A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

What am I looking at exactly?

[–] [email protected] 35 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Looks like a WW2 Japanese hand-held antitank explosive. The one where you have to charge at the tank to explode it. I may be wrong tho.

This thing had a grenade fuze so a little bit less suicidal than that https://x.com/war_noir/status/1792591036201541906 probably ERA or NERA absorbed it all, no aftermath is shown

Did they have era back in the forties?

No, ERA is late cold war thing

Kontakt-1 was introduced in 1982, composite armour was introduced earlier

Tanks use Kontakt? Is there a MIDI keyboard on the inside?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not sure what you mean. Контакт literally means contact.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

It was a very unfunny joke. Kontakt is also a popular piece of music software.

I assume you're talking about the RPG shot, not the hand placed grenade?

Ah the suicide lance
