It's DESIGNED to be seamless and when it works, oh boy does it work. Put it in auto and then just keep pushing rounds through until it blinks full.

This was just to top the crew off after they test fired. SOP at the time was when a crew was taking over station, they would test-fire 30-50 rounds and then get this filled up when the 58D came in for fuel.

Yeah, the upper-duppers (uploader/downloader) was the old 64A way to do it. You slung it onto the gun and plugged it into the aircraft for power, and then fed the trays in. The problem with them, atleast on the Ds, was that they were a great way to tear up the ammo handling system. They pull the system through and…

Holy shit that guy's in my platoon

After working on apaches and knowing about jesus nuts, here's something even more interesting:

Once you put the nut on, they have to spin the bird up and go into a hover for a minute or so (I can't remember the time). And once you do that you have to retorque the nut, akin to check torque on lugnuts after driving 50…

Megalodon was a huge rumor and requested thing UNTIL it was added in the Naval Strike expansion. Not different than the GTA V and MK examples, just on a much smaller timeframe.

Fuck it, just pull a 16" gun off the USS Iowa and call it good.

That poor poor S1000RR

God damn did this post make me miss working on this ugly beasts.

I'd say that the Global Hawk was far more influential in ushering in the drone age, but the Predator, Grey Eagle, or Reaper are still pretty high up there.

That's true, but I did want to see a GP bike go toe-to-toe with a V8 supercar, because they should be fairly evenly matched.

I'm still pretty miffed that they used a stock CBR1000RR and not an RC213V

Gotta love working on Apaches

Mostly because their weapons don't actuate. We punk on the Kiowa community because all the skills and flight hours in the world can't substitute for combat effectiveness, and that's why they're going away.

My dad working on Orions when I was younger gave me such a soft spot for the airframe, and the Viking before that.

Gravity, my nigga.

Too bad it doesn't have any way to counter the torque from the main rotor, or give it any kind of yaw rotation capability.

And over here we have paint.
