Alright, I held off a bit on making my Shahed/Geran commentary public, but I think now is as good a time as any to talk about it.

Alright, since the "West" education level has declined so badly that their "experts" are no longer capable of basic arithmetic, here's a thread on some Kherson ferry math.

Think it might be time for part 2 of the NGSW (Next Gen Squad Weapon). This will focus on the XM-250. First off, explaining a machinegun. These are typically weapons designed for volume of fire.
