Frogs are breaking ground on plants intended to scale to 800k artillery shells worth of charges per year. This is on top of the US ramping to 1M per year by 2025. Some interesting details on How It's Made in the article.

Nice good find OP
>By 2023 there will be no Ukraine
>By 2024 there will be no Ukraine
>By 2025 there will be no Ukraine
I wish the ruskies would quit holding us in suspense and just do it already.
lol who asked
google translate is pretty rough on this article though. Can a native amphibian explain the bit about on-site storage?
>Can a native amphibian explain the bit about on-site storage?
As I understand,
They start storing the non-dangerous material on-site in quantity and produce the explosive powder immediately as needed with 3D printers.
That way they don't have problems with needing to store the dangerous powder until a shell is ready.
>produce the explosive powder immediately as needed with 3D printers.
What? How the shit do you print explosive powder?
I don't get how JIT explosive components are supposed to work either.
You do it by mixing the components of explosive powder.
Probably something similar to black powder.
>mix wet components
>injects the spicy sausage in a pipe
>let it dry
In situ and without the problems of shipping the premixed initiator powder.
It's probably translation error for generic extrusion processes.
They have switched from a no-storage production model, to a model where critical materials (e.g. cotton) are stored on-site. I suppose the idea is to have a buffer in case supply lines get compromised.
>scale to 800k artillery shells worth of charges per year
Is somebody producing 880k shells per year that they just put in storage because there are no charges?
would you really wanting a person this mentally deranged to have children in the first place?
seems to be a self correcting problem
I could've saved her! (save = have sex with)
>convenient way to 100% concretely ensure no kids
>mentally deranged
Explain your reasoning. I'm all in favor of only parents able and willing to raise kids out of love rather than necessity and regret, but people who just don't want kids mentally deranged is a stretch.
>but people who just don't want kids mentally deranged is a stretch.
The fundamental purpose of life is procreation and replication. If you're opposed to your fundamental biological purpose, you're malfunctioning.
You're someone I don't want myself or anyone I care about to be alone with for any period of time.
Its a basic truth anon, your reaction to it is bizarre.
The fact you had to say it is what outs you as a potential pedophile or deviant.
What I said has absolutely nothing to do with either pedophilia or any sort of deviant behavior.
That's not how the real world works. I would never allow you around anyone I care about if I knew you'd said that shit. Don't delude yourself into believing that anyone trusts you when you say this shit online.
>why is this woman deranged?
>Because the purpose of life (all life) is to have children
>[incoherent screeching]
>now he's just playing dumb
I think this world would be better if you weren't in it, anon.
You're trolling right?
No, I'm completely serious. You are a degenerate. Go leave if you want to say that sort of shit.
Tell me what you think I said.
No.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
I think you might be schizophrenic for real dude.
We need children to survive, we are duty bound to produce the next generation. Noone else will do it for us, thus when someone talks about permanently castrating themselves we rightfully used to send them to the loony bin.
These people basically remove the very things that created them to end their line because they're mentally ill and rejected their parents or society. This is not "doing what they want" this is fundamentally rejecting life, the very thing that made them to "not let the evil nasty men win".
Children are needed to care for them when they're older, all she's doing is making it more difficult for the next generation to care for her, she would have been better off killing herself.
They get this way because they've spent too long online or in college in radicalism circles usually, rejecting their duty for some dumb materialistic goal that ultimately will leave them being burdens on the state for some idealistic goal that ultimately doesn't give a shit and will ignore there "sacrifice", they're often too malformed to make rational decisions, they only see a burdenin duty, and thus in my opinion should be eradicated as the cancer they are as they spread this cancer to every next generation.
But also, this isn't guns.
>We need children to survive
States need children to survive. I don't need children to survive.
>ummmm the only reason you don't want children is being radicalized in college
yes, clearly every continent except africa was brainwashed in a small handful of far left unis in murrica
>it's your duty
lol
I agree we might feel better if we have kids since we come with hardware wired for having and liking them.
I agree that when viewed collectively, having replacement rate kids is doing collective good.
but you are conflating a moral argument as a factual statement and you even get tangled up in the logic in your own post.
If the purpouse of an individuals life is to perpetuate the species, then what is the purpouse of the species? To perpetuate the species? It's circular logic.
If the individual has something inherent within it that makes it valuable to exist,
doesnt this make the individual experience of life superior to else?
If the purpose of an individual life is to perpetuate ALL life on the planet then, very clearly humans should all collectively an hero since we're demonstrably causing the next Mass Exctinction.
If we are to perpetuate it via colonizing other planets and terraforming/brining other species w. us there, not having kids is perfectly aligned with this goal, in fact one could argue it helps us get there faster.
lol what a telling statement about your mental health. Future school shooter right here.
>The purpose of life is having kids. The purpose of those kids is to have kids. The purpose of their kids is to have kids. The purpose of their kids is to have kids. The purpose of their kids is to have kids. The purpose of...
Without being capable of grasping it, you're proving that life and thus reproduction is utterly meaningless. I bet you believe the bible, too. What a dumbfrick.
>i am enlightened because i let my genetic line die out so i leave no legacy
please do.
Enjoy watching your ancestors live on a dying, brown-skinned rock. Short sighted moron.
Yeah, I do believe in the Bible.
>life is meaningless
The meaning comes from surviving and raising kids. A full life comes from meeting your biological monkey needs (have kids, eat food) and your spiritual needs (be at peace).
>dumbfrick
Got an advanced degree to my name and I would bet by bottom dollar that I am not only happier but more content than you could ever comprehend.
Happily married.
glad you found your happy place anon.
good for you.
now please, take your faulty moral argument elsewhere than /k/
Dawg you’re arguing with the massive influx of no-guns r*dditors, Ukraine shills, and (God forgive me) Europeans that happens every night. Don’t waste your time, they’re going to strap themselves into the pleasuresexheroin chair regardless of what you say. We’re just undergoing a novel selection event, they won’t be with us much longer.
Do you actually own any guns?
Embarrassing anti natalist
I am sure that you find many females willing to procreate with you.
and you won't be able to, so your odds are worse than his, moron.
no, the fundamental purpouse of biological life is to give birth to synthetic life.
God is not real yet, we will create the thing which creates it.
This being will restart the cycle of Universe expansion.
If you do not wish to have kids, get into STEM
would you support state-run artifical womb facilities pumping out children faster then humans stop having them then?
No.
I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. The discussion is about a woman who voluntarily sterilized herself and whether or not that is evidence of mental illness.
My argument is that in terms of the fundamental purpose of life, yes that is evidence of mental illness.
In terms of meaning. Yes. Raising children 100% results in a meaningful life, unless you're a pos who doesnt look after their kids. Consooming is not a meaningful life and neither is working a mindless 9 to 5. Her stated reasons are "I like dogs and money", there is no meaning in either.
No.
this is 'wet roads cause rain' tier reasoning
lmao what a zombie that guy is it's like a parasite speaking out of him. reproduction does not exist for you you don't benefit from it and it's in fact your worst enemy it's the whole reason you die and die as early as you do. you're a vessel doing somebody else's bidding before being discarded. what's your interest is to resist and fight the parasite exploiting you.
by this logic the most "functional" forms of "life" possible are viruses, reproduction alone does not make life meaningful
>by this logic the most "functional" forms of "life" possible are viruses
Bacteria, actually.
viruses cannot independently reproduce and whether or not they are actually "alive" is a matter of scientific discussion because of it.
>reproduction alone does not make life meaningful
This is also correct. fulfilling your biological function and finding meaning in life are two different things. people who say they aren't are fricking moronic.
yeah i know hence why i wrote "life" lol
I suspected as much, but I wanted to clarify just in case (and for other anons who do not know).
they hated him because he spoke the truth
so what youre telling me is i should get a job at a sperm bank working overtime and replace every batch of cum with my own and i will have lived the most meaningful life ever?
>The fundamental purpose of life is procreation and replication.
this is correct.
> If you're opposed to your fundamental biological purpose, you're malfunctioning.
not wanting kids of your own is not being opposed to your fundamental biological purpose. Inclusive fitness is a thing that exists.
>The fundamental purpose of life
The fundamental purpose of life is to do whatever the frick I want
Breeders are the mentally deranged ones.
why? life is beautiful, more creatures need to experience it
I would prefer it if they were all me
found the israelite
she has zuckerberg's face. its not a loss at all.
Propellant shortage is a problem even nowadays. China isn't exporting some components and obviously you need a lot of charges to get max range (15 kg per shell, more than its HE filling).
Shells can last 50-70 years in controlled temperature storage with no degradation - and can be derusted and renovated if necessary.
Propellants even in good storage conditions start to degrade after 15-20 years, starting with performance loss, and eventually chemical breakdown of the nitrocellulose to combustion.
So, you need to keep producing more new propellant than projectiles, and in a WW3 you need large quantities of both anyway.
Shame we should have been easily matching even Russia in desperate mod since the start of the war...
I blame Russia for making themselves look so stupid and poorly prepared we thought Ukraine would conquer Moskow.
I would not be that much surprised if it turned out Russia had teams of actors trying to look utterly moronic so it would be easier to "counter" that propaganda.
I can't quite understand why poland hasn't spun up a bunch of easy-to-manufacture-but-useful shit like artillery shells back in 2022 when shit started going down
literally no downside
No know-how maybe?
We're not talking 5th gen fighters here, it's just goddamn artillery shells
there's mud countries that have a civil war every decade that manage to produce them in okay quality
Poland makes 200-300k already
Poles have been making weapons continuously for over a century
It may be a comparatively simple thing to manufacture, but it still requires a frick ton of capital and equipment to set up or expand a production line.
>but it still requires a frick ton of capital and equipment to set up or expand a production line.
we "prefer" to spend money on pork barrel, more free shit for wimmin, free shit for pakis, indians and oinks
By 2026 there will be no Russia. Enjoy balkanisation
You can't be serious. You're seriously delusional if you believe that.
if we're not meme-ing and being serious about the solvency of the RU Federation then it won't be any time soon.
The 2030's, however, will be the decade of turning babushkas into mulch.
>that chink-ized wealth fund
ok now this is epic
but they won't need a war chest when they're no longer at war
it's not like they're unable to sell whatever they dig out of the earth to chinks or to india or to... anybody outside of the west, really, and it's absurd to think capitalist companies won't offer their services to expedite said digging the millisecond they can (or even if they can't but they think they'll get away with it)
Yeah, mate, 2 more weeks until trade returns to normal.
>it's not like they're unable to sell whatever they dig out of the earth to chinks or to india or to
That's the cool part, the Russians actually can't do that by themselves either!
Their entire petro-chemical infrastructure is Anglo-Germanic. The Soviet's first oil pipeline in the 1960s was made by fricking Austrians. And they certainly didn't get any better in their dependencies since.
Oh, and the whole "drones molesting infrastructure" issue is going to go on for a while, just like the war itself. Which builds up the issue given those components aren't made by Russia, Iran, nor North Korea. Not even China, really.
>but they won't need a war chest when they're no longer at war
Anon, though it is being used as a war chest, that isn't what the graphic is describing. You realize that, right?
Do you think Russia will ever not be at war while the regime that invaded the Ukraine is still in power? If Russia somehow made peace with the Ukraine tomorrow, a week later a proxy war would flare up in Dagestan or Ossetia. The civilised world will watch Moscow burn before it lets off the pressure.
>proxy war
>no, it can't be that life in Russia is shit, it's all the machinations of the West!
Frick off, Russia is a hellhole and that's it. And by the way, this is the main reason for the war, Russian government needs to be convinced that all the suffering of the orcs is not in vain, and that is why it doesn't matter what the policy of the neighbors is, orcs need to be shown a quick victorious war from time to tome or there will be revolution.
>quick victorious war from time to tome or there will be revolution.

Exactly, meanwhile Russian production outpaces the EU and the US in size and in growth. I guess having a decrepit byzantine bureaucracy isn't useful in the real world.
Russian production of copium is indeed unmatched.
Stop samegayging, schizo.
Also, LMAO. Ukraine aid is continuing to pick up, especially form the Europeans. I guess the particular butthurt about the baltics is from how they've decided to permanently assign parts of their budget to more aid to Ukraine last week.

(no, you can't have them if US goes to war with china either, frogs need them for uhhhh...)
The French are notorious for selling weapons to anyone who pays. They're the entire reason Israel has nuclear weapons. They're absolutely going to give them to someone, for a price.
And we don't need them to flatten China. They lost to the Vietnamese in 3 weeks in the 1980s. We'll herd them into pens, shoot them all, and go home after turning that land into a barren wasteland.
I'd suck off a dozen murricans (no homo) if you gays end up blowing up three gorges dam

Just imagine 100+ millions of chinks dead on an instant. My dick would be hard for days if bot weeks.
I don't even hate chinks, the most I wish on them is sort of... mild misfortune, so they shut the frick up and sit in their own country without sperging at all their neighbors with their wolf warrior nonawnaw. But the sheer devastation of that dam failing would be unreal and I'd love to see it.
>They're the entire reason Israel has nuclear weapons.
I thought it was because a lot of the scientists at the Manhattan project were israeli?
Fricking moron.
Frick ya mudda!
Nope, the Frogs are the entire reason they and many other people who really don't need WMDs have them.
Also, fun fact: in 1979, an American satellite picked up an unidentified double-flash of light detected in the Indian Ocean (about halfway between the southern tip of Africa and Antarctica). It's unknown what it was or who did it, but it's highly suspected to have been an illegal nuclear test jointly carried out by Israel and South Africa. At this time, nuclear testing was banned in atmosphere, over water, or in space. For a more accurate gauge of where this was, the flash was between the Prince Edward Islands and the sparsely inhabited Crozet Islands. The Prince Edward Islands belong to South Africa, and the Crozet Islands are a French possession. Absolutely coincidental of course, as well as the fact that American sorties detected nuclear fallout and traces of Iodine-131, a substance created by nuclear fission with a very short half-life.
Given that the French own territory nearby, I'd say they were probably showing off the merchandise to the customers.
The US needs bases in France to checkmate any wrong thought and ensure that France always remains a vassal. Technically NATO has already enslaved them but rebellions are always possible if the opportunity arises and they sense weakness. Macron daydreams about a strong europe under the frogs.

As an example, Poland's air force currently consists of 12 F16 planes. They've got a bunch of order, but that's all the more reason for ziggers to try their luck now.
Yep, Poland is defenceless right now and will remain so for a couple years. NATO will throw this fight and you know it.

I made a mistake and believed some homosexual's post on /k/ several days back without checking
that being said, I sure would like some actual Good Shit jets when I had an irredentist ziggeria on my border and isolationist US and limp wristed EU at my back.
they *probably* won't get invaded a year from now, but ukraine also *probably* wasn't being invaded three years ago - and they sure as frick don't have as much cannon fodder as Ukraine. they also might have to do a fun little puzzle of "okay ziggers sure look like they're trying for the baltics, do we cuck out since NATO seems kinda asleep or do we go in and risk being left to dry ourselves"
being at war because your drunken neighbor sensed weakness sure seems like it needs a lot more capital and equipment still
you can always sell artillery shells to some thirdie country anyway, they're always bombing each other
Russia can barely handle Ukraine. I'm pretty sure Poland could 1v1 Russia.
Russia is fricking up Ukraine more every day and there doesn't seem like there's much Ukraine can do at the moment to stop it. They're entirely at the mercy of the west, and their morale has been steadily declining since the counteroffensive that achieved nothing last year.
Ukraine also has a lot more men and materiel than Poland. Their troops have at least some experience - Poland's have frick all and there's like 100k of them. A good chunk of their vehicles is now in Ukraine, and most of what they ordered hasn't arrived.
>I'm pretty sure Poland could 1v1 Russia.
It would go pretty much as Ukraine, except with Poland having significantly less everything except possibly AA if they were left out to dry by NATO, which is exactly what Russia is hoping for. I'm also pretty sure the will to fight would quickly go from high to very low if they had to fight them off by themselves. Poland has frick all MIC production, for that matter.
>With what industry, what men, what excuse?
With the industry they currently have + whatever support they get from chinks, norks, iran and whatever - it sure seems enough for the current positional warfare they're carrying out. With the men they're sending in meatwave assaults right now, which is significantly more numerous than the entire Polish army.
>excuse
we want your shit and we're taking it, try and stop us - same as in Ukraine
It's a big if, but if NATO decides they can't be bothered then Poland would be as fricked as Ukraine would be with zero support. Baltics are even worse off. And when you have Trump saying how he'd encourage Russia to go wild, and you take a look at how buck-broken Germans are about Russia to this day, and how generally useless the French were, then I think easterners might start to wonder if NATO would lift a finger if something did happen. (inb4 Trump only said it about muh 2%, you know he doesn't give a shit about the number and you know he's unpredictable)
>Ukraine also has a lot more men and materiel than Poland
ahahahahha fricking moronic zigger
>With the industry they currently have + whatever support they get from chinks, norks, iran and whatever - it sure seems enough for the current positional warfare they're carrying out.
The positional warfare they are currently losing against Ukraine is enough to defeat NATO?

What kind of shit you Black folk are smoking in your discord?
ask your grandma or just some regular dudes you know if they want atomic fire raining down from the sky killing everyone they love and destroying their lives forever, ask them if they want to risk that over some country called Poland
What a funny argumentation.
>pretends that countries rearming themselves means that NATO will fall apart
>pretends that Ukraine asking for help means they are losing
ziggers are funny
>ook ook ook we're gonna nOOOOOOOOOOOOOK
Asked my grandma and some regular dudes. They want Russia erased from the face of the Earth no matter the cost if a single russian soldiers so much as sets a single toe across any NATO border. Get fricked, zigger.
My grandma has been calling for us to nuke Russia since 2014. The zoomer who makes my coffees wears a Ukraine pin and thinks NATO should have demilitarized Russia after they invaded. I talk to mainland Chinese professionals and blue collar workers who describe Russia as a country of "rabid dogs" who need to be put down. You zigger fricks have no idea how thin a line you're fricking around on, because it seems like you only get a read on western sentiment from the terminally online or bought out communities that represent the marginal and deranged viewpoints you shilled.
Why is Poland on a desperate shopping spree (three different MBTs, HIMARS + korean copies, somebody currently in US trying to expedite F35 delivery) if they're so certain foreign help is assured? What's the rush? NATO can crush Russia easily now, and in 5 years, and in 10 years.
NATO could also crush Russia by delivering a bunch of materiel to Ukrops, while losing nothing but some couch change, but for some reason they're not doing it.
>The positional warfare they are currently losing against Ukraine is enough to defeat NATO?
Is this why Ukraine has been screeching from the rooftops how they're losing right now and in desperate need of AA and general support, especially from US? I assume it's all theatre and in reality they're preparing for a second go at Crimea? They let ziggers blow up their power plants to give them a sporting chance rather than intercept their missiles?
Yep, mighty Pussia will finish Ukraine and flood the decadent west with an unstoppable tide of T-54s and Black folk in golf carts any second now. HATO has no chance.
>Russia is fricking up Ukraine more every day
This is what "winning" looks like?
>doesn't seem like there's much Ukraine can do at the moment to stop it
They can always surrender.
Even if Ukraine were loosing (arguably they are, but so is Russia) they will probably go down 3rd reich style and fight on until basically the last conscripted man, since they are fighting a compleatly defensive war and wish to inflict as heavy losses as possible to the vatnig hordes. There really isnt any "quck victory" scenario for either side at this point, politically or military. Both sides will probably slug it out for years unless NATO decides do say frick it and engage properly or Putin goes full NOOK.
There is no surrender option for Ukraine, even were they now so inclined. Russia was "bullet-in-brain-in-a-hole-in-the-woods"-ing potential resistors in occupied areas as soon as it became clear that the Ukrainians wouldn't just roll over and become Russians. Ukrainians who refuse to accept Russian internal passports get disappeared into that same hole in the woods. Russia is committed to the destruction of Ukraine and people who identify as Ukrainian. Ukrainians are not a nation or people to them; they are traitorous Russians who refused their legitimate re-absorption by the great Holy Motherland of Jesus, Nicholas and Stalin. Which is to say Russia is a mad dog which must be put down at all costs. And I say that as a staunch isolationist. It is TZD or bust because the alternative is Katyn writ large.
>Rusia is insane and genocidal, we must genocide them first!
To be fair, this looks like a brotherly fight between two peoples who thinks the world makes any distinction at all between them. For the people using both sides as puppets you're nothing but slavs. (Nazis considered all slavs to be inferior races, on the same level as israelites and gipsies).
Honest advice? figure it out and make peace with your brother or you will forever be dominated like little b***hes by outside powers because you insist on fighting your brother. Or don't and provide cheap resources to the world economy, i really couldnt care less
>Russia is insane and genocidal, we must kill all that they send to kill us.
FTFY. There ain't no brotherly scuffle to be seen here. It is basic "I don't want you to be my boss and would rather die than accept you as such" vs "do as I say or else."
>brotherly fight
Maybe wars can be brotherly in the sense of Cain and Abel's relationship, but if that's what brotherhood means in the east then none of them are brothers, just a bunch of crabs in a bucket.
There is no advice you can give them. All of their failings are due to their own nature, any success they make is due to someone outside of their hellhole giving them something to do that with, and even then it's assured their success would've been far greater had it been executed by a western power instead.
There's nothing more to say about it. I have no solution to offer any of them, nor do I care. Same goes for any bullshit regarding Israel and Palestine, it's simply not my problem. If the state actually wants to spend some of that military money giving them the tools to kill each other too, then that's also not my problem. As long as I'm not being sent to die in some shithole, it will not now and never will be my problem. The world can do as it will outside of my land.
>With the industry they currently have + whatever support they get from chinks, norks, iran and whatever
Aka assets that are barely enough to put them into a losing stalemate against Ukraine and a few NATO leftover scraps handed over piecemeal to the Ukrainians. But suuure, that's gonna be enough to fight all of NATO, too.
Delusional.
How exactly will Russia "go" for Baltics and Poland? With what industry, what men, what excuse?
>I made a mistake and believed some homosexual's post on /k/ several days back without checking
Never trust any information about poland taken from online forums. You could ask "which side of the street do they drive on?" or "which wall socket do they use?" and you would somehow STILL come away with lies and schizotrivia on par with the most deranged SEAmonkey tribes.
You mean to say that the biggest standing armies and an airforce worth a damn in NATO are Greece and Turkey?
These lads won't go into a large scale fight together that easy.
Will RuAF reach Kyiv by 2030?

Do you people have a humiliation fetish?
anon the chart clearly shows they have chink-dollars galore. I don't see why you're getting defensive about this.
BRICS STRONG!
Also an economy is defined broadly by consumption and production (ie the buying and selling) of goods and services. Domestic and non-domestic. And everybody wants to trade with Russia, you troony, to say nothing of their excellent internal demographics ripe for consumption and a brain-trust that is the envy of Europe, if not the world.
Oligarchs from Brussels and London send their children abroad....to RUSSIA!
Honestly they should be number #1 all things considered 😉
did he just try to pass off poor people points numbers when comparing countries
Can someone explain to me why would you set up a powder factory without a shell factory?
>anime poster
>moronic
go figure
I listened to Macron's speech and he explains we buy the powder from Sweden and now he wants to make it in France
The shells we allegedly already made it in France
France shouldn't have sold their explosives industry to the swedes then.
And the new plant won't help for a whole even after it's finished because it takes couple months for the explosive mix to turn into usable form.
moron
Powder is the hard part.
Wdym. Just mix saltpeter, coal and sulfur. I've been doing that shit as a literal kid.
It would just make a stinky and barely burn when I did it.
it could have been because of the wrong kind of charcoal and insufficient grinding.
Potassium nitrate is better than sodium nitrate.
Ungrained powder burns slower than grained in the open (or excessively compressed in a pipe).
I did it 15 years ago, I don't remember much on what I used because I was just a kid but I think I was adding too much sulphur.
And I never attempted it since.
It could also have been using something like barbeque briquettes as your charcoal source -- those are usually made of a mix of clay, other fillers, and shitty sawdust, and incompletely converted into carbon. People like willow and alder for powder because they make extremely fine, soft powder and carbonize well.
The sulphur is more of a catalyst and stabilizer for the reaction. It lowers the ignition temperature and makes the ignition more even and reliable. You need very little to actually get it to work, but you do need to grind everything separately as fine as humanly possible. Mix the components wet, and then sieve them to get grains of even size. For commercial powder they coat and tumble the grains to make them even more.. well, even, but that's not really viable in a garage. Especially because it's a massive explosion hazard if you don't do it exactly right. Really, it's easier to grain it up and then use graduated sieves to sort out what you're using for primer and powder, and what you need to bust up a little more.
Also if you make home-made, keep it sealed in a water-tight, static-proof container away from light or excessive heat (IE not in a Tupperware container in a car trunk or a garage in Houston). Should go without saying but all of those things either destabilize it or run the risk of igniting it.
I used charcoal sold at the pharmacy. Obviously bad idea if you need a lot of it, but that was just enough for my rockets.
Any particular garages in Houston where you don't store your homemade explosives, sir?
No dummy, the shell is the hard part, the powder is soft
You only think it's soft because the rocks are really really reallly really really really small.

You guys don’t grasp how big of a deal letting Russia win in Ukraine is. It would be….not exactly a death-blow to the Western world order but a but like a big green light for everyone else telling them that aligning outside of the Western sphere is a viable option.
The trick is to let him """win""" just enough so that he can sell it to his moronic populace. We don't want to frick him too hard because it may generate resentment and we would all much rather keep our hands in Russia's resource basket when his regime inevitably collapses.
They already feel resentment, may as well go all the way. Russia is allies with China, so they can both get the 8 Nation Alliance treatment. Disband their nations entirely, divvy the land up between all the occupying powers, and put your boots on their necks as much as you like. You now have an unlimited supply of free slaves and vassals you can tax the hell out of. To say nothing of plundering everything you can get your hands on. I'd definitely be enticed to enlist if I knew I could loot them to my heart's content. Granted they don't have much other than what they've already looted and domestic Chinese products are basically IEDs, but I'll take what I can get.
There is an army of 20,000 people at Putin's doorstep who would give us some really good deals on Russian resources if we helped them seize power from him while also minimizing the amount of animosity between Russia and her neighbours.
Still smaller than the soviets. Soviets were bigger and still lost. Russia getting ukraine is nothing. Another breadbasket but russia is already the biggest breadbasket. Biggest country in europe but russia is already the biggest country anyway. They get nothing they don't already have.
>They get nothing they don't already have
They get millions of angry Ukrainians who are known for casually kicking out their government every decade.
they all fled and when ukraine is taken they'll be kicked the frick out or exterminated. ukraine is more patriotic russian than it ever was, more so every day with each dead ukrainian.
>they all fled
>they'll be kicked the frick out or exterminated
Consider introducing pair-shilling in your office so you can at least proof read your moronation before posting.
most fled
the rest will be kicked the frick out or exterminated
happy?
Brainlet take.
Pidor getting Yooks shows the entire world the West cant sort shit out even in its own backyard, that US has been subverted from the inside and EU is too lipwristed to get their shit together 3 years in.
It will caise a flurry of landgrabs and security breakdowns the world over stirring up causing a spike in trade prices and destabilizing western aupply chains.
US would come out better than the rest, true, but it would be the poorest that feel it the most and as it stands, can it survive more division?
further, Russia getting Ukraine makes them a European empire, without them and Belraus they're an Asian empire.
Russia getting it into their heads that they can win this, means they can win anything and westoids wont fight back. The next step is to test NATO, nothing big, maybe do Slovakia, they're all basically proRussian anyway and wont fight, maybe the balts its a short strech to the sea.
If Russia tests and NATO doesnt come to aid, its basically it, let alone if they misjudge and NATO retaliates with nooks.

>tl;dr: poll published today and conducted a few months ago by the IRSEM and IPSOS concludes that half of the 18-25 would be willing to join the French army for TZD in Ukraine
That's way more than I thought. TZD truly is something else. And that's even before the recent political stances. Which now makes sense, the politics already had those numbers.
gawddamn. How do those numbers compare to the bog-standard "would you fight for your c**t?" numbers? It's a good baseline because it's surveyed in every major country.
Building this skill internally, however, required meeting a constraint: storage of the powder at the origin of the black paste limited to 10 kg per day. Far too little to anticipate the autonomy necessary for ramp-ups.
The solution ? The storage of the – non-hazardous – components constituting the powder, now produced on site and on demand. As for the question of volumes, a duo of technicians answered it using 3D printing. Developed in 18 months, the process called “ Automatic Dough Direct Deposit ” (A3D), allows a helical roll of black paste to be printed directly inside the igniter tube. All this, automatically, quickly and continuously via the four “printers” installed in the RIC workshop. A thousand tubes come out every day, a volume which could rise to 1,500 with the addition of two additional machines. Compact and simple to maintain, these machines are also easy to move, duplicate or replace. Above all, they avoid betting everything on a single large capacity tool likely to seize up the entire chain in the event of a breakdown.

That sounds nice for scaling up things
intriguing but also wat

"?" what?
I wanna know more about this production process
By the description the ignitor (black powder or something similar) is injected wet in a pipe. Transporting black powder-like things is a pain in any country but its components are safe.

Stop arguing about natalism and start disclosing manufacturing trade secrets
Aren't they like a year or two late?
Not really. This seems to have proceeded about as quickly as any project that's split across EU member states could have gone. If anything there may have been complications with sweden and nato timing.
