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.

I don't think the Russians like her. And soon they'll like her even less.

It's okay, past prototype she's mature enough.

Everyone likes her? More than F-14-chan or F-18chan? Is that even possible?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

F-16s are more or less the export models, which is why it's "everyone" and not "America and a couple allies who whined that they wanted 'THAT ONE, DADDY!' really loud."

You know that secretly the countries that got F16s actually wanted F14s and F18s instead.

No one wants the bog

sometimes being able to field more aircraft is better than getting the best. also, the -16 is much easier maintenance wise.

F-14 will always be my first love

Crashes a lot, but that's your fault.¹

¹ Lots of collision with ground due to pilot error in the 1990s. She may have gotten better since. All my milinfo is old.

collision with ground due to pilot error

As opposed to blaming the ground.

Fucker came outta nowhere!

I think a lot of people blamed fly by wire for being skitchy. I was flying sims and my joystick was always wearing out, so in my own case that was true. Also my collisions weren't fatal.

Also my collisions weren’t fatal.

You tell that to Jeb Kerman's family.

What the fuck is this? An F-35? An F-18? What?!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Better than MILF-29
