like, sponsoring coups, invading on flimsy pretenses or installing a compliant puppet to help you loot/fortify somewhere outside the imperial core is a well-documented historical trend. for the stereotypical example go back to the roman republic starting a defensive war every decade until they ran most of Europe, getting into dumb slapfights over Armenia and spending most of the official imperial era bleeding itself dry in pointless desert wars in the Middle East

If you don't like cops so much why not become one yourself? It's not like it takes any effort or qualifications to do so.

China is not funding independent movements in California, Hawaii, Texas etc, not even any factions in Mexico. Not any Indian nations in tgd US. China's economy is already bigger than the US in ppp term. You argument is basically China will do what US does when its number 1, which is exactly the argument of the Washington blob.

It is interesting though initially the issue was suppose to be top-attack ATGMs and when it turned out that wasn't that much of an issue, it became drones.

BrotherJayne posted:I mean, they're still an issue, when they're available. ATGMs are a big issue, it is just particularly the Javelin actually didn't perform as expected. The big issue for the Russians was tripod mounted Ukrainian-made ATGMs which had much heavier or tandem warheads. The Javelin when attempting a top attack mode usually just hit the top of the sides of the turret, and it generally has a small warhead for an ATGM otherwise. It isn't ideal. The NLAW is even smaller. They could theoretically still do damage close range if targeting a specific point on a tank, but they also have a minimum distance as well (there are shots of frustrated Ukrainian soldiers fighting with it). Hamas usually when they confront Israeli tanks they hit them with pretty huge HE/thermobartic warheads on their RPGs, and they come in extreme close range to target a specific point on the tank. Drones are generally a much bigger issue. Ardennes has issued a correction as of 10:08 on Apr 19, 2024 |

Given the rumored failure rates on the javelin, there is clearly something wrong with the attack profile or guidance or something.

BrotherJayne posted:Given the rumored failure rates on the javelin, there is clearly something wrong with the attack profile or guidance or something. I think it is an idea that looked cool at presentations but in practice it just doesn't really work as intended specially since you are usually dealing with a moving target. Also, you pretty much have to have everything lined up perfectly to get around ERA and the upper turret armor. Also, yeah, the batteries and charging etc are just more impediments and complications. Also, just both the Javelin and NLAW are just pretty awkward to fire versus just an RPG (a Javelin is 49 pounds ready to fire). It is true it lighter than a tripod mounted system but usually that is also going to be more stable and able to fire a more advanced/heavier warhead. I do think the Russians do still fear Ukrainian ATGMs to a degree but at the same time they clearly also have been much more aggressive with their armor recently.

And you have to lock it on, and additionally it decides where it's going to try to hit (being self guided and lacking and straight ballistic attack profile)
