    So H&K killed the XM25?

     

    Kind of fucked up, that had a lot of promise.

    So development of oversized grenade lunching AK/PP 2000 stopped... Bolt is oversize AK/PP 2000(at least it look like that for me) Sights(optics and all systems around in general) of such type are not that uncommon. Programmers are not hard to get. What they are developing in this thing for so long and how they fck up delivery.

  2. "Computers cannot create information that they weren't given in the first place.  Computers aren't magical.  They cannot improve the resolution of a grainy photo to show the face of the killer reflected in a raindrop."


    With this I must strongly disagree. Computer(so well mathematics) can create data from nothing. Simplest pseudo-random number generator is doing pretty much that. Or for example camera in You smartphone is doing just that. Create colorfull image from partial data. Consoles do that in form of upscaling for example.

    " They cannot improve the resolution of a grainy photo to show the face of the killer reflected in a raindrop."
    Such system(algorithms) like in this vid are used in all kinds of CCTV for example(it's cheaper to run program on some ARM than buy hi res CCTV camera with good lenses).

     

  3. But does size rly matter? It's not simple antenna. And generally the more complex system get the more it can "bend physics". I'm quite sure there are many ways to made antennae much much smaller while not loosing resolution or even gaining by design complexity. Also after getting data from antenna then come insane amount of mathematics(imagining theories, algorithms, AI, whatever) that probably can made from seemingly useless data, perfectly usable thing.

  4. In some parts of the internet, enthusiastic, shall we say, commentators suggested that the wing antennae on the PAK-FA were some sort of super-duper stealth-busting L-band AESA system.  This is a completely stupid idea.  While it is true that L-band radars work better against stealth aircraft than X-band radars typically used in fighters, an L-band radar small enough to fit into the wings of the PAK-FA would have such poor resolution that it would be useless.


    Producer itself state it's L band AESA radar. Also apparently it's already implemented in other SU planes. And generally they(Russians) have experience in L band radars.

    Close up of the turret:

    Also, look at the device to the left from smoke grenade launchers - it looks like laser sensor (at least for me). On photo in your post you can see same device on other side of the turret. Chonma-216 really looks like most advanced Best Korean tank.



    On the right side of photo(left side of turret) it's anti tank rocket or other kind of AA rocket?

    What does it say for the 6th material down? The one with a density of 1.0 - 1.1 g/cc. (Also, it triggers me that the rows for the material and values in the second table aren't aligned...)

    Polyurethane, polyethylene in multi layered systems alternately(more proceeded by(I have no fck idea what they meant there so literal translation)) with layers of steel.

     

    If anything else need to be translated from Polish language I can do it.
