The issue wasn’t just a turret but a tall one, and then had ATGMs that had to be reloaded manually on the side of it.

Frosted Flake posted:True story, the reason it diminished in the Second World War was, I suppose one part, the shift away from German stereoscopic rangefinders to radar, but also (imo chiefly) because the cost of hiring artists to design paint schemes and the labour cost of applying them was high. And instead we have an ugly rusty navy. smh

Because gently caress bradleys.

the Bradley happened because everyone panicked about the BMP it's tiny low pressure gun could kill tanks and that was cheating. Then the west was all 'how can we make this expensive'.

I've only ever criticism of it that "nature doesn't look like that" or something similar, which intuitively means it's really effective at camouflaging people, but I don't know if that's simply a knee-jerk, "common sense" reaction The is definitely no advantage whatsoever to base it around a regular square grid of pixels. That is pure CoD technobranding

just give every soldier a radio that connects directly to a strike fighter that is attached to him and only him. When he see's an enemy he calls in the strike fighter and they drop a 2000lb bomb and whatever, a single guy, a bus, a hospital. He doesn't even need a gun. Everyman a forward air controller.

fanfic insert posted:Swedish state broadcaster has been going crazy about identifying spying operations, posting their own "investigations" about Chinese owned companies insinuating they share technologies with china, eventually turning over lists to security police and them going "hmm yes troubling indeed". Like the article was insinuating the leadership of loving Volvo was in cahoots and responding to some insidious party member indoctrination board, with the whole thing being that Chinese national security law that brought the Alibaba group into compliance with regulations. But because it uses language that can be translated insidiously it means The Party has agents everywhere and you cannot tell apart private and government ownership etc etc. It'd be hilarious in its deragement if it wasn't so maddening. The background radiation of political sinophobia in Sweden can be insane, lots of people thinking it's obvious common sense that it's the reincarnation of Nazi Germany that must be opposed at every turn

ACUs were terrible, they faded extremely quickly, they stained very easily, they didnt fit in anywhere that wasnt a grey hellscape. The new OCPs were much better
