How close does an Abraham have to be to another Abraham to penetrate its front armour and destroy it.
For the purposes of evaluation assume that both tanks are identical M1A2SEP
At what range does the M829A4 round fail to penetrate its target ?
At what range does the armour of the Abraham the fail to protect its crew?
This is a serious thread.

okay
While the SAA with Russian support achieved a great victory in Palmyra, American trained Iraqi forces have been French'ed by a handful of ISIS fighters once again. And an US Marine had to pay the price for it.

>After a U.S. Marine was killed defending a position abandoned by Iraqi troops, they were supposed to have toughened up. … Nope.
>TEL REEM, Iraq – At first, Iraqi soldiers involved in an operation to capture villages close to Mosul on Friday were in good spirits. “Allah Akbar,” Arabic for “God is Great,” they shouted after they hit an alleged Islamic State (ISIS) suicide bomber with US-provided mortars. But just one hour later many of them fled, fearing ISIS would strike back.
Why are American trained dogs so bad?
>Worthless NCOs
>Worthless officers with no real power
>Poorly trained soldiers
>No morale or interest in actually fighting
SAA grunts aren't exactly exceptional either, but atleast they have a functional officer core and certain "special force" groups that are actually combat effective, like the Tigers or Cheetahs and whatnot.
Fuck it. Why are we even bombing outside of Kurdish areas? These Arab shitskins clearly don't want their country back. Just support an independent Kurdistan.
>>29399522
aren't there confirmed russian deaths? isn't the fact that Russia had to hold the SAA's hand to take a tiny city in the middle of nowhere the problem? isn't the problem that the SAA lost 80% of the country and so 10s of thousands of iranian, lebanese and iraqi militias had to come in to help?
Heck, who lost palmyra in a few days? who lost idlib? morek? raqqa? etc...........
the fact the SAA had to get a huge ceasefire and move thousands of men from many fronts to take palmyra na then still necessitating russian support while having total air superiority highlights the fact that russia has a done a shit job in syria too.
how does the AK12 compare to other AK's as a canadafag i cant own any ak variants
Its just an AK74m with rails, a bolt hold open and a Galil-style selector. Mechanically, its about the same gun.
>>29399399
So it's a Galil.
>>29399399
don't listen to this guy
the fire selector is more Tantal than Galil
and the gun is not a AK-74M with rail either
the bolt and bolt carrier are modified and ect
What's the best way to make a revolver or a pistol untraceable?
Can the gun still be traced even if I file all of the serial numbers on the exterior?
Nice try ATF

>An NSA document states that China obtained more than 50 terabytes—a huge amount of data—from U.S. defense and government networks, including the F-35 radar and engine secrets. The data included numbers and types of F-35 radar modules, and detailed engine schematics for the Lockheed Martin aircraft.
>Chinese cyber spies also obtained export-restricted data through defense industrial espionage on the B-2 bomber, F-22, F-35, Space-based Laser, and other weapons.
>The operation first gained access to some 630,000 Boeing computer files on the C-17 military transport aircraft technology in early 2009. The C-17 is the U.S. military’s main cargo aircraft. The data included details on the aircraft’s onboard computer.
>Other stolen files included data on the F-22 and F-35 aircraft, the military’s most advanced radar-evading stealth fighter jets.
>The F-22 data included details of an unspecified “training component” on the stealth jet used to launch missiles.
>Other stolen data stolen by the Chinese spies included an unspecified “advanced United States military project” that the three men were attempting to steal blueprints and testing data.
According to an FBI agent writing in the criminal complaint, Noel A. Freeman, a report by the spies stated that the stolen data would “allow us to rapidly catch up with U.S. levels” and will allow China to “stand easily on the giant’s shoulders.”

Steps to keep classified material safe:
1. Don't hire foreign nationals
2. Fire employees that marry foreign nationals
3. Don't have shit IT
Is there a better gun channel than forgotten weapons?
>>29398808
Pretty much any gun channel unfortunately.
I really wanted to like forgotten weapons, and I did for a while.

But no seriously, examples?
I'm Scandinavian, and for obvious reasons I want a home defense weapon. Now, sadly I only have a license for bladed weapons. I'm looking for a weapon that is intimidating, the kind that would deter any intruders who are only armed with knives or sun themselves, since I don't want to kill anyone. What would look best in the hands of any big, burly Scandinavian? A sword? Axe? Ideas, please.
>>29398757
Knives or such*

Polish /k/ommandos, why is your government not funding this? Why are we not seeing a hundred Polish tanks charging at the enemies?
Also general Polish weapons thread where we try work out why the Poles are so obsessed with futuristic weapons.
>>29398483
is that Radom factory still "coming soon" to Texas or is that finally dead?
>>29398500
So far they're bussy making MSBS for Polish army, they recently singed a deal to produce ceremonial version of the MSBS for the representive guard.
>>29398483
Does that design have a point or is it just trying to look futuristic for the sake of it?
Why french want to replace their kick ass Famas with that aweful aussie bullpup f90 rifle?
What, exactly, is the problem with the f90?
>>29398137
Have you ever been in the same room as a FAMAS?
>>29398146
It's not french rifle also it seems to be not a big upgrate
You have $1000.00 to buy a new gun. What do you get?
>>29397883
Man I wouldn't mind your pic related because the inner Freeman in me needs it.
Probably a Webley metropolitan police model in .450 adams
I like revolvers
Probably 2 Peacemakers or any other revolver
Preferably of armed robbers getting BTFO but anything is good.

What are the pros and cons to joining a PMC?
Which ones are the best?
Which ones are the worst?
Should I join a PMC over the Military?
Pros
Money
Cons
Equipment, protection, I think CAS
>>29397484
Join the Military gain Exp learn common lingo/have an idea of what the hell you are doing then if you want to play PMC go for it.
>>29397484
If you're asking on /k/, you are not PMC material.
>went shooting yesterday for the very first time in my life
>instructor told me to keep both of my eyes open
>couldnt hit shit, i wouldve done better blindfolded
>had to finish with one of my eyes closed
How do you do it /k/?
>>29397107
>>29397107
your instructor is a dumbass
the only people who train to shoot with both eyes open are tacticool faggots who think they are going to get in a firefight where their eye gets shot out
just look down the sight like a normal person if it gets shots on target better

None, guns and other forms of hard evidence are for my employees to touch. My fingerprints are staying far away from them.
Why hasn't someone made a successor to this rifle?
