F#ck me, that's one deadly Black Hawk... What shells is it firing?

i tell you,walahi...imagine 10,15 of them in action at once.......massacker!...

shells??...ask henry those things..he is specialist for such stuff..

lol used these

HE rockets 2.75 inch calibre most probably

GAU-19 firing .50 calibre armour piercing incendiary / explosive rounds with tracers in between

M134 minigun firing 7.62 calibre rounds

most interestingly the targets were being lased by ground teams,

the heli then used GAU-19 and M134 to soften it up and then finishing it up with HE rockets .

interesting isnt it.

from what i know heli borne guns when fired will cause some of the targets who initially escaped being hit/killed to duck / sprawl on the ground (instinctively or due to shock waves or flying splinters debris etc) so helis use their rockets to finish the prone /sprawled targets as a end game finisher.
it is regular heli attack tactic.

chinese engineers just announced that they have successfully tested a quantum radar.
what this means is that if its TRUE then stealth is already dead and the F35 lightning II is automatically a piece of $1 trillion junk.

.
a quantum radar operates quite different from a regular radar, it works by sending out one photon from a pair of photon.. the photon that is left behind will behave EXACTLY like the photon sent out. its a freak of nature, since we all know that a photon doesn't have mass and its the bedrock of ALL electromagnetic wave.

the theory was discovered by Albert Eistern himself. and the chinese are exploiting it AS USUAL.

if the report is TRUE then all I can say is RIP Stealth, RIP F-22 RAPTOR, RIP B-2, RIP PAK T-50, RIP F-35, RIP AMCA. RIP RADAR ABSORBENT MATERIAL (RAM). RIP USAF.

the implication won't only affect aerial warfare if i am understanding you correctly, radars have endless applications, so what about stealth tanks in development, boats and other naval vessels? and if china has twarted stealth technology with this quantum radar development why are they also investing in stealth ??

if u go to the earliest pages of the technical thread , u will find detailed info on it

as a matter of fact , the technology is still not perfect very rudimentary to say the least , it will need many more years before it can be used in real life conditions (not test conditions)

and there r ways to hack it

i have explained in detail as to how it is possible to hack a quantum radar and even explained the process with the help of LING (i dreamed her up)

(u will find it in the technical thread)

the Europeans and Americans r ahead in this but they r keeping it quite

but kudos to the Chinese for working on it , lets see if they can get a working military grade production version within 10 years .

F35 is not a first-strike platform

It's also not "stealth" it's "stealthy" - it has a low RCS that buys it valuable seconds before detection

B-21 raiders are being built to deal with this sort of thing

It's quite frustrating that so many people obviously have no idea what the F35 is or what it's supposed to do.

People Also forget that when it has its full production run it will be the cheapest fighter ever produced by the US

Don't call it the "trillion dollar" fighter, call it the "85 million dollar" fighter.

Stealth can't die. If it's Quantum, something else will tackle it.

NAF is doing a great job.

The issue is, the Quantum mode will detect some aircrafts but it's ability will soon be phased out. It's Quantum so trust the yanks to develop something else to counter it.


I have been following that program for long. The only problem is that, a new generation of stealthy aircraft will have to be developed in response to such technology.

What was that?

Why won't you edit it, when you're calling a BlackHawk Helicopter an AH1 Cobra.

Same way you were referring to black Nigeria soldiers as white.


You need to visit the best eye doctor in North Africa, not just Algeria.

this time it's an oto-rhino-laryngologist for my ears , I had said AH1 super cobra because the sound of beginning attack it's like a gatling , and there is two helicopters model in this video , the second one could be an super cobra

but after a little search a found thats a BlackHawk 60L DAP (Direct Action Penetrator special op version) , and the second a AH6J LittleBird , thats why i edited

I'll assume the ISIS guys didn't want to win, how do you attempt shooting air support without MANPADs. It seems like they just wanted to get to their afterlife virgins as soon as possible.

These waves shipwrecked many European explores, especially from late May to early September... One could imagine the nightmare of sailing at night in a middle of a Cape storm in a small wooden ship.

No wonder you hardly find pirates in that region.

one can understand why we do not hear of captain Phillips like events in that area, of course the credit also goes to the SA navy doing an impeccable job in their AOR.

I've actually been inside one of these and it's a very, very spacious vehicle for its size. Even the doorways and hatch openings are quite wide compared to other wheeled APCs I've poked around in.

Clearly built for big people in mind.

The waters are very uneasy and rough down south in South-Africa, however i won't go as far as crediting the SA navy for the lack of pirate attacks in those waters. If this was the case, illegal fishing by foreign vessels won't also be an issue, but it is in South-African waters.

The thing with Southern African waters is, Pirates don't exist in those areas. Operation Copper is a good example, there hasn't be any single SA navy pirate take down in Mozambique were the SA navy is deployed in nearly 1 -2 years of deployment.

That's basically the difference.
