NoScript much?

Well then, here's one from YT:

Although I don't know if there were these videos of the PakFa before, I'm putting them here:

"It looked sleek, mean, fast and deadly. I wouldn't mess with it." said the PAK FA afterwards.

...and another story, about nuclear tests (and 2 infamous attacks) from the test in New Mexico up to 1998:

Show it to those arguing that Chernobyl disaster was worse than nuclear tests...

It's pretty long, however it's worth to see at least the first few minutes and the recapitulation.

Gepard GM6 Lynx, Modern Anti-material rifle from Hungary



A weapon created with the only purpose - to destroy.
This Anti-material rifle can be used to eliminate enemy positions in buildings, mobile units in the open space or even low flying helicopters (600-800m/15000-20000ft).
With it's low weight of 11.5kg it's an ideal high caliber rifle for paratroopers with accurancy of 1 meter square on 1500km (hits barrel on 0.7 mile).
This beast also fires 5 rounds per 3 seconds.

I did a little research on matter, anti-matter and the anti-matter can only be effective if it is use on the right element. So unless you have mass spy network. (LooKing back at soviet times...) you could be shooting the wrong type of Anti-matter for the matter target.

So IMO this is a limited useful tech for wartime.

[MARS]

Anti-matter cannot serve any practical purpose for the foreseeable future, let alone be weaponised. All the anti-matter that's ever been produced at CERN -combined- would merely be enough to power a light-bulb for a moment. At the current rate, it'd take billions of years to assemble enough anti-matter to produce anything comparable to a powerful explosion. And once you've got your anti-matter, you need to build a bomb with a powerful electromagnetic containment field so it doesn't just annihilate itself with regular matter before your bomb even left the assembly line. This shit is way too intricate and impractical.

[partyzanPaulZy]

I have added third video showing effects of the .50 round.
Massey: Anti-material rifle doesn't use anti-matter, otherwise there would be little more craters visible from the orbit.

BTW, there is at least one planned use of the AM, in ion engines of the late 21st century spaceships.

Looking for a google master here....

There are 3 (to the best of my now how) gen-5 planes in proto-stage.
The f-35, T-50 (FAK-PA) and <insert chineese one>.

What, if any thing, can ppl tell us about the the progess of all three planes. (maybe even have a small breif to compair the three [like early post but more infomation])

And does any other country have a 5th-gen plane on the works? (maybe Bazil or EU).

ROFL and cool at the same time

[Overdose]

An artist's impression of what the downed helicopter could've look like.

[MARS]

I've seen this one a few days a go. It's a cool concept - might be useful for a mod - but most of it is probably speculation.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I could imagine the fueling probe having a bit of an ill-effect on its stealth capabilities.

[Dutchygamer]

The 'upgraded' version reminds me of the Comanche. That one was supposed to be 'stealth' as well right?

[MARS]

Yeah, it was supposed to be an armed reconnaissance helicopter with stealth capabilities to replace some of the aging light helicopter models used by the army. If this really turned
out to be a stealth transport helicopter, I wouldn't be too surprised if it borrowed a thing or two from the stuff they learned while developing the Comanche before its cancellation.

[Raven]

Pakistan had said that they picked up for choppers entering their borders and then lost them. Perhaps they may have jammed the RADARS as well.

[Overdose]

I'm pretty sure that was just an American AWACS in the vicinity.

Is this ^ real? or just another Utube joke? If so, Cool stuff for the Britz

P.S why doesnt youtube vidoes seem to work any more on the forums?

Because you're doing it wrong.

[Massey]

Because you're doing it wrong.

I would prefer ppl that dont just go "you did it wrong", but go, "ok this is where u went wrong, explan reason"

but any way, If this is real, how cool is it.

*facepalm* Of course, I'm sorry about that. I'll show you how it works.

The know the Youtube tags.

You click the Youtube video. Then copy the highlighted stuff from the URL, as seen on the picture:


Then you set this and only this part between the Youtube brackets.

This then results in:

[Massey]

Thanks man... much better now!(I just fix up my last too RotR threads )

On another note... any one got any new military tech to show and tell?

Massey

[MARS]

Very interesting technology, assuming that it's real and all. Remember though, it's only IR camouflage; it still looks very much like an armoured vehicle to the naked eye.

[Massey]

Just did a little reading but i dont have the time to do more indepth research... so maybe someone can anwser the following for me:

Is the T-90MS turret and the Universal Combat Platform T-99 going to be the next Main russian tank? T-100MS maybe?

And on that note is there any real be benefits to the MS vision or is it more or less just for show?

The T-90MS is the actual production version with up to date optics and armour protection featuring ERA as standard. Also features inbuilt navigation systems and battlefield management systems. Generally, what you'd expect from a current-gen MBT.

The "Armata" (UCP T-99) is a project that may or may not develop into the next generation of MBTs and variant for the Russian Armed Forces. Apparently it will include a host of support vehicles based on the same platform.
As for the remote-control turret the Armata is being developed with, not sure whether it will be viable in combat but there do appear to be some advantages. Personally, I think it's more of an engineering concept right now but not impossible for it to start becoming a reality 20 years from now. After all, such things as CROWS and other Remote Weapon Systems already exist and have been used in combat.

[MARS]

It's also worth noting that Russia and China seem to have a different doctrine in regards to main battle tanks than most other countries. They have MBTs that are cheaper/less up-to-date such as the T-72/T-80 or the Type-95 which are available in large numbers and then there are newer, more expensive tanks such as the T-90 (as well as its recent variants) or the ZTZ99 which are only given out to the more elite/strategically important units and not available in large numbers. Western countries on the other hand tend to have smaller militaries that only run -one- model as their MBT, i.e. the US only use Abrams tanks instead of, say for example, a few Abrams tanks and many old Pattons nowadays. Chances are that whatever comes out of the Armata project will be treated in a similar way as the T-90.

[CoLT]

Although, in this case, I believe he is referring to the T-99 project not the ZTZ-99.
