  • All corporations in the US are built on stolen native American land. The US is currently run by a fascist pedophile.

    No one should support solari’s maker space because it supports a fascist pedophile and their maker space is literally on stolen land.

    There are Israelis who don’t support the genocide. If that company is one of those, it would be important to support them.












  • Thanks for the links.

    The first link isn’t relevant. It specifically says the cage style standoff they analyze isn’t for deflecting the jet but for short circuiting the detonator.

    The second has graphs that show all the various weapons dropping off after 1 meter stand off. The data that says it doesn’t fall off is from theoretical calculations. The front of the ridiculous tank is well more than 1 meter from the turret. You can’t even see the gun barrel which is at least 4 meters long.

    Then there’s the added armored that the standoff provides. There’s boxes probably filled with sand and then several inches of armor all around the tank itself.


  • detonating a HEAT round before it impacts armor actually IMPROVES the armor penetration of the molten hot jet formed by the HEAT round.

    Could you link the information? That goes against everything I’ve ever read. Yes you need space for the jet to form. That’s part of the design of the round where the charge is farther back from the nose. But the jet doesn’t propagate to infinity. It’s the entire reason layered armored exists.

    In particular, that ridiculous tank linked above has a huge standoff.

    As to sabot, again it’s not tank vs tank that this was done.
