@MarcusCanales3 That's the Persuader 1 the first prototype of the Thompson. It's still .45 ACP but its belt fed.

@secretsqrl123 Now they need to load them with unmanned UGV’s or maybe even drones

@fluppedder I mean the M16 had a fire rate between 700-950 rounds per minute so wouldn’t that in itself make it a machine gun?
English
It will always be crazy to me that in-between the BAR and the M249 the US just. Didn't have a squad level dedicated machine gun.

I found this unposted shitty idea in my old file
wtf is this

Not even a year before the Russian SMO launched, the US lost a 20 year long war.
The US launched, and then lost its own SMO in February of this year.
With all due respect (none) shut the fuck up. You have less than no room to talk.

@RuslanLosberg92 @MK_Foxbat I didn’t even need to translate that to k ie it’s some cope shit about Iran- you faggots are the last the day anything about a war these days

ARES ACR - the coolest rifle never tested
60rd bullpup firing plastic cased 5mm 100% tracer ammo with ultra low recoil full auto.
Idea was to use tracers to correct aim, then hose down the enemy in FA. Relevant today as an alternative to Tungsten AP for defeting body armor.

The US Military knows exactly how to do this. It just needs to finally complete the work.

Ukraine and NATO have launched a competition to develop solutions for disabling enemy airfields, according to the Ministry of Defence. The goal is to find a solution that prevents the use of enemy airfields and aircraft over the long term. Participants are expected to propose solutions for destroying key elements of enemy air force infrastructure. The organizers are interested in proposals for the autonomous or remote-controlled destruction of aircraft, runways, fuel and ammunition depots, and ground infrastructure. The prize money for the competition is 250,000 euros. Merz could now win 250,000 euros with Taurus.

Premium styling meets bullpup innovation. Custom SARB15 Bullpup x FM15 Upper with that classic G36-style carry handle optic. Clean, dark, and lethal. ⚡️

@robintel @EdFromUkraine No the drone shown in this image has its wings in the middle, the one on video has its wings near the back of the fuselage.

1/ A new type of Ukrainian drone was filmed on its way toward Moscow. What stands out is its high speed despite using a piston engine. The still frame below reveals several aerodynamic features of the airframe, all pointing to a design optimized for speed.

@The_Davos_Man I mean if you think about it, they were terrorizing/genociding people and overall being a menace during that time.

Compiled a sheet of almost all the known Pre-1900 bergmann models and accoutrements into a single list. Will be doing the 1900-1936 list next.

@MDDragon56 @HanShawnity @ic_ike707 And the US destroyed up to $145 billion in Iranian military infrastructure.
English
@MDDragon56 @HanShawnity @ic_ike707 Time out where did you get that number? The BBC reports that only $2.3-2.8 billion in US military infrastructure in the Middle East was destroyed.
