Mega Rad Gun Thread

My vision of mobile drone defense is two-tiered: the outer perimeter system finds drones large enough to have a radar signature and attacks them with proximity fuzed grenades
They have a microwave emitter that fries the internals of drones. Hook that up to a radar and you have a pennies per shot defense system that works great from all the stuff I've found about it. It's based off the old anti crowd system developed around 2000-2010 ish.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II really predicted a lot of this stuff. You can call in basically an AI guided FPV drone swarm to kill infantry, there's that microwave system (although it's used on infantry) and there's a mission where you can stop Iran from getting bombed or let it happen and they join some coalition. We're in the timeline of that latter half.
 
If the $0 tax was added we're more fucked than before because someone down the line will adjust the tax for inflation.

And the judicial system will side with the dems because "they didn't make all guns unavailable just those specific ones." And once they get that win they will use the same argument with anything semi auto. Trumps recent victory on different judges ruling on a thing then applying nation wide also knee caps us because it's how we got alot of the current wins (bump stocks and pistol braces.) If I understand this ruling correctly gun owners will have to do class action lawsuits against bullshit and then finish it in the Supreme Court......

News flash, the Supreme Court often refuses to take up second amendment cases and often punts back the ones they do.

It's hilarious that when Republicans are in charge they indirectly cause the most 2A damage.
 
God damn this thread is starting to read like Arfcom. Easy on those black pills boys, dont overdose.
I'm just afraid that people are getting too comfortable and not realizing what they're walking into. To this day I have people tell me that Bruen will save us when state government/ courts literally give no fucks about Bruen or " in common use." We fight like a corned animal when Dems are in but go to sleep when it's Republicans.
 
What sort of grenades are you thinking?
Just put a rf proximity fuze in there like any other aa munition. The 40mm platform is small enough to be man portable, is already thoroughly fielded and with platforms like the Milkor revolver grenade launcher can give you a good rate of fire.

My vision of mobile drone defense is two-tiered: the outer perimeter system finds drones large enough to have a radar signature and attacks them with proximity fuzed grenades. I read about this Northrop Grumman solution a while ago.
Just theory crafting but I think you really need 3 layers of defense.

Something for the individual level. Very handy easy to use cost effective every swinging dick can have. Basically a double or triple short barred shotgun loaded with an appropriate cartridge that prevents drones from just lazily flying up to a soldier and taking them out.

Something for the squad level. A weapon system that can engage drones out to a few hundred meters, man portable but likely big enough its going to be the users primary weapon for its user. Something that can shoot down drones hovering 50+ meters over head dropping grenades or performing recon on your position. Thats where a 40mm fired from M203s, M320s Milkors etc. or that warhammer bolter Barret is working on come in.

Something for the company/battalion level. Ideally the two above force drone engagement ranges to increase which make the drones bigger and more expensive worthy of a missile or sophisticated energy platform.

Regardless you need something highly mobile and can be used in tight confined spaces at a moments notice and at a fundamental level cheaper than the drone its destroying. Energy weapons are great but require los as well as being heavily effected by weather conditions. Missiles are expensive and have minimum engagement ranges.

and it would be electoral suicide. Now, I'm not saying it won't happen but its at least 3 years away.

and you'd be saying the same thing if they had been de-regulated completely via reconciliation. this was always going to be a risk. be like the commies and take what you can get and keep moving towards the goal. a $0 dollar tax stamp is light years more than any of us though would be possible even last year.

lets keep getting the HPA adding in bills and eventually one might get through. Remember, its not just gun lobbying groups pushing it, its also hunting groups and audiologist groups too. it has broad support outside our niche, unlike the SHORT act.

You call it blackpills, I call it pattern recognition. Sure, there have been definitive 2A victories in recent decades, but this is still a kick in the teeth and it's reasonable to be disappointed by the total lack of pro 2A sentiment from "our guys". Besides, in the grander scheme of general societal and governmental decay, I think people are just pessimistic in general.

The bigger issue with NIGGERpill philosophy is that it encourages inaction. So many faggots out of nowhere saying "NOTHING MATTERS SINCE WE DON'T HAVE COMPLETE VICTORY TODAY! WE SHOULD JUST STAY HOME AND DO NOTHING FOREVER BECAUSE NOTHING MATTERS!!!" All just before primaries/midterms, just like ever election year since 2018 by pure coincidence.
I do get being disheartened by still having to deal with all talk no bite oldfag neocons though.

It's more disheartening to do all you can and still get dragged down by the same people that have not been removed despite pissing off everyone who could remove them.

Sure, I've given thought to that too. A defense system that needs only electricity to function indefinitely would be an excellent solution. I see two issues - first, is it possible to focus the emitter beam? Or will it dissipate according to inverse-square law, possibly limiting effective range? Second, can a drone's internals be shielded against microwaves with a Faraday cage?

The inner perimeter is trickier - it would have to cover small drones not picked up by radar. And without a radar signature, proximity fuzed rounds do not work. I suppose an optical rangefinding system could be coupled with time fuzed rounds? Other than that, a shotgun-like multiple pellet projectile is likely the best option.

According to the Br*tish military, current microwave technology has an effective range of 0.6 miles.
 
RF energy is difficult to concentrate to the same extent as light (i.e. lasers) and subject to the inverse square law. To "fry" or even disrupt even a consumer drone is a power hungry affair. 0.6mi is pretty good, most drones aren't even visible from that distance, and detecting them via radar isn't going to be easy because they can easily hug terrain until the last second and at a distance may not be distinguishable from large birds and ground clutter. I don't think there need be any worry about faraday caged drones, you can't really cage the motors and their wires and the windings within the motor are probably a sufficient target.

Also, bans on suppressors and sawed offs don’t even make a lot of sense from a gun control perspective considering many countries with much stricter gun laws than the U.S. still allow silencers and some even allow SBRs/SBSs.

None of this has ever made any sense, especially the barrel length restrictions and SBR stuff. Most SBRs are still over 26" OAL and are SBRs because of the barrel alone. A bullpup with a longer barrel and a >26" OAL is not an SBR even though functionally it's equivalent from a "concealable because of the length" argument, all "pistol" ARs would be SBRs full stop if the law was intent on this "concealability" thing and the barrel length would be irrelevant, only the OAL. Not open to interpretation, no gray area like what we have now. Current US gun laws are schizophrenic, make felons out of good people while doing almost nothing to thwart criminal subhuman scum, and are an infringement of a constitutional right, plain and simple.

You say that but I'm not seeing any prescriptions for white pills. Do they even make those any more?
If you protect the drone's essentials with a Faraday cage, how would it get signals to function?
There's a photo near one of those drone hot spots and there's so many fiber optic cables strewn about that it looks like a trillion giant spiders lived in the area. Wired drones are used in heavy electronic warfare areas (jammers are pretty frequently seen on vehicles now) and especially, it seems, between two entrenched positions. 1751231720442.webp
