/AKM/ - Guns, weapons and the art of war.

>>5389
I’m sick of seeing the ak family fucking everywhere man. I’d rather just take a modernized Dane gun or another g3 variant over seeing that type of gun spammed in every god damn conflict.

so you dont like AK47?

>>5391
I’m just tired of seeing it and its variants everywhere. Also I just hate the fact that there are still Aks being made out of wood.

Oh ok, thats how life works.

>>5383
If you call people living in bunkers to be safe from drones as siege warfare then maybe.

>>5386
Sorry for the ancient reply, but if that’s true, then wouldn’t handheld guns become irreplaceable? The problem with most drones, heavy weapons, and vehicles is the issue with size. Guns are generally compact, and can be used basically anywhere. Those two properties would make any form of future warfare perfect for guns to dominate in all conflicts.

Using plows mounted on tanks and combat earthmovers, the U.S. Army division that broke through Saddam Hussein’s defensive front line buried thousands of Iraqi soldiers–some still alive and firing their weapons–in more than 70 miles of trenches, according to U.S. Army officials.

In the first two days of ground fighting in Operation Desert Storm, three brigades of the 1st Mechanized Infantry Division–”The Big Red One”–used the tactic to destroy trenches and bunkers being defended by more than 8,000 Iraqi soldiers, according to division estimates.

While 2,000 surrendered, Iraqi dead and wounded as well as defiant soldiers still firing their weapons were buried beneath tons of sand, according to participants in the carefully planned and rehearsed assault.

“Once we went through there, other than the ones who surrendered, there wasn’t anybody left,” said Capt. Bennie Williams, who was awarded the Silver Star for his role in the assault.

“This is war. This isn’t a pickup basketball game,” the official said.

Not a single American was killed during the attack on Feb. 24-25 near the tip of the diamond-shaped neutral zone that straddles the border between Saudi Arabia and Iraq. No Iraqi body count was possible after the assault.

“For all I know, we could have killed thousands,” said Col. Anthony Moreno, commander of the 2nd Brigade, which led the assault on the heaviest defenses. A thinner line of trenches on Moreno’s left flank was attacked by the 1st Brigade, commanded by Col. Lon Maggart. Maggart estimated that his force buried about 650 Iraqi soldiers.

>non-lethal

bold of you to assume the moment you threat with non lethal violence they won't resort to lethal violence and then make a day with a case of how it was a "patriot exercising self defense against those antifa terrorists"

What you want is a "handheld struggle ender"
or like we like to call it down here a "farm knife" but what we're thinking is "cuchillo saca tripas" (gutting knife)

heard you can get a couple used ones on ebay and shit.
if you know how to hit a gut shot fight's over before anyone knows because what you're doing is quite literally hooking someone's innards inside out.

heard you can get one at mexican "hood" stores
but if you can't find one cus they are a bit difficult to come by (which is why i'm forging mine)
you can just go for the "csgo kiddie" version the karambit which i'm convinced you can get quite literally anywhere.
not even half as devastating but you can get a couple good cuts to come out on top anyway.

The Wasp non-lethal pistol is used in Russia.

Taoe sparklers to bottles with a screw cap, that will make it storable.For thermobarics, flashpowder squib taped to plastic bottle. Put matchheads on the fuse and tape a striker pad to your glove or wear it as a necklace so you can just strike them without lighters.
>>1741
Make a simple large firecracker of a smaller diameter than a toilet paper tube, pit it in and fill the gap with pieces of tire or other hard rubber. Again, matches on fuse, strike, throw and theres a homemeade stingball.

I may or may not have one buried somewhere. The pepper blanks need a special license but if you have street connections will get you far. The guns will be confiscated if found, even though you can buy them without a license. Weird country, weird laws.

You can make battery powered one shot pistols with a piece of curved pipe. Loaded with rock salt. Easy to conceal and only a misdemeanor if discovered. If you are doing a funny ticking clock thing only do a small cardboard tube charge and use it to blow a box filled with bags or baloons of red paint. And always remember. Fascist clubs and cars arent immune to a plastic gas bottle tied to a flare, made in a sterile room with full surgical protection. The window gets smashed with a rock and the device is thrown in, the thrower runs several blocks while constantly making turns and shortccuts, the outer layer of winter clothing is taken of and thrown into a pre-placed plastic tub of bleach, and the thrower then blends in and goes home. Glives over gloves will block gunshot residue and they are discarded on the spot because they dont have dna and have only been touched by another glove. Everything prepared is cleaned with bleach and never touched with bare hands. The throwers hair is tucked under a swimming cap so no hairs are left. Shoes used are cheap and are burned or discarded far away after the action. Touch dna, fingerprints,hair,shoeprints all exist. All of this is educational and whoever follows it is a fool that risks jail and other peoples safety. Be careful of what you decide to listen to on the internet. All of those actions are illegal and should never be performed.

>The ruskies did it
Not really.

TBQH the main problem with it is just weight. At least concerning the modern battlefield, weight is by far one of the biggest concerned of any major military. Otherwise, its fine like 90% of all rifles in service of all countries.

>>5343
is it caseless? no? then I don't care

>>5374
Well that’s going to be hard to fix. The average marine in the 2000s used to carry over 200+ 5.56 rounds. The idea of bumping up the calibre is definetly going to cause some issues with ammo capacities. The gun may be able to penetrate some armours, but the limitations the weapon puts on firepower and costs are apparent.

>>5375
true and factual

>>5287
'always' is kind of an overstatement, plenty of people get shot and die instantly, even if not in the head, you can get heart shot, or just have too many holes/too big and die of shock

>>5288
If you hit the hindbrain, then yes, the shot will immediately force someone to lose consciousness. However, what that guy said was right.

You ever seen when cops will block ambulances from someone they shot for 'security' reasons for several hours while holding back the screaming family of the victim outside the police line while they bleed out in the street. Reminds me a lot of the aircraft carrier off the coast of Palestine.

All you teenage tankies will by CRYING when this new weapon turns the tide in favor of Ukraine and the Ukrainian Armed Forces liberate Donbass and Crimea from the Ruzzians and F-16s fly over the Kremlin!

So in the context of ukraine receiving some F16, I was thinking about how air defence has progressed enough that modern jets have kinda become overkill (and even worse, overpriced) for the task they can actually accomplish without being shot down, namely, being launch platform for long range missiles and doing anti recon/suicide drone patrol duty (like seen in the iran demonstration attack against israel).
For these task, using a full blown, state of the art, 5th gen stealth jet airplane is completely unnecessary and a waste of resources. A ww2 style fighter would do the job just as well for a fraction of the price.

And indeed, ukrainian seem to have apparently used an old yak 52 training plane for shooting down drones with great success. So much that russia apparently shot an iskander at it.
Given that you can buy a yak for around 50.000€ and an iskander is estimated at around 3.000.000$, I think theres a lot of potential in going back to cheap non jet aircrafts for many tasks.

>ukrainian seem to have apparently used an old yak 52 training plane for shooting down drones with great success.
>forbes
LMAO no. Russia shot down those several times. Jet fighters are needed, as are slower low-tech aircraft, as are SAMs. This is what combined warfare is. The USSR leaned heavily on air-defenses and made the best in the world, but it still had a significant aircraft fleet, because air defenses alone are not getting the job done. Drones have vulnerabilities, and low-tech strike aircraft are niche.
>For these task, using a full blown, state of the art, 5th gen stealth jet airplane is completely unnecessary and a waste of resources.
True, which is why the Su-57 has been used against priority high-threat targets rather than doing what the Su-34 and Su-25 do. the Su-57 can absolutely mount the same weapons as those two, but it's a waste of time.

Additionally only low tech aircraft is a good way of high losses in a high-tech peer-conflict, or even a near-peer conflict. In the Gulf-war the A-10 had some of the highest loss rates of ANY aircraft in that war and many of its missions were accomplished by F-16s and F-15Ds at standoff ranges, in part because the US coalition lacked proper SAM defenses and relied only on air-superiority rather than a combined arms approach, they were lucky the Iraqis were weaker and more disorganized.

>>5264
>LMAO no.
no what ? do you deny you can shoot down a recon drone with a simple motor airplane ?

>Russia shot down those several times
even if they did, the idea was more using it into your own safe airspace. And using any missile to shoot it down, you're still paying too much.

>Jet fighters are needed, as are slower low-tech aircraft, as are SAMs. This is what combined warfare is
no shit, way to miss the point.

>rather than doing what the Su-34 and Su-25 do.
any jet fighter will be a magnitude more expensive than a regular motor plane

>only low tech aircraft
I didnt advocate for having ONLY them. But do you really need a jet for lobbing FAB-500s ?

Your spacing is ass, please don't do this.
>no what ?
You realize that people can scroll up and see exactly what I'm saying "no" to right? The fact is that Ukraine has failed to shoot down drones with its trainers, since it's literally pulling WW-1 shit, with people firing handguns out of open cockpits. There's literally a Russian drone video where they try and fail to shoot it down.
>even if they did, the idea was more using it into your own safe airspace.
*laughs in long range SAM*
You realize that Ukraine has been using very long range stand-off weapons like cruise missiles and are STILL getting shot down, right? Only a few days ago an Su-35 shot down a MiG-29 - which was using a HARM missile in a long-range ground-strike - from over 200km away, with an R-37. Earlier in the war the S-300V4 set a similar record kill from a similar distance of over 200km. An S-400 shot down an Su-27 over Kiev earlier in the war from 150km away. Pantsir, Osa and Tor SPAAG/SAMs have shot down numerous low-flying missiles, drones and other aircraft.
>using any missile to shoot it down, you're still paying too much.
If you're an idiot using patriot anti-ballistic long-range missiles against drones. A single Tor missile costs maybe a couple thousand dollars. A single yak-52 costs 50-100 thousand dollars, so you're dead wrong.
>way to miss the point.
I didn't miss your point. I don't disagree in the necessity of low-tech aircraft, but not like Ukraine is doing, and frankly an attack chopper would do just as well, if not better.
>any jet fighter will be a magnitude more expensive than a regular motor plane
Any jet fighter would also be magnitudes more effective.
>do you really need a jet for lobbing FAB-500s
In an SAM-heavy air-space like Ukraine? YES.
