What is the tank?

[tired anchor]

My man have you tried the mobile infantry event?

[peak silo]

yes

[tired anchor]

Love that event

Very detailed mech suits as well

10/10 would shove 30mm APHE into people's body

[quick marlin]

It's AI generated

[pliant dust]

most of the clans who do testing want actual players that are good, and you have a higher chance if youre good in tourns

[tired anchor]

Its not decided by a players but as a clan

[shrewd gust]

P-51D

Im New to the game

[mint prawn]

[dreamy valve]

Can i ask some one for some advice, cause there is lot tank i dont know wich one is my style

[hidden tulip]

Well what do you want? Do you want a quick shooter, heavy hitter, bulky boi, or speedy dude?

[dreamy valve]

I dont know the name but i like some thin very very tanky and i dont die fast for i can tank for my team

I play some moba game 5v5 so i always play tank class

[hidden tulip]

I'd suggest since you are new starting up the E 100 line in that case. It's a very easy line with straightforward purpose for it's class

[dreamy valve]

Can yu show me screen

[junior mulch]

serb#5242 was muted.

[dreamy valve]

Cause i Just play game since 2 hour

but i pick tank from this flag i know in past i read some book they have havy stuff that whay i pick it from here so now i lvl up and i stop in tier 3

[hidden tulip]

It's this line here from the tier 5

[rough tinsel]

imagine not having a bigger screen smh

[pliant dust]

mayo why are they enriched

[dreamy valve]

@hidden tulip thanks

Soo can yu tell me more about it, is it very very havy and pepil will be scary whene they saw me lr how its work 😅

[pliant dust]

people wont be scared

bot MM is a joke which teaches you nothing at all

[rough tinsel]

it teaches you how to farm, so that when you dont have it anymore, it punishes you for it

[dreamy valve]

What is it bot @pliant dust

Like MM what that mean

I play from Android

[hidden tulip]

I have fallout 76 opened through steam right now, not an option

[waxen coral]

[tired anchor]

Guys i found bag
The Ferdinand sales for 150k

[dreamy valve]

What ? @waxen coral

[pliant dust]

dont research it from the tiger P

[rough tinsel]

nope, its there to punish you

[vocal hound]

Do you have every single Tier VIII enriched?!

[waxen coral]

Blitz Mobile. It was on the pop ups when you enter the game and there's a YouTube channel with professional commentary. Just wondering if it's a new rebranding of the game or something

[pliant dust]

its the new CIS version

[dreamy valve]

Im goanna se all faction maybe i will finf some thin more havy

[vocal hound]

Just stick with German heavies rn

Best starter heavy tank line, plus they have other good starter branches to the tech tree

[dreamy valve]

Right now i have this one

[vocal hound]

It’ll take a lot longer to research past Tier V, but you’ll get used to it

[dreamy valve]

🙄Hm

[vocal hound]

I could do some matches with you once you’re out of the Tutorial stages

[dreamy valve]

Oukey but im bad right now i dont even how to mouve in direction i want

[lusty wraith]

I received the same kind of email. Here is the translation btw. Do you already know what to do about it?

[pliant dust]

contact support

[vocal hound]

Once you get to 7v7 matchmaking and have a Tier V, DM me. I can help you get some experience against actual players, not just the bots that you’ll be facing right now.

[lusty wraith]

I did, but their response isn't very helpful...

"We are sorry for the uncomfortable situation. It seems that some accounts on the RU server have encountered an error and your email address may have been registered there. If you don't care about this account, you can just ignore the email."
After replying again, they just said to contact lesta.

[dreamy valve]

Is this mean armor part he have cause he have the hight one armor plate @vocal hound

[pliant dust]

not that one

[dreamy valve]

Its marque front and back and edge

[solid flame]

current progress of the stargazer project before i thinking of redesigning this

thanks to my perfectionist ahh I gotta try redesign it to look like it's rear design

or maybe reduce the height of the side thingies

[vocal hound]

I wouldn’t go for the Maus. Pretty bad tank in the current game meta.

[dreamy valve]

@vocal hound

T T why

[vocal hound]

Awful gun, armour is negated by a lot of tanks due to thin turret cheeks, massive flat sides, and no mobility.

Go for the E 100.

[timid vault]

The tank can side scrape, especially with the turret, but mobility is poor. Which is expected for a super heavy, making you a huge target without team support.

[vocal hound]

The gun also needs more DPM or an accuracy buff. It’s pretty bad.

[jaunty crow]

The maus is basically a budget E100 right now there is simply no reason to play it given how similar (and worse) it is compared to the E

[mystic oar]

The e100 is easier to play

[tired anchor]

i hate cats

[mystic oar]

Seems like cats don’t like you either

[gloomy cipher]

Lol. That happened to me as a kid. From that point on i haven't really been a huge cat person unless it's a family or Friends cat. But......... I Do like kittens especially when they climb on you.

Guys what mean gun dépression

[languid canyon]

How far a gun can aim down in degrees

[gloomy cipher]

Russian tanks are usually happy. So they don't have depression 😏

[terse river]

Hello Whice better M6A2E1 EXP Or IS-3 Defender

[plucky river]

Is3

[terse river]

I am about to buy a tank but dont know M6A2E1 EXP Or IS-3 Defender

[languid canyon]

IS-3 would be the better choice overall

[plucky river]

I recommand it. Great film for the years it was made.

lol andrew tate profile picture in chess.com?

[simple walrus]

Why no fast reload ??

[tired anchor]

@simple walrus it uses a autoloader not a single shot

[simple walrus]

T57

[tired anchor]

So?

[simple walrus]

So don’t try to be smart

I asked a question maybe if u paid attention

[languid canyon]

Not all autoloaders have that consumable
For example the French Heavies don’t have the intra-booster

[simple walrus]

I understand and the question was why

Not.. give me a smart answer and let me prove u wrong

[languid canyon]

Obj. 752 is already busted as it is, it doesn’t need a faster intra-clip, especially as a 2 shot autoloader

[simple walrus]

That’s why it needs one only two rounds

[languid canyon]

BC Borat and GSOR 1008 both are 2 shot autoloaders and don’t have the intra-boost consumable

[simple walrus]

T57 with highest or one of highest damage per shell in game has one

Well we should all vote to change that haha

Good night and thanks for the good chat

[near pine]

Lmfao

[vocal hound]

400 Damage per shot is nothing special.

[astral acorn]

T57's alpha is average

[simple walrus]

You guys are missing the point

[rough tinsel]

man said good night, and after 20 mins... has returned

[simple walrus]

And I don’t need a kids smart mouth remark @ ThatOneHippo

And goes for hunted as well

[vocal hound]

You just said that the T57 heavy has high damage per shot. It doesn’t.

Besides, all I said was that 400 Damage per shot isn’t anything particularly amazing or special. I wasn’t being smart, I was being blunt.

[simple walrus]

One clip can nearly end a tank but that’s not the point I was making it has fast reload intra clip as other auto loaders don’t and with 752 having only two shells the fast reload perk should go to those with less shells or just exclude all auto loaders plainly

It’s a point for developers not otherwise

[vocal hound]

Sir. Speak normally.

[astral acorn]

The intra clip is quite possibly the only thing keeping the 752 from being a tier 10. Giving it the intra clip consumable would literally make it a Tier 10.

[rough tinsel]

^^, ex. the m6 yoh, which also doesn't makes sense as the intraclip is already small so I dont see why ppl using the 2 shot would have it equipped

[vocal hound]

Yes

[tired anchor]

Bro is it just me or playing wotb at night i just suddenly become like really good averaging 1 loss per 10 ten games? with 2k damage+ or is that just me ;-;

[rough tinsel]

its the teams

[tired anchor]

[devout violet]

They're still in the learning phase, E100 is an excellent newb friendly tank

[indigo heart]

[tired anchor]

It's finally my bday and I hope to get a decent tank from crates because I've never gotten a single tank from crates and yeah I just hope my RNG is good and gives me a tank

Nvm, mod in wotb never adds more resources on your account

(Just for modified your game)

[rocky tinsel]

Very sad

[tired anchor]

I already spent this months allowance

[tired anchor]

I can't really get a sales discount if I don't have any money left besides I was hoping at least the epic container would give me a tank but no

Why dont blitz change the game app icon as i it used to be after every update ? This is stupid
One more thing .. am permenantly chat banned from chatting with players in the game and during battle but why dont you allow me to experience the new command menu since u claimed that u removed game chat .. all players should have the ability to experience the new stuff !! Chat should be apart from command menu !! Ban me from chat but allow me to send commands .. again this is stupid one more time

[tired anchor]

[somber quarry]

We all hope to get tanks in a couple quick crates; but if you really want a tank; and you don't have much gold (basically get it from watching adverts, containers, missions, ... ) then you have to just save the gold and wait for tank sales.

That's why we said to just buy aa taank that you want boxes are stupid and expensive if your just need a tank, when I do get them it's for the xp boosters

[peak silo]

Hate to break it to you Skellys, but an image with no increased blur or contrast from a Phone at only 30x is just not possible, and Samsung had admitted to putting fake moon images, That’s a photo you would get from a small Binocular.

I’ll try to find the source of them admitting but I am certain I saw it

Ah, so it isn’t “fake”, but it isn’t “real” Either, since AI is what increases the quality rather than the actual lens of the camera, so I guess it’s fine, but to me I spend 4 hours with a telescope so personally I find it a bit cheating

Grinding every line to tier X is time consuming

Takes about ten years if you are an average player, have a life and don’t pay for things like XP, credits, or boosters

I always use X5 certificates I started 14 months ago

[lilac narwhal]

I buy them as I have a fairly good job with some disposal income

[lilac narwhal]

That’s a pretty good amount for someone with a life and full time job. More than that and I start to question if some of these people work or if they just “work”

[magic barn]

I play 5-8 games on my one hour lunch break lol only time I get to play is at breaks at work or after my daughters are in bed in the evening

It amounts to about 2 hours a day so it’s not obsessive

[lilac narwhal]

I could never get in the right headspace to play well on breaks and yeah, same with my son. Because of both, I’ve taken some serious blocks of time off from the game over the years, hence the 7 year stretch. 2 hours a day isn’t that bad, and if you are at T8 already, then gj

[magic barn]

Yea in the end it’s just a game. There is no rush. Playing blitz actually calms me down and gets my mind off of work

[lilac narwhal]

Definitely no rush on an 8 year old game with almost 600 tanks lol. You’d just end up a super noob at T10 and then never get to enjoy all the other historic tanks. Glad to see somebody else appreciates the game rather than just trying to win (or worse, p2w) at it

[magic barn]

I’m a medium tank enjoyer so I may leave all the heavies and TDs at tier 8 the ones I haven’t grounded yet lol. I’m an ok player at tier 10 I average over 2100 dmg

[lilac narwhal]

Well, as I’m sure you’ve seen, it’s mostly TDs and Heavies at 8-10. I’m bummed because lights are my thing and they have very few at those tiers. The heavy hitting TDs and well armored heavies are all at those tiers though, so if you want to get the most of those tank types, then you really should stick with them to T10. I’m itching to break into the waffentragers

[magic barn]

I actually do really good in mediums and lights at t10. My record is 5.3k in the progetto 65

[lilac narwhal]

I just get bored with meds and heavies because it’s all about positioning and u get into trading HP. I’d rather let my ponies gallop or lob a life-ending shot from across the map undetected.

[hazy plover]

Yeah... but they aimed more on the Ultra

Tracks when 😏

[worn depot]

So how do we know that these flying objects the US Navy encountered, and couldn't destroy, aren't based on the research pioneered by Thomas Townsend Brown? How do we know the military didn't get it working?

For all we know they've been experimenting with it for decades, trying to get it to work. If they were successful, that would be an entirely new generation of technology.

It would also spell total failure for any country that challenged the US militarily if the USA felt like it was really threatened and it's traditional military wasn't enough.

Suddenly hovering death from the sky.

BTW, I'm not talking about the recent stuff. I'm talking about something that happened a while ago. Some US Navy ships encountered some unidentified flying objects that were just seemingly hovering around in the sky. After several warnings, they tried to shoot them down and couldn't. I think it happened last year?

I saw it on the news, and I also saw a video of it on YouTube. Does anyone remember this?

Ooooh.... Flying tanks 🤤

This is Thomas Townsend Brown, the pioneer of theoretical anti-gravity technology.

[lilac narwhal]

“Sleepless Navy pilot on government prescribed ‘vitamins’ hallucinates at night.” Not a major headline

[worn depot]

No they actually got it on video. I saw it.

[lilac narwhal]

They got Nessie on video too

[worn depot]

I neglected to save it though it was probably taken down. Wouldn't be surprised. If the US military experimenting with Thomas Townsend Brown's anti-gravity research, with definitely explain a lot of these UFO sightings.

[lilac narwhal]

Why fly it near your own pilots if it’s classified?

[worn depot]

It would take a ton of electricity though. If they got it working, I wonder how they fixed that issue. They would have to make the craft incredibly light but with a very strong energy source.

Who better to test military technology several generations ahead of our own, but on our own military?

New battery technology? Nuclear technology?

[lilac narwhal]

Helicopter is antigravity too

[minor sedge]

Blue on blue accidents are a thing

[worn depot]

Maybe a nuclear battery?

His research didn't use wind, it used electrohydrodynamics

Theoretically it could be used to move an object around, and that's what he was experimenting with.

There's real science to this, but back in the day people didn't take it seriously. This was a really long time ago.

Today we have much more sophisticated technology, and it's possible they got it working by now. If they did, that would be an entirely new technology. Think of the countless innovations and leap in technology we could have with something like that.

[faint wedge]

both
you need new battery to storage more power, and need nuclear technology to generate more power

[lilac lynx]

hello everyone

Im Vietnamese, do u know Vietnam's Independent day? (30/4), I am finding mod camo with number 390 or 843 for my t-54 (t9)

[dreamy nebula]

You generate energy with nuclear power, a battery stores it. However the thing is. Batteries are uh, unrealistically heavy to make and there's no way around it, flying with them is really difficult. Cars are a good example and if lightweight batteries have been invented this would be revolutionary as a lot of problems can now be solved.

Also anti gravity isn't really something that exists. There are other ways to make things repel each other, however everything has gravity. Not sure how EHD will help any of these things be more power efficient and fly either.

Just seems like a conspiracy theory to me

[worn depot]

Nah, this guy devoted his life to his theory. I think he was just really limited by the technology at his time. If he existed today, he may have been able to make some progress. But back then? No way. He did have some minor successes and he proved that it worked, but he couldn't develop the technology beyond that.

Before just assuming something is a hoax, you should learn about it.

@dreamy nebula
https://youtu.be/pi4xxKaILsc

The problem is that you need a hell of a lot of electricity to get it to work. The only way this technology would work is if we made really big leaps in producing and storing electricity.

I read that you would need about 250k to get it working. And that's just for a very tiny apparatus.

About the size of a drone

So basically the technology is pretty much off limits and unavailable to us until we can get over that hurdle. Until then, there's not much we can do with it.

So it's not that it's a hoax or anything, it's just out of our reach for now. It probably works, we just don't have the technology to make it work. Unfortunately. That sucks.

This is why I keep saying that we're not going to be able to make much progress technologically, until we figure out a way to produce and store far more electricity than we're capable of today with our limited technology.

I wonder if they'll make much progress with energy production and storage in my lifetime.....

[dreamy nebula]

Theory is not practice. I can also make a theory about how pigs can fly If they run fast enough.

Also 250k what? kWh?

I don't understand how this is not a hoax when you are saying yourself we don't have any technology that we can use.

And we will easily progress technologically it's just about which limits we will find.

Also the anti gravity theory, from my understanding is not possible with our current understanding of physics.

[worn depot]

Go watch the video.

There's a bunch more. I saw one not long ago by a physicist and engineer who used a lot of terminology I didn't understand.... But that was about a year ago. I haven't seen that video in a long time. Didn't save it.

[dreamy nebula]

I can watch all I want however my vocabulary about physics doesn't exist in English, as it's not my native language, and well judging from the title that doesn't look like anti gravity to me.

[worn depot]

Well then you're just disagreeing with something you don't know anything about that you've not pursued trying to understand, so this is a waste of my time.

[dreamy nebula]

All I see is terminology that I looked up that are completely unrelated to anti gravity.

I've tried to understand, however anti gravity is literally impossible according to key rules of physics we know. There may be a way to make something appear unaffected by gravity by having something that counters all forces that gravity applies to the object, but that's saying a spaceship is anti gravity cause it's not affected by our gravity of the earth

But anti gravity itself, where something with mass is completely unaffected by gravity, doesn't make sense to me.

[agile ore]

Just get the earth to spin the other way then.@worn depot .😉

[worn depot]

Take the time to understand what they're talking about or don't bother talking about it.

[dreamy nebula]

No, I want to understand what you're saying, otherwise I wouldn't be responding. Because to me it doesn't make sense.

And I just told you what I know and understand by those terms in case I simply misunderstood those.

And the first thing I find when looking things up about anti gravity, Is that, just like I'm saying, just impossible.

Today marks 78 years since the sinking of the Yamato, the greatest loss of life in a single warship.
It was estimated over 3000 sailors were lost with the ship

[tired anchor]

Start with Sheridan/Bat chat ion 25 T line, cause both line and tanks also pretty easy to get

[signal finch]

Probably because it's cowardice to ditch your ship, like how kamikaze pilots surviving don't want to go back to the Japanese mainland

[worn depot]

Japanese soldiers of that time were expected to win or die in battle. I forget what the name of it was, it was part of their culture. This belief has since been abandoned, obviously.

Retreat was forbidden. It was considered a great dishonor.

[signal finch]

Made a cherry picker aka a boom truck, reused my topkick c6000 chassi

[lilac narwhal]

Actually the crew numbered at 3016 in total and about 269 survived, so FEWER than 3000 died. The additional deaths were from surrounding vessels. Nobody on here will likely care because most of the player base is now gen z and non gen y Millenials who are too clueless in all things not TikTok-related to even notice we have a map called “Yamato Harbor” in the game and that this is the vessel it’s named after. And it’s bushido, for those who don’t know, but suicide is NOT one of its tenets and never has been. That came from an interpretation that honor is the paramount value in bushido (its not, in fact justice would be a closer first precept) and that to retain one’s honor and avoid shame, one must prevent capture, enslavement, or indebtedness at all costs. It’s a perversion of the original concept which was to ensure the militaristic samurai properly integrated with society when they were relegated to more of a police force in the 1400s. Most people think bushido means kicking the other guy’s butt, although in reality, it’s more about being a Boy Scout for your community. And they didn’t ditch Yamato lol. It was brutally ambushed by US Navy air power. It was ordered to beach itself at Okinawa to basically be an impromptu coastal fortress for the island’s final defense, but it was spotted en route and sunk instead.

[signal finch]

J wasn't even saying they're ditching yamato, i meant the fact that alot died because jumping overboard is considered cowardice but oookay, you do you gen baby boomer

[jaunty crow]

history-channel tier military history

[lilac narwhal]

Definitely not a boomer and they were ordered to abandon ship. Again, you misunderstand bushido as most do today

[jaunty crow]

"is now gen z and non gen y Millenials"

[signal finch]

I didn't say its instantly like suicide tho but ok man

It's like dying but with honor, if you come back alive from a kamikaze attack you would lose honor or something

That happened to a Japanese pilot i forgot the name of because Japanese names are weird

[lilac narwhal]

Again, that’s a perversion of the precepts which took hold in the early 1900s. It is not however the true meaning of the philosophy or one of its precepts that one should needlessly sacrifice one’s self. This is why we say the Japanese military had become “rabid” at the time. It had seriously diverged from the moral code of bushido and put loyalty and honor above the other precepts. In bushido, one must balance their practice of the precepts, not skewing too much to one idea or the other. It’s similar to how in the US we have our “patriot” culture which has now unfortunately expanded into this all-encompassing warrior mentality. Japan had been brainwashed to believe the sword was the only tool which could bring success in its imperial aims to bring the world under its control, or the only means of cutting out the failures in its plans. Live by the sword, die by it, thus suicide became their mantra. Has little to do with actual bushido though. It really was about ensuring the guys at the bottom died for the guys at the top. A lot of people don’t realize this, but most of the generals/admirals back then came from the daimyo families, just as most of the yakuza would later sprout from them. It was a continuation of their attempt to stay on top by teaching the lower class Japanese that loyalty was above all else. Better to have your underlings kill themselves in a last ditch effort than to have them hold you accountable for your losses. Old trick

[buoyant gull]

I thought she had about 3300 sailors at that moment.
But i don't think there a fixed number, different sources say different number, but still doesn't change the fact it is the (or at least one of) biggest loss of life in a single warship.
I think most of them were trapped inside as the ship capsized

@tired anchor because against ground targets, the A-10 has proven itself to be incredibly effective

[serene dirge]

man is huffing so much copium

[astral acorn]

It’s Not my fault that it’s effective 🤷‍♂️

[serene dirge]

But it's not effective at it's job

[agile atlas]

Effective in killing stuff that cant fight back

[astral acorn]

And yet it is.

@agile atlas thats Kind of the Point?

[agile atlas]

Its literally inviting a disabled person to a fight in a UFC match against Connor McGregor

[astral acorn]

You cant Just look at the A-10 in a vacuum and say it sucks. It will always have support, just like there will always be things to shoot it down. In combat scenarios, the A-10 has consistently performed well.

[solid flame]

ayo what brush should i use

• Dip Pen (Hard, T 1.0, O 100%)
• Felt Tip (Hard, T 1.0, O 100%)
• Digital (T 1.0, O 80%)

[dire wind]

The A-10 is genuinely not as good as you think it is

Its also not as bad as everyone else is saying it is

Its a victim of the reformers in the USAF who cant get their heads out of WW2 airspace environments.

[serene dirge]

We haven't been looking at it in a vacuum, it's combat roles of bombing is better done by jets like the F-15E. The main concept of the A-10 was using it's gun at CAS and it's gun sucks so what the point of the A-10

[golden cloud]

Why are you even mentioning that A10 can get shot down by fighters? It is not meant for air supremacy contest 😂

[astral acorn]

Eh, not really. It still has F-15s/16s to cover it.

[dire wind]

The brits would like a word with you on that

[astral acorn]

Except it’s not. The F-15E cant stay in one area or carry as much munitions as the A-10.

[golden cloud]

Both polar and ratus mentioned multiple times, its a CAS aircraft, Close Air Support, it DOESNT engage targets in the air, my man

[solid flame]

hmm

[dire wind]

The A-10 has one of the highest friendly fire rates of any US aircraft

[serene dirge]

Staying in one area is bad when not in a vacuum like u said

[astral acorn]

Except thats the Point of the A-10. To stay in one area to provide continuous support.

[modest plover]

@tired anchor you might be interested in this discussion btw

[golden cloud]

It would be possible if SU 57 was produced in any meaningful quantity.

[serene dirge]

The Original point of the A-10 was to be a tank killer with it's gun, which it failed. So they moved the goal post and said hey now the A-10 is effective because it carries alot of bombs. That's the situation happening. ANY aircraft can carry bombs

[dire wind]

The A-10 still requires numerous upgrades just to fix what should never have been broken. It should never have entered service in the state it was in and the only reason its not retired is because the ‘reformers’ still have just enough sway to keep it in service

[serene dirge]

It's only Incredibaly effective at close air support like you said is because they moved the goal post of what it means to be an effective platform

[astral acorn]

The Point of the A-10 was CAS. The gun was one part of it That the Air Force wanted. The other part was being able to “hover”, carry a large amount of bombs, and have fast reaction to an evolving battlefield below, all of which the A-10 has.

[agile atlas]

@dire wind at least its better than whatever the pacifist dude came up with

[tired anchor]

I adore the A-10 but the fact is that advancements in precision weapons have moved it towards irrelevance. It’s fills a niche that aircraft like the Sky Warden can do for a much lower cost.

[dire wind]

[serene dirge]

[modest plover]

isnt that the armored crop duster lol?

[tired anchor]

If you have an unlimited budget keep the A-10. In the real world it’s about time to move on.

[dire wind]

The A-10 is not as good as people who support it think it is, and its not as bad as people who dont like it think it is. Its a victim of certain people in the USAF and is overengineered for an airspace environment that has long since passed into history

[astral acorn]

The Air Force still having trouble moving on because the A-10 works:

[tired anchor]

Yup. APKWS and it’s longer loiter time / operating costs are a game changer for CAS.

[serene dirge]

The A-10 as a concept is obsolete, the A-10 is only in service still because of bureaucracy not because it's an effective platform.

[tired anchor]

Dude the AF has wanted to kill the A-10 since the late 1980’s.

[modest plover]

when i first saw it i thought it was a joke lol

[agile atlas]

Well to put it simply
A-10 is what the Ju 87 was to Germany, the IL-2 was to the USSR and the Beaufighter was to the UK

CAS vehicles that carry enough bark to conceal its ever fading bite

[astral acorn]

They are trying to replace it with something thats as Good at CAS. The Concept is still there.

[astral acorn]

The issue is they have nothing similar to the A-10 that can do it’s job with the same effectiveness.

[modest plover]

they do now

[serene dirge]

No. I'm just going to say No. to you because you are too far gone. Even if everyone tells you it's not effective you will still huff that copium to say uhm actually it is an effective platform.

[tired anchor]

And now they do. For a lower cost.

[agile atlas]

Raider?

[tired anchor]

SkyWarden

[dire wind]

The A-10 should have never been put into service the way it was

Who makes a CAS aircraft that doesnt even have an IFF system

[agile atlas]

Does it come with a guided munition in the shape of a toilet bowl?

[astral acorn]

Even if everyone tells me it’s not effective, the evidence is still there saying it very much so is effective.

[astral acorn]

Quite the interesting aircraft

[serene dirge]

The evidence lmao. The evidence from Wikipedia where it has over bloated kill counts. Against insurgents mind you.

[dire wind]

Quadruple the amount of friendly fire incidents than the next highest aircraft on that list

What no IFF system does to an airplane

[astral acorn]

Even of the kill counts are slightly bloated, they are still quite high and Show How effective the plane is.

[modest plover]

you cant put iffs on ground vehicles lol

[agile atlas]

Again..
The A-10 is like saying you're good at a math test
Despite it being for elementary school students
You're effective yes, but its Literally nothing to commend about because you cant be any less effective in the situation youre in

[serene dirge]

Effective against who

[astral acorn]

Anyone the US fights against

[agile atlas]

Another analogy is saying that youre doing good in the Smasher

[astral acorn]

The A-10 could certainly be less effective at CAS.

[modest plover]

you do know it needs complete air control right?

[serene dirge]

That. That's the problem in your argument

[dire wind]

Since when? IFF systems arent that big, and use radio frequencies IIRC

[astral acorn]

And the rest of the Air Force is able to provide that

[tired anchor]

It is effective and the troops love it. That being said warfare has changed. It doesn’t have much use in the pacific and other aircraft can now do the job for far less money. Not to mention one hasn’t rolled off the production line since the 1980’s.

[astral acorn]

A question That has no meaning? The A-10 is effective at CAS. What is it effective against? Ground units.

[serene dirge]

So let me again ask you again. Ground units. What type of ground units is it effective against.

[agile atlas]

And what are the ground units?

[astral acorn]

All types.

[modest plover]

it cant do SEAD....

its a sitting duck for sead missions

[serene dirge]

Not ground units equipped with manpads protected by their sam sites. ground units that can actually fight back. You can't believe the airforce will forever suppress ground units

[agile atlas]

Bro what is Ali and his Toyota from his father gonna do to an A-10

[tired anchor]

Gotta disagree here. It was hugely effective as CAS for troops in contact.

But it’s still an old one trick pony. An awesome one trick pony but the point remains.

[modest plover]

suppresion of enemy air defense @astral acorn if you are looking it up

[serene dirge]

my argument was it's gun. The main point of the A-10 was useless at it's intended role. Killing armored targets. Sure it's bombs and missiles could do stuff

[astral acorn]

You do have a Point there, thats for the clarification

[tired anchor]

Even the gun was effective.

[serene dirge]

Eh not really

[tired anchor]

Hell Tomcats were doing strafing runs in GWOT.

[astral acorn]

The gun wasn’t the “penetrate any tank from any angle” gun it may have been presented as, but it still worked

[tired anchor]

but fast forward to now and APKWS can pretty much do what a gun does with a much smaller logistical footprint.

[serene dirge]

Against who

[signal finch]

hi fellas

[astral acorn]

Just showing that you didn’t do research. Nice.

[tired anchor]

Dug in troops and thin skinned vehicles. The effectiveness of the 30mm round for these missions was well known. That’s part of the reason the AF wanted to put it in a gun pod (that they couldn’t make work).

[signal finch]

Effective at firing at friendlies 😬

[serene dirge]

I'm just saying it's obsolete, and 'battle proven' against middle east insurgents is not a reason to say it's effective, and there is nothing that can replace it. It's an obsolete plane against anything that can fight back

[tired anchor]

That’s not funny.

[astral acorn]

It proving itself to be effective in battle = Not battle proven?

[tired anchor]

And frankly not appreciated at all here @signal finch

[serene dirge]

Yeah effective in battle, against WHO though WHO. Not anyone the US fights against like you said

[signal finch]

Wasn't even trying to be funny but sure

[astral acorn]

Search it up. If you can’t be bothered to actually do research on the topic that you are arguing about, why argue about it?

[modest plover]

here have a cursed a-9

that reminds me

[signal finch]

Is there an a-1

[serene dirge]

Oh I know what the A-10 is 'effective' against. But I'm sure you don't

[dire wind]

A-1 skyraider

[modest plover]

a-9 came before su25 right? @tired anchor

[agile atlas]

A-1H? Yeah

[tired anchor]

That’s just not true. I already stated who the gun was effective against.

[tired anchor]

I believe so

[astral acorn]

Look at any war the US was involved in where the A-10 was used. Who mainly supplied the opposing side? Russia.

[signal finch]

So it's part of the A-10 ground attack family?

[agile atlas]

Imma just stand by my point that im making now

A-10 is overrated beyond proportion

[serene dirge]

And russia was garbage and supplied the enemy with garbage weapons. your point?

[modest plover]

there's chinese and french as well

[signal finch]

I believe the A-10 is bad at its CAS job, i agree with @agile atlas that the A-10 is overrated, like haha funny brrt sound and that's it

[agile atlas]

Is this a joke or are you genuinely asking

[astral acorn]

They usually supplied them with a generation behind, or tanks that were still relevant, but Russia had better.

[signal finch]

I don't care about US Planes at all so yes

[serene dirge]

You literally can't say the A-10 is battle proven at garbage equipped insurgents then go on to say there's nothing that can replace the A-10 because it's the best at it's job

[dire wind]

No, Skyraider is the first aircraft in that line

[signal finch]

I said a-10 because calling it the Attack family is weird

[astral acorn]

Except i can. The A-10 has proven itself to be a capable ground attack aircraft That the US, for a long time, had nothing remotely close to replace it with.

[dire wind]

A-1 was used in the Korean war, its kinda the A-10s grand daddy

[signal finch]

The only plane in the Attack family i like is the A-4

[inland heath]

only lag again on eu fix it

[agile atlas]

Nah m8 the real grandaddy is the P-47

[modest plover]

its not the first but it is the first in the new name system the usaf started to use during(?) the Korean war

[serene dirge]

Okay fine I'll settle with you, The A-10 has proven itself to be a capable ground attack aircraft against garbage equipped insurgents. But now since the US don't do that stuff no more. It's an obsolete system that needs to be replaced. It is utterly useless in peer to peer conflicts

[modest plover]

not really?

unless you call Iraq garbage equipped

[dire wind]

Yeah, i tend to separate US aircraft and equipment in general into new naming scheme and old naming scheme so my head can wrap around it better

[modest plover]

but yeah it needs replacements

[serene dirge]

Yes I do call the Iraq's garbage equipped

[astral acorn]

When A-11

[modest plover]

they weren't?

There's a whole lot involved in operations

[serene dirge]

the difference in weapon capability between the US and iraqi's make their weapons look like garbage

[astral acorn]

There is also doctrine to look into

[modest plover]

EF-111s, F-4G Wild weasel to do the SEAD and Electronic warfare.
F-16s, F-15s providing the air and strike missions from land
F-18s and F-14s doing strike missions from sea
A-6Es for bombing
AV-8s and A-10s for CAS

compared to that

[serene dirge]

if that poop came from the deranged soviets or the russians bro, we can count it as garbage

[modest plover]

Iraq had MiG-29s and F-1s

[astral acorn]

Sometimes it’s not an Equipment issue, but Just How the Equipment is applied on the battlefield

[modest plover]

MiG-25s as well i think

[signal finch]

Carousel go boom and wee

[dire wind]

The Iraqi military was actually very good for what it was. It just wasnt the US military

[modest plover]

pretty much

[serene dirge]

Nothing compares with the US military

[signal finch]

China

[modest plover]

its just that US had better air control and management as well as the numbers

[serene dirge]

No. Like I said nothing compares with the US military

[astral acorn]

Id say China is the closest peer the US has, but they’re so secretive that I can’t be positive on who’s better

[signal finch]

Yall would disagree because China 🤓

[astral acorn]

The F-15 though 🙏

[signal finch]

See? The Chinese is the only country that is the closest to being a competitor for the US

[serene dirge]

The scope of operational capability the US has is often underestimated. While China is always beefed to be this great enemy

[modest plover]

lets limit it to equipment only...

just a reminder to avoid politics

[dire wind]

China is definitely the US ‘s largest competitor militarily right now but Im 90% sure that’s only because of the size. They released a propaganda video a while back for their new rifle and you could see it keyholing in targets maybe 20 yards away

[signal finch]

Doesn't feel political, we are discussing military strength but sure

[astral acorn]

The new ERA China and Russia developed is actually pretty good

[serene dirge]

Equipment wise, china is atleast decade behind honestly. At the scale of manufacturing and technological research the US is miles ahead

[signal finch]

China is doing great equipment wise

[serene dirge]

The US has had the lead, and is continuing to lead, leading in both quality and quantity

[astral acorn]

Cant wait for the F-15EX

[dire wind]

China is doing good, but the US is doing better

[tired anchor]

China has minimal experience and I question their ability to do combined operations. I also question how their military command and control would hold up as well as their smaller level commanders to take initiative.

[dire wind]

Also General Dynamics casually building a better T-14 just to flex on russia

[signal finch]

We'll see later in 2023

[tired anchor]

The biggest positive that the Chinese military has is that they do not need to project power on the level that the United States military does.

[astral acorn]

I actually question the Abrams X

[serene dirge]

But the power projection the US has is also an incredible benefit. Fighting always far from home is great

[tired anchor]

Not if someone cuts your supply lines.

[agile atlas]

US is great and all in this day and age
But doubt itll actually go back to WW2 standard

[serene dirge]

Decades of domination has created incredibly robust supply lines, China on the other hand..

[signal finch]

It's gonna be drones and missiles

[tired anchor]

I don’t think people understand the logistical nature of war. You could have the best fighters, weapons, and soldiers in the world, but if they are starving and out of ammo, they are useless.

[dire wind]

It’s obviously a testbed right now, but i think in 2-3 years it will be in testing

[tired anchor]

I think you underestimate the effectiveness of the Chinese Navy operating in their own backyard.

[signal finch]

China doesn't have one because its in their doorstep

[serene dirge]

The US has one of if not the best logistical support by far

[tired anchor]

That is irrelevant if they start sinking the ships moving that support.

[agile atlas]

uh...

[dire wind]

Say hello to ford and general motors

[signal finch]

Ford makes weapons?

[tired anchor]

They have to move supplies hundreds of miles while we have to move supplies thousands of miles.

[serene dirge]

Not that difficult when it's the everyday thing for the past who knows. China has no naval combat experience

[dire wind]

They make the trucks that get the people the supplies

[agile atlas]

On a smaller note, morale is also key for war and i dont think the US can stand toe to toe with China on that

[astral acorn]

There are issues pertaining to an autoloader and unmanned turret though

[signal finch]

No, they mostly don't, Reo makes the troop unarmored trucks the US uses

[dire wind]

That was meant to be a meme, but i cant post the gif because it has a naughty word lmao

[signal finch]

Or the M35 series 2½-ton 6×6 cargo truck

[serene dirge]

Chinese morale would plummet you know after they flop massively trying to undertake the most complex invasion ever.. And failing at it. While the US has support from it's allies from all around the globe

[astral acorn]

Also m1126 Stryker my beloved

[modest plover]

no

just nope

[cyan nimbus]

whats the max fps limit tho

[signal finch]

They aren't planning to fight 1000 miles away from home anyways

[astral acorn]

But Stryker

[dire wind]

The populace of the US is in a quantum superposition of hating this country to its core and being ready and willing to die for it. We are both of those, at the same time, all the time

[modest plover]

120 or 90

[signal finch]

120

[cyan nimbus]

i want 144 🗿

[serene dirge]

Luckily due to the many military bases in our allies in korea japan the phillipines, it won't be so difficult as the 1000 miles as you put it

[signal finch]

That isn't mainland US but ok bro you do you

[astral acorn]

Im Ready and willing to do what this country asks of me 🫡 (yes i have almost signed my soul Away to the government)

[signal finch]

I don't want America in the Philippines despite that's protection, just let chine absorb us ❤️

[serene dirge]

We perpetually have a CSG over there so the response can be quick

[modest plover]

i wonder how much cursed stuff i can show you guys

[signal finch]

Show us cursed stuff

[tired anchor]

Yes it will.

[modest plover]

behold, a wheeled BMP-2

[astral acorn]

One country everyone is sleeping on is Poland

[signal finch]

I regret it, pls don't show us cursed stuff 😭

[agile atlas]

Nah i still dont think US soldiers have the morale to contend against Chinese soldiers

[serene dirge]

The US has been operating like this for decades, the whole pacific war was basically exactly that. If anyone could pull off that type of logistics. It’s the US military

[astral acorn]

It’s not A Stryker 😤

[modest plover]

behold, a bmp-2 with truck front

[dire wind]

OH GOD

[modest plover]

Both images are of the same thing

[signal finch]

I beg of you please 😭

[astral acorn]

Why does that actually fit though

[signal finch]

It does not fit at all, it looks so ugly, I'd appreciate a BTR + BMP mix more

[modest plover]

i shall stop the wheeled bmp-2 posts for now

[signal finch]

No stop it's weird seeing a converted tank 😭

[agile atlas]

I dont think China suffers from the same overstressed logistical lines Japan did during the pacific war

[modest plover]

a 105mm BMP, bet we can get this in blitz

[signal finch]

They atleast should have removed the side skirts

[astral acorn]

I mean, that might actually Be a reasonable tank

[dire wind]

DerpMP

[signal finch]

It's not so bad, atleast the bmp has tracks now

[modest plover]

BMP is not a tank....

[serene dirge]

Doesn’t the BMP-3 already have a 100mm gun

[astral acorn]

With a 105mm it is

[tired anchor]

@serene dirge China has spent the past 20 years designing their Naval response to send our Carrier Battle Group to the bottom of the ocean as quickly as possible. They have put billions into over a thousand long range highly accurate ballistic anti ship missiles. These missiles have a strike range of well over a thousand miles. Meanwhile the unrefueled strike radius of a Super Hornet is around 600 miles. I'll be kind and bump that up to 900 miles with stand off weapons. Weapons that the US does not have many of... That puts any carrier battle group under the severe threat of attack if they get anywhere near mainland China.

[modest plover]

That's an arty 105mm

[astral acorn]

I’ll make it a tank through doctrine 😎

[modest plover]

i don't even know what this is

[tired anchor]

There was a recent study that showed we could potentially lose 3 carrier battle groups in less than a week if we attempted to stop a Chinese invasion of Taiwan.

[signal finch]

Bmp2 with ERA

[astral acorn]

This looks so normal yet so wrong

[agile atlas]

Crappier Berezhok turret

[serene dirge]

Luckily we have 11 or was it 12 CSG and striking a carrier isn’t as easy at it seems they are incredibly well protected with I think the Sm3 and sm2 against such missile attacks

[modest plover]

now this is a tank

[dire wind]

I think China might have the same issue as Japan in WW2

They could win a short term war but they would lose once the war starts to drag out and the MIC gets rolling

[modest plover]

you do know 3 of those CSGs are in docks at any given time right?

and another 3 on rotation

[signal finch]

The audacity to put a chaffee turret on a bmp and calling it a light tank

[tired anchor]

That's against cruise missiles... Multiple ballistic missiles are a different ball game. Hypersonics are even worse.

[serene dirge]

During a all out war they’d be put in to service on short notice especially if they sunk 3 carriers

[modest plover]

so technically USN has 5 CVGs at any given time to use

[agile atlas]

@modest plover epic

[tired anchor]

https://www.csis.org/analysis/first-battle-next-war-wargaming-chinese-invasion-taiwan

[modest plover]

and 2 of those are in pacific/indian, 2 in atlantic and i don't know where the last one is, i think med

they take time to travel my friend

teleportation hasn't been invented "yet"

[serene dirge]

The Chinese would need a button of time to prepare their forces, it’ll be very noticeable months in advance

[agile atlas]

WG IS BEHIND THE TENSIONS???!?

Damn WeeGee doing something too dramatic

[modest plover]

you just can't take a super carrier out of dockyard like a normal ship

it will still take atleast a month or 2 to get them back in service

[astral acorn]

US Navy: watch me

[serene dirge]

That’s enough time, they aren’t sinking 5 carriers in 1 week

[modest plover]

these ships operate on nuclear reactors my friend, you have to be careful

[astral acorn]

Careful? Never heard of it.

[modest plover]

_>

[modest plover]

they can sink the only available carrier groups in pacific and indian ocean in that time

med CVG will be the first to arrive

if they take the suez that is in 3-4 days

[signal finch]

Take note China has alot of Ballistic Missiles and ASMs

They can hit from mainland while the US couldn't because they're miles away

[modest plover]

China has a lot of small missile boats

[astral acorn]

The US definitely has ways of retaliating

[signal finch]

How small we talking? 👀

[serene dirge]

B-21 raider less goo

[astral acorn]

B-1 still better

[agile atlas]

uh oh the big red funding button is stuck

[serene dirge]

The b-21 will be able to fly in and be near undetectable and fly out

[modest plover]

those planes still need fuel

[astral acorn]

B-1 > any other US bomber

[modest plover]

you can't make the refueling tankers stealth

[agile atlas]

B-29 > any other US bomber

[modest plover]

follow the refueling tankers and you will find those stealth bombers

[signal finch]

And any FOB nearby could easily get domed

[serene dirge]

You can however refuel the bombers way outside of radar range because the bombers do have pretty good range themselves

[astral acorn]

B-21 also cant go super sonic

[modest plover]

you can still track them with other ways....

[agile atlas]

China do indeed have many satellites

[serene dirge]

Good luck with that

A satellite isn’t going to shoot down a stealth bomber

[astral acorn]

Rods from god though

[signal finch]

It could spot it 🤷

[modest plover]

more cursed BMP-2s @signal finch

[serene dirge]

The problem with spotting it is you still can’t shoot it down

[modest plover]

US had the same idea with F-117s in Serbia

[signal finch]

It doesn't look too bad, it looks cute

[astral acorn]

Intelligence is half the battle

[agile atlas]

Yeah satellites wont
But the planes getting data from the satellites will

[signal finch]

Not saying satellites could shoot it down, but it would definitely keep it at radar lmao

[serene dirge]

That was impressive but the F-117 still flew mostly impervious the whole time

[modest plover]

not really cursed

[serene dirge]

Lotta lessons were learned from that incident

[signal finch]

Awww it's in its comfort zone

Is that composite

[modest plover]

Looks like it, don't think era bricks could be shaped that way

[agile atlas]

[serene dirge]

I think we can all agree however that Chinese submarines are poopoo

[signal finch]

Yep, we all could. They're complete dog doodoo lol

[agile atlas]

Cant fit ERA on IFVs as light as those because the blowback from the ERAs own explosion will tear itself a hole

[modest plover]

yes

[signal finch]

wg should add this tank

[serene dirge]

Is that a centurion chassis

[modest plover]

how about i do it anyways

[agile atlas]

@modest plover middle East?

[golden cloud]

Only one was shot down.

[signal finch]

They even put era on the 1mm side skirt why

[serene dirge]

Looks like a BuK at home

[modest plover]

dunno

[pliant dust]

why not?

[serene dirge]

And they were flying hundreds of 117 sorties

[agile atlas]

Cuz ik there was a tank factory in the middle east that does the most insane retrofits that are impractical

[modest plover]

it has green on it so probably kraz or some ex USSR nation that has sand or dry land

middle east camos don't generally use green in them

Ah, my bad, used Serbian translation 😂

[modest plover]

NATO didn't have HUMIT that Serbia did

F-117s were watched taking off and their flight path and everything by human eyes

you can't beat HUMIT

[signal finch]

Stealth planes when someone looks at them

[serene dirge]

After the shoot down they actually started trying and changed the flight paths so any of that voodoo magic wouldn’t happen again

[golden cloud]

Literal voodo magic

[modest plover]

VT-1 or something

very old missile system for its time

[golden cloud]

S-125 Neva

[serene dirge]

Oh yeah those big missile things

[golden cloud]

Or our military designation for it was SA3 GOA i believe

[serene dirge]

They had those missiles in like top gun

something like this?

Is that crossout? 😛 And yes, its a truck mounted single missile system

[modest plover]

Wargame Red Dragon

[serene dirge]

Those things look like they’re tryna hit the moon

[golden cloud]

Used also because unlike the S-300 that we had, they had no radar signature, so they wouldnt get picked up

During the bombardment, radar stations were only allowed to work for 2 minutes, its how long it took for NATO to get a lock on
