We can arm our entire Marine Corps once over in a single day--- with guns entirely in civilian hands.
Meanwhile Australia sits around and jerks off over the """Cat D's""" they can never hand.
Feels good to be American.

Oh I wish the liberal nightmare was real.
With billions of evil racist rednecks driving off in bargin bin tanks, cruise missiles, and machine guns galore every year.

This. I don't remember being issued .22 lever actions, and .25 acp pistols.
If 185,000 AR15's were sold, maybe we're getting somewhere.

Regardless,civilian hands than M4/M16 in the USMC.
Not that it means anything, Cletus and José won't do shit with their Anderson shooting TulAmmo.
Pic related, post thoughts.
I think it doesnt actually have anywhere to keep water, spare power packs, or pretty much anything else you'd need to fight.

Less /k/ than the Deathkorps of Krieg uniforms.
>>32157061
I think the only Imperial Guard regiment that actually uses semi-proper field gear is the Death Korps of Krieg.

Judging from it's specifications it's far ahead of most Western MBT's, but can they produce enough of them, and make them reliable?
>>32156472
The T-14 is the biggest project in the Russian defense budget at the moment and for the foreseeable future. It's their F-35. And like the F-35, its expensive, but worth every dollar for the increased fighting capability that it provides. They see the T-14 as the future of their ground forces. Yes, they can and will produce this tank in very large numbers.

Can we talk about the Airbus study for a potential replacement of the German Tornado Aircraft
https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/airbus-studying-manned-successor-for-german-tornados-426634/
>two seater
>several components of the aircraft are from the Eurofighter line
>mission profiles include reconnaissance, target acquisition, electronic warfare and even air strikes.
Though the main selling point of the aircraft will be the command and control capacities of manned and unmanned assets. It's basically a new aircraft type.
Are they getting France involved in any way?
>Airbus
I'd rather drag my dick through broken glass
>>32156179
We will be involved until the end to crash this plane with no survivors.

Are anti tank rifles relevent in todays warfare?
Unless your forces are the "army of thieves and whores" then no.
Don't know but damn I'd like a 20mm or ptrd
>>32155343
They make OK anti-material rifles.
Some shitty APC's can be penned in the side/rear by them.
https://news.usni.org/2016/04/06/navy-requires-450-million-more-to-complete-zumwalt-class-due-to-shipyard-performance
What the actual fuck, I just did some reading and found that each Zumwalt costs 7.5 billion USD. Doesn't congress have a law against military projects costing this much?
Each one costs as much as:
- 4 Arleigh Burke Destroyers
- 15 Littoral Combat Ships
- 2 Queen Elizabeth Aircraft Carriers
People like to say the F-35 is expensive but the Zumwalt positively curbstomps it in price blowout. Seriously, it's nearly as expensive as a Nimitz aircraft carrier.
How do they get away with it /k/?
>>32152325
>Doesn't congress have a law against military projects costing this much?
Congressional interference is the reason they wound up costing so much.
>>32152325
They're just under $4b apiece. That 7.5 number is because the original R&D budget was supposed to be spread over 50 ships, but now it's only spread over 3. If they were to go back to the original number ordered, they would "only" cost $4.2b each. If they were to cancel the contract now with only one ship built, it would cost $28b.
>>32152370
Oops, I think I did my math wrong. I think that's $14b for one, $9B each for two, $7.5b each for three, and $4.4b each for 50.
I miss running around in body armor and NVGs and carrying a rifle. I miss the action and sense of adventure. I miss the friendship of people I don't have to change my language or humor around and can just be myself. I miss joking about death and killing myself and killing others and people getting that it's all jokes.
I haven't even been out of the Army 6 month yet but I just can't get over it. I hated the military, but I liked being a soldier.
I don't want to go back in, but I want to be a soldier again. I need the feeling in my life again
Try to get a hobby with most members are veteran's
>>32152317
Most vets are shit tier people and aren't fun to be around outside of the actual military where everyone is a shitty human.
There's a reason most vets have a bad rap and people don't like them. They bring it upon themselves for being entitled assholes.
>>32152281
We have to make a nation for soldiers.
You all use suppressed home defense guns, right? You don't actually think it's a good idea to shoot a firearm indoors without suppression or ear protection, right?
WHAT?
>>32152099
If you're life is in danger do you really give a fuck about some loud noises?
Grand Supreme God-King Trump soon will liberate all citizens from form 4 paperwork and we will all enjoy suppressed funs without a twelve month wait on paperwork.
I just have some questions about the subject and thought that the /k/ommandos could help.
1.) What are the pros and cons of each?
2.) What are the best versions/ brands for each?
3.) How much is the going price for one rifle, new in box, all matching parts, etc.
4.) If I were to pick a system to be my first, what do you recommend?
Slavaboos are welcome too.
>>32150982
Is this not a relevant question for /k/?
>>32150962
It's a needless expense that does not reasonably increase performance. Proper firearm cleaning should be done regardless.

Sup, officer or enlisted? If enlisted what rating?
So, why is the Marines so separate from the Navy, despite being a department of the Navy?
What is the modern day point of the Marines? To be a better trained version of the Army?
>>32147795
>better trained
>>32147795
The key is in the name: Marine.
As in, they deploy from marine environments (such as the water) to do battle.
Small history lesson here-
a long time ago when the US was first dipping her toes into the pond of globalization the Marines were, for all intents and purposes, part of the Navy. The government found it was a lot cheaper and more logistically feasible to send troops that could live and land from the Navy's ships instead of having to assemble the Militia or raise a regular Army.
During WW2 the Marines got a shitload of extra bodies to help win the war, and in an effort to retain all that extra government neetbuxx (and to try and cover up the fact that the Marines statistically took an incredibly disproportionate amount of casualties to the actual strategic gain) they created the grand propaganda campaign still used today, to try and draw in public awareness. Nowadays, the Marines are literally too big to fail
>>32148018
But then why do we have Marines in recent times who are walking around in Afghanistan without ever starting from some sort of water to land invasion?
