The blades of the shithook are so perfectly sharp they sliced right through the sails of that boat and you can't even see them move before the camera's already moved on

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.

the shithook
Hey some folks find tandem rotors attractive, there's no need for bigotry.
It's tandem, not bi-rotory.
Those aren't helicopter blades; Boeing forges eight oversized Kitanas and epoxy glues them to the flywheel, hence the 30 million dollar price tag.
Is the Chinook actually bad?
As someone who's been on one, lemme tell ya,
Do not challenge helicopter pilots.
They're all crazy.
I have always been fascinated by chinooks ever since i was a little kid. There is just something so raw and powerful with this aircraft that really vibes with me.
Fortunate Son just started playing from the sky

This is real. Welcome to the Netherlands. https://www.omroepbrabant.nl/nieuws/4531833/speedboot-racet-op-de-maas-tegen-laagvliegende-chinook-bekijk-de-beelden
I think this is a render. There is no water disturbance from the helicopter.
Quite certain it is not a CGI, doing this good of a CGI would be more expensive than just getting some to fly the helicopter.
The "too stable" comments do not realize that two vehicles filming each other with roughly same speed just look stable.
If you would fake it, the camera would have not done those rotations etc, because that makes CGI much more complex. And there is no faked camera shake/zooms/focus changes that in general happen in all faked videos.
There is at the end, in the last second or two. The back ramp is down and the crew chiefs are having a blast. Rotor wing would def do this. I vote real
Oh yeah this ABSOLUTELY is a render. The way it moves too stable compared to the boat shaking around is a dead giveaway, and the rotor blades are way too crisp
I'm pretty sure it's real. You can tell because it was posted in NCD.
That pilot has a deathwish, and proud about it.
He's already dead. The rotor wash isn't touching the water
Afaik that's is a base requirement for Chinook pilots - the pilots vibe must match the machines.
