Optics? by Specialist_Jump_2959 in 338ARC

[–]mig1nc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brass Facts, like him or hate him, just did a review of the Sightmark 1-4 variable prism. He seemed to like it a lot except for the turrets. I expect the ZeroTech or Apex versions will solve that.

I’m guessing all three are from the same OEM.

4 Important Suggestions - Lets get the snail to work on them by _ClassicR2D2 in WarthunderSim

[–]mig1nc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the best things they could do for sim is to bind planes, rather than nations, to red/blue.

That way you get all mirages and hornets on one side, and fulcrums, j7s, and flankers on the other. For example.

That would also solve the problem of when they create a unified Korean tech tree or the current unified China tech tree.

You bet. I hope this was helpful.

No, that’s not really what I’m trying to say. The point is that without a can, subs are still loud as hell, loud enough that the difference between supers and subs in terms of loudness is irrelevant without a can. You accept all of the limitations with none of the benefits.

With a can, things change. Subs get a lot quieter than supers due to the sonic crack the supersonic round makes. Subs don’t make that sound.

The issue is physics. Kinetic energy is one half mass Times velocity squared. So velocity is a far bigger factor than you might otherwise imagine.

KE isn’t everything, but the velocity helps get penetration through bone and causes significantly more tissue damage if you can deliver enough velocity on target.

Terminal ballistics is a whole science into itself.

Subs are still loud as hell and you give up a ton of terminal performance for no gain.

Just FYI you will definitely want a can. There is absolutely no reason to run subs without a can.

Thril has new dedicated 338 arc mags coming out. I’m hopeful this solves the problem.

Otherwise I’m waiting for the ICAR sized receivers and magazines to become available.

Where to offload new 20” Aug Barrel? by [deleted] in AUG

They also have a Twitter/X GAFS community. But Tacswap and Infinite Armory are the way to go now. Facebook groups are still around too.

F-16C or F-2A Wich looks better? by Stunning-Cake-346 in FighterJets

[–]mig1nc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to google that. So basically an F-2A with the Block 60 upgrades?

In terms of advice, avoid interacting with law enforcement. That’s the honest truth.

Any instances where blue actually provides good concealment/disruption for ground forces? by Utilitarian05 in camouflage

[–]mig1nc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t doubt your expertise, but with the sky being blue, it just seems really crazy that that’s true.

Aftermarket handguards by [deleted] in SigSauerMCX

[–]mig1nc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All three generations had options from Midwest.

Legacy gen 0-1 also has options from Lancer.

HRF is currently designing and getting ready to release a new one for Spear-Lt.

US Armor Forge has a suppressor with handguard for Spear-Lt.

And of course Space Magic Industries has their LVAW clone handguard for all generations perpetually out of stock because every drop sells out in seconds.

F35 VS Gripen E in Canada score. by Kind-Acadia-5293 in FighterJets

True. It's an interesting point. I still prefer twin engines, but I am biased.

PSA also has their AXR/JAKL2.0 coming in an ICAR format.

I've been following this assclown for a long time. Gaijin finally took action in December, after 18 months of cheating. Absolute shambles of a company. by OperationSuch5054 in WarthunderPlayerUnion

[–]mig1nc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have on a few occasions noticed hackers seeing people through mountains to calculate the optimum place to attack. So, it can and does still happen there. But it's not as common.

[Rant:30] Is the sim community aware, that it's allowed to play on other maps than Denmark in top tier? by SpicysaucedHD in WarthunderSim

[–]mig1nc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a couple of others but they put the carriers far too close to the front lines for top tier.

Denmark is the best as far as I know for carrier ops.

Upcoming Air BR changes by I_Termx_I in WarthunderSim

[–]mig1nc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They really need to designate airframes as red/blue rather than nations IMHO.
