when they had the NY airshow last year and a guy got killed in a stuntplane, my coworker caught it on camera and you can hear all the morons going "ooh was that part of the act?" when he broke apart, meanwhile you can hear me in the background screaming "oh my god" because I knew he was dead

there's always one nerd around when disaster strikes

the stats in Vietnam alone should have been a lesson, but I feel like wires got crossed somewhere

like the advantages of being able to strike short distances quickly at low altitude for an assault, that's cool, but anyone who seriously thinks gunships are decent CAS, I dunno

maybe in a permissive environment like a catholic girls bedroom who grew up with a single mother, maybe?

Hey guys, let's sink an Oliver Hazard Perry class, the USS Thach!

the keel hit by a torpedo ~2:20 is a thing of beauty

That ship is completely hosed. It just takes a while to actually fill up with enough water to sink. Ships going down in <5m are exceedingly rare. The spine of that ship was snapped like a twig by that torpedo near the bow, which is exactly what the torpedo is supposed to do. The entire front end is basically being held on by the few surviving internal walls in that section.

Yeah, if you want a modern naval ship to go down in 10 minutes or less, you need a torpedo or mine to break the keel (and the rest of the ship) in half.

Even then, there's no guarantee that either section of the ship will actually go down. It's probably easier to pound a ship such that the crew is depleted, or it's on fire so bad that it no longer can fight effectively. Even nukes at surprisingly short ranges won't necessarily send a ship to the bottom.

e- though like everyone else said, that ship is a write off even if only the torp hit it, it's sooooo broke lol

Is that... it looks bigger than a 90mm, is that a 115mm gun?

the hilarious thing is the Syrian conversion of this gun utilizes the hull of a T-34
