I feel I'm in moderate shape. Could always improve, but not a weakling. Was thinking a good way to improve my health was to take up a fighting style. After lurking for a while, people seem to really favor grappling on the basis of getting your opponent on the ground right off the bat. But any other suggestions?

Kicking, screaming, urinating on yourself while using pregnant woman as shields

Boxing, MMA, JKD, Muay Thai, and some others I'm forgetting.
Any form of fighting is usually effective as long as it's employed by a tough, fit, and knowledgeable individual.

I am not a tier-0 ninja operator, so I guess take what I type with that in mind. Though at least I'm being up front about it.
I have been in a couple of real fights. Not lifetime fighter melee champ, but hey, more than zero fights in my life.
I have a little bit of background with grappling trianing. But honestly, that has gone out the window in my fights where they quickly turned very sloppy.
I think the absolute number one thing to do to prepare for a hand to hand fight is just to get strong. Lift and get big. Get stronger than anybody likely to try and start some stupid fight against you. Sure in an ideal world for your opponent, they could use some advanced leverage technique and beat you, but most likely if you ever do get in a fight it won't be against somebody who is a master of technique.
I've had somebody play around and think he could fight because he was a non-lifter who was moderately skilled in some fighting style. He tried some leverage technique on me and I was able to just push him over. It might be a dummy fighting style, but pushing down people weaker than you works.
Thoughts on face shields integrated into helmets? While yes goggles do the same thing, perhaps a faceplate with a low ballistic rating and simple dust filters that seal around your face could be useful inna desert/breaching/etc. post examples real or imagined

If China is so confident on the ability to sink carriers and crush US fleets with missile spams, then why are they building their own?
If carriers are such shit, why does every country that can afford to build them produce them?

Force projection. China is saying a lot of imperialistic fuck fuck games in the waters around their country claiming a lot of islands that other countries also claim. To make their claims stick they need to be able to project force across large distances, carriers would let them do that.

So they can bully weaker nations. For as much hate as the US get's everyone sure wants to be like them.

People on /k/ are capable and willing of defending the F-35 program, but could they do the same for the LCS?

The LCS is a completely fine ship
It's just that its main weapon was canceled, the NLOS missile
And the modularity meme has resulted in ships that don't have any working mission components yet
>>
>>28656380
The LCS would have been fine if they hadn't cancelled all its weapons. Modularity means it might be possible to unfuck it, but the Navy buying a dick load of the things in hope of being allowed to unfuck them later is bad policy.
>>
>>28656380
LCS is way more fucked up program to begin with.
While F-35 represents fairly well proven multi-role fighter concept. LCS is supposed to be combination mine sweeper, coastal corvette and frigate. Way less tested concept with way more conflicting requirements for same machine than fighter-bomber could ever have.
In case of LCS they could have gone for separate minesweeper and frigate with some common systems. Really high speed requirement ruins everything other than littoral operations for that ship. It's kinda like if airforce would try to combine fighter with long range strategic bomber and tanker. Not just apples and oranges, but add banana and possibly kiwi into the mix.

Very good question , it is a semi-automatic magazine fed shotgun , which is currently a legal item in many states of the US.
It should be built locally and on sale in the US.

Because the guy who invented it dropped it when US mil didn't buy it, I think.

What are the best pistol caliber carbines on the market? Is there anything similar to the Skorpion Evo? Are mp5 clones solid?

Best would be the Sig MPX.
It is very similar to the Scorpion Evo.
Some MP5 clones are good, most are shit, all are twice the cost of a Scorpion Evo.
Honorable mention to the Beretta CX4, 8/10 gun that doesn't cost a grand.
>>
>>28655058
Not op but also curious. Any experience with sub 2k? Or is it best to grab a Hi Point
>>
>>28655058
MP5 is king, and now you can get license built ones with good warranties. The Zenith Z-5 series is better than the POF at the moment and comes with 3 mags as well as an optics rail.
