Do you think it was just a cause that a female soldier was targeted by somebody willing to steal a soldier's weapon, or was it according to a a wittingly identification of the weakest... operator?

Why would you have a female soldier?
They are objectively much worse than male soldiers

How long does it take to learn how to properly service 1911-platform handguns at the level of a decent gunsmith? People claim it's one of the trickier jobs in all of normal gunsmithing, but how tricky IS it?

Mine is non-fighter aircraft carried on aircraft carriers like
>Breguet Alizé
>S-2 Tracker
>Fairey Gannet
>S-3 Viking
etc.
there was a time where dozens of such aircrafts were operated a time long gone imo a mistake...

Do the French have a carrier-borne tanker aircraft? I noticed the Rafale M still possesses a refuelling probe and was wondering if it sips from something off the deck or if it depends strictly land-based tankers only.

Be careful of the ones that have the lever safeties. There was a recall on them because if you flipped the lever on a live round it could go off.

Apart from aesthetics / mag size / mounts etc, what's the mechanical difference between the AS Val and the Vintorez? Or are they of the same platform?

On a related note, is there any truth to the hype about the high performance armor piercing ability of 9x39?
Going sanic fast is the primary method of punching deep holes in hard things and the 9x39 is subsonic.
Is it relative to other subsonic cartridges compared against soft armor or is it genuinely a good armor piercing round?

First question: Little to none. Trigger on the Vintorez is probably a bit better, but as no one on here has ever handled one or the other no one knows.
Second question: It's compared to other subsonics.

What does /k/ think of the Irish Naval Service and its fleet? Too small/underpowered, or is it big enough for a smaller nation?
Considerations:
>Ireland population: 4.6 million
>Coastline: c. 3,000km/1865 miles
>Military budget: $950 million/year
>Naval personnel: 1,100
>Current fleet: 8 ships
Fleet characteristics:
>3 Samuel Beckett-class offshore patrol vessels (commissioned 2014, 2015, and 2016) - 2,256 tonnes; 90m/300ft long
>1 Eithne-class offshore patrol vessel (commissioned 1984) - 1,960 tonnes; 84.8m/278ft long
>2 Róisín-class offshore patrol vessels (commissioned 1999 and 2001) - 1,500 tonnes; 78.84m/258.7 ft long
>2 Peacock-class corvettes (commissioned 1988) - 712 tonnes; 62.6m/205ft
Planned upgrades:
>Replacement of Eithne-class OPV with Beckett-class OPV in 2018
General deficiencies compared to other naval services:
>No aviation assets (air support provided entirely by Irish Air Corps)
>No submarines
>No support/utility vessels (tugs, trainers, etc.)
What's your verdict, /k/? Should Ireland expand its navy, or would that be a waste of money?

8 fucking ships
that's not a navy, that's not even a coast guard
Considering Ireland is not a real country anyway it does not really matter, they are UK for all intents and purposes
>>
>>33345562
Considering its job is protecting the Irish coast, it does an adequate job and they would probably get more bang for their buck for investing in the Irish Air Corps if they want more anti-ship capabilities but don't want the money to go to waste.
Think of it less like a navy and more like the US Coast Guard.

Seems like a pretty reasonable setup.

Was there ever a point during the cold war were one side had the advantage over the other? I heard the Soviets had more missiles and tanks than the US at one point. Enough to scare the US government into building the apache helicopter as a tank destroyer.

The Soviets (and later Russia) had more nuclear weapons than the US from around the mid-1970s to the mid-2000s. It's been around equal numbers since then.
As far as tanks go, the Red Army fuckin loved'em. They cranked 100,000 T-54/55s off the assembly lines, plus 20k T-72s, 25k T-62s, 10k T-64s, 5k T-80s and about 6-7k IS variants. Plus a whole family of self propelled guns, tank destroyers, and other shit.
Meanwhile, the US cranked out about 16k Pattons between the M46 and M60, and about 10k Abrams tanks. A bunch of other prototypes and one-run models exist with 20-500 models produced apiece.
US strategy has always been about overwhelming air power. The Soviets tended to prefer huge columns of tanks.

How would it play out if the entire Wehrmacht at its peak strength appeared in the middle of modern day Germany, say around Munich. With the task of defeating the modern day German army and restoring Hitler to power in Berlin. WW2 cannot use allies (Hungary, Romania, Italy ect) and modern Germany cannot use allies (NATO for example).
