    Basically yes. It is actually a whole hell of a lot of heat. As well as the power necessary to shoot it. Some helicopters have them. Like the KA52. It launches the propellers off when they eject. That's the only one with one afaik Radiation iirc is how nukes are tracted

    It would depend. Is there any evidence US military railgun testing was caught by said sensors?

    Alright. I had to Google to make sure what I wanna say is allowed. OPIR is how we detect it. Here is the rundown from the US Defense contractor https://www.northropgrumman.com/space/next-gen-polar

    Because of something called being able to fire off axis and easily relocate. You can put a turretted SPG in an area where there is only one way in and one way out, and not have to spend a long time rotating after firing. Also, Russia, North Korea and I think China still use non turrets SPGs...

    I mean, the Tiger was made as an assault tank. It wasn't supposed to be front line like ot was used.

    Towed artillery is useful in some situations but most of Europe isn't going to be doingbthat kind of fighting. More of move and fire. Easier to love and fire an SPG

    You can join and be bigger. You are gonna go to fat camp at Basic until you pass a PT test or pass height and weight. And the Army dropped the no GED or Diploma thing.

    I mean, you dint really see any of that woke stuff in the Army. Navy sure but not the Army. The Army just isn't appealing anymore maybe because of A-stan pullout. And a 50 is not a low score actually. Any worthwhile jobs have to have at least a high 60s to get. 50s get you most lower jobs, but...

    The point I am making is no one cares about your 65 when the tiger is bigger stronger, and more prone to fire

    Because just like every military out there. People will be out for their own gain, and will take over after the death of their leader. Do a good ol treaty. Well and the fact we have a very good defense grid.

    You are the same people saying China would actually nuke japan if Japan defends Taiwan. China can recover from the dam bursting, the CCP cant. The dam busting would most likely cause a revolt within the country toturn against the government.

    We can totally destroy it without getting destroyed. Wait for them to invade Taiwan. At that point gloves off.
