The Russians have already been testing unmanned tanks on the poor citizenry in Syria. Dubbed the Uran-9, the robotic armored vehicle is not intended to replace main battle tanks such as the T-90 or T-14 Armata. Rather, the diminutive machine is designed to provide fire support to special operations forces and to conduct reconnaissance. Developers Rosoboronexport expects that the robotic combat vehicle will mostly be used to provide fire support for counter-terrorism units, reconnaissance units and possibly light or mechanized infantry forces.
The Uran-9 system is not just a single vehicle. It’s a complete system that can be deployed with an infantry unit. The system consists of two robotic reconnaissance/fire support vehicles, a truck to carry those robots and a mobile command post. Another unmanned tank the Scorpio is shown below

Admin’s note – this story comes with some second hand personal experience. An acquaintance of mine is a Syrian refugee and he was the one that mentioned that I should look into this for the site as he has personally had to run away to escape these when he was still in Syria. At some point if all warfare becomes unmanned, I wonder if militaries will stop attacking each other’s equipment an instead aim for the human operators and oversight. After all war is still at a base level about hurting other people and other than loss of resources, nothing is really accomplished or less when equipment is attacked and destroyed.

In the Nordic countries, the puukko is an “everyday” knife that is used for everything from hunting, fishing, and garden work to opening boxes in the warehouse.
The Finnish people live in a harsh and challenging environment. They survive by living in and with nature. Long ago, they developed a multi purpose survival knife – the Puukko. It was used daily for many kinds of tasks in the home and outdoors. These basic tools are one of the oldest and most traditional of knives still being used today. Most of these knives are made in the same way they have been made for generations. Each generation adds some new knowledge to the knifemaking process. One of the oldest families of knifesmiths have been hammering steel since 1610 and continues to produce award winning knives today.
The puukko is the only civilian item which can be openly worn as a part of a soldier’s combat gear without breaching Finnish Army regulations, and most conscripts bring their own puukkos with them into military service. It is a custom of Finnish conscripts, non-commissioned officers, and officer cadets to carry a decorated and engraved commemorative puukko of their year course as a part of their uniform, not unlike a commemorative dagger. This is rationalized as the carrying of a handy tool, but it also doubles as a symbolic sidearm. Puukkos proved to be good close combat weapons in the Winter war and Continuation war. The bayonet of the Rk-62 assault rifle has been designed to also function as a puukko.
Puukkos are useful tools for hunters, construction workers and even store workers.
They can be used to open boxes, cut ropes and cords. Skinning game and gutting fish are easily accomplished with this versatile tool.
Most puukkos have a slight shoulder but no choil, since the point where the edge ends and the handle begins is also the point where most power can be applied. A puukko often has no guard to stop the hand from slipping onto the edge, but this is of no great importance, since it is primarily considered a cutting tool, not a stabbing weapon. In cases where the knife and the hand are expected to get wet, like if the puukko is meant for gutting fish or game, some form of guards are carved into the handle. The traditional length of the puukko blade is the same as one’s palm width, usually 90–120 mm. Carvers, huntsmen and leatherworkers favour shorter blades; woodworkers, carpenters and constructors longer. The Saami leuku, which is an outdoorsman’s tool, may have blade up to 400 mm, and historical väkipuukko up to 500 mm; it is more a machete or short sword (scramasax style) rather than true puukko.
Both factory forged and hand forged blades are often laminated. A thin layer of very hard steel (traditionally crucible steel made from limonite iron) is sandwiched between two layers of softer metal, which make the blade less brittle and facilitates repeated sharpening. Before the 19th century, almost all iron in Finland was made from limonite on charcoal blast furnaces, which yield very pure and high quality iron suitable for crucible steel. German silver steel was and is a popular core-steel material. Today both carbon steel and tool steel are used. The blade can be lightened and strengthened with a fuller.


The US Air Force has awarded defense contractor Leidos $334 million to develop the next stage in its hypersonic arsenal: a hypersonic spy drone vehicle dubbed the Chaos.
This latest contract comes less than a week after the USAF announced the successful test of its first operational hypersonic weapon (defined as capable of traveling faster than Mach 5 while maintaining maneuverability), or air-launched rapid response weapon. , or ARRW.
Unlike the ARRW, the Leidos Mayhem Award isn’t just about building a weapon—it’s for the “multi-mission ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) and Strike, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) program and attack aircraft.” A warhead will fit, but this is a lot like a photon torpedo/probe/space ark from Star Trek: customizable to meet mission needs.
“This program is focused on delivering a larger-class, air-breathing hypersonic system capable of multi-mission execution with a unified payload interface, providing significant technological advances and future capabilities,” the Department of Defense said last week.
The Mayhem’s air-breathing design also differs from the ARRW, which uses a missile system and glider to hit targets. No hypersonic strike vehicle has been built yet, though — Leidos said its initial award of $24 million for system requirements and conceptual design reviews in a digital environment — is quite preliminary.
The maximum prize is $334 million, but is otherwise “an indefinite/indefinite quantity delivery contract with a cost plus fixed fee… for research and development” as part of Mayhem. In other words, the bill will only increase.
The USAF’s Project Mayhem has been public knowledge since 2020, but little is known about the actual purpose of the classified program. Chaos was thought to have involved the development of a new hypersonic attack aircraft until an actual contract opportunity was posted, revealing it to be the aforementioned ISR multirole and strike vehicle.
As a jet engine platform, the Mayhem is more similar to DARPA’s Hypersonic Air-Breath-Deploying Weapon (HAWC) weapon concept than the USAF’s ARRW missile. DARPA successfully tested the HAWC missiles earlier this year and believes they are also ready for real-world use.
Hypersonic weapons aren’t limited to traveling at only Mach 5. One hypersonic design tested by Lockheed Martin in 2010 has been shown to be capable of reaching speeds of Mach 20, which could allow it to traverse the continental United States in as little as 12 minutes. Chaos is only described as being able to travel “long distances at speeds greater than Mach 5”, though it is likely to be slightly faster as well.
The stated goal of the US government is to develop hypersonic weapons capable of striking anywhere in the world within an hour.
No matter the pace, the mess will be nothing more than a blink in the eye of a multi-year defense contractor — the Department of Defense has said it doesn’t expect work on the project at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base to be completed until October 2028 — if all goes well. ®

What is survival without a hatchet right? So if you gonna get one either way the Gerber Bear Grylls Survival Hatchet would probably the perfect hatchet for you. It’s compact yet powerful hatchet that chops surprisingly well. This is mainly because most of the weight is in the head of the hatchet. So don’t be fooled about the size of this full-tang survival hatchet. Being a full-tang is another great feature that provides the strength and durability needed for the hardest of tasks. Full-tang is the strongest of tang types and means that the blade is made of one solid piece and 2 handle pieces that are attached to the side of the blade. And to finish it off the hatchet Gerber Bear Grylls Hatchet has a zero slip grip, double duty head and a military-grade mildew-resistant sheath!

We know that the crossbow existed back in ancient moments in China all-around 600BC. While in the Center Ages the crossbow was officially called the Arbalest. The crossbow assortment was 350-400 yards but could only be shot in a price of two bolts per minute. It didn’t take lots of coaching or strength to shoot the crossbow. A Knight in complete armour could possibly be killed by a crossbowman. The crossbowman ended up often peasants without any coaching or position. The drawback of a crossbow was some time and cost coupled with the gradual firing rate. The most crucial disadvantage on the crossbowman was the reloading time. This place them within a vulnerable situation so consequently they required tall shields to safeguard them whilst reloading. For this purpose the Pavise was invented. All through the center Ages the crossbow was regarded as inhuman demanding no authentic skill to work with and so there was no honour in getting a professional crossbowman homepage.
The development of your crossbow has transformed and won’t look something like it did in historical periods. In historic times It had been created within a way by which the bow was mounted throughout a wooden tiller or inventory. When it had been fired the bolt or arrow would shift down the stock or tiller. One prevalent unit was the stirrup which was created within the entrance in the crossbow. The archer would then brace the crossbow using the foot and draw the strings with both of those arms. Some archers applied a hook to drag the string back. The enhancements for the fashionable day crossbow is usually that it truly is crafted from with improved materials and helpful designs which would make it a lot more exact and potent. The crossbow is basically a bow and arrow that operates by spring action. The spring motion propels the arrow at a high level of velocity. Now it really is mainly useful for looking major sport. So it’s very speedy, impressive and makes large electrical power. The crossbow must not be made use of devoid of being familiar with what security steps need to be taken. The crossbow is utilized by large recreation hunters and recreationists but before employing a crossbow you have to be sure and investigate the legislation in your condition that govern the crossbow.
We’re looking at the crossbow dramatized in publications as well as in flicks now. We see it employed in the “Walking Dead” wherever the crossbow is made use of to be a weapon for protection by a male character. Inside the Television set sequence “Revolution”, we begin to see the crossbow is portrayed for a weapon of protection by a female character. The bow by itself is staying extra to social clubs and colleges to be a sport or extracurricular sport or exercise.


A medieval illustration of longbowmen in battle from Froissart’s Chronicle.
BY TOM CROPPER
The English Longbow was one of the defining weapons of the middle ages. It helped England challenge the might of the French and enabled ordinary peasants to defeat wealthy knights.
The longbow is generally considered to be an invention of the middle ages, but in truth it has been around since the Stone Age. It was the Welsh, however, who perfected the art, using it to great effect. The first documented occasion of a long bow being used in battle was in 633 in a battle between the Welsh and the Mercians.
It also impressed Edward I during his campaigns against the Welsh. It is said that he incorporated Welsh conscript archers in his later battles in Scotland. He even banned all sports on a Sunday except archery so his archers could hone their skills.
How the Longbow Was Made
The genius of the longbow was its simplicity. It was a length of wood – normally willow or Yew – about the height of a man. Each one was tailor made to its owner and could produce enough power to pierce even the toughest armour of the time.
Using a longbow was not easy. Each bow was heavy and required considerable strength to use. The skeletons of medieval archers appear noticeably deformed with enlarged left arms and often bone spurs on the wrists. Using one effectively was another matter altogether. The weapon had to be used quickly and accurately with the best archers managing a firing rate of one ever five seconds, which in turn gave them a crucial advantage over the crossbows, which not only took longer to fire, but also had a shorter range.
A 15th century miniature showing longbowmen from the Battle of Agincourt 25 October 1415.
Success in War
It was in the Hundred Years War that the longbow came into its own. At the battle of Crecy, English archers were instrumental in defeating a much larger and better equipped French force. At the time warfare had been dominated by the power of the knight, clad in expensive armour and riding an even more expensive war horse. Battles were fought on the principles of chivalry with captured knights being treated with all due respect and returned on receipt of a ransom.
At Crecy Edward III changed the rules. In one battle the flower of French chivalry was cut down in its prime. Two thousand French knights and soldiers were killed by the English arrows, while only around 50 archers were killed. It sent shock waves throughout France. Not only was there the disaster of the defeat to be accounted for, but also the shocking fact that highly trained knights had been killed by low born archers.
English archers would continue to be influential in later battles in The 100 Years War, particularly in Agincourt where English bowmen again defeated a much better equipped army of French knights.
Over time the longbow was replaced by gunpowder, but it continues to hold a special place in English psyche. It was even deployed during World War II, when an English soldier used one to bring down a German infantryman. That was the last time it’s been known to have been used in war, but it continues to be used in sport and by archers trained in the medieval skill.
The longbow continues to be used for sport and exhibitions to this day.


Springfield TRP 1911 by Zorin Denu
A fine pistol is a work of art in weapon form. Why have art that hangs lifelessly on a wall, when you can have firebreathing art in your hand?
On this day in 79 CE, small earthquakes started taking place around Mt. Vesuvius. As minor tremors were common in the region, the Romans living in Pompeii, Herculaneum, and other cities south of Vesuvius did not recognize the quakes as warnings of the catastrophic eruption to come on August 24, which would kill around 16,000 people.

Keep the battle going after dark with the light up stream saber SS-750 water gun! This water launcher measures 22 inches long, features a 17-inch barrel and is capable of shooting a 3/8-inch wide stream of water up to 70 feet.
For rapid reloads, simply submerge the barrel in water and pull back the handle. The barrel has a removable tip for maintenance and easy cleanout of debris.
The SS-750 requires (3) AAA batteries. When lit, the launcher changes colors with each launch of water. The launcher also shuts off automatically after 1 minute of no use, helping save battery usage. Colors and packaging may vary.


(Updated: Upon further review of photographic evidence, this was a contrail and not a Trident missile as previously stated. The article has been updated to reflect this.)
Treasure Coast, Florida – New Year’s morning the sun rose with a bit of mystery on Florida’s Treasure Coast. Many people out to view the first sunrise of the New Year saw something they could not explain in the sky. While some believed it to be a rocket launch, none were present on the Cape Canaveral public launch schedule.
Local news station WPTV reported on the launch, stating that the DoD had no information. In the absence of such, people began speculating on the source. Some people claim it may be UFOs, while other claimed contrails from a high flying aircraft. One leery gentleman though it could be the North Korean “Christmas present.”
So, let’s dig into some facts. Wholly discounting the UFO theory, we have contrails, North Korea, or a standard rocket launch. Contrails are those vapor trails left in the sky by fast moving jets. When contrails form at sunrise or sunset they tend to be orange, almost flamelike. Upon reviewing an abundance of footage of the mysterious object, I believe it is highly likely to be a contrail.
The North Korea theory. This is laughable. Kim Jong Un wishes he had the ability to threaten the US east coast with a missile, which he doesn’t. His range is currently limited to the very edge of the west coast of the US, and that would be on a good day. Since that threat was made the week before Christmas, the US has been watching North Korea very closely, and if they were to launch anything, there would have been warnings and such. They just don’t have the technology to cause the phenomenon witnessed off the coast of Florida.
I originally thought this object was a Trident II D5 missile test from the Port Canaveral test range, off the coast, due to the direction relative to the photographs. These nuclear capable missile are submarine launched and constitute the “third leg” of the US Nuclear Triad, a strategy that allows nuclear missiles to be fired from stationary Minuteman missile silos, air dropped from planes, or fired from SSBN submarines. These systems have to be tested regularly to ensure the systems still work as designed. The last test of a Trident missile was in May 2019.


Someone posted this video on HFBoards:
This could be used to demonstrate why the financial crisis happened. The cost of an RPG rocket seems to be at least $50 and can be as high as $500 depending on the model. In any case, a rocket is worth a lot more than a fish. The problem is, of course, that the individual firing the rocket does not bear any of the costs of firing the launcher (courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer) but receives all the benefits.

“Dear young people who have never experienced war...
‘Wars begin covertly. If you sense it coming, it may be too late... Japan is the only nation that has experienced a nuclear attack. We must assert, with far more urgency, that nuclear weapons cannot coexist with mankind... Now is not the time to stand idly by... Average citizens are the primary victims of war, always. Dear young people who have never experienced the horrors of war – I fear that some of you may be taking this hard-earned peace for granted."
TAKATO MICHISHITA, age 78, Nagasaki atom bomb survivor
The atomic bomb
Can mass destruction ever be justified?
Should some countries be permitted to produce, or keep Nuclear weapons?
When, if ever, is war justified or necessary?
What can we do to prevent a nuclear war?


The Growth within the United states of america as the Superpower
The growth and apply of nuclear performance has produced the United States accepting a position since the accurate Society Military services Superpower. The Unites Reports was the best choice in setting up, developing, testing and also having the strongest nuclear weapon proven to boyfriend.where can i buy an essay online This area also directed the earth in more or less harmless creation of nuclear strength. The actual other contender to the United States, the Soviet Union, enjoyed bad front runners, induced a terrible economic conditions, and consequently encouraged the nation to reduce the race for superpower.
At the time of World War II, america started the research and progress of the atomic bomb. Rule-dubbed the Manhattan Challenge, it occurred from a authorities constructed destination in New Mexico recognized as Los Alamos. Popular Leslie Groves and physicist Robert Oppenheimer led the research to bring about this atomic bomb. The vision ended up being to grow, assessment and, if possible, release an atomic bomb. While using some individuals implementing setting up and setting up this bomb, they done it within the small length of time provided with. In July of 1945, they analyzed the nuclear bomb in New Mexico. It has been successful. The actual the following month, an atomic bomb nicknamed Minimal amount of Son” was lowered on Hiroshima. Only some moments after, the atomic bomb Unwanted weight Mankind” was decreased on Nagasaki. It has been available this point that the us identified that no individual, not really Germany and even the Soviet Union, was wherever nearby rivaling the United states in atomic weaponry. The atomic bomb was decreased not just to finish the combat with the Japanese, but to point out the whole world, especially the Soviet Union, how solid the us is at its administration, its armed forces, its know-how, and its particular customers. The indisputable fact that it actually was an alternative bomb and staying the number one kind of its type ever crafted also precipitated an eagerness to make usage of the bomb and determine the way would work. These 3 details could be the reasons behind america falling the atomic bomb on China, while they unintentionally and inadvertently commenced the nuclear years of age and also Chilled Battle.
The Cold temperatures Conflict started as World War 2 was ending. The United States as well as the Soviet Union originated from the former combat practically similar in muscular strength, with the United States keeping the upper hand, actually being the first one to design and employ these sort of powerful nuclear performance. It was subsequently during this time period that states ended up being competing to end up being the whole world Superpower. Nuclear energy, for that purposes of power plus weaponry, was going to be the choosing aspect about who may be the significantly greater Superpower. The United States command was robust and well organized. The economic conditions was wonderful and expanding greater. The Soviet Union was not carrying out also. Earlier remaining beneath the law of Stalin, with tough centralization where rrt had been exactly the maximum celebration degrees that produced all judgments who determined by decree and enforced with terror, the Soviet people and economic situation was stagnating. Exact centralization continuing and eventually led to financial drop, inefficiency, and apathy over the 70s and 1980s, and led to the Chernobyl and nuclear devastation.


If a bullet is fired straight up in the air, will it return to ground level with the same velocity?
Some labs are not safe to perform in schools, but give valuable insight on physics: Thus we may watch a video of such an experiment.
MythBusters Episode 50 – “Bullets Fired Up” – Busted, Plausible, and Confirmed
All guns are “rifled” in order to impart spin to a bullet leaving the barrel.
This rifling gives the bullet angular momentum, which stabilizes it (keeps it from tumbling)
How can we see a bullet’s angular momentum?
Rhett Allain offers a physics analysis of the “Bullets Fired Up” episode of MythBusters
Results are complicated: In most cases the bullet lands with non-lethal velocities, despite confirmed cases to the contrary. How to solve this apparent paradox?
There are really two different cases:
Experiments show that bullets lose (*) spin (and angular momentum) via interactions with the air. Once they lose angular momentum they are no longer spin-stabilized. Without spin-stabilization they tumble, and thus they experience more drag (“air resistance”), slowing them down more.
Bullets fired at an angle can come back down fast enough to kill someone. Experiments show that this allows bullets to keep more of their spin/angular momentum. They stay spin-stabilized for more of the trajectory, and thus keep more of their energy upon landing.
(*) Both momentum and angular momentum are conserved quantities; when we say that an objects loses either, it is because the momentum is actually transferred at a microscopic level to the surrounding molecules of air. See our lesson on momentum.
Analysis: What if the bullet falls without tumbling? How fast would they go
PhysicsForum meber WhyIsItSo gives us the following:
In the original post, there was not sufficient information to say, for example, if the bullet still had kinetic energy from being fired, or if all the speed that was left was its terminal velocity. For the latter case – Assumptions:
1. Take the ideal case (unlikely) that the bullet is falling in a consistently “nose-down” attitude.
2. Air pressure is 1.29Kg/m^3
3. Use a .45 Cal bullet, mass 300 g, drag coefficient 0.228. The “nose down” attitude gives us a cross-sectional area of 0.0001026m2.
4. Still day [no winds].
5. Ignoring humidty.
Process: We can use the Quadratic drag formula.
m = mass of bullet
g = acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s2
C = drag coefficient
ρ = air pressure [This symbol is the Greek letter rho]
A = cross-sectional area of bullet
That comes out to about :
Velocity terminal = 442 m/s = 1,448 ft/s = 987 miles/hour.
Gun enthusiasts are probably thinking that number is higher than the muzzle velocity of most guns, which means that in this “ideal” scenario, a bullet fired straight up wouldn’t get high enough to attain terminal velocity on the way down.
Much more realistic would be to assume the bullet is more or less sideways on the way down. This will result in a drag coefficient more like 0.6 (a sphere is about 0.5), and a cross-sectional area – very roughly – twice the nose-on area, or say 0.0002052 m2
Plugging those numbers in gives:
Velocity terminal = 192 m/s = 630 ft/s = 430 miles/hour


The Armsmith Extra
Allow me to present to you the Armsmith Extra, an armsmith expansion allowing you to get started crafting advanced munitions, special shields, and deployable turrets.
Munition crafting will allow you to, first, create advanced firearm cartridges, crossbow bolts, or arrows. These rounds might be deafening, made to pierce tank armor, or designed to split in half and inflict two wounds.
Shields aren’t used by many Tephran adventurers, but shield crafting might change that. Not only will you be able to make your normal shield very efficient, you’ll also be able to turn it into a weapon, attach explosives to it that burst outward, and set it down to provide you cover from one direction.
Turret crafting is for those of us who just want to use enormous firearms. You’ll be able to deploy your turret on the battlefield, sit behind it, and wreck havoc upon your foes – all while being protected behind the cover that your turret grants you.

Photo reconnaissance flights by Spitfires and Mosquitoes over enemy territory were key to the aerial bombing efforts of 1944.
However did you know that these aircraft were unarmed? In this film , the Spitfire is a Mk X1 PR ( Photo reconnaissance ) version, fitted with long range fuel tanks, enabling it to fly to Berlin and back. Built for speed and endurance , PR aircraft not only were unarmed , they didn’t carry armour plating or armoured glass in the front screen – all to save weight.
This excellent documentary also shows us that the Americans flew Spitfires as well. We tend to think of them flying American aircraft , but this aircraft Spitfire PA 944 was flown by John Blyth of the USAAF. After all this time he still enthuses about the Spitfire – the aircraft that every pilot should fly!
Enjoy the film and thanks to our American friends for making and sharing it – and for their brave contribution on missions such as this.

This is a thread for discussion of the article, Arrow Speed and Kinetic Energy, By Jon Henry. Ranch Rifle. Knowing how your arrow speed changes with the increase in arrow weight, you can now easily figure out the new kinetic energy: For instance, if you know your crossbow shoots your current 400 grain arrows with a speed of 400 FPS, our chart above tells you to expect 124. 006" straightness, Deer Crossing Archery's 100% pure carbon arrows are truly at the intersection of quality and economy. Momentum is more important than kinetic energy. Made and designed specifically for the whitetail deer hunter, Barnett's new Whitetail Hunter® STR features a compact, manageable profile that hunters of all sizes and skills can manage. In our example, the computed kinetic energy of the (5 gr/lb) 300 grain arrow was 49. The guy that sold it to me acknowledged the trend of heavy arrows for kinetic energy but preferred to get his KE from a light arrow speed combo that kills deer just fine. For bowhunters looking for a durable, hard-hitting, small diameter shaft that still provides unmatched straightness retention, the Kinetic family of arrows meets the challenge. This will likely kill the deer but make tracking and recovery a little more difficult since the blood trail will be lighter. into Kinetic Energy in the table below. Arrow Speed. The large plate dissipates the energy of the arrow quickly and results in a very shallow hit. They'll increase your bow draw weight max. Using this kinetic energy calculator, it produces 124 foot pounds of kinetic energy! That makes it one of the most powerful crossbows you can buy. FOC stands for Forward of Center balance point. The offseason is here. How much Draw Weight should I need for hunting. 10 Things You Need To Stay Warm While Sitting In A Tree. South Dakota whitetail deer bow hunts always bring a spare release. If your shooting a normal sized fixed blade head I dont see much of a problem shooting a lighter arrow. lbs of kinetic energy. i like as much speed as possible without sacrificing my k. Right now I am shooting a 396 grain arrow at 300 fps. Here are a couple non-hunting examples to help you grasp what momentum is. To use another African example, a crossbow shooting a 500 grain arrow at 350 fps developes about 100 foot-pounds of kinetic energy, sufficient go-power to hunt Cape buffalo or elephant in a compound bow. Constructed of three independently replaceable sections held together by a sturdy interlocking design. You can use 400+ grain arrows to achieve a little more kinetic energy, but keep in mind this will reduce shooting accuracy as the arrows will travel slower and hence experience more drop mid travel. - The bow must be powerful enough (shoot the arrow fast enough) to deliver a kinetic energy of min. into Kinetic Energy in the table below. This bow can shoot an arrow at the downrange of 260 FPS. The question is more related to kinetic energy and the ability of the arrow to penetrate efficiently. A carbon core provides strength without adding too much weight. The 22LR has momentum of 0. We've found it is fantastic for hunting deer. Regardless of what type of arrow you choose, you need to make sure it matches your bow. When starting out, most bowhunters are advised to shoot light arrows with light broadheads so they get faster arrow speeds, higher kinetic energy numbers, and flatter trajectories. It is an embodiment of accuracy and precision with a shooting which makes it one of the best arrows for hunting. But when a 600 grain arrow was fired from the same bow, its computed kinetic energy was 54. 24 foot-pounds of kinetic energy. In the Product Spotlight, Gary Cornum from Easton Archery shows. Its does not take a whole lot to achieve arrow penitration into the lung cavity. So if your new bow setup ultimately shoots a 400 grain arrow at a respectable 250 fps (a typical field-output for a modern rig), your actual kinetic energy or "power" will be:. Welcome To Archer & Angler Welcome to Archer & Angler. When it comes to bowhunting, kinetic energy gets all the love. Easy assembly and take down. 26 J/mm(2)) are similar to bolts discharged by pistol crossbows. When hunting bigger game, heavier arrows are preferred by some but speed is then sacrificed. Archery is a sport that is good for the mind and the body which benefits me greatly for my health and wellbeing. When the arrow compeletely stopped it would transer all it's energy to the deer, where the broadhead tipped arrow would have passed through the animal. If you search this question in a lot of online forums you will hear every answer imaginable. You need more kinetic energy – or knockdown power – than required for deer to bring a bull or cow elk to the ground. There are several factors that will determine the success you experience on a real hunt out in the field. Archery Message Boards. They also state 55 ft-lbs of kinetic energy would is sufficient for most popular North American game species. But it’s also got something for me in other ways. Kinetic energy The kinetic energy is as vital as speed when you were looking for the best crossbow to buy. We need to figure out the kinetic energy (KE) of the arrow. But, as this model has a draw weight of 55 pounds, it is enough to bow hunt at least a deer. The superior construction has the ultimate spine consistency, making it excellently accurate and durable. A bullet, because it is moving so fast, has incredible amounts. of Kinetic Energy, the Warhawk has enough power to take down any whitetail deer! Weighing in at just over 5 lbs. Kinetic energy of an arrow can be found by using the formula KE = (mv ²)/450,240 where m is the mass of the arrow in grains and v is the velocity of the arrow in fps. Here you can ask questions or make comments about the article. This is a crucial point especially for hunting, as KE ultimately determines how hard the arrow will hit the animal. I see the big mechanical broadheads recommend a bow with" high kinetic energy" to ensure penetration,but nowhere do I see what level is considered "high energy". It appears that you have a clear shot into the chest cavity, and if you were hunting with a rifle, it’s possible to land a fatal shot. Since those shooters have very low kinetic energy numbers they have to have as much momentum as possible out of their setups. In order to determine the kinetic energy, you must know the velocity of the bullet and the weight of the bullet in grains. However its been said and written that 25 KE should be a minimum for deer sized animals. The blades of a mechanical broadhead are deployed in flight, thus raising the level of lethality against the target. Both carry 100 ftLbs of Kinetic energy. Then going heavier helps with penetration. For the purpose of archery, we measure kinetic energy in foot-pounds (ft/lbs. Too low will lack penetration but too high will make the arrow awkward to shoot and will cut down your range. arrow will outperform a light arrow, even if the kinetic energy number is the same between the lighter vs heavier arrow (when all other factors are equal). Easton Beman ICS Hunter Patriot Factory. At the end of the day, you have to assess your bow and arrow setup to decide what the best choice is for you. Its velocity will assure you good groupings as good at 70 yards. Kinetic energy is more important to me than speed. Now we do the math. Rage is the world leader in lethal broadhead technology. This is because the lighter weight allows for faster acceleration, which also causes the arrow to hold its trajectory better and lets off a faster shot. 06 with a normal load and 9g bullet and a muzzle velocity of 800meters per second) is 2880 joules. Kinetic energy is the work that the arrow will do. Momentum, by comparison, is the genius, recluse cousin few people talk about, but who has a cult following. It is related to power stroke and draw weight. Kinetic energy is used to measure the mechanical efficiency of a bow. The problem is that they often also get poor penetration and start losing animals. Kinetic energy? Discussion. 55 Foot Pounds for: Medium Game such as Deer and Antelope. Totally retarded. reading the ttb1 tim talks about howard hill with a 40 pound bow shooting a 450 grain arrow in the 140s the kinetic energy is about 20 foot pounds. Spin 400 carbon arrow. 950-1000 grains are preferred. speed gives you a flatter shot (allows more distance errors). Momentum is MUCH more important than kinetic enenrgy. Big Buck Registry Deer Hunt Podcast Fueled by Rackology 149 TRAVIS T-BONE TURNER: Redneck Pep Rally, World Championship 3-D Archery, Bow Evolution, and Thor’s Hammer - Powered by USA TRAIL CAMS From his humble beginnings in Dayton, Ohio to the country life of Georgia, Travis T-Bone Turner is one of the most likable hunters on television. Get the best deals on Bow Hunting Crossbow Complete Arrows for Archery when you shop the largest online selection at eBay. Draw Length: 28-29 inches. When it comes down to the moment of impact, I don’t want my arrow and broadhead to use any of its kinetic energy opening its blades, when it could be used to further pound through bone and flesh. Annual season bag limits for antlerless deer were reduced this season from five to three in the Delta, Northeast, East Central and Southwest zones. By being squared, the speed has a greater influence than the mass in the resulting kinetic energy. The quality of your arrow truly is the best and cheapest way to increase the consistency of your shots. according to a kinetic energy calculator it shows I am sitting at a little over 60# of KE. Your are high, hold your comments until you shoot one. Think of kinetic energy as the amount of punch your arrow has when it hits the target down range. If you’re looking for an arrow that surgically penetrates with blistering speed and will stand up to real-world abuse, you have found it. 5 inches shorter than the R20 and still delivers arrows at 430 FPS with a punishing 164-foot pounds of kinetic energy. Mass Weight 3. However, with its ability to fire bolts up to 400 fps behind 140 ft. The kinetic energy, that is, the force of impact, is about 58 foot-pounds. We need to figure out the kinetic energy (KE) of the arrow. Think of kinetic energy as the amount of punch your arrow has when it hits the target down range. Don't think it happens? Watch nearly any hunting show, and you will see deer running off with over half the arrow sticking out. You can use 400+ grain arrows to achieve a little more kinetic energy, but keep in mind this will reduce shooting accuracy as the arrows will travel slower and hence experience more drop mid travel. Momentum is more useful for hunting purposes because it is based on mass. 5 inches power stroke, the Ravin R29 measures 29 inches in length and weighs 6. In preparing for a moose hunt, I took Gold Tip carbon arrows and inserted weedwacker plastic string into the shafts. Its unique, high-performance carbon construction is lightweight and fast, and delivers the kinetic energy needed to drop a whitetail deer. Consider the power of your crossbow. So both speed and mass matter. Most current bows which are tuned can shoot an arrow as close as possible to the 5 grains per pound of draw rule and still have plenty of kinetic energy to kill a whitetail deer. If you're shooting well above the recommended kinetic energy and have a deep penetrating arrow & broad head combo, your arrow may still reach the vitals but stay in the deer. It looks like the regs Jerome posted are speaking of minimum arrow weight and kinetic energy, and do not mention draw weight of the bow. pronghorn and white-tailed deer. Thus, it may. Lighter arrows will increase the speed at the expense of momentum, making it harder to bring down bigger game like a buck deer or bull elk. 380 grain arrow at 308 fps, with a foc of 11. Total kinetic energy depends upon two variables: the mass of the object and the speed of the object. If you are interested in calculating the kinetic energy of your bow and arrow setup, I highly recommend using this calculator from BackcountryBowhunting. Whitetail deer require a broadhead with a cutting diameter of at least 1 inch and larger deer, such as elk, require heavier broadheads with larger cutting diameters. Recommended Kinetic Energy for Hunting Whitetails. Note this is especially helpful when having the precise speeds of your setup at the yardage your shooting. To discover the AMO Speed a bow is set at 60 pounds, with a 30-inch draw and shooting arrows that weigh 540 grains. How fast the bow shoots. Once bowhunters actually try heavier arrows with the right kinds of broadheads they never go back. Rage built their name on the unique and patented SlipCam™ Technology, rearward deploying mechanical blades that deploy and cut unlike any other mechanical broadheads ever. I have been thinking about bumping up my arrow weight, but am wondering if I even need to. Compound Bow Kinetic Energy Kinetic Energy (KE for short) is described as the energy stored within a moving body. 24 foot-pounds of kinetic energy. You will need to provide total arrow weight and initial speed for the calculation to be effective, as well as some other optional info (see below). Velocity simply is the speed in which your arrow travels. with a draw length of 29″. The added weight keeps more of the kinetic energy pushing the arrow in a straight line upon impact, especially when impacting a non-uniform target (think deer). Everyone is so caught up in the speed of the chronograph that measures the bow; he or she lose an idea how energy produces a lot of kinetic penetration and arrows. This measurement results from the relative weights of the components used in the arrow: shaft, insert, head, fletching and nock. KE is a useless number and it drives me nuts that the archery industry has adopted it. The Barnett Penetrator crossbow arrow flies with a speed of 350 feet per second and has a kinetic energy of 109 ft lbs which makes it strong enough to penetrate the thickest target. Most crossbows produce plenty of kinetic energy to use all Swhacker mechanical broadheads. In order to start moving, they had to get that energy from somewhere. Lots of hunters swear by KE, and they do whatever they can to maximize it with their bowhunting rigs. Since the introduction of the Injexion (4MM) ultra-micro-diameter hunting arrow, the field reports have been compelling—the friction reduction increases. The new R29 is an incredible 5. Kinetic energy. The professional hunter should assess arrow placement and determine if the depth of penetration is lethal. You can find scads of articles extolling its virtues and charts describing its professed impact. The question you should be asking is "how much kinetic energy do I need to humanely harvest a deer?" The general answer to that is something around 45 ft/lbs. A lighter arrow that shoots faster out of your crossbow may be a great arrow to use for competitive target shooting, but it may not be the best one to use for hunting. A 60-pound short draw bow might lob a 650-grain arrow at low speeds, but with a sharp broadhead that arrow will zip through. The kinetic energy will be based on the draw weight and length as well as the weight of the arrow and the height of the brace. All game except moose can be harvested by bow and arrow. Early season goose hunting opportunities for North Dakota Sportsmen. We have practical how-to's, hunting tips, exciting stories, and related ways to maximize your primitive experience. You will regret it. Your xbow manual should tell you your xbows k. Heavier bolts have more kinetic energy, are quieter, and more resistant to wind drift. This is important because a projectile with greater momentum is more likely to penetrate bone and flesh. The longer the power stroke and higher the draw weight, the more powerful the arrow becomes because of the energy transferred to it. Kinetic energy is calculated by the following formula: Kinetic energy = ½ x Mass x Velocity^2. Maybe an elk, tooor even a moose! How much kinetic energy do I need to get that done? This is not a channel about shooting big bucks. All of the passthrough shots I have seen the arrow is just lying on the ground or stuck very loosely, having expended most of the kinetic energy passing throught the animal. Thus, it may. These arrows are the best for hunters that are after the accuracy. Momentum is it's persistance to remain in motion and is what an archer needs. Remember to pay a little bit of attention to the kinetic energy your bow is shooting. 78 foot-pounds of kinetic energy. I'll be setting up some new Deep Six FMJ's w/two inserts stacked up front for my elk arrow this coming fall. At the end of the day, you have to assess your bow and arrow setup to decide what the best choice is for you. Do your self a favor and Maximize your Kinetic Energy shoot Kinetic Broadheads See More.

Don’t suffer the fool well who is bragging that the draw weight of his bow is set at 82 pounds…. Arrows a minimum of 700 grains. Snyper or a G5 Tekan II since these heads have a cut on contact point and require almost zero energy to open. As you can see we have a growing community that shares your passion for the outdoors. 380 grain arrow at 308 fps, with a foc of 11. The reason a RAGE Broadhead is so potent is that it does not needlessly waste kinetic energy, but, instead, uses it to create entry holes, wound channels and penetration. My current arrow setup weighs in at 440. 78 foot-pounds of kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is crucial. Depending on the bow you use and the arrows you use, your kinetic energy could range from 30 foot pounds at 30 yards to almost 125 foot pounds at 30 yards. Mechanical broadheads simply use too much energy and increase your chances of wounding deer or elk. Different areas have guidelines about the minimum kinetic energy needed to take big game animals. Arrow configuration: Carbon/aluminum/wood, arrow diameter, broadheads/field points, bullet point vs. The more kinetic energy an arrow has, the more damage it’ll inflict on a target. A 60-pound short draw bow might lob a 650-grain arrow at low speeds, but with a sharp broadhead that arrow will zip through. Both carry 100 ftLbs of Kinetic energy. The size of the deer will determine the cutting diameter required. Another is involved by the rainforest power chart start from your platform. These crested carbon arrows are built for speed, kinetic energy, and accuracy. We offer basic bow setup, bow tune-ups, paper tuning, sight installation, crossbow setup, compound bow string change, nock set installation, custom cables, arrow wraps, arrow re-fletching, bow draw weight adjustment, bow draw length adjustment, and more. The Easton arrow charts provide detailed information on how to pick the proper arrow. Next weigh your arrow. To determine what size of arrow will work best, one should go to your local. I'd much rather shoot a mid-weight or heavy shaft at slower speeds, which translates to better transfer of kinetic energy when the broadhead meets the deer. If you have any information or links that will help, thank you. Arrow speed estimator. We don’t need laser-flat trajectory to kill white-tailed bucks. You then simply plug the numbers into the standard kinetic energy formula, which is mass * velocity2/454,240. That's pretty light, but it's obviously enough to bring down a big hog and a whitetail. It looks like the regs Jerome posted are speaking of minimum arrow weight and kinetic energy, and do not mention draw weight of the bow. 100-grain, 1 3/4-inch cut 50 ft. Regardless of what type of arrow you choose, you need to make sure it matches your bow. If you have a 70-pound bow with a light arrow, you can achieve greater arrow speeds than a 60-pound. As long as you make a good shot, that is. Recommended Kinetic Energy for Hunting Whitetails. Our new practice heads are available now as well as our new crossbow broadheads, designed specifically for 400 fps and faster crossbows. When making use of an aluminum arrow and the arrow hit the target, the persisting kinetic energy will cause the arrow to oscillate from side to side. 5 inches power stroke, the Ravin R29 measures 29 inches in length and weighs 6. to animals we hunt ( deer-elk-moose-bear) than needed to kill them with. The content an arrow is created of can influence its efficiency. For your convenience Archer & Angler has some great tools for all your outdoor needs; Moon Phase Calculator, Fish Weight Calculator, Arrow Kinetic Energy Calculator, Topographic Maps, Fish ON-Line and so much more. You could push that arrow into a deer with one hand thanks to the razor sharp nature of the tip and small cross section. Since the introduction of the Injexion (4MM) ultra-micro-diameter hunting arrow, the field reports have been compelling—the friction reduction increases. Someday I'd like to hunt bears with my crossbow. In order to be as accurate as possible in this calculation, you should use the same grain of arrow for each crossbow. lbs of energy, the second, light and fast setup, generates 63. Archery Message Boards. Momentum is where it's at and momentum continuously increases as arrow weight Log in or Sign up. Remember this: velocity + momentum = kinetic energy. In archery kinetic energy of an arrow is measured in foot pounds (ft lbs)and describes the force or energy that the arrow creates when it comes into contact with the target or animal. Their drawback is they are less forgiving of tuning issues and sloppy form. A 60-pound short draw bow might lob a 650-grain arrow at low speeds, but with a sharp broadhead that arrow will zip through. You then simply plug the numbers into the standard kinetic energy formula, which is mass * velocity2/454,240. Generally speaking, the more mass you have, the better the penetration will be. Best crossbow for deer hunting. The deadliest rig I probably ever shot was a 29 inch 2317 aluminum arrow tipped with a 150 grain Snuffer cut-on-contact broadhead. You may add items to the list on the right in order to create a bar graph comparing the different items. Any bow at 45 lbs. Carbon Express Piledriver DS Hunter Features: Carbon Express Heaviest Arrows Maximum Kinetic Energy One Arrow, Two Spines, Twice the Accuracy with Ultimate Penetration ONE ARROW, TWO SPINES, TWICE THE ACCURACY AND PENETRATION The. KE is a useless number and it drives me nuts that the archery industry has adopted it. Summer is in full swing, which for many of us means archery deer season is just around the corner. Let's just look at the 22LR and the arrow. Shoot a heavier arrow shaft Kinetic energy is an important factor but for penetration, momentum is more important at close range. Total kinetic energy depends upon two variables: the mass of the object and the speed of the object. KE way less then 25. It is an embodiment of accuracy and precision with a shooting which makes it one of the best arrows for hunting. SKU: 4954X. They also state 55 ft-lbs of kinetic energy would is sufficient for most popular North American game species. KE does the work, driving broadheads through hide, muscle and bone. Momentum, by comparison, is the genius, recluse cousin few people talk about, but who has a cult following. The more kinetic energy an arrow has, the more damage it'll inflict on a target. I used to rack my brain with weight, speed, kinetic energy, momentum, FOC etc etc. Arguably the best bow for the buck, the PowerMax brings you the perfect mix of technology, performance, style, and value. Fly like a field tip An arrow can lose kinetic energy in flight. of kinetic energy to kill a grizzly, most xbows today deliver much more k. Its unique, high-performance carbon construction is lightweight and fast, and delivers the kinetic energy needed to drop a whitetail deer. Can't wait till deer season!. The kinetic energy of a broadhead or an arrow refers to the power it holds in its motion. For today’s compounds, speeds over 240fps are considered fast while anything under 220fps are relatively slow. Now we do the math. Use the following arrow kinetic energy calculator & momentum calculator to estimate Momentum and Kinetic Energy. The superior construction has the ultimate spine consistency, making it excellently accurate and durable. It is related to power stroke and draw weight. Imagine two arrows that weigh the same. 245 fps, and 54. In preparing for a moose hunt, I took Gold Tip carbon arrows and inserted weedwacker plastic string into the shafts. If you have any information or links that will help, thank you. Some crossbows are beginning to push the 400 fps envelope, so look for improvements in this number across the board in coming years. This is a combo that is hard to find even with so many options floating on the market. When starting out, most bowhunters are advised to shoot light arrows with light broadheads so they get faster arrow speeds, higher kinetic energy numbers, and flatter trajectories. Compound Bow Kinetic Energy Kinetic Energy (KE for short) is described as the energy stored within a moving body. It is also a great crossbow to use for long range target practice due to its high FPS and 4X scope. Work must be performed on the arrow to give it energy, and this work is performed by the archer. 6 foot per pounds of kinetic energy with 400-grain bolts or about 149 ft-lbs.

Used to build things like high-performance fighter jets, carbon’s strength-to-weight ratio is unrivaled. This is because energy is proportional to the mass of the arrow but also the square of the velocity. In the world of physics, kinetic energy is described as the energy stored within a body in motion. Arrow configuration: Carbon/aluminum/wood, arrow diameter, broadheads/field points, bullet point vs. The Rampage by Black Eagle Arrows is an exceptional hunting arrow with no sacrifices to durability. This will affect kinetic energy. Mass and speed= kinetic energy. In our example, the computed kinetic energy of the (5 gr/lb) 300 grain arrow was 49. Rage is the world leader in lethal broadhead technology. For example, if an arrow takes a nosedive soon after leaving the bow, the kinetic energy won't be delivered with the broadhead straight on, and the momentum can also suffer. Easy arrow removal. Momentum is calculated by P=M*V where P represents momentum, M represents Mass (weight) and V represents velocity aka speed. This is a thread for discussion of the article, Arrow Speed and Kinetic Energy, By Jon Henry. This is not anecdotal. Maybe an elk, tooor even a moose! How much kinetic energy do I need to get that done? This is not a channel about shooting big bucks. Mass Weight 4 LBS. 280 (speed) x 280 (speed) x 423 (weight) / 450,240 = 74 (lbs.

An Iranian military commander on Sunday said that Islamic republic is building a copy of a US spy drone captured in December 2011 and revealed what he said were “codes” gleaned from unmanned aircraft. “I am giving you four codes so that Americans understand just how far we have gone in penetrating the drone’s secrets” General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the head of the Revolutionary Guards.
Iran“In October 2010, the aircraft was sent to California for some technical issues, where it was repaired and after flight tests, it was taken to Kandahar (Afghanistan) in November 2010, when a series of technical problems still prevailed,” he added that “In december 2010, it was sent to an airport near Los Angeles for repair of its equipment, sensors and flight tests. The drone was then sent back to Kandahar”.
The General did not give any further details saying, “this aircraft is a national treasure for us, and i cannot divulge information about it”. But he added that Iran has started producing a copy of the RQ-170 drone,” stressing it used the same US technology in stealth fighters and bombers.
The unmanned, bat-winged RQ-170 went down in Iran four months ago, and Iran’s gleeful military proudly displayed it on the state television apparently intact, though with what appeared to be damage to one of its wings. Iran claimed one of its cyber warfare team hacked its controls by confusing its GPS guidance system, and said they would reverse engineer the drone to make its own.
While US President Brack Obama made a vain request for Iran to return the drone, his defense secretary, Leon Panetta, voiced skepticism over how much technological knowledge Tehran could gain from the aircraft. Meanwhile Senator Joe Liberman, a leading US voice of defense and security matter said boasts by Tehran Sunday that it was reverse-engineering a US spy drone amounts to little more than ” Iranian Bluster”

By Denis Sheehan MIH: Files relating to the UK’s most advanced nuclear submarine discovered in a pub toilet.
The Royal Navy is investigating after documents related to the UK’s most advanced nuclear submarine were apparently discovered in a Wetherspoons pub toilet.
First reports of the incident emerged from the Sun, saying the files were discarded in the Furness Railway pub in Barrow-in-Furness, and apparently found lying on the floor in a toilet.
The files contained details of HMS Anson, one of the navy’s most advanced vessels, but according to a statement from a Royal Navy spokesperson:” These are generic training documents that carry no classified information.”
HMS Anson is a nuclear submarine built at the BAE Systems’ shipyard in Barrow-in-Furness, in Cumbria, nearby to the pub where the documents were found.
The 97m-long 7,800-ton nuclear-powered vessel is the fifth of the new Astute-class attack submarines to join the Royal Navy fleet. Astute-class submarines are the largest, most advanced, and most powerful attack submarines ever operated by the Navy. HMS Anson can circumnavigate the globe without resurfacing.


http://whatisnuclearenergy.net is an educational site about the basics of nuclear energy. This is not very well known topic and that’s why we decided to throw some light on it. Also we love nuclear physics and writing about this topic. On the site you can learn many interesting facts about nuclear power, its advantages and disadvantages, nuclear fusion and fission, nuclear bombs and many more.
The site has been popular on stumblr.com and some other social networking sites. However, there could be much more information about the topic on it, we will do our best to expand the site and make it really useful place.
Here are some posts from the site:
* http://whatisnuclearenergy.net/advantages-of-nuclear-energy/ – the advantages of nuclear energy.
* http://whatisnuclearenergy.net/nuclear-energy-pros-and-cons/ – the pros and the cons of nuclear power.
* http://whatisnuclearenergy.net/the-10-most-powerful-atomic-explosions/ – here you can see the top 10 most powerful nuclear bomb explosions (video).
Waiting for your feedback about it!


My name is John Isaac and I am reporting about my trip to Whiteman Air Force Base in Central Missouri.
blousing straps. And I got a B-2 Bomber shirt, a B-2 notepad and a B-2 pin. I also got a 509th missile wing pin and another in the shape of a shield. I really liked it.
Next we went to Oscar One - it was a huge underground bunker, like a castle, that had huge missiles in it.
I got to pretend to launch a missile and I got to try to close an 11 ton door.
There were two hatches - there was another door that weighed 8 tons, but I didn’t get to close it. The door on top of the missile could either slide open slowly or be blown off with explosives in an emergency. When the Air Force tested blowing the door off, it hit the 8 foot fence and slid the fence so that it took everything on the surface with it.
Then the second part of the tour was the B-2 Bomber. The B-2 Bomber was really cool. It had lots of buttons and computers and nuclear bombs.
You can read Hubby's version here.


SSN 795 will be the second naval ship to bear the name Hyman G. Rickover. The first was a Los Angeles-class attack submarine, SSN 709, christened on August 27, 1983 and commissioned July 21, 1984. Mrs. Eleonore B. Rickover, the wife of Admiral Rickover, was the ship sponsor. SSN 709 was the only Los Angeles-class submarine not named after a U.S. city or town, and the first ship of the United States Navy to be named for Admiral Rickover, father of the nuclear Navy. She was decommissioned on December 14, 2006.
The submarine Hyman G. Rickover (SSN 795) is the 22nd ship of the Virginia Class, which has been designed from the keel up for the full range of 21st-century mission requirements, including anti-submarine and surface ship warfare and special operations support.
These submarines excel in littoral and open-ocean environments and collect intelligence critical to irregular warfare efforts with advanced intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities. Unobtrusive, non-provocative and connected with land, air, sea and space-based assets, these versatile and powerful vessels are a core component of the Navy fleet.
Ships of the Virginia Class embody the commitment by the Navy and industry to reduce costs without decreasing capabilities through a multi-year procurement strategy, continuous improvements in construction practices and cost-reduction design changes. So far, 28 Virginia-class submarines have been delivered, are in construction, or under contract.
Electric Boat, its construction partner Newport News Shipbuilding, and the U.S. Navy continue collaborating to reduce the cost of future ships while introducing new capabilities to ensure the ongoing relevance of Rickover and the Virginia Class. Electric Boat’s goal remains unchanged – to provide the U.S. Navy with the most sophisticated undersea warships in the world.

Armour:0.75x(Weakness:Cutter, Cut, Metal, Shadow, Gyro, Tomahawk, Slash, Screw(Any Cutter/Blade based damage types, add Flame Sword's damage type after the Mega MAN 8 expansion is released.))
Speed:0.70/0.65(Is it Forward & Backwards Speed/Strafe Speed? If not, correct me please.)
Jump:1.0x(You may nerf it to make it more fair)
Damage Type:Bright(Last Resort Flash), Instagib(Instagib Weapon), Gemini(Other Weapons)
Skin:Ballade(Including his jumping state(see YD Classes))
Concept:Also known as Heavy Laser, Hil Laser or Hil Spread, it fires a single blue-and-yellow laser that travels at Gemini Laser speed and deal 15 damage when uncharged, when charged, it shoots 3 bigger lasers which travel slower but deal 20 damage. The 3 lasers travel at different directions. Uncharged uses 2 units ammo but charged uses 5 units ammo.
Obituary:"%o was radiated by %k's H-Laser."
Concept:Uses 28 units ammo, it slightly increases speed. Does no damage. It requires a full ammo bar.
Concept:Projects a blue-and yellow forcefield around the user that deals reasonable damage. It depletes ammo as long as it is on. It turns off when you press fire again or it runs out of ammo.
Obituary:"%o was fended off by %k's H-Force."
Concept:Uses 14 units ammo to restore 15 units health to the user. Upon usage, it projects a blue aura around the user that disappears after a split second.
Instagib Weapon:Nuclear Laser
Concept:Fire a laser similar to H-Laser but unchargeable. You may rename it to something else, like Radio Beam or Death Ray(an unoriginal name).
Obituary:"%o was radio-overloaded by %k's Nuclear Laser."("Radio-overloaded" means took too much radioactive rays. I made up the term my self.)
Altfire(if accepted):Glass Force
Concept:Projects a forcefield that can take 5 hits. However, it uses and requires a full ammo bar. The ammo bar takes a slightly long time to recharge. It can be easily broken by certain weapons.
Item:Last Resort Flash
Concept:When the user has 25 units health or less, an icon will appear. When used, the user will blind nearby enemies and deal little-to-no damage to them. With the help of custom inventories, make it a one-time-use item. As in, once used, you cannot use it again until you respawn. It uses an icon I showed in this thread. It got buried in a lot of posts.
Obituary:"%o was blinded by %k's Last Resort Flash."
Colours:(The eye catching) Thunder Bolt colours
Description:The Hil is in CSCC! He can fire lasers, increase speed and more. He has slightly strong armour which is balanced by slow speed. He is usually a bug with normal weapons but with blades, he can be be beaten easy.
H-Laser:Gemini Laser sound
H-Laser charging:Proto Buster charging sounds(called "pcharge" in the files)
Charged H-Laser:(whatever that fits)
H-Dash activating:Napalm Bomb explosion sounds(like a "burst" of speed although my class is slow)
H-Force activating:Sound of Mirror Buster activating
Restoration activating:Health/WE pickup sounds(you may use something that fits more.)
Last Resort Flash:Flash Stopper sounds
1)H-Laser and H-Speed share the same ammo bar. Same to H-Force and Restoration. However, H-Force and Restoration have a separate ammo bar.
2)In case you want me to make it myself, I am (very slowly) working on it but I have my own problems there.
3)He will start sparking when he has 25 units health or less. This is just visual effect.
Edit 2:4)The HUD for his weapons will be like the Flash Stopper and Gravity Hold as in he fires stuff out of his palms.
