Normally I'd ask how you all feel about the invasion, but I think that's honestly a redundancy at this point. Enjoy the shitpost guys.
What other options does Ukraine have to take down a couple of spans of the bridge, which is what it would take for it to be not repairable during wartime (vs mere holes through the surface that ATACMS and SCALP/StormShadow can accomplish)?

i'll probably get chewed out for thinking i could get half of these, but w/e. if anything is redundant, i'm okay with letting it go, but for the most part this is after reducing it for a bit.
My personal conspiracy theory is that police/intelligence agencies created a psyop to influence gangsters to hold guns sideways, use auto switches, and forego a stock or optic on a rifle so that they would have a disadvantage in a gunfight against cops.

SiAW is an air-to-surface missile for relocatable targets, including but not limited to: theater ballistic missile launchers, cruise and anti-ship missile launchers, GPS jamming platforms and anti-satellite systems. It will have a shorter range than standoff weapons, being fired by an aircraft after penetrating enemy airspace. SiAW will fit inside the F-35's internal weapon bays. The design leverages prior art in terrible acronyms, most notably AARGM-ER.

https://gloomgroup.com/blogs/night-vision-info/night-vision-specifications-understanding-what-they-mean
You shouldn't be chasing for spec values but they do exist and if you wanted to know what "better spec" values are there's a way to know which unit is desirable over another.
Most retailers won't post this info as they build NVDs to order, first come first serve, and depending on their grading scale of high, mid, low tier it may differ from retailers. If a retailer offer a “ready to ship” fully built units they will list the spec values. Hand select is an option from retailers that will try to match to your spec requirements.

SNR: signal to noise ratio, the amount of signal the tube can make compared to the noise
EBI: equivalent background information, how much false image appears in the screen through which the actual image has to show, sort of a noise floor of sorts
Halo: How big the circle of bloom is around lights
Photocathode Sensitivity: How sensitive the photocathode is
LP Resolution: Line pair res of the center of the image as measure against a standardized chart
If one spec is shit it negates the rest, if you have a halo of 2.0 it kinda fucks on an EBI of 0.20 if you want to do any kind of shooting and it's all a balance game
The numbers to meet or beat are
EBI under 1, preferably under 0.6 being great, 0.1 is gucci
Halo under 1, anything under 0.7 is awesome
SNR, over 25 anything over 30 is gucci
Photocathode, 1900+ is pretty great, 2500+ is stellar
Resolution of 64+ is good, 72+ is gucci

Also how do they convince to participate in suicide charges like those of ww1?
So here is the deal. I am going to be taking peoples information (in the format below please), sorting it all out, and making the picks by hand to best fit people's asks/spending minimums. I am going to be keeping it relatively simple from what was on offer in year's past, but I am confident that with last year's experience I am have a better understanding of what works and what doesn't.
1) INTERNATIONAL OR U.S.A
2) MAILING ADDRESS
2) NAUGHTY OR NICE (Bogans and Canucks automatically naughty)
2) SPENDING MINIMUM ($0, $20, $100+)
3) WHAT DO YOU WANT TO GET? Surplus items, clothing, local food/candy/soda/booze, books, gun parts, dildo knives, etc. Feel free to list whatever as you match will get the full list. BE THOROUGH WHEN IT COMES TO SIZING OF CLOTHING!
4) IS THERE ANYTHING YOU ABSOLUTELY CANNOT RECEIVE? Due to any reason, but especially by law)
5) WHAT DO YOU WANT TO GIVE? Do you have any cool shit that falls into one of the above categories? Do you have some weird shit that doesn't fit into the categories above?
6) IS THERE ELSE ANYTHING SANTA SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?
There is going to be just one exchange for the $20 and $100+ tiers, with proof of mailing due by December 10th. I will be accepting names up until December 6th, but just know that the later you wait, the less likely you will get matched with an ideal candidate. I am going to match people and have them exchange gifts with each other instead of doing a round-robin type of thing like I did last year. I already have a few people signed up for the international side, so we're off to a good start!

If so, could nuclear warfare be mad obsolete in the future, if someone could fire a pulse from long range to disable enemy nukes?
Are they still being used for area denial like in ww1 or has that doctrine shifted?
Would it still be accurate to call these anti personele tools, or are we seeing them deployed to deny hard targets, spraying a radar station with poison etc.

A 29-year-old suspect was arrested on suspicion of violating the Sword and Firearms Control Law for possessing a lethal electromagnetic gun, commonly known as a "really coil gun." The suspect had posted a video of the manufacturing process on a video distribution site, and the Metropolitan Police Department is currently investigating the details of the incident.
The arrested suspect is Nobuaki Usui (29), a man of unknown occupation from Nasu Town, Tochigi Prefecture.
And all the tanks are also garbage.

Meanwhile, Caesars elite Praetorian guard ONLY use unarmed fist weapons to kill gun wielding foes. How fucking bad ass do you have to be to kill shooters with your fists and athleticism?
Not to mention their selection is harder and more brutal than the faggot ass rangers. You only get to "Praetorian Selection" by picking one of the existing ones and challenging them to a fight to the death. Its do or die. You either make it or you get your head caved in.
Let's talk about their training.
What do you think a Praetorians unarmed and physical training would be?
I would argue they use pugilism, boxing, pankration or some other form of hand striking. You wouldn't use feet to kick when wearing armor and trying to strike as many gun wielders as fast as possible with a ballistic fist.
As far as physical training, they have to do some form of running due to them running 30% faster than other characters. I imagine some form of strength training and combatives daily would compromise most of their training.
Finally, how would a ballistic fist even be constructed in real life? The CIA apparently had one made during WW2. I wonder if a modern caestus would be better. A reinforced glove with a brass knuckle thats bladed or spiked built in or held.
Ave true to Caesar!

Light tactical aircraft T-75
Work on the creation of a light tactical aircraft (LTS T-75, "The Checkmate") began at the Sukhoi Design Bureau on its own initiative in 2015. Based on the results of scientific and practical work on the rational composition of the aviation group, an aircraft concept was proposed. The main aspects of which were the creation of a modern aircraft designed primarily for strike missions, but at the same time possessing high survivability rates, as well as providing a significant reduction in operating costs. In fact, an aircraft with the functionality of a fighter-bomber (similar to the Su-17 and MiG-27) was needed, but with a modern level of characteristics and new properties.
From 2015 to 2019, more than 20 alternative layout options were developed, taking into account various options for the composition of onboard equipment and weapons. The main areas of research were:
- determining the impact on the appearance of low visibility, the number of engines, the composition of the complex -
equipment and aviation weapons;
- research of alternative aerodynamic configurations.
At the first stage, institutes of the Russian Ministry of Defense were involved in joint research, based on the results of joint work with them, the main requirements for the aircraft were formed. The most rational options were recognized as those using individual properties of the 5th generation and ensuring a significant reduction in life cycle costs, which confirmed the correctness of the initially chosen development directions.
UAP's are doing reconnaissance as we speak, how would you even fight them? they switch direction at an instant with lightspeed and go underwater from the air back to orbit with no problem, reverse engineering is beyond us and even just being in the vicinity of them apparently gives soldiers PTSD and insomnia.
Camming extraction and chambering reduces force required for chambering and extracting by providing leverage and also provides a slower extraction velocity.
A pre-engagement stop shelf reduces total BCG sliding friction when picking up a round from the magazine.
All of these features significantly increase firearm reliability and do not have any downsides. There is no reason not to include them in any automatic rifle design, other than the fact that many weapons designers don't really even know about them.
Given that all of these features were found in WW2 staples like the Garand or the MP-40, any weapon designer after that who did not include them in his military rifle design is simply a hack.

- Russia might have the largest number of warheads on paper. But in reality Russia has to aim at (at least) three nuke nations: The US, UK and France. They would also have to aim at US assets in other nations.
- That means Russia has a lot more targets than missiles and, probably, warheads. So they will have to focus on the very important stuff. That means:
- Nobody's gonna nooooook western cities left and right because a) Russia does not have enough spare nukes to do that and b) such counter value strategies have been outdated since Reagan took office.
- Basically all modern nukes are thermonuclear weapons. Not for yield reasons but because thermonuclear makes for a much more efficient design. Plus thanks to more accurate delivery systems yields have shrunken massively since the late 1970s.
- Thermonuclear means you got Tritium in your warhead. This element has a half-life of only about 12 years. Means you need to replenish Tritium on a regular base while also removing the byproducts of decay.
- Maintenance of russian missiles had been outsourced to a ukrainian company since 2008. But this contract was terminated after the crimean invasion. So yes, their delivery systems haven't seen proper maintenance for ten years now.
- Maintenance of warheads, detonator systems and fuzes, guidance systems, fuel systems and all the other parts of a functioning nuclear missile is an absolute A-tier job. You need tons of experts, money and tools. Guess who hasn't much of all that stuff?
- Pootin might be an agreessive retard. But he ain't no complete retard. He knows all that shit very well. And he also knows that even using tac nukes in Ukraine would end his reign within a few weeks. Be it by external or internal force or because all the third-party "neutral" nations would turn their backs on him.
tl;dr don't shit yourselves, WW3 nuclear boogaloo won't happen because of the general situation and russian realities.

What are the possible examples of such things that could be achieved in the real world? Plasma shields? Some sort of energy converter shield? We've had theoretical ones mentioned a few years ago but nothing has come out.
Or will things just remain 'put armour on these things and hope it works' situation? Or, possibly 'just go fast and hope you're not hit' situation? I don't mean only personal shields, but shields for vehicles and stuff like that. Is anything even in the realms of possibility?

It's intended to attack relocatable targets like anti-satellite systems, cruise missile launchers, and GPS jamming platforms.
According to the US Air Force, the SiAW system will provide the capability to strike rapidly relocatable targets that create the Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) environment for 5th-generation and Future Advanced Aircraft.
SiAW targets include Theater Ballistic Missile Launchers, Land Attack and Anti-Ship Cruise Missile Launchers, Jammers, Anti-Satellite Systems, and Integrated Air Defense Systems.
The SiAW missile system is being developed under a Digital Acquisition (DA) approach emphasizing agility and innovation.
Northrop Grumman’s SiAW solution can be integrated on various aircraft and leverages lessons learned on the Navy’s AARGM-ER and integration work on the F-35 aircraft.
It also features a tail-controlled missile for increased maneuverability and survivability.
Northrop Grumman is investing in maturing and testing its SiAW design solution to ensure it meets US Air Force requirements while facilitating rapid capability delivery to the warfighter.
The Air Force is targeting an initial operational capability by 2026. The development consists of two primary increments.
The first increment concludes with a guided vehicle flight test, and the second concludes with three additional flight tests and the delivery of SiAW leave-behind prototype missiles and test assets.
The development of SiAW is part of Northrop Grumman’s broad offerings in advanced weapons, including armaments, components, missiles, electronics, and interceptors to defeat and deter threats.

Can't they just send 6000 men all at once?
You can deny a lot of things about China, but the only thing you can't deny is that China's CIWS has the best gunshot sound

So my big question is do Standard Missiles (and other ship-based interceptors) have any sort of IFF for these situations where they're coming in to what might be a furball scenario? What is actually the best practice here, do you have your air assets just GTFO if you're launching SM's and stuff? Or do they some how distinguish each other?
