  1. Reading 'The Rod and the Axe' by Tom Kratman. A right wing gun nut utopian porn piece of propaganda at it's finest. Batshit nuts, but a fun read.
  2. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-31724995 Send out the torpedo bombers! Oh wait, nevermind.
  3. Stealing from our glorious forum leader's latest blog post, a pic of the VHS-2. Croatian assault rifle. I think it looks neat. Be interesting to see performance/test data from the French competition and see how it performs.
  4. Menacing, sleek, futuristic design! And I don't recall that they made enough of them to be the standard weapon. Edit: 400kish made, along with 400k G/K 43s... Ok... I was off on that.
  5. B-52s modified with stealth tech, air to air weapons and every high tech paper weapon project ever thought of are pretty neat too. Tho if Brad Elliot had his way Russia would have been a glowing parking lot.
  6. Spectre SMG. I had a fanboy reaction to this one. First exposure to it was in the old pulp military fiction novels from the late 80s early 90s. Able Team/Mack Bolan and a couple of others. But they often had data files on weapons used in the books in the back. Saw a picture of this there, and got interested in it. Known for coming with a 50 round casket mag. I think it's kinda neat.
  7. So do you guys have a techno-thriller guy to recommend? I mean, Clancy isn't the be all and end all, but I read fast and need something to read on the weekends.
  8. Apparently ANTARES isn't totally impossible. http://www.iflscience.com/technology/paralyzed-woman-flew-fighter-jet-simulator-using-her-thoughts
  9. I've seen Gwar live. IIRC, opening for a Dragonforce concert I went to. They were overly screamy for me, but immense fun as a stage show.
  10. Going to start the newest Jack Ryan novel that Greenly wrote, presumably from notes left over. Will see how the writing stacks up. After co-writing for Clancy, maybe Greenly can be the spiritual successor to Clancy.
  11. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_Vehicle_90 One of my favorite units in Wargame Red Dragon
  12. Thanks for that read xthetenth. That was interesting.
  13. I think we were looking at the same #s.
  14. someone needs to put some Viagra or Cialis in the fuel tank of that poor tank.
  15. Gods above that camo is gross. What is that muzzle device?
