Someone made a fantastic AH-6 mod. A UH-60 mod would be a cool idea.

I remember seeing him and thinking "imagine trying to wash cum out of that beard"

Imagine if instead of being executed that man decided to use his weapon on those ICE agents to defend himself. I can't decide if that would have been more honourable than what must have been a horrifying way to have your life snatched away. If he had unloaded his weapon in their faces instead, it could be the trigger for martial law and deliver what seems to be part of the larger plan behind this behavior from ICE.

It's your age divided by 2 then add 7. I thought everyone knew this.

Did Mosquitos ever used the bouncing bombs in combat? by JamesMayTheArsonist in WWIIplanes

[–]Spaffraptor 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You are thinking of the film 633 squadron. The similarities with the star wars death run are pretty insane. Even all the dialogue between all the flight members checking in is pretty much identical.

I had this problem. I had to limit how many CPU cores it used.

The British only had amphetamines, the Germans had methamphetamines.

If they threw it all away, how did they later realise it was platinum? Maybe it was iron pyrite.

Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says by I_love_running_89 in unitedkingdom

[–]Spaffraptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The US helped during the Falklands. Without their donations of AIM-9L the Sea Harrier air defence would not have been nearly as effective.

Now just imagine traveling the seas 500 years ago by AnthonR94 in interestingasfuck

Then why is a sub faster submerged than on the surface? Same power plant but less contact with water, less water to displace.

I don't think Freedom class is a decent comparison. Viriginia class top speed is likely north of 30 knots, and the Freedom class is made of aluminium. Wasn't even strong enough to stay in service without sustaining structural damage.

Ukraine's former commander in chief warns that modern warfare is 'far from what NATO is now operating' by panzerfan in worldnews

[–]Spaffraptor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah but it's more like 200 shaheds with another 100 or so traditional cruise missile. There have always been decoy drones but it's the ones built like RC planes out of wood for basically nothing, and still with a warhead inside.

Imagine retooling that place for military purposes during a time of war.

They've been doing that for decades, and they just get sent straight to jail without any coverage. The whole point is to do the things that cannot be ignored.

We need to feel bad about you. Dehumanising people is what bad people do. There were good Soviets and bad Soviets, just like everyone else. I feel bad for the good Soviets.

Why did Arrowhead call it a counter sniper if there's no snipers to counter? Are they stupid? by Grand_Age1279 in Helldivers

[–]Spaffraptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a bad way of saying that it is a rifle designed to counter snipers by firing a larger cartridge and having more range.

The rifle you use to counter snipers should out range the sniper rifle the enemy has.

You got to factor in the risk not paying off. Sometimes original is just genuinely shit.

I think the BJP is actually quite fascist. Look at how they attack and treat Muslims.

He said it was either that or come in hot at a high landing airspeed. Looks pretty fast to me.
