If they make that fire suppressant 155 shell a reality I'd be at risk of doing something stupid like enlisting again. Then maybe starting forest fires to try it out on though if California is in play I wouldn't have to...

Wouldn't this more likely be dumb boring MLRS? Or equivalent?

Can I tell you about how fast we can respond to this with 155's and firefinders or is the opsec nanny gonna throw a shitfit? Because we can respond to bracketing in less time than it takes to bracket.


Here's a nearly 14 year old picture.

im sure the dod has spent hundreds of millions of dollars trying to figure out why black dudes seem to prefer to do non-combat arms jobs. those hundreds of millions of dollars had to have produced 1 public academic paper.

The dod doing research on things like that often ends in guys like Grossman outright faking all thier data and crying "national security/secrets" when called on it.

As an artilleryman I'll point out the 198 had aluminum trails that cracked fairly regularly and those were just metal legs with a shovel at the end so it'd dig in and not move as much when you fire. The 777 with titanium poo poo doesn't crack as much. Can't speak for the paladin but there's a reason our self propelled stuff is on tracks, not tires. Even scaling down I don't think your average truck frame is gonna take a lot of that type of abuse without serious reinforcement. Firing a cannon while moving is best left to tanks.

I forget if this is the random pictures thread or not so sorry if wrong thread, but I got back from my two weeks of playing army mans last week and here's the highlights. We had ammo leftover after a range, so we put all the loose poo poo in a can



This was placed at the bottom of said can



and now the part you've all been waiting for,

DICKS IN HATS!!!





sorry, thought I had more cover HAT dickpicks, I had a late star ttoday so I've only been drinking since 1pm.

The craziest part from the whole briefing is how long it was before they made their first radio call that they were in contact. It was a full hour before they called for help.

So, was one of the ups on their AAR "better comms plan than the seals"?

If all of your vehicles are still running you're supposed to just floor it and get out of the killzone. The video doesn't say if any of the vehicles were disabled before they stopped.

That and adjust fire off one of your TRPs. Real curious as to what their review looked like after considering even my retarded rear end knew what to do in an unblocked ambush as a Lance.

Here is a tamer piece, reminiscent of childrens movies, facebook posts and somehow, disappointment.




On to your much more traditional HAIL GAY SATAN themed artwork.




Until we finally arrive at the finest masterpiece of penis available in the medium of sharpies on army hats, relayed to me by a DaVinci of Dicks wishing to remain anonymous, and passed on to you, the critics of cock...

Apparently the sword hellfire can hit a car without damaging the engine or the contents of the trunk.

As long as it doesn't do water damage it won't hurt the resale value too much.

Weird question (uh...research) but is there some kind of DFAC at Camp Lemonnier?

Yes but I believe the Navy calls it a mess hall. Social distancing is in effect though so if you're planning targets for IDF I just ask that you hit my CLU while I'm in it.

I assume they blew it up there because they claimed it was too dangerous to transport

I once loaded several trucks worth of old rear end Iraqi mortars into gun trucks so we could drop it off at the engineers miles away to be properly disposed of. I guess what I'm saying is LAPD can gently caress off with that bullshit. Shame that none of them will see jailtime for terrorizing a neighborhood. Imagine what this country would do if anyone else set off a two ton vbied in one of our cities?
