It would depend on how strong the dam actually is. Given that we know all about the quality of architecture in China.

That's pretty obvious to anyone with any sort of knowledge and understanding. I don't think Putin is that stupid. If China wants to go crazy, Putin will keep Russia neutral and try to stake out his claim after the dust has settled. KGB wasn't full of idiots.

How will "child support" be arranged?

The Panzerfaust would like to have a discussion with you.

It became completely useless once infantry started getting better, more portable AT weapons. Like I said, you can turn it into a fast SPG. That's all there is to the chassis by 1941.

Scouting was probably bad as well. The Mk. VI's armor could only hold up against rifles and rifle-caliber MGs. It had 4-14mm of armor. One of these "bundle bombs" would be more than enough to destroy it. And German recon forces were equipped with SdKfz 231s and 222s during the early war as...

And torpedoes. @Lord Sovereign mentioned subs as well. Not to mention the steel waves created by CIWS and other anti-missile defenses like the AK-630

Like you said, the mortar was primarily a siege weapon used to hit targets over a high wall or some other sort of obstruction that could block the LoF of a regular cannon, but aiming was haphazard and it was just mostly random lobbing TBH.

The Slow RoF was actually why it was more accurate. High RoF means lots of recoil and difficult handling. The long barrel also helped.

Germans examined the SVT and found it was so good they incorporated the gas operated system into their G43 semi-auto rifle. It was also more difficult to operate, unlike a simple bolt action mosin or full auto PPSh-41. Soviet soldiers were uneducated farmboy conscripts. PPSh-41 was partly (at...

What the BAR needed was a drum mag. 100 rounds, like the Tommy gun drum mag. Sure ROF is slow, but you don't have to reload that often. Reload time (down time) is a critical change for the enemy to rush you and overwhelm you.

You won't believe this but the BAR can be modernized into this: M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle - Wikipedia Counter assault rifle, it's called. Modern Bar joke: Three jihadis walk into a CAR.

Have you never heard the joke about 3 Germans walking into a BAR? Mortars were originally a siege weapon and the idea that it could only be used as a siege weapon remained for quite a while The Germans were the first to make such a mortar, just before WW1, because they already had 160 of...

Because you can place a MG on motorcycle w/sidecar and then drive at the enemy full speed, MG 42 blazing. Remember! Rush B!
