Alright, i got one from my childhood of a man in a bunnysuit that decided to try and pull some shenanigans
I was around 12 thinking im some slick operator sneaking around out property in the Poconos with this surplus jacket i had and this BB gun of mine and it was raining a bit so the fog was out.
So here i am standing on this bale of hay we had around for some reason or another when about 100 feet away in the tree line i just see this man sized Rabbit just standing behind a tree watching me, so being the person i am i shot at this bunnyman behind a tree and it fucking ran like a bat out of hell further into the forest but then the next day i see it again this time down by the road and i stare it down from the safety of my house, and then i saw it again the next day and the next day and every day for a week after the initial sighting so i tell my parents and they just laugh it off saying im imagining shit.
So every day this thing gets a little closer to the house until its with in about 50 feet of the front door and then i just never saw it again after that.
Doesn't seem as scary typing it out but when i was younger it scared the crap out of me.
Not very /k/ but a while back I was playing guitar on the couch behind a blanket I had inherited from my mother and was playing et hvitt lys over skogen and when I got to the riff at about 4:30 I felt what was either a hand on my fretting arm's shoulder or a muscle spasm

Yes there was a SAA offensive around Bani Zaid/Zahra early this morning. It started at 5 am when they moved into new areas then they were ambushed sometime later with about 56 pro SAA forces killed, 18 of those were Liwa Al Qud fighters.
I rustled up some video of the turkey shoot with these guys missing their shots on runners although they have another video of the dead in the aftermath of this that isn't youtube safe. They hit some of them.

Pro rebel sources claim YPG in Afrin have agreed on a joint SAA/YPG Aleppo offesinve coming soon. That'll be another shitstorm.
why didn't ISIS take the shaer gas fields last year when they had Palmyra? Why would they wait until after the SAA/Russians had recaptured Palmyra to take the shaer gas fields?
>>30398615
This question is right up my alley. IS prepped their back up bases on the Hama/Homs border region when the Russians first entered the war secretly.
The area near Shaer gas field was kept quiet to allow them time to stockpile, dig their underground tunnels in peace while fighting on other fronts. They didn't expose this base area until after they lost Palmyra. This is also why they have had much greater success in eastern Homs than in places like northern Aleppo.

> What's this thread about?
As usual this thread is for the discussion and pics of tracked and wheeled AFVs of all kinds from MBTs to supertanks to self propelled AA guns. Please keep it civil and cite sources for statistics.
By the mid-1960s, France, having pulled itself out of the immediate post-war glut of the 1950s sought to modernise its armed forces, leading to a series of sweeping changes across the board, in large part proceeding with the replacement of its WWII era and early post-war combat vehicles. The AMX-10P was one outcome of this response, as the French initiated a programme to develop a vehicle to replace the obsolete AMX VCI, which had morphed from its role as an infantry carrier to a quasi-IFV in the late 1950s with the M-56 iteration incorporating a 20 mm cannon and turret. The AMX-10P project began in 1965, taking into consideration the evolution of its predecessor, under the auspices of Atelier de Construction d'lssy-les-Moulineaux. By 1968, the first prototypes were ready to be trialed, features including the ubiquitous array of NBC systems, a centrally turret mounted 20 mm GIAT M693 traversing -8 to 50 degrees, waterjets to propel it amphibiously and aluminium frame armour. By 1973, the AMX-10P was finalised, and sent for mass production. Overall, 1810 were produced until 1994 for markets both domestic and overseas. By the 2000s, a decision was made to begin phasing out the vehicle in favour of the VBCI, although delays in delivery meant that a limited upgrade was undertaken from 2006-2008, including passive armour packages and a powered ramp; notably, however, proposals such as the Galix and engine improvements were not adopted.

OP: As always, feedback, suggestions wanted and appreciated.
I continually lament my inability to read French fluently, as I’ve only been able to pick out a handful of stats, with the rest of the information being cobbled together from news articles and Jane’s Information Group tracts. In particular, I’ve had a bit of confusion regarding the plentiful range of variants. In addition to all the standard derivatives, such as the HOT, command, recovery, multiple artillery assistance and ambulance vehicles, I’ve also read about as of 2000, there being ongoing trials for the AMX-10P 25 ICV, a newer permutation with a 25 mm gun. However, I’ve been unable to get information on these trials past 2000. However, Singapore’s export models of the Marine clearly sport the 25 mm DRAGAR developed by GIAT (alongside the TS-90, another export gun system), which does make me wonder if the projects were just merged for the export market. It does seem strange, however, that the superior system not be fielded on domestic French AFVs as well – could this be a result of the AMX-10P’s replacement by the VBCI, and therefore not being deemed as worthy of recent upgrades? I would appreciate if Frenchfag could elucidate some of this, plus some details on the protection of the more modern models, as information is limited to nebulous armour addons and aluminium.
A final observation about the AMX-10P, it did not include firing ports like the British Warrior, perhaps indicative of French doctrinal aspects in the post-war period. Also, I think I’ll address the AMX-10RC separately in the future.
Addendum: Considering what other people said in the previous thread, I may do a thread on Knispel, as part of a bigger series on tank aces and tactical luminaries in the armour world.
>>30393933
More tank news, as per the new format.
If you have more queries regarding a news story, just point it out, and I’ll further elaborate and provide links.
In somewhat related news, Nexter has developed the 40 CTA turret series, which mount a CTA International 40 mm Cased Telescoped Cannon System (CTCS). With no hull intrusion, 60 ready rounds, 2900 kg weight and a full 360 degree traverse at 60/s with elevation from -10 to 45 degrees, it appears to be aiming for ease of use, modularity and a bent towards urban operations, an increasingly common form of warfare.
The Portuguese Army is to upgrade its KMW Leopard 2A6 MBTs to better its communication and battlefield management capabilities. 37 vehicles of the Mechanised Brigade will receive the EID ICC-251 digital communication system to replace its old Thales SOTAS, the contract being finalised this year.
Lockheed Martin has revived its old production line for its Highly-Mobile Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), for the express purpose of exports to the United Arab Emirates. The firm is seeking to diversify its customer base, looking for opportunities to upgrade legacy M270 systems and also restarting its production line of ATACMS for both domestic and export customers.
In addition, Lockheed and Raytheon’s Javelin ATGM scored 100% in five test firings from a UK Kongsberg M151 RWS in Wiltshire, England. The missiles flew between 1.2 and 4.3 km and consistently hit its ground target vehicles, confirming a greater than 94% reliability rate.
The US Marine Corps ACV is finally in the process of being assembled by contractor BAE Systems, with 6 out of 16 being on the factory floor, as SAIC concurrently plans to begin integration work on its vehicles this season. Both firms are expected to build 16 eight wheeled vehicles to be tested in 2017, selected in 2018 and then delivered in batches totalling 204 vehicles by 2020.
And that’s all for now.

Bumping with the AMX 13 HOT, my favorite French tank. Anyone have video of its use?
Are nukes even all that bad?
Yeah, sure, the radiation and shit, I got it, that sucks, but it's not like it lasts forever. Look at Hiroshima and Nagasaki today. Hell, look at the nature around Chernobyl. It's not like a nuke turned the places into permanent wastelands.
So why the taboo on nukes?
Is being killed by conventional means any less deadly than being killed by a nuke?
Not as bad as the movies and media portray them, but that being said weapons we have today are literally millions of times more powerful than those pathetic little firecrackers we dropped on the Nips.
>>30388495
it's not that, it's the collateral damage and destructive power. No battle could be fought in any mostly unpopulated area with the threat of these things because the opposition would just bomb the shit out of it. That would force wars to take place inside of cities and places with civilians. It's just a bad idea to allow nukes to be used in war.
