Simple question, What would conventional warfare look like if physics worked like they do in source?
>jumping repeatedly can cause you to negate the laws of friction and you can change direction mid air simply by leaning in one direction or another, Allowing you to travel at insane speeds on foot
>explosions are somehow powerful enough to send you flying while at the same time not shredding your body or liquifying your organs
>most projectiles travel at light speed but seem to have a random chance to disintegrate harmlessly when they hit a target, Much to the frustration of the shooter

How would weapons technology evolve to best exploit the wonky physics of source?

>Bosporus strait is a "fatal funnel" for even advanced American warships

How accurate is this assessment? I'm not a regular reader of Foxtrot Alpha.

>Seeing as an American or NATO flotilla would have to sail through the narrow Bosphorus strait (and no the particulars of the Montreux Agreement is not worth diving into) and into the mouth of the Black Sea, such a mission would be perilous while a conflict or even extreme tensions were underway vis-a-vis Russia.

>Yes, American Carrier Strike Groups, or even small US Destroyer or Cruiser centric flotillas, are very capable at defending themselves, but having the Black Sea fleet let loose a full on anti-ship missile barrage on a US naval strike group would certainly end in burning hulls with tattered US flags blowing in the wind. You forfeit your ability to surprise your enemy when you have to float slowly through the center of Istanbul to get to your area of operations. The narrow Bosporus strait creates a "fatal funnel" for even the most advanced warships to survive and attack from. Since there is only one way in or out of the Black Sea for heavy ships, the mouth of Bosporus on the Black Sea Side would become a shooting gallery for the Black Sea Fleet as US or NATO ships emerged from the strait. Remote targeting would not even be necessary as visual spotters could call in the ship's position and Russia's anti-ship missile arsenal could be set on "fire and forget." In this mode the missiles will kill any surface contact they detect within a certain pre-planned geographical area.

It's a topkek post for sure. The Black Sea Fleet has 3 semi modern ships, and it's a Frigate and 2 Small Artillery Ships (Small Corvettes of the Buyan-M class) and has 3-4 Kilo Class submarines. If America bumrushes the Bosporus by jamming it full of carriers, I doubt Russia can do anything about it. It's not like it's within range of Russian land based anti ship missiles. And if Russia does fire it will have problems with Turkey since they have to fly over Turkey. And Russia does not want to anger Turkey.

First of all, this ignores the fact that Tomahawk range is roughly three times the 320mi of your image. Which means, no, the USN would not have to transit the strait to decimate Black Sea ports, facilities and airfields, or launch aircraft and AShMs against surface navy targets.

Once these things are suppressed, then can then transit the strait much more safely and send strikes deeper inland.

Rogoway, in his "analysis", often ignores basic operating features and tactical realities while constructing sensationalist articles.

Mouse gun, stories, appreciation, and questions.
.

My personal question is does it make sense ballisticly to shoot a 380 out of a one inch barrel over 25 acp?
75 posts and 12 images submitted.
>>
>>33379831
Bigger bullet= more damage. Shooting 357 out of a 1 in barrel compared to 38. makes no difference because they are the same caliber. If you shot a 44 mag out of a 1 in barrel it performs better.
Plus 25 acp is less popular and expensive than 380

>Couldn't we have just made 3 purpose built aircraft instead? Would've probably been cheaper.

"Yeah because relatively high commonality is too expensive, lets have zero commonality.
That will surely cut cost compared to having common parts!"

Sounds pretty retarded, doesnt it?

How many of these threads do we need to have?

>>33377994
Stop buying into the meme that the F-35 is so ultra expensive. Even with the R&D budget issues, when all is said and done and the F-35 is retiring it will have been one of the cheapest jets ever. Production costs are now coming in line, repair, maintenance and fueling costs will be amazing.

TL;DR
Don't get your plane information from know nothing faggots.

Why have big pistol calibers like 9mm and .45 dominated the handgun market, while .32 ACP is so rarely used? If you compared the chances of hitting a vital zone on an attacker from a distance and in a short time, the guy mag dumping his high capacity, easy to shoot .32 with FMJs would beat a glock 43 JHP shooter every time.
