Who would win between 50 super hornets and 2 Type 45s?
Aren't Super Hornets like 20 years old lmao? Type 45s easily.
>>30938537
Without Growlers in support, the F/A-18E/F will have a very difficult time against a modern naval air defense system.
>>30938537
Scenario?
The Type 45's have to repel 50 super hornets?
The Type 45's are fucked. They couldn't track and fire on that many targets at once, and the Super Hornets can start letting missiles off the rack miles out.
The Super Hornets would take moderate losses however.
>World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War (2006) is an apocalyptic horror novel by Max Brooks. The novel is a collection of individual accounts narrated by an agent of the United Nations Postwar Commission, following the devastating global conflict against the zombie plague. Other passages record a decade-long desperate struggle, as experienced by people of various nationalities. The personal accounts also describe the resulting social, political, religious, and environmental changes.
As well as complete and utter ignorance of just about anything related to military tactics or equipment.
>World War Z is a follow-up to Brooks' "survival manual" The Zombie Survival Guide (2003), but its tone is much more serious.
Filled with all sorts of idiotic fuddlore which also leaks into this book.
>Brooks used World War Z to comment on government ineptitude and American isolationism, while also examining survivalism and uncertainty.
As well helping market stupid accessories to gullible people by painting them green and putting biohazard symbols on them. It only speaks to the sad state of many survivalist types that the Zombie Hunters forums aren't the most cringeworthy survivalist community.
Now let's get cracking on the real meat here: the book itself.

>[Xolelwa Azania greets me at his writing desk, inviting me to switch places with him so I can enjoy the cool ocean breeze from his window. He apologizes for the “mess” and insists on clearing the notes off his desk before we continue. Mister Azania is halfway through his third volume of Rainbow Fist: South Africa at War. This volume happens to be about the subject we are discussing, the turning point against the living dead, the moment when his country pulled itself back from the brink.]
At least in this retarded timeline, the South Africans still operate hard.
>Dispassionate, a rather mundane word to describe one of history’s most controversial figures. Some revere him as a savior, some revile him as a monster, but if you ever met Paul Redeker, ever discussed his views of the world and the problems, or more importantly, the solutions to the problems that plague the world, probably the one word that would always cling to your impression of the man is dispassionate.
You have to be pretty callous if your idea of fighting zombies is massed infantry standing shoulder to shoulder with fudd rifles tbqh fampai. I jest but the actual plan is somewhat more sinister.
>>30938187
>Paul always believed, well, perhaps not always, but at least in his adult life, that humanity’s one fundamental flaw was emotion. He used to say that the heart should only exist to pump blood to the brain, that anything else was a waste of time and energy. His papers from university, all dealing with alternate “solutions” to historical, societal quandaries, were what first brought him to the attention of the apartheid government. Many psychobiographers have tried to label him a racist, but, in his own words, “racism is a regrettable by-product of irrational emotion.” ... Redeker believed both love and hate to be irrelevant. To him, they were “impediments of the human condition,” and, in his words again, “imagine what could be accomplished if the human race would only shed its humanity.” Evil? Most would call it that, while others, particularly that small cadre in the center of Pretoria’s power, believed it to be “an invaluable source of liberated intellect."
I mean sure, he might have condemned millions to die, but at least he's not racist.
>Redeker believed that to try to protect everyone would stretch the government’s resources to the breaking point, thus dooming the entire population... Redeker had even gone so far as to calculate who should be “brought aboard.” He included income, IQ, fertility, an entire checklist of “desirable qualities,” including the subject’s location to a potential crisis zone. “The first casualty of the conflict must be our own sentimentality” was the closing statement for his proposal, “for its survival will mean our destruction."
Basically his plan is to have most of population that can be saved holed up in one fortified location. The grisly part of his plan is that you keep isolated pockets of survivors in abandoned zones as a distraction. Sure, you might resupply them, but they are expendable.
>>30938261
>Within minutes they were on a helicopter for Kimberley, the very underground base where Redeker had first written Orange Eighty-Four. He was ushered into a meeting of the president’s surviving cabinet, where his report was read aloud to the room. You should have heard the uproar, with no voice louder than the defense minister’s. He was a Zulu, a ferocious man who’d rather be fighting in the streets than cowering in a bunker.
>The vice president was more concerned about public relations. He didn’t want to imagine what his backside would be worth if news of this plan ever leaked to the population.
>The president looked almost personally insulted by Redeker. He physically grabbed the lapels of the safety and security minister and demanded why in hell he brought him this demented apartheid war criminal.
As it turns out, the person that called for this Redeker guy to come up with the plan was none other than Nelson Mandela.
I feel like this is supposed to evoke various scenes from the War Room in Strangelove, but it falls flat.

Is it legal to bubba an SKS to accept AK mags?
muh 54 tula from Cabellas North Edmonton
>>30937629
Yeah, but the AK mags still need to be pinned to 5. Kodiak Defense has a few of these (sold as SKS-KD) that they've altered themselves, and the SKS-D was actually built to do this, though they usually run for about $500.
Detroit anon here again. My van got broken into last night and nothing of importance was stolen, but they found a box of .38 spl shells. Now I'm worried that they'll come back because they know I have guns. Am I overthinking this situation??
>>30937219
>Am I overthinking this situation?
No.
Also what can I do to ensure they don't get stolen by dequan??
You can buy one of those cheap motion detector alarms in the hope that that scares off the burglar before they steal your shit.
You can get that 3M window reinforcement shit.
Really though, I'd just try and think of a way to hide my valuable shit effectively.
Maybe a false bottom to a cabinet or a space behind the drywall.

I'm quite amazed that IFF WP is truly the best of the best. (Because as we all know, jealously is unhappy admiration.) How the fuck did these self-righteous sheboons-by-coiche pass the screening?
I'd say that if they are really into that blakk powah only blakk lilfhs mattah, then they are racists. And then they aren't fit to defend the US at all.
Yeah, if there's an all-out war, everyone with at least a pulse will be fit for duty. There's your trench, please die with dignity.
But there is no all-out war against the US. They can afford the luxury to stomp out ideologues.
Fuck! Let's say it right out. Me, a european potbellied male at 40 is more worth than them and more fit to be a cadet than them. Class of 2021, anyone?

Why do americans actually believe this?
>>30936093
That move is all about getting medical first responders into mass casualty situations before the victims are all dead. If the police spend 4 hours looking for other shooters that don't exist, while the victims lay there bleeding, that translates to a lot of dead innocents.
>>30936126
Why not just have the EMTs, who are already bogged down with tons of equipment, be escorted by police?

i know the rules so i wont say.
What are the things you have become accustomed or numbed to when it's either related with your hobby of guns or just yourself in general?
For me I giving a shit about politicians and the gun scare tactics that they use on people and how people make the same extreme accounts that "were gonna lose our guns tonight and martial law is gonna be enacted!"
The same shit I have been hearing for over twenty years and I still have my guns and the politicians are just as loud as ever and the liberals are just as annoying as ever.
>>30935812
> .02 cents have been deposited in your account.
The reason we haven't faced an Australia style ban and seizure is because people have fought political battles and organized to protect the constitution.
I grown accustomed to the fact that pain isn't much to worry or be concerned about.
Yeah getting stabbed or being shot or getting your skin graded off is horrifying but what I am talking about is small pains like the garand thumb and the hornets stings.
Like this long time ago I kept hearing about how fire ant stings are the most unbearable pain to go through that it feels like actual fire is on your skin.
Well I wanted to see if it was true myself so I went out my backyard where there was a large mound of fire ants and I literally put my entire arm in the mound and shook them up a bit to get them awake.
Of course I had to flick off a few that got up to my shoulder but i kept my entire hand and arm in the fire ant hill for about ten minutes and guess what?
It wasn't that bad I mean hell the pain wasn't nothing more than just hard pinching everywhere and by the time I got done I brushed them off of my arm and yes it was blistering with sting marks and a day later the pain grew worse but it wasn't unbearable.
As a matter of fact it was alright for me really and I will admit I did had fun popping the white zit like sting marks on my arm especially when I go to bite them one at a time but it wasn't bad at all.
I don't understand where the idea that a fire ant sting is some ungodly horrible pain bringer come from but it has been years ago thats for sure and it's pathetic when I see guys can't even hold their hands on the anthill for more than two minutes when I did it for a full ten minutes without flinching.
I guess I'm just not sensitive to pain like others are.
