Is there a bigger joke in the history of NATO?>1 × BAE Mk 38 25 mm (0.98 in) gunThat's it's armament.
>>61483661None of the Royal Navy’s destroyers or frigates have the ability to fire missiles at targets on land, leaving the US to carry out the majority of strikes on Houthi targets with support from RAF planes based 1,500 miles away.A British defence source said HMS Diamond, the destroyer stationed in the Red Sea, had not joined retaliatory strikes on Houthi targets because it did not have “the capability to fire to land targets”. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) said it had instead been “directly involved in successfully destroying Houthi drones targeting shipping in the Red Sea”. This weekend, a British-linked container ship caught fire after becoming the latest vessel targeted by Houthi rebels.One former rear admiral suggested that Britain’s inability to strike the Iran-backed Houthi movement’s bases from warships highlighted how the Navy would be unable to “go toe to toe” with Chinese and Russian warships.Currently, the only weapons on destroyers that can fire at other ships or land are artillery guns at the front of each vessel. While US destroyers can fire Tomahawk guided missiles at land targets, the UK’s only options for such strikes are deploying planes or submarines, five of which were reported to be unavailable at one point in the autumn.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/01/27/british-warships-lack-firepower-attacks-houthi-red-sea/
>>61483716>It was mass reported not deleted.No. It was your bed time. And you didn't want people laughing at your tantrum all night.Are you going to dance again today jester?kek.
>>61483737An absolutely damning write up. I can’t believe they would build toothless surface combatants
>>61483126>one-year warranty on a "warship"that's nuts. Even roads have a 3-year warranty.
Weird, American offshore patrol boats have exactly the same armament as Canadian offshore patrol boats. I guess the American navy is a failed enterprise.
Could a single infantry fireteam (looks like a squad leader, automatic rifleman, an airman?, and two regular riflemen) successfully clear the white house against the secret service?
No. the USSS's SRT is made up of mostly former operators.
>>61470468No? Is she hiding behind the gorilla?
>>61470417>seal team 6That explains the loose bags of cocaine being found around the fucking place.
>>61470744Some of the secret service codenames are fucking funny. They called JFK "Lancer" kek. Hillary being called "Evergreen" did not age too well either. They came up with C letter names for the Bidens, wonder what they had in mind for Hunter.

So what will realistically happen in total nuclear exchange scenario between all nuclear powers in the world. What would the world look like? Will it be habitable in 50 or 100 years?
>>61457833might aswell be a population density map
>>61483031i doubt that billons would die. india would be largely intact imo (usa and russia wouldn't bomb it, china and pakistan don't have the warheads). china would likely be very affected, also europe and north america, but there would be A LOT of survivors everywhere in that continents too. also africa and most of asia would be out of it and that's where most of the population is.
>>61458379Don't forget the niggress
>>61483431That's why I said worst case scenario. If Nuclear Winter is a real thing then most people in the northern hemisphere would starve to death. A few years to a decade of no sun would cause mass famine. Deaths from the bombs themselves would probably be around 100million in europe and the US but there would be nothing to feed the rest of the population for years.Every other nation in the world would probably go to war as a result too. Korea, pakistan, india, all of the middle east. Everyone that has a grudge would be set off.
>>61450259>So what will realistically happen in total nuclear exchange scenario between all nuclear powers in the world. What would the world look like? Will it be habitable in 50 or 100 years?2-4 weeks for most places if that, a year for normality, ground zero 5 years
Russian were hiding under this tank in the video, I am confused, what is it?
>>61483645>The videoWhat video? You haven't posted it, you haven't linked it, all you've done is post a screenshot to start a thread in bad faith.
>>61483606>>61483696bruh please get new material. shit like this was hilarious like a year ago, but it's getting bland.
>>61483696you're right, the T-14 is just another piece of shit T72. the tank you posted might have been good once. but really, this post convinced me that Russia is not pathetic but actually very strong
>>61483717please understand saar rupees are needful
>>61483706Thanks, do you have any pointer on the variant? For everyone that asks the full video this is the best image from it, it's on telegram I don't know how to send it here. It's a short video from the FPV drone smoking 2 Russians hiding under it posted by an Ukrainian source. There is a second drone watching the tank from up top which has this view.Here is another image
seeing this webm even though it was successfully used I see how many bullets he had to fire and he was still moving makes me think I need more stopping power than a 9mm what do you guys think?
>>61483536it worked right from the first bullet. the rest was him ensuring a long-term solution to this specific nigger-problem
>>61481859>>61481671> Today, I will remind them...
>>61483526But it's literally bad faith. The original guy is intentionally making a fallacious comparison. Peter is not invincible like Wolverine and MJ is not a random civilian, she's a character who is deeply sympathetic towards him. It's dumb that Peter isn't already 2 meters away with MJ in his arms by the time the attack was this close (unless he had his spider sense disabled somehow), but MJs actions are perfectly reasonable and there's plenty of media that features weaker characters sacrificing themselves for the hero which, rightfully, doesn't get any flak for that.It's all just sad fucks trying to pretend that a somewhat boring and mediocre thing is some sort of a crime against storytelling.
>>61483592>blah blah blah I hate white people and capitalism
>>61481671The FBI spent millions of dollars and several years studying the most effective sidearm calibers for their agents after they got BTFO in the Miami shootout. Their conclusions were .45 Super and 10mm were the clear winners, and briefly adopted 10mm as their new agency standard. Then a bunch of beta males and female agents said 10mm had much kick for them to handle, and they had to go back to the drawing board and came up with the cucked .40 S&W cartridge instead, completely defeating the purpose of the studies.

>>61481161I wanted to know that from the first time I saw this pic. Casually has a Vickers in some sort of room where...I don't even know what's going on with those doors in the background...and a pet raccoon. Didn't start this thread but finding pics like that just makes me want to find more. So random lol.
Quick convince this anon to get a pet raccoon
FUCK>>61470069
I LOVE ANIMALS SO FUCKING MUCH YOU WOULDNT FUCKING BELIEVE.I lost my 19 year old best friend cat last year and im stick emotionally fucked from it. He was better than most people i know.
>>61483183Same bro. Mark Twain was right>Verification not required
my eyes need candy. bonus for rare guns. >not my pictureQ- Where the fuck do i get 6.5JAP?!?!?. ive been looking into getting an arisaka, kind of a "one that got away" gun. saw one with the chrysanthemum at a gun shop for 700. didn't buy it.
>>61480010It's an M9-QD made by AAC which used conventional baffles but still has the QD setup that the KAC suppressors use, got the barrel and suppressor for $900 from an old FFL who said he only put 5 rounds through it before storing it away since the early 2000's.>>61480237The laser is some cheap one made by NCSTAR but I'm an MGS-aholic and wanted to make a clone of the XM9 from MGS2 which uses said laser.>>61480438It's a BRN-10 that I bought about a day after they announced they were gonna discontinue them. I ended up having the furniture repainted to give it a bakelite-style finish by Retro Arms Works.
>>61444138Andy Steinel and Graf's have it occasionally but it sells out quick. I bought 80 rounds of 6.5 and have been prepping to reload the cases because it goes by quick.
>>61479921Did your Match barrel change your POI like it did on my .45? I didn’t like that I suddenly had to exaggeratedly triangle the sights so I had to install taller adjustable sights.
the crown jewel of my collection
>>61481978I’m >>61480438And it did not, it’s a Jarvis Barrel
Does anyone have the screencaps of the old Fark post where someone claimed to have worked on a project where the feds figured out space travel using bose-einstein condensates? I've been looking around everywhere with no luck.My own contribution is this if you've never head of it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MARAUDER
>>61434811by 2004 every household had already thrown away six dozen AOL CDs.
>>61476490>paid>implyingWrong, retard. Fucking on nerds like you is payment enough. It would be like asking your mom for money after I'm done with her, it's missing the point entirely.>>61478120Realistically, if anyone had ever posted anything of value over the last 8+ threads... Unfortunately it's just the one pretend schizo who starts these threads and nurses them so they can torturously limp to bump limit over WAY too many days, and actual schizos attracted by the body odo(u)r of his shitty >implications.Real schizos make a post or two before fucking off, they're also somehow more coherent than this negroid. That's probably because they actually believe the slop they're shoveling.>>61478186Thanks for putting your own thread one step closer to bump limit. Oh yeah, by the way, +1 to bump limit, my fellow redditor.
>>61424903Nuclear injection gas generated electromagnetic radiation project was very promising with the potential for knocking an adversary nation back in the stone age by generating airburst EMPs but for reasons unknown the project was shelved. Inquire about the project to Gen. Austin he may have a word or two about it.
>>61483426Sounds neat, got any links I could check out?

>>61483566A2 coming in clutch as always. Seems like a pretty OP skill to have that no one really talks about or practices
>>61483616Why do you need a 20 minute explanation on how to shoot through a hole?
>>61483601I had a spare OA stubby I got for cheap and I chopped it even shorter. I like it even more now.

I'm calling WW4 because:WW2 was actually WW3andWW1 was actually WW2The first World War was actually the Dutch–Portuguese War, because they fought on all the continents, thus a World War.The history books are all wrong.
>>61483705>The first World War was actually the Dutch–Portuguese War, because they fought on all the continents, thus a World War.At least settle for the Seven Years' War you mong.
>>61483723>At least settle for the Seven Years' War you mong.fair
>>61483729Thank you.The answer is yeah, most likely.
Post family photos and roast eachother.

>>61483323based af for an euro, what is the ak?
>>61483629thanks dude! it's a saiga m3 exp-01
>>61483678sweet, I never saw a saiga with dimples and an accessory lug. Is it recent? I bought mine in 2013 and it's missing those sadly.
>>61483713bought mine in august of 2020, so i assume it's a slightly updated version
When do y'all finally decide to clean your guns, I usually wait until I get stoppages (I had two failures to extract across three range trips) I think this was around 2,500 rounds?
>>61483064Wipe down the carry gun after every shoot but don't totally break it down. Fully disassemble it after like 1k rounds. My .22 I deep clean after every squirrel season. My deer-Mosin gets cleaned with tender love& care after every season. My shotgun i haven cleaned in probably 6 years; probably put about 4k shells through it in that time. I occasionally wipe some oil on the exterior when it gets rust spots.
im testing soap for cleaning, dont judge without testing. Godfather Paul H. does the same
>>61483064Almost never. I just reapply lubricant when they get dry.
I only own 1911s, for the most part, so I clean them religiously. Built up carbon just acts as a kind of lapping compound if you only lubricate without removing it. I want my guns to last as long as possible.
>>61483064Depends on the gun. Most of them I clean every time as I just like cleaning and disassembling them, the ones I shoot often I usually wait a bit like 1k-2k rounds. in any case I don't allow a gun to sit dirty for more than 2 weeks because of my fear of rust.With 22lr (90% of what I can shoot lately) when it starts to malfunction.>>61483548hot soapy water in a ultrasonic cleaner is very effective, I just never do it to anything that isn't completely disassembled or with a simple shape like bolts etc in fear of not being able to dry it properly and then getting rust. I don't even know why I'm so fearful of rust when I haven't had a single speck of it beside when I forgot my 22/45 mags in the rain overnight.
Can it really take on the F-35 and F-22?
>>61483421>flutters during any sort of maneuverNah
>>61483595>no conquestwell yeah, since he was castrated
>>61483595Great but what the fuck did they do with it? Certainly jot discover& conquer the new world. That'd be like building the Saturn 5 rocket in the 60's and not going to the moon
>>61483595These things never even existed. Which isn't surprising, considering they're an engineering impossibility. My other favorite schizo Chinese claims is that they discovered the Americas but got bored and left and destroyed all proof because it was boring, and that the Chinese evolved from a different branch of humanity (h. erectus I've seen claimed), and thus are a distinct species.
>>61483421Probably not the F-22. Definitely not the F-35. F-35 has 360x180° IRST and that's a soft counter to radar stealth.
