/k/ - Weapons

>>521099

Yes it its. SA switching to her former nemesis' side?

>>521100

I can't imagine this isn't Russia responding to something Iran did to piss them off. What that might be though I have no clue.

>>521100

SA is changing pretty rapidly as of late.

>>521107

If I read correctly the production rights are only for the AKs. The S-400s are sold in the old fashion way.

Why the AK-103 instead of the AK-109? I mean the AK-103 seems pretty good based on the SLR-107 but the AK-109 system with the reduced recoil seems pretty good for 7.62x39

>>521134

The AK-103 is battle-proven in the region.

>>521134

>>521098

>Why the AK-103 instead of the AK-109?

Because it's a KSA service rifle?

Actually trained KSA troops (royal guards, airborne and commandos) have AKs, the rest have meme-16.

It's probably KSA trying to get back into Russia good graces now that they've backed themselves into a corner.

If they do get some S-400 it's gonna be interesting times indeed the only reason to buy those isn't against the outdated and outnumbered Iranian air-force.

Add the fact that they did reach a cross OPEP/Iran/Russia agreement on oil prices and it looks like KSA is warming up to the fact that

Moscow is now king of the sandbox…

End of the petrodollar when?

>tfw you will never have an AK-103-1

>>521149

>End of the petrodollar when?

Maybe this is related to Trump getting uppity in these last few days.

>>521149

>End of the petrodollar when?

12 days.

>>521150

>>521098

So Saudi Arabia is retiring the HK G36 platform as thier service rifle? But why? And why do their special forces still uses M4s as their main weapon still far as I know?

>>521156

The HK G36's barrel used to overheat too easily and had some function issues related to it.

>>521162

>>521162

Butt hurt pro AR-15 propaganda.

>>521162

No, those claims were proven wrong by actual tests in a week. Of course, they "forgot" to announce that on every news outlet.

>>521166

Fuck off HK, pencil barrels are retarded.

>>521166

Then why has it fallen from grace worldwide? Confirmation bias?

>?

<?

?

?

>>521165

That's not a sustained fire overheating test.

>>521166

>they "forgot" to announce that on every news outlet.

Yet H&K themselves are not Disputing the claims. I have feeling H&K are encouraging the bad press on G36 because they went every to switch over to the more expensive HK416.

>>521187

Probably because it is not mid-2000s anymore. It is not the cool-looking good-performing rifle with little to no problems as everyone thought with pink glasses and staring blindly into the unknown future of long-lasting peace in Europe.

Turns out no gun can get an image of a actual fighting tool if no countries that actualy go to war use them. Yeah we threw some bullets from these to sandniggers, but everything associated with middle-east is considered a hot mess anyway.

So goverments just waited 2 decades, did not get a chance to fight with anything, sperged out about turrurism, then decided their flashy toy is bad because there is no chance to use it anyway.

>>521195

>Yet H&K themselves are not Disputing the claims.

where did you get that stupid crap from.

>>521154

should I be scared polan?

>>521258

Yes

>>521258

long story short china wont fuck with economy untill that day, its their party election and they explicitly stated that markets have to be calm or someone will get shot.

thanks to venezuela oil now is also traded in yens and china can basically destroy world economy and estabilish themselves as nr.1 for centuries if they put their stashed gold to use

>>521359

Unless somebody causes massive internal unrest :^)

>>521366

at this point usa wouldnt be able to do that, because its money would return to price its really worth less then 0

>>521497

I was implying them causing unrest in China, or a few industrial (((accidents))) in sensitive Chinese power plants and etc.

You never know.

>>521588

Arabs are incapable of war in modern times

>>521589

Exactly.

>>521589

>Arabs are incapable of war.

Fixed that for you.

>>521589

They were always incapable of war. Saladin and other such "heroes" were all Persian, Greek, Egyptian, Assyrian or some other ethnicity.

Arabs = Jews = Akkadians, understand this!

They are the same people, the same roots, the same flawed genetics.

They conquer by ethnic displacement, backstabbing, crime, terrorism, genocide. Never actual combat with an enemy army or actual achievement on their own, in isolation.

They've destroyed countless civilizations in this way. These demons in human skin are only ever successful for a few generations after they destroy a major civilization, and usurp their culture temporarily.

I suggest you start by reading everything you can get on the rise of "Akkadians" (a name which they fucking stole) by conquering the city of Akkad through crime and bribery, which was the city of a previous better civilization. Then a guy called Sargon of Akkad, whose name literally means "legitimate ruler" just so the goys aren't confused, started conquering more cities. His first conquest involved bribing an enemy city so he could enter, then bribing a Sumerian kings guards to surrender their king, whom he enslaved. Sargon then performed brutal genocide on the locals, the gate guards, the kings guards and stole all the money he used as bribes back.

Ironically considering your flag, the few Sumerians who escaped became refugees and eventually became Sarmatians. Who in turn became Slavs, of which the Serbians are a tribe. So Jews genocided you since before you existed, in the deepest levels of your past.

>>521599

My blood boils. We shouldn't be fighting for them.

>>521615

Romans? Avars? Huns?

See pic:

>>521615

Can inbred sandniggers even read the blueprints for something as advanced as 21st century SAMs?

>>521598

I am trying to be sympathetic with Assyrians but I have to admit that their kinships and primordial history don't paint them in a good light. Fucking Sargon usurped the world's first major civilization through subterfuge, terrorism and demographic displacement like all sandnogs do today.

>>521598

>arabs = jews = akkadians

Really explains a lot tbh. Makes me sick having to live in a literal nigger tier country whose majority of citizens are redpilled on Jews, but have been memed to hell and back by the Jews' slightly shittier equivalent.

>>521629

No definitive roots, populations here through ages have been mixing with each other.

Anyway why can't Arabs improve themselves without relying on the white people? If they rely on the white people then it make them look silly and useless.

>>521733

Pathological laziness.

>>521736

Where's that gif from?

>>521738

The handmaiden's tale tv show.

https:// watch-online.biz/episode/the-handmaids-tale-s01e01-offred

>>521739

Heard about it. Do you consider it worth watching? How much/10?

>>521750

It's basically feminists version of dystopia.

>>521754

Yes, I know that much. But is it watchable or too pro-lefty?

>>521721

I'm sure they can copy current tech, but I don't think they can make something of high quality on their own.

>>521130

What would SA do with the production rights anyway? Can't build those things with Ethiopian and Bangladeshi slave labor and the Saudi yoofs are too busy drifting Bugattis on dunes or whatever the fuck they do.

>>521755

There's maybe 5-10 watchable minutes per 30+ minute episode. By all means watch a few episodes and see for yourself. Overall I figured its not worth my time.

>>521766

They actually can't. I know a guy who worked construction for them, they actually can't read blueprints. One or two floor house? OK, they build it crooked, but it's not a catastrophe.

Anything higher? They hire Germans, Indians, Americans to build all of their buildings. On their own they are too stupid to make a vacuum cleaner.

They pay cash money to literally transfer every panel, nut, bolt, from an Italian car factory from Europe to Saudi Arabia, along with super expensive robots from Japan that do 99% of the labor.

They pay $500,000 to every 1% human laborer to transfer their whole families to a protected compound in Saudi Arabia and work there. And then they say "Saudi Arabian factories are improving."

Take their money away and these people would devolve to smoking hashish and barely clinging to life through subsistence farming.

>>521588

We really shouldn't be helping them because we are not their babysitters.

>>521723

We are all Jews

>>521902

The thing is they're paying westerners to babysit them in cash.

>>521785

Makes me wonder just how much dosh they throw at the burgers who design their Ottoman tier "WE HAVE TO BUILD IT BIGGER AND BETTER THAN THE LAST GUY AND DAMN THE EXPENSE" skyscrapers

Who the fuck would they use it against? Iran?

>>521933

Qatar, while the US sells F-35s to both sides. War as slapstick comedy.

>>521785

>barely clinging to life through subsistence farming.

I think you meant subsistence shepherding/herding.

>>521940

Can't grow a lot of shit in the desert

>>521940

It means you subsist (survive) on the farming. Nothing gets sold, any extra gets traded with neighbors.

This means ninety five percent of the people are surviving through farming. Which means only ~5% people in places like Afghanistan are intellectuals, politicians, priests, technicians, factory workers and so on… they literally can't have an industrial revolution until more people are freed up.

>>521941

With proper irrigation they could turn the Sahara into a jungle, but they'd rather invest in gold plated BMWs. No one can doubt what they're going to eat when the oil runs out, or the West invents a new source of energy.

>>521931

US construction market is about 2 trillion, total GDP is around 19 trillion. 10%

Saudi construction market is 300 billion, and their GDP is 700 billion. 40%

And most of their country looks like a shithole with dirt roads, so….. yeah they're overspending a bit.

Although be careful when calculating cost in some Arab nations. In UAE cost is kept down by government subsidy, and because the basic workers and foremen are all slaves. I'm not joking, they are actual slaves. They outlawed slavery starting in 1970s and until 2012, but a lot of slaves are still sold and bought on the black market. Free Emirati citizens are only 11% of the population, rest are slaves, or "migrant workers whose passports and pay are held by their master and who are executed if they try to escape." Which is why it's fucking dumb for a white girl to tour the middle east on her own.

>>521941

For example California is supposed to be a desert, yet it's the state with highest food production. Because the people who built America irrigated the hell out of a continent, the Arabs should be able to do the same with a peninsula by desalinating water and getting permanent irrigation dikes in place. Instead they pump aquifers dry to do circle irrigation, which in their temperature and humidity means most of the water is lost to evaporation, and the loss of the aquifer means that place is going to be ridiculously hell-like soon.

>>521723

I'd argue that the swarthy pretenders reduce co-operation both internally and externally and thus will never achieve the same level of civilizational complexity as Europeans.

>>521941

Not with a median IQ of 85 that is.

>>521964

Commiefornia has it easier because they can pipe in water from colorado.

Desalination is VERY energy intensive and thus mostly used for drinking water. Farming with it is cost prohibitive.

>>521984

Even the most fucked up desert can grow dates, but we aren't just talking about the arid regions. If the oil dried up their population would clearly crash, and the remainder would be in the few areas where they can grow beans, almonds, melons, pumpkins, millet and alfalfa.

Their problem isn't the soil or the weather, it's the fact that they put zero effort into making their lives better.

tl;dr what is your point

>>521987

>very expensive

These are people who have vending machines for gold. They could desalinate a minor freshwater sea and put it in the center of their peninsula.

>>521941

AKSHUALLY deserts are minealogically rich, the problem is always water, drainage and salinization.

>>521990

>tl;dr what is your point

his point is same as yours. that arabs suck and are retarded

>>521990

>their population would clearly crash

To subsist in farming, they would need to not subsist and die EN MASS first. My point exactly, what the fuck is wrong is your comprehension. Herding would be the only thing helping people living in the arid regions.

>>521994

This.

>>521991

>They could desalinate a minor freshwater sea and put it in the center of their peninsula.

Oh so you are an "everything is easy" guy. Good to know.

>>521991

Accoring to wikipedia "Desalination costs in 2013 ranged from US$0.45 to $1.00/cubic metre ($US2 to 4/kgal)"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desalination#Economics

It's gona suck doing large scale farming at that price. My understanding is that there are some farming projects going on in the middle east relating to water conservation. But with saudis that's just gona mean more slaves.

https://watereuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/WateReuse_Desal_Cost_White_Paper.pdf

>>521996

Do you not understand that farming doesn't mean just plants, right? Farms include everything from the plants I mentioned to the animals you mentioned.

>>521997

Haha dude fuck you, you clearly want to start a fight.

They desalinate 100 liters per every person in Saudi Arabia per year. Canada, a country literally covered in fresh water, where we take no measures to conserve it, and are a net agricultural exporter, uses about 350 liters per person per year. You're telling me the saudis can't desalinate twice more than they already do?

They're just too busy using ridiculously inefficient irrigation that wastes 90% of their water, and collapsing all their aquifers to give a fuck.

>>521999

That's true.

>>521984

>>521941

>Can't grow a lot of shit in the desert

You can it just take efforts and time (and none of those green project NGO irrigation tech gizmo bullcrap).

Arabs and Africans are allergic to sustained efforts.

Had we genocided them all when we should have there would be no more deserts, instead the whole planet is gonna turn to dust.

>>521935

I hope the European and others nationalists revolt and hang their traitors before that happen so they won't have to deal with the more refugees in the future.

>>521984

> and always being able to deceive, the civilizationally superior

That can work only as far as there are civilizationally superiors to parasitize on.

>>521997

well, considering that we are talking about people that build buildings higher then sky for no reason and that they have more money then common sense they probably would be able to make their desert green by hand, be it desalination of sea or transporting ice berg up there

if they only stoped being retarded for a second

>>522001

>Farms include everything from the plants I mentioned to the animals you mentioned.

They CAN, doesn't mean they do. A place that can do as grassing land isn't automatically a farm. If you don't understand why the Bedouins were nomads/shepherds that's your problem.

>You're telling me the saudis can't desalinate twice more than they already do?

They can't because they are lazy and dumb.

>That's true.

Thank you.

>>522002

>Arabs and Africans are allergic to sustained efforts.

Excellent phrasing.

>>522023

But if all the others died the Jews would still be able to live as a theocracy. They are weird, but "civil" enough between themselves.

Please don't give them any more idea. We need less mudslimes, not more.
