A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

If I remember correctly, it's not really a prototype of the P90, but rather a "workshop model" or something like that (I don't remember the gunsmith terminology). It's not meant to resemble the final product in any way, or even be a usable weapon. Its sole purpose is to test that the internal mechanisms work. Basically, it's the firearm equivalent of the Northrop Tacit Blue.

Either that, or it's the army variant of the Bosch vacuum we had in the kitchen when I was a kid.

I can't look at without giggling. Aww, it's so stupid! Like they fumbled some CAD layers and flew the bounding box.

If it looks stupid but it works, it isn't stupid.

Sure, assuming once is enough.

Was in service for three years, and they built a second model.

If you're interested in more, Lazerpig recent "stealth" video discuses this very aircraft and how it competed with the F-117

Thanks. I am more into prop planes, but knowledge is always good to have.
