What nationality? My guess is French.
>>29467373
I looked at the French MILES helmet sensors the have two vertical black dots. So I don't think French. Looks like he is wearing wet weather gear over a uniform with MILES sensors over that.
>>29467373
No idea reverse search says its french too but i'm not sure

How good are Chinese planes really? Have they ever been used in combat? How can a country without even a domestic automotive industry let alone aeronautics industry make fighter jets?
>>29467241
Every single thing you just asked and said is incredibly stupid.
>>29467241
their kinda shit, but they will do the job vs countries like north korea, russia or india.
>>29467241
They can't make engines. That's their biggest handicap by far.

People who keep posting these tiny pics will be the first against the wall.
Every time I see games recommended on /k/ it's always PC titles like STALKER and ARMA saturating the lists.
Call me old, call me poor, call me a backwoods hick.
I've never owned a computer that could reliably play games more advanced than emulated SNES titles.
I've never had any luck installing or playing a computer game from a disc.
I don't have an internet connection in my own home.
Even if I could get it to work I'm sure I could never get used to using keyboard and mouse touch pad controls.
tl;dr what are the best /k/ approved console video games?
What console? As far as realistic they aren't too on point but the weapons are nice and the gameplay is fun so I always recommend farcry 3 and 4, additionally the scenery for both is gorgeous
Big Red One

Depends on what I'm eating.
A quick question /k/ on the military tactics of the Napoleonic era.
Was there any specific tactical advantage to that time periods love of huge lines of men standing in front of each other in plain sight and firing? Was it just the gentleman pathos that seemed to dominate the era, as I could never wrap my head around the reason for such tactics. Smaller units using cover, actually going to ground while firing to minimize their silhouette would seem to have been a more advantageous approach. I am really weak when it comes to knowledge of that time period, so I figured maybe someone here could provide a quick and easy answer as this has been bothering me since forever.
The uniforms were bright colors because the smoke of all that black powder tended to make things hard to see, and added to the confusion that already exists in battle conditions.
Being able to maintain control and communications during a battle was well worth it.
>>29466137
Big line o guys is because of weapons available, and gun formations developing out of pike formations
>>29466137
and how would you manage such an army without modern radios?

I never knew this is the fetish i wanted. Pretty neat Milsurp though.
Pics or GTFO

And this, my friend, is why history must be preserved.
>>29466086
Man i cant go posting her pics here, she'd be pissed
What went wrong?
>>29466052
You touched yourself that night.
>>29466052
WTF happened to that poor plane
>>29466052
Nothing. It's just a prototype jet built using cheap off the shelf parts. It's entirely in line with their manufacturing capabilities and if fielded in enough numbers, could cheaply defend their borders. Assuming it can fly, that is, which is a pretty big if.
As far as bitching about things like the dashboard being from a consumer turboprop or the seat looking cheap, it doesn't invalidate the aircraft's military utility.
Is she doing it right?
>>29466033
>she
By definition she can't do anything right beyond making a sandwich
No but it doesn't matter because Mary Sue there can do everything perfectly.
>>29466033
good enough if you're cross dominant.
I was thinking of:
1) Remove wood. replace with plastic.
2) Pistol grip.
3) Rails.
4) Increase magazine size (is this even possible?)
5) Maybe tripod
6) Scope.
>>29466003
so this?
why on earth would you do such a thing to garand?
pic related is a much better way to modernize a wwii rifle
I never really understood that. I get AK 47 is a classic, but there are several significant things Vz 58 beats the AK at. I mean, it was designed to outperform the AK after all.
-short stroke piston- less fouling, easier to reacquire target because of less stuff moving between shots.
-striker fire mechanism-everything is moving in the same direction, driving the recoil straight into the center of your shoulder, another thing making it more manageable despite its compact size
-bolt catch- pretty important feature if you ask me, but more for combat than plinking I admit.
-compact, about half a kg lighter and slightly shorter.
-some people even claim it's more reliable https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QemYI_aWWvM
So why do people buy AKs over it? Is it AKfags going "MUH ULTIMATE REEFLE"? I admit it is a simple and reliable rifle, but we all know it has flaws.
More companies make shit for AKs and it also has acquired a legendary status for reliability.

This.
Alright /k/. I love weapons, you love weapons,thats why we are here.
Since our ancestors first picked up hardened or heavy earthen objects to defend from the predators of old we have been drawn to conquer, explore, and kill. For reasons most likely attributed to our unforgiving planet we as a species have always been at war, and once we conquered the beasts of earth we turned on each other. Over race, ambition, ideas, religion, or pure greed and evil, we have sought to destroy and build. Millions would be sacrificed for the ideas of one, and somtimes one would die for the idea that millions hold dear.
We broke the perceived rules of nature and split the atom for the sole purpose of control through the threat of UN-imaginable destruction.
Through war we created the freedom most of us enjoy, and through war we maintain the greatest civilization the world has ever seen "the west",
The question I pose to you, is where does it end?
Will competition between people's continue until a champion is crowned, and we find the next competitor to step into the ring, or possibly they find us? (
Or does the knowledge we now possess allow us to write the next chapter in the saga of man, without dipping the quill in a well of human blood?
>>29465556
>>The question I pose to you, is where does it end?
Like Mr Bones' Wild Ride, "The ride never ends."
>The question I pose to you, is where does it end?
Tearing the crescent moons off the Hagia Sophia and glassing Mecca.

Armenian Ministry of defense reports on destruction of 3 Azerbaijani tanks, 2 drones & 2 helicopters so far today.
The clashes are going on so I will try to dump new info as soon as it gets confirmed.
