Carteret posted:YUP. The black smoke you see is a Carbon(silicate? can never remember) add in that fucks up Infrared. They had sweet drop down screens so the drivers could see where the hell they were driving when they were in seas of smoke, and I don't remember what spectrum the periscope used, just that it was expensive as gently caress and we weren't allowed to touch. If it makes you feel better, it was a challenging problem and we spent many government research dollars in trying to solve the simple problem of "being able to see through gently caress loads of smoke".

Bensa posted:I'm pretty sure the interface is NI's Labview, its easy to hook up a variety of instruments to it and it doesn't require actual coding. Very robust if implemented correctly and entire factories depend on it. Was just about to post this, is that loving LabView of all things controlling the Railgun? Also I think there was a future weapons thread at some point here, might have fallen into archives.

I guess they don't get dogs out number women in SF units by a pretty massive margin. Have any of the CoDs had female characters?

holocaust bloopers posted:I see that and think of how awful it must've been for all of those maintainers and aircrew guys. Congratulations, Dyess leadership. You single-handedly ruined the day for hundreds of people. I gather it's a fuckload of work / organization to get 20 planes to sortie simultaneously? I figured C-130s would at least be near the bottom of the hours of maintenance per flight hour scale.

shyduck posted:I'm pretty sure C-17s are mainly used to haul goods down to Christchurch, New Zealand, and either from there or one central part of Antarctica they use LC-130s to move everything around the continent. Yeah, the LC-130s still have skis I think that let them move stuff around to more remote places. I think C-17s can land at the one/two permanent solid ice runway, I've seen pics of C-141s chill in' with penguins.

Yeah, it's really hard to fight back when your opponent has already murdered your multiple times before you even knew he was there. Don't worry though, I'm sure the retarded infosec folks at various contractors have already helped China/etc figure out how to beat it.

TCD posted:I thought that the Silent Eagle would have been an okay compromise for some of these countries like Australia and Japan. On paper it seems incredibly sane to sell the F-15E airframe to many countries: twin engines, decades of operational experience and knowledge, great range, multi-role, reasonably priced, etc. In the case of Japan, they already operate F-15s (I forget if they are license-built). I'm sure IAI or Elbit would love to fill a void left if certain avionics components were not exported. In reality though, politics & marketing, I guess have got folks hopping on the F-35 train
