are not multiple years out of date. The only militia groups I can find are one sanctioned by the government that has the blessing of the govenor and those pathetic larps the III%ers (boomer fucks who take themselves too seriously but are all about 600 pounds. You could probably find a few vids of them on youtube. Faggots.)

Does anyone have advice on finding a group for me?

>>689867

I personally want to know whether or not any current militia groups would even be worth joining. I don't want to risk being put on a watch list. At the same time, a decent group of people could be incredibly useful come SHTF provided they're actually decent and they don't stab me in the back.

>>689867

You have ham groups, which are chatty, but still are just a bunch of dumb, judaizing boomers. One tactic I recommend if you're truly all alone is to make a throwaway jewtube with a generic name like "x county (state name) survivor group" and just make short low resolution videos discussing survival topics like comms, targets of opportunity, self reliance, et cetera. I've been redpilling boomers lately by showing them that cops will not do their job if it means they will still be paid, so that any plan they come up with has to include cops potentially being targets themselves. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if you just searched for this yourself and didn't find a similar thing already up and running. If you only get 10 subscribers, you will have sympathetic people near you that you can shitpost with in the comments section, to then move to having nets on CB or freeband, to then meeting irl if you feel like you can trust them. Best of luck, intel says chance of emp/internet blackout stateside this month.

>>689890

You're here, you're already on a list. See above if you're in a similar predicament.

lkkl

Hey losers, intel says that once the china dam pops, the music stops. EMP strike warning is still in effect through november. Please please please network, because your life will depend on it. Please take the OP and spread it to the webring /k/ sites. I'm working on converting them into infograph/cheev lists for cuckchan/printing and distribution.

>Is it because they only test the effectiveness of the fragments

It's a tactic problem, artillery shell complex pattern of fragmentation is one thing because an artillery shell is an indirect fire weapon, that is meant for zone targeting. An artillery battery fire effectiveness is measured by density of projectile per m².

So firing at a bunch of man sized target in a field to measure their effectiveness, while perfectly valid for an arty gun, is beyond retarded for a tank. If a tank ends up in such situation it has two MGs to deal with it. Hell mortars were a thing too at some point.

Because a tank HE shell is used for one thing only… destroying entrenched position (in these day a building) and for that what you need is always the biggest bang, because the very definition of entrenched means a position in which personnel that has taken cover from the fragments flying around, especially since no one field assault mortars guns within engineers anymore. Tank HE shells should have longed been switched for Thermobaric compounds instead of trying to enhance fragmentation or "time-delayed" penetration.

Problem is HE shells, even thermobaric ones, are cheap. Multi-fuzed sensored time-delayed tungsten balled pre-fragmented sleeve? The margin of profits on that are so much higher…

If a even WWII style concrete bunker gets hit by a modern thermobaric 120mm HE round I strongly doubt anyone in it will survive due to the over-pressure. Without all the fancy gizmo to make the shell penetrate, then explode, then fragment (which wouldn't work with concrete everywhere meant to defeat fragments).

>>683517

There is still recoil, the pressure is such impulsion of the gas meeting the air and the projectile leaving does create (even if it's less), but the bullets are the only thing moving so it should not be impossible. The problem is moving/opening the chamber while it need to lock much more perfectly to cause the build up,Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

I've got a design for a propane gun that's all mechanical and uses the camp stove tanks. I don't think you will get any higher velocities with propane.

The important thing about light gas guns is having a light gas. the speed of sound is faster in a lighter gas, or a gas with a higher temperature.

This chart shows the speed of sound in various gasses. Gunpowder should generate mostly Co2.

>Wouldn't that make the ammo extraordinarily expensive?

>simultaneously BRRRRRRRRTTTS millions of dollars worth of the very same tungsten at anything in or around friendly airspace

Would make one hell of an anti material rifle though if they made it in .50

I really admire American military equipment because it is always the best in the whole world. I try to find some parts of it on https://www.agmglobalvision.com/thermal-imaging/thermal-binoculars and sometimes I am able to find it. Thermal binoculars are really top.

/k/ is dead because it splintered into a billion autistic little meme boards when 8Chan died and still hasn't recovered, and no-one wants to use 8Kun since Jim is a cunt.

How could they? I don't own an AR-14.
