How do we weaponize the air?
Air bullets?
well, they invented gas masks for a reason...
>>31831109
Poison gas masks to convert air to poison?
>>31831112
now you're thinking, do air drops of contaminated gas mask filters over your conflict area
>>31831114
If we drop poison or they do it'll cancel out the poison masks though. There must be a better way
Theoretically, if we have enough guys blowing against the enemy lines the breeze could whip up a dustdevil or even a tornado by my calculations. The real question is when to deploy such tactics.
>>31831106
By removing it
>>31831106
Facefuck OP so he can't breathe.
>>31831143
>guys blowing
wrong kind of weaponizing
Air guns
>>31831106
Set it on fire.
>>31831159
Guns from air?
I've heard about a kind of trooper used to land ont he enemy called an air trooper. Are they considered an air weapon?
What if we get a tank but instead of an engine we put a big sail on it.
Then we get a few guys to start blowing trough straws to make the dam. Thing move.
We will have more room for ammo and we can install a slice rack. When ever we need to fire a shell have all the guys sneeze into the same starw

Biological and chemical weapons

War just got deadlier
>>31831106
Global warming
>>31831106
Carry on burning everything we can so carbon dioxide/monoxide, kills everything real deader
>>31831279
Our guys will need some of that air so we should hide some in balloons or large shipping containers for when we are just about done burning the enemy airs.
>>31831106
Can't find it now but I once saw a thing about how we can basically make a gun that uses a chemical reaction inside of it (something with oxygen, IIRC) and then it sends the sound towards the enemy. Basically it kills them by being so loud it ruptures organs and stuff.
Nuke it with Nitrogen
>>31831106
Isn't every explosion ever weaponized air? It's a shockwave of air that hits you and kills you, or a shockwave of air that carries shrapnel that hits you and kills you.
>>31831297
You've got airs in nitrogens but you burn up valuable nitrons doing so. Command would be up our ass if they saw us wasting resources like that.
>>31831123
Wat
>>31831106
Add the right amount of vaporized fuel to it, ignite and you've really got something.
>>31831106
Superheat it.
>>31831106
Didn't the kraut had "vortex guns", "sonic cannons" and even a real "air bullet" or something.
The sources, where I read this, aren't in english and I read them years ago but still... with Kraut space magic you never know.
>>31831106
By shooting bullits through it
>>31831106
how can air weaponize us?
>>31831534
>>31831534
It already has. Look around at the weapons we've created, the wars we've fought. And the one common factor among us?
We breathe air.
Air made us into its own arsenal long ago.

Simple science
Those LRAD things weaponize air, supposedly non-lethal though.

newfags don't know about fuel-air bomb
>>31832062
Talk to me when you have a lethal option.
>>31831106
We construct a giant vacuum, place it in orbit over the planet, and take AWAY all of the air!
>>31832281
>putting a giant vaccum inside a vacuum
shigidy
>>31832329
>>31832281
>>31832281
If we have a large enough bag we could also get the air the vacuum and use the double vacuum effect seen when you put a bag in a bag to detonate the trapped air in a high air explosion.
>>31832132
Yes we do
create an exothermic reaction and use the air to fuel it, crazy shit

Isn't that the plot of the film Spaceballs?
>>31833748
I don't really think Spaceballs had a plot
>>31833792
Good point, i take it back, haha
>>31831106
Make the air 100% oxygen and shoot a laser at it. The explosion will burn everyone and their lungs while they are still alive.
At least that is what they did in the book Red Mars.
>>31831583
So the question we would be asking is, how do we rebel against the air? How do we fight that which is categorically immune to bullets and traditional weapons?
use its expanding/compressing properties to propel metal projectiles with the help of explosives
The atmosphere is mostly nitrogen and oxygen...
I looked into conceptualising an engine that used the atmosphere as fuel but sadly I couldn't find anything economical that reacts with nitrogen.
What if we put ants in it?

>>31831905
Oberst,
Anyone remember these things?
What if we could make them stronger or more effective? Just blow the enemy away?
>>31833748
Yes, but do you know the password?
>>31836881
like a longer chamber to capture more air?
or a smaller bore=higher velocity=amour piercing air?
>>31837233

>>31831106
Put ants in it.
>>31837258
A large and wide chamber bottlenecked into a small bore should do it. Could be AA as well really.

That's amazing, I've got the same combination on my luggage!

30K+ psi air canister air rifles
Barrel to canister ratio of 6:1
Single shot though and requires industrial compressor to refill.
Currently trying to figure out how to make an air compressor out of car parts for apocalypse countermeasures.
30K+ psi rated valves is also something I'm researching along with ways to open the valves quickly ,considering seals which break under high pressure at certain temperatures for blast caps among other things>>31831106
Force your enemy to breathe it for 75-90 years
