kazmeyer posted:Well, it's like you'd normally have infantry screening armor to help prevent that sort of thing, but a) IDF infantry doesn't want to stand around in Gaza in the open and b) the tank's active defense system will turn anybody near it into chutney when it goes off. This is what I thought. I can't imagine the idf infantry want to be anywhere near those things.

Sounds like a tank equipped with a trophy system was designed to fight two kinds of opponents: 1. A peer rival with it's own tanks. 2. An opponent who cannot really harm the tank at all. Whoops!

fatelvis posted:This is what I thought. I can't imagine the idf infantry want to be anywhere near those things. Yep. And that's one reason why you can't always precisely take kill videos at face value; the system firing creates a fireball that can look an awful lot like a direct hit, and it's not like the Palestinian guys are dumb enough to stand around and try to get a really clear shot of the aftermath. Two-stage weapons, staggered firing, or zero-distance attacks can absolutely defeat it, though, and we've seen enough completely hosed tanks to know the $200 homemade RPGs are definitely causing the IDF pain.

I met a guy from Tonga in college and according to him it sucked rear end and is/was then a terrible, nepotistic hell-hole where the ruling family fucks everybody else over constantly. The guy himself had no political agenda that I could figure out except not wanting to live in Tonga ever again. This was all right before the riots in 2006-2008 so maybe it's better now?

Griz posted:- it seems to either have a coverage gap directly above or its sensors are set to ignore small slow quadrotors because there's a bunch of videos of grenades being dropped directly onto tanks China has the world's only APS designed to fire upwards. Literally no one else does it. Because China designed theirs to fight US lofted munitions like TOW-2 and Javelin, whereas everyone else designed theirs to fight RPGs. That said, it wouldn't help against drones, because drones are very, very slow compared to rockets, missiles and tank shells. If you tuned it to fire at things as slow as quadrotors, it would fire at birds, and you'd be out of charges before you even got to combat, even if you didn't kill any friendlies on the way.

The only use case where there isn't a massive flaw w/ the Trophy system seems to be if you're out in a wide open area, where your screens can stand well out of trophy range, and enemies can't sneak up on it. But also your enemy can't fire two rockets subsequently. It doesn't work up close, so you need a screen to prevent ACME tier sabotage, but it's also actively harmful to nearby personnel, so you have to pick between it & infantry outside of the "open kill zone" scenario.

But this isn't that war.

Framing was heavy on the anti-war-ism, to borrow the phrase--his last recorded interview, followed by the reading over footage that transitions from aftermath footage in the first part to Palestinian children playing happily in the second. thanks for posting this. I really had no idea how Japanese TV would be covering this. glad they shared something positive for the movement

Biden statement todayquote:Overnight, Israel launched its largest aerial assault on Gaza since this war began. This massive bombardment used drones and missiles, including missiles with hypersonic capability, to strike cities and civilian infrastructure all across Gaza. Strikes reportedly hit a maternity hospital, a shopping mall, and residential areas—killing innocent people and injuring dozens more. It is a stark reminder to the world that, after nearly two years of this devastating war, Netenyahu's objective remains unchanged. He seeks to obliterate Palestine and subjugate its people. He must be stopped.

Woman is taken hostage, is not killed, is given surgery for a gunshot wound, and is then released: "I went through a Holocaust". https://www.timesofisrael.com/freed-hostage-mia-schem-i-experienced-hell-everyone-in-gaza-is-a-terrorist/ Some absolutely insane quotes quote:“It’s important to me to reveal the real situation about the people who live in Gaza, who they really are, and what I went through there,” she told Channel 13 news. “I experienced hell. Everyone there are terrorists… there are no innocent civilians, not one” quote:There’s a terrorist, who is watching you 24/7, who is raping you with his eyes… an evil stare. quote:Schem said she believes the only reason her captor did not rape her is that “his wife and children were in the next room" quote:She described a moment when one of the youngest children of the family entered her room, “opened a bag of sweets, closed it, came up next to me, opened the bag, closed it and then left.” Schem said she felt only “pure hatred. There are no innocent citizens there" I thought the Holocaust was mostly about mass murder and death camps, and not about being given the stinkeye or a kid not sharing their candy. I guess it's remembered differently in Israel. The article says a lot about how broken the brains of Zionists are. Much of her story is not about what Hamas actually did to her, but about how she can't see her captors as human, and so she imagines all the evil things the Gazans must be thinking and planning to do to her. Since the media are pushing this story, I guess they couldn't find any hostages who were actually subjected to atrocities. Esran has issued a correction as of 04:06 on Dec 31, 2023 |

ikanreed posted:Concern: this assumes the US isn't suicidally short sighted and militaristic. I've been thinking the joint chiefs are doing a version of the dead parrot monty python sketch about US capabilities every day. Biden asks yet again why we aren't bombing Yemen and the joint chiefs are like the number of missiles we have available to shoot is still zero. Absence of missiles is what we have. We want to shoot missiles, but that requires having a number greater than zero to actually shoot them. Where the missile we would shoot at Yemen normally sit a piece of paper says 'sorry sent to ukraine'. A positive number of missiles is something we are pursuing, but we still have a non-positive number. etc
