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. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

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 ‘western’ 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. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat 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.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

You would need an equal and opposite angular momentum at the back of the chainsaw otherwise it will just rotate upwards and loop around in circles.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 3 months ago (2 children)

So a second chainsaw in the opposite direction?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 months ago

Give this man a promotion!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago

Nah, second chain pointing forward rotating the opposite direction, with the teeth facing forward.

[–] mindbleach 9 points 3 months ago

If the chainsaw generates so much inertial that it challenges your trajectory, you're doing something right.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago

an equal and opposite angular momentum

Idea: contra rotating chainsaws.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

You can balance it adjusting the rocket nozzle

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

just enough rotational velocity to counter gravity trying to pull the nose of the missile down though. and also the centripetal momentum of the chain would act like a gyro stabilizer insuring that it remains nominally upright.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

You'll need more mass in those teeth.

Depleted uranium chain saw teeth.

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

The real one deploys blades that cause the missile to spin at very high speeds before it slices through its targets like butter without an explosion

40 horsepower??? Holy shit are you trying to cut titanium?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

It's an anti-tank weapon.

You'll shoot your arm off.

This meme is so old it can legally drive at this point

[–] nuke 19 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I bet you're so old you can drive too

Every 40k author is tearing up their manuscript right now and starting afresh,

...the screaming chainsaw missile tore through the mid-morning air, the astartes all laughed as it sliced though half a squad of guardsmen as they ate breakfast...

That’s actually a good idea for a new fallout weapon

[–] Steamymoomilk 3 points 3 months ago

The bang saw

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

New Helldiver support weapon?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Hellfire R9X

Edit: thank you, C A B B A G E ⬇️

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

What the fuck

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (3 children)

If they were they'd be a war crime.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

It's never a war crime the first time!

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

Israel: 👀

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Why would that be a war crime if the Hellfire R9X isn't?

I was hoping this linked to an XKCD article that discusses the question. Answering the question optional.

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

I have no notes

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

Perhaps, especially if combined with giant magnet neck collars like in the beginning of Wild Wild West

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

Only if they're battery-powered. Carrying enough fuel to feed the saw as well as the rocket would be too much

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

Fun concept but if only starting a gas powered chainsaw were that easy...

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 months ago (3 children)

You see, if you fix the chainsaw ripcord to the bazooka and then fire it you can use the propulsion pull to also start the chainsaw during launch

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Just remember to clean the fuel lines during maintenance as it can separate when left for too long, and press the primer button the correct number of times while loading, and then always store it upright.

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

Like a BeyBlade. Let em rip. And tear.

You should be able to replace the heavy engine with a turbine mounted in the rocket engine.
