Are snipers (not designated marksmen) still relevant now that we have drones?
>>
>>28272118
Yeah, for situations where you'd want no/little collateral damage

>implying we care about collateral damage anyway
>>

That's an odd way to spell "FUCKING TRAITOR"

More Irish fight for the UK than for Ireland so technically traitors are the majority which would make the loyalists the traitors

I get it, muzzle down in aircraft. I know the AIs that the Brits use a braked, but not being able to see it and just imagining a precision rifle with its crown on the deck makes my eye twitch.
