>>
>>31993449

Article sums it up pretty well. It takes so much money to design and produce the shells, and when you reduce the number of Zumwalts from 32 to 3, you need to recomp that loss somehow.

Research is expensive, and someone has to pay for it. You don't expect LHM to say "oh, don't worry, we got the tab this time on the shells for the 29 other ships you didn't build." So of course they mark up the price of the existing shells.

If all 32 were built, the shells would be going for much less. At $80,000 a round, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
>>
>>31993505
Its not just that, they built the tooling and everything, facilities to shit out hundreds of thousands of these rounds, and the USN goes "LOL WE JUST WANT 1K".

That cost does not dissappear.

$800k per round (really a missile) is twice what they actually cost.

You have fallen for a regurgitation of clickbait that took the price of everything LRLAP related in FY2015 and divided it by the 150 rounds that were purchased. And then rounded up.

I do not get the outrage.

Compare it to others. The Russian Kalibr missile costs 1 Mllion dollars per missile, the Zumwalt ammo costs less, has a better quality assurance and is generally considered unstoppable within range.

The Chinese DF-21 does not have the fire to kill ratio that the ammo will get once it begins hitting targets.

All this outrage is just bandwagoning by people who do not know the necessity of companies like Lockheed Martin

I dont see why you right wingers have this malicious idea that higher education is something evil. Why do you think America's best scientists and researchers are all immigrants these days? Why are grad schools flooded with foreigners and have hardly any trueborn Americans attending? Just look at MIT. There's culture of anti-intellectualism that will hurt your population in the long run. A better educated populace is one that is more able to create, innovate, and produce things beneficial to said society.
Lemme dumb it down for you
An uncultured and uneducated fool is more likely to remain uncultured and uneducated and is easier to control and placate. This is your deadweight loss, and that is a representative of the average American currently. A smarter populace is one that can excel in the fields of arts and science. They would create more jobs and research, and make more jets and bombs that you guys like so much.

Probably because the vast majority of domestic college students do not go for STEM fields and instead go for retarded degrees that essentially amount to a certificate saying you were in adult day care for 4 years or have degrees that are only good for perpetuating more and more degrees. You don't have to be right wing to see that
>>
>>31995994
Lel
But seriously, America has some of the best universities in the world. But a majority of students are foreigners, just look at MIT and all you see are chinks at like 70%. The rest are other foreigners and just a few American born students. You know what America's modus operandi has been for the past few decades?
>have amazing universities
>foreigners come in and flood these universities
>usually excel because they have a culture of discipline and hard work, and they are far from home so have little else to do than study (they paid to come all this way, I don't think they're gonna piss their money away)
>contribute a lot to their respective fields
>either they continue studying and working in the US or pack up and go home with their knowledge
If they performed well in university, contributed, and find work (which shouldn't be too hard for them given lack of competition) America snatches them up and naturalizes them or at least gives them residency. They come in and study and stay and benefit from becoming American. But with strict immigration policies, instead of staying in the US, they'll pack up and go home and spread their knowledge back wherever they came from. I don't need to explain to you why this would be disastrous for America. But imagine all these Eastern Europeans and Asians who have just gotten an MIT education going back to use that knowledge in their home countries.

Either America starts educating its populace and having its kids become top performers again, or let the foreigners become Americans and dont let that knowledge fall into American hands.

America won't fall because of a weak military, but because of a dumb populace and of a rival nation that is smarter and more innovative.

>>
>>31996145
>Oh, why doesn't the chink make 10 supercarriers by now then?
That is an economic and time related issue. Because so far, America has been an atteactive country to immigrate to. And all the ones with the knowledge and experience who have been taught the relevant skills were given incentive by the government to stay in America and naturalize. And when they do they have restrictions on going back.
I have plenty of foreign friends that have come to study in the US and ended up working in NASA or DARPA or something. And they were given the chance to become American citizens. When they do, they are given every reason to stay, and if they work with a government agency they aren't even allowed to travel back sometimes.

>Because they don't care what that country is, if that sounds Middle east, that is worth bombing.
Do you want me to explain how stupid that is?

And besides this isnt just a military research issue. A more educated populace will be more able to create progress in all facets of human life, greatly increasing American living standards.

Well, that should be changed, they should be deported back to their shithole countries.

>>31996136
There is no anti-intellectualism, it's a meme propagated by the left who are upset that people have finally figured out that simply having a degree doesn't mean that you're intelligent or even know what you're talking about. The problem stemmed from years of leftists trying to push a cultural marxism agenda while trying to justify it with 'Experts say' and then when you look up whom those supposed experts are, you find that they have degrees in womens studies and other nonsense that has no bearing upon the real world.

>I disagree that one field is necessarily exclusive of the other.

Most people would agree that they don't need a self proclaimed expert to tell them that something is right when they can clearly see that it's wrong.

>Tell me again why they agreed to bomb Agrabah.

Probably why liberals will happily sign petitions supporting the banning of Dihydrogen Monoxide or to Nuke Russia to stay the worlds sole Super power. They're ignorant. To try and claim that ignorance somehow follows political lines is to be intellectually dishonest.
>>
>>31996168
>Time to deport them then, the fuck are these niggas doing in America?
Think of it this way

You have a particular job market that is highly competitive and skilled. Suppose a lot of training is required to enter a job. Employers would typically take a trainee or an intern to train said employee before they start actual work. However, the employer wants to make sure the intern or trainee stays on board after their training so they give incentives or some contractual agreement that the intern would work for 'x' amount of time after they finish their training. Or else, the trainee would have been trained for nothing, the trainee could take their lessons to the employer's competitor and the employer would be poached. This is highly dangerous for the employer.

This is very much the case with our topic.
>>
>>31996214
>simply having a degree doesn't mean that you're intelligent or even know what you're talking about.
That's fine and all but we're not talking about who can win a debate. The point is it's within America's best interest to have a population with more formally educated students to become scientists, researchers, etc.
If you want to argue that universities are Marxist havens that tend to raise shit eating hipsters who pay $200,000 for a degree in women's studies, so be it. But wouldn't you agree the US could do with more physicists and engineers?
>>
>>31996247
The employer does not need them.

They are to be deported and to be replaced by local employees.

That's about it.

I'm sorry man, I'm not anti-working class. I'm with you guys. But the old blue collar factory belt days are over. The working class needs to evolve with current technology. Automation can't do 100% of the work, you will always need a human to watch over. If you want to remain relevant you need to learn the technical skills that will allow you to work with these machines and to further improve upon them.

>>31996359
>As long as he works, as in physical and do not sit on computer all days pretending to work.
See, this is.what I meant by anti-intellectualism. What makes you think that programming and researching on a computer isn't work? Just because he isn't breaking his back shoveling shit and is instead working on a ground breaking piece of software? It's not like he's sitting around wanking to porn all day.

>Not everything in my life is digitally integrated, and no it's not a fucking good reason
You'd be surprised at how much of it is. And even if you live in a farm with no electricity, the rest of the world doesn't. America needs to keep up.

>It just means when the grid comes down, we all go down.

Numbers may be wrong since I'm not sure how to read everything in the books.

In 2015, the army purchased 10,500 Modular Artillery Charge System (MACS) M232A1 for their 155mm canons. It has a unit cost of $363.24. The weight of each M232A1 is 5.85lb.

It's rocket propellant. These are rockets which are fired out of a gun. Remember how it cost $10,000 or so dollars per pound to send things to space? This is a fraction of that cost for a fraction of the range.

Oh, and it's solid fuel, instead of cheaper, more efficient liquid fuel oxidizer mixing, for obvious reasons. That makes it a bit more expensive.
>>
>>31998537
um senpai, that number is including the cost of the launch vehicle along with the cost of things like launch pad rent, etc.

in fact the entire reason the falcon 9 is so important is that it has the capability to have it's lower stage reused, which saves a lot of money. propellant is a large cost but it's not that large in the grand scheme of things.

to use a metaphor: imagine how much it would cost to get a plane ticket or go on an ocean cruise if you had to get an entirely new plane/boat every time. tickets would cost millions.

this is also the reason for the high cost of the ammo, they have to recoup the money they're losing because of the reduced number of zumwalts.

I completely approve of funding LRLAP.

Even if its only half as expensive as a Tomahawk, every LRLAP fired will basically pay for itself because it prevented a Tomahawk launch.

Naval artillery is underrated even with these bloated numbers.

It takes about 30 men in each town/city to destroy the electrical grid in any town/city and cripples it. It is always faster to destroy than to build.

>You're going to bomb the whole electrical grid?
No, just heavy duty power lines. If you hit those the grid will have a massive imbalance and there's a pretty good chance a small section of it will shut down until the line is put back up.

>personal generators
Do personal generators mean shit when most houses don't have them, and most businesses won't be able to continue operating without mains power?

Yeah sure police stations and hospitals will keep on running, but that doesn't really give much help when all businesses are in perpetual blackouts and nobody can access the internet or use their phones if power isn't brought back up after 12 hours or so.

>lmao, I assume you've never seen a nuclear power plant in your life.
I get the feeling he's not talking about hitting power stations, but more parts of the power network. Most substations and so on just have a few guards and a connection to the power utility (who will in some places call the cops or the feds if something goes down). Just pop over and put a few soviet surplus rounds into the thing like those guys in California did.

Oh I believe taking down the ENTIRE electrical grid (or so much of it that the only functional parts of the network are parts that can automatically separate from the entire thing and generate on their own) is possible, it just would be a plot 10x more complicated than 9/11 and would probably be the start of a rebellion, not the work of a lone actor.

Electricity and software don't require a central infrastructure to run. There's no central infrastructure that tells each piece of software in billions of devices if it can or cannot run. There's no central infrastructure that controls all sources of electricity.

well can you give a simple game plan for doing this?

i'm asking this because it's not like every single state generates it's own power and only it's own power, states share electricity. hell, NY state shares power with parts of canada.

how do you plan to do this? knock out the lines going out of base load stations and hope enough circuit breakers trip to wipe out large parts of the power network?

senpai i can't see your logic, it's blatantly obvious they've planned for this beforehand, since it's more or less identical to something like a massive storm in that it destroys transmission equipment. look how quickly power is restored whenever people get wiped out by a hurricane.

I never said you didn't, although considering some of the pilots I've seen, I'd argue that it isn't a major requirement.

You said earlier, that being a pilot makes you a non egghead. Being a (good) pilot requires studying, an understanding of aerodynamics, skill at math, and several other skills that you handwaved as eggheadery. Is being an egghead only for people you don't like?
>The eggheads can do the thinking, we will be doing the realizing, which is what matters.
There wouldn't be shit for you to realize if there was nobody doing thinking.
>Very possible and realistic plan, the only problem is if people are willing to do it or not.
I beg to differ. You're suggesting that somehow a message that's able to be understood by enough people to overwhelm every single power station in the United States and canada won't be intercepted, or leaked to law enforcement, and that you're going to get thousands of people to agree to do this at the same time, against their own interests. "Realistic."

because its fucking hysterical that you think that neil armstrong isn't an egghead when he earned a bachelors in aeronautical engineering and a masters in aerospace engineering. not to mention buzz aldrin earning a doctorate in astronautics from MIT.

But every software does need electricity, and it can be taken away, the national power grid is the key to that.
>Now, you've moved it to "The power grid," "Silicon valley" and "Cities," among other things.
Which is where softwares are most located at.

Neil Amstrong was a fucking sailor as well as a test pilot.

The same for Buzz Aldrin.

I gave you multiple examples. Again, you're the one who's making the claim that there was zero innovation done today in software, and previously made the claim that innovation has come to a complete stop. You have still refused to provide a shred of evidence for your claim.

The national power grid does not control all electricity in the nation, and you completely fail to demonstrate an understanding of that.

you seem to be assuming the national power grid is a single entity that can be taken down by bombing a substation. it's not.

it's a collection of separate subnetworks that peer energy to each other to both drive costs down and save energy in general. if you take one part of it down the other parts will cut off and that will be the extent of the damage.

...Yes, and in the event of the links between said stations and cities being broken the entire network will attempt to self heal.

It's this way so, for example, if an area with a city, a base load power station and a flexible supply station gets a really big order from the city next door for a fuckton of power, that area can just cut off and keep the base load station operating. That saves a LOT of time since base load stations are designed to operate 24/7 and thus they're not designed to be turned on and off a lot.

Americans go to college so they can get out as quickly as possible to make money in the private sector. Immigrants come from socialist hell holes where there is no private sector so they stay on and get advanced degrees making a fraction of the amount of money as their American counter parts.

No, not really. If the economy can not support them then they are not needed. Having a few well funded researchers is much better than having lots of poorly funded researchers. Having a degree is not a net gain unless there is room to accommodate it. Otherwise those people would be much more beneficial contributing to the economy by working a regular job than by draining resources as a student. More educated people with more degrees doesn't mean you will have a larger and better economy. This isn't "anti-intellectualism" but a fact of life.

You seem to be unable to decide between "All the power in a city" and "All electricity." Which is it? How are you going to discharge all the batteries in a city, since you want to stop all those evil softwares.

"Realistic" isn't what I'd use to describe your plan. To recap, you're claiming that you're going to somehow incite thousands of people to suddenly attack their local powerplants at roughly the same time, by posting your manifesto of how educated people (but not the ones you like) are ruining society, and everybody should revert to the stone ages because of it. Assuming that taking the Francis E. Dec route of propaganda actually works for you, you then expect all of these attacks to be successful, and for everybody to enjoy the short period of time they're in a blackout enough to start up a revolution and kill the educated.

As I said earlier, you're like a more retarded Pol Pot or Chairman Mao.
>That's the way we humans are using them.
Your incredibly basic description of two possible ways to generate power, and one way to move it from point A to point B isn't the only way electricity is created or used. I suspect your great plans for an agrarian revolution won't go far if you have no understanding of how electricity works, and how it's used in the United States and Canada.
>My future is controlled technology that exists to aid the people, not to make people depend on them.
Technology doesn't make somebody dependent, that person chooses to be dependent. Your argument is the same as saying that guns cause people to commit mass shootings.
>Or they will, does not matter, what matters is attempt to try.
Please do try, I'm sure the results would be hilarious.
>Never said I'm smarter, nor I need to.

>>
>>32006418
Do you have a single fact to back that up?
>>
>>32006403
My plan is as follows:
Create propaganda to convince people to abandon the current future, where technology jail everyone and force them to be in urban center and live like rats, and choose a better future with neo-agrarian society instead, with people living in far track of land and no city with over 2 millions people.
This plan requires 30 people of every village/town/city to destroy their local power grid in the interim of the same day, to force the entire nation on alert and create a 3-4 days blackout. Without electricity, the city rats would have to move out and experience the countryside, then they have a choice to abandon the cities altogether.

>Technology doesn't make somebody dependent, that person chooses to be dependent.
Then that person is the problem, not technology, and their punishment is to take technology from them.
>You're certainly acting like it.
I do not act like I'm smarter than anyone else.
>>
>>32006424
With how swift urbanization is up and how every people (domestic and foreign) are flocking to the cities soon the cities will become the place where the majority of humans live.

This puts too many eggs in one basket.

Thus it is better to convince humanity of the danger of city/megalopolis now so people can scatter back to the countryside.

Of course he doesn't. His idea of Utopia would certainly leave him for dead once he needs an "egghead" for medicine or because all the people who could distribute enough food for everyone are dead.

Wont ever happen

>>32006457
If no one tries, nothing would ever happen.

The cities are overcrowded, polluted, yet because of convenience, people flock to them.

This must be stopped, for the good of humanity.

What matter is truly infrastructure, if we improve the infrastructure to the villages/town, and get manufacturing jobs back to the country people, there might be still hopes yet.

Your ability to convince people of something is severely lacking, as evidenced by your flailing in this thread.
Without electricity, people would stay home. It wouldn't force a mass exodus from cities.
Technology doesn't "jail" people or force them to live in cities, it's a person's choice to do so.
Once again, good luck co-ordinating that many thousands of people. Additionally, your plan is shit because you're going to be openly saying when this attack is going to happen, and you're giving time for powerplants to prepare for it.
Know who else had a similar retarded plan to somehow incite thousands of people to start a revolution? Charles Manson. If you're willing to risk becoming a degenerate parroting puppet egghead, go look up who he is, and how his plan worked for him in the end.

>>32006443
>This plan requires 30 people of every village/town/city to destroy their local power grid in the interim of the same day,

Kek. Cletus this is how it goes:

>Dumbfucks destroy some of the energy grid
>Fail to cause any actual damage because they are too dumb to figure out how to properly damage them
>Fail to hit the cities because it is distributed and with redundancies
>The police and maybe the SWAT comes in kills or arrests them
>Contractors go in and repair the damage within a day or two
>No one moves back to the farms because it is shit
>Everything goes back to normal

Also fuck your idea of a neo agrarian society. I worked with strawberries farm, it really fucking sucks if it was up to me all this shit would have been completely automated. Because farm work FUCKING SUCKS.

Stay home with what? People only stay in the cities because:
1. Job opportunity.
2. Convenience such as foods, gyms, schools, markets right next to them.
But mostly job opportunity, no electricity, no fucking job, and no convenience either.
>Technology doesn't "jail" people or force them to live in cities, it's a person's choice to do so.
And these people should be in a rough awakening when cities fall.
>Additionally, your plan is shit because you're going to be openly saying when this attack is going to happen, and you're giving time for powerplants to prepare for it.
If the first phase fails, I would do it again, and again, even in jail.

It is just the matter of getting the word out.

>that moment when penetration is so high it just punches clean holes through enemy vessels.

>>32006536
Obviously, you are underestimating people (or maybe I'm overestimating them), but a plan like this would surprise a shitload of people if it's successful.

>Also fuck your idea of a neo agrarian society. I worked with strawberries farm, it really fucking sucks if it was up to me all this shit would have been completely automated. Because farm work FUCKING SUCKS.
Farm work sucks but it's rewarding, you literally see fruits of your labor.
>>
>>32006526
>If nobody else will, I will.

Then, by your own logic, your plan will fail.

To which i salute you, and would ask you to do it, faggot; if only to be rid of your insufferable ass.

>Stay home with what? People only stay in the cities because:
Whatever they have. A three day power outage wouldn't suddenly make everybody in a city flee to rural areas. As I asked earlier, are you autistic? You appear to have a great misunderstanding of how people behave and think.
>And these people should be in a rough awakening when cities fall.
Still doesn't change the fact that technology isn't what makes people rely on technology and live in cities. The deciding factor in that is the person themselves.
>If the first phase fails, I would do it again, and again, even in jail.

And you'd fail over and over again, just like Ted Kaczynski, Charles Manson, and Francis E. Dec.

You act like there's some worldwide mad deadly communist gangster computer god that forces people to use technology and live in urban areas. Much like a SJW claiming that people aren't responsible for committing crimes or being fat, you act like people don't have a personal responsibility for what they do.

Nowadays, people have one day power outage and they are already moving out to the street, imagine 3 or 4 days outage, that will give a message to them.
>Still doesn't change the fact that technology isn't what makes people rely on technology and live in cities. The deciding factor in that is the person themselves.
And these persons who decide to be depended on technology deserve to be punished i.e. getting the technology away from them.

>You act like there's some worldwide mad deadly communist gangster computer god that forces people to use technology and live in urban areas.
Nope, there are just two things:
- job opportunity
- conveniences
This is why they need to be taken away.

You still haven't shown any proof that a simple 3 day power outage would be enough for millions to suddenly leave home and create a new life in rural areas.
>And these persons who decide to be depended on technology deserve to be punished i.e. getting the technology away from them.
People deserve to be punished because technology hurts your feelings? Oh poor you.
>Nope, there are just two things:

This is why they need to be taken away.
Why aren't people allowed to live together in your fantasy for a future? There's more reasons than just those two.

>- job opportunity

So basically every city through history ever. Also what does moving into the middle of the fucking nowhere to farm offers to people other than a shitty way of life?

>Nowadays, people have one day power outage and they are already moving out to the street, imagine 3 or 4 days outage, that will give a message to them.
Moving out to the street for a while isn't the same as moving out of the city

>And these persons who decide to be depended on technology deserve to be punished i.e. getting the technology away from them.

Hello, Aerospace engi here. Unless they're using gold oxide as an oxidizer your navy is being ripped off. Things that go boom are almost never expensive because making chemical that goes boom or FSHHHHH isn't hard to do in an industrialized nation. Most of the cost of this round is probably guidance or le bleeding edge tax meme.

But yeah no, rocket fuel is cheap as fuck compared to what you think it is. Even THE MOST complicated rocket fuel you can possibly use Lox and LH isn't that expensive, it's just about infrastructure, we're talking about solid fuel which should never be that expensive.

>>
>>32008921
if they spent 500 million dollars developing it, they need to price things accordingly to recoup that investment

Theres more to a cannon round than fucking propellant
And yea, it could easily be worth 200 dollars a lb if they developed something new.
>>
>>32007189
Considering how much more we spend on old people than the entire military budget, none would die.
>>
>>32010247

ITS JUST REGULAR SHELL PROPELLANT

Right?!?

Its a rocket assisted shell launched like a conventional shell using NORMAL propellant.

I'm standing by what I said. Even at 500,000 a shell, if each shell fired prevents a Tomahawk launch it is still worth it financially.

This is partly true, but not completely.
There are many jobs in which human manufacturing is necessary, or helps make a better product, though more expensive in many cases.
The issue then becomes how our government subsidizes our workforce. Do we ship the stuff off, then ship it back, losing money in the shipping for the labor, and the subsequent welfare for the lost jobs? Do we import cheap illegal labor and let the government give them food stamps, health care, education, and whatever else there is while not accurately tracking the spending and abusing a system that was not set up for that sort of operation, decreasing the security of human movements, contributing to human smuggling and other illegal activities, and letting them send a significant portion of their wages back to their country of origin?
We could create good vocational, apprenticeship, journeyman sorts of programs. We could use a visa system to fill in the gaps in the unskilled labor market, and we could offer up higher wages with less welfare for those same unskilled labor jobs.
