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...

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do 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.

Serious Sam 4 has a secret RPC weapon you can find if you preordered the game or enable it with cheats. It's as broken as it is fun.
I think the propelling force of the rocket would far overpower the cutting power of the chainsaw, making a sharp, pointy object instead more useful.
And at least make the rockets hovering, like in the shortfilm Ruin.
If they were they'd be a war crime.
It's never a war crime the first time!
Israel: 👀
Rocket chainsaw were great fun to use in Serious Sam 4.
New Helldiver support weapon?
So, similar to Manhacks from Half-Life 2?
I was hoping this linked to an XKCD article that discusses the question. Answering the question optional.
Orks are definitely the only species this would ever work for.
Although I'm surprised they don't just make a gun that fires smaller guns that also fire bullets which themselves fire bullets... that explode.
You should check out Enter the Gungeon.
Everyone should check out Enter the Gungeon.
Choppa shoota’ or shoota’ choppy?
Mork said iz good, make it work!
Brother!
I have no notes
You'll shoot your arm off.
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.
You can balance it adjusting the rocket nozzle
an equal and opposite angular momentum
Idea: contra rotating chainsaws.
So a second chainsaw in the opposite direction?
Nah, second chain pointing forward rotating the opposite direction, with the teeth facing forward.
Give this man a promotion!
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.
You'll need more mass in those teeth.
Depleted uranium chain saw teeth.
If the chainsaw generates so much inertial that it challenges your trajectory, you're doing something right.
nuh uh, make it laser guided
It's like the opposite of a swordfish
That’s actually a good idea for a new fallout weapon
The bang saw
Groovy
Perhaps, especially if combined with giant magnet neck collars like in the beginning of Wild Wild West
Yes
What if you put chainsaws on a Hellfire missile to replace the blades.
Fun concept but if only starting a gas powered chainsaw were that easy...
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
You should be able to replace the heavy engine with a turbine mounted in the rocket engine.
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.
