Memento1979 posted:Some pics of the Russian assault on a tanker captured by pirates a few years back - this is the one they got in trouble for when they left the pirates on a boat with some food and water and set them adrift. Where were they keeping their AK's, up their rear end?

HATE CURES TRANNYS posted:Out at sea, salt air, no maintenance. Is it really surprising their AKs are rusted to hell? Yeah I get the severe corrosion, those things still look like they're covered in a veneer of poo poo. In other news: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Kazakhstan_Antonov_An-72_crash A Kazakh AN-72 ate poo poo while descending to land in Shymkent. One of my fav Soviet aircraft, because they actually operationally implemented something Boeing got stuck only developing. Included: An Airliners.net search with a shitload of pics I confuse the IL-76 and AN-72 all the time for some reason.

iyaayas01 posted:Bomb The shape and coloration suggest to me that it's a newer GBU-10...but I do agree that it's photoshopped. In reality though it would be kind of hard to spot the aft wings on a falling one, because they are stubby as hell.

Rude. posted:Feels like I'm in D&D almost! حركة المقاومة الاسلامية I never got why we stopped using snakeeyes, the AIR kits are for lack of a better word retarded. A thing that looks like it's using giant razor blades to slow down is way more rad.

Casimir Radon posted:It's not from the pixelated stupidity bandwagon. The colors were interfered with by the uniform board, against the recommendation of Tigerstripe. I think it's goddamn hilarious how the AF rejected the pretty legit digital tigerstripe patterns that actually blended in with things in order to go with the loving bizarro-retardo ACU pattern we got in the end

Also we all remember the 747 cargo plane that crashed a few months ago, how do the controls react to the changing CoM? Or does it matter at all because the pallets ![]()

Was it far enough away to arm and actually explode or was it the shell itself that hosed it up?

I guess if you change that design a little bit and make the cone narrower and the tungsten part is made of some kind of lighter metal it turns into a nuclear bomb pumped-xray laser or some poo poo like that

Could you counteract roll on a big ship by having 2 rudders canted to the outside so they deliver counter-roll in a maneuver?

it doesn't mention the warhead that hit the helo but i'm guessing it was a 2000 lb so the explosion was literlally 10x bigger than an AA missile lol

it was a laser guided thing so realtalk there is a small ram air turbine that powers the fuses as soon as the arming wires from the aircraft detach so it blew up on contact this is gulf war poo poo so i may be slightly off but in general that is the most likely scenario e: also had a ram air turbine pop open and say hello to me close-up on a live bomb once that was cool

never fired a mortar but something tells me the propelling charge goes off low-order like there's something lovely with it instead of detoating normally and shooting the thing out
