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.

7,5k€ for one of those toys?! Hell I might get one myself. Even just the anti drone system would be so funny. What? You are flying your little shitty quadcopter at the park and taking pictures of the people jogging? No you are not! Hehehe.

a drone jammer might be extremely illegal for civilian use (at least in usa)

[–] Nerd02@lemmy.basedcount.com 20 points 9 months ago

Yeah it would be in most countries lol. Good things in life are always either illegal, immoral or they make you gain weight.

It's 7500 to outfit a Ukrainian soldier with all three:

Laser sight (Brolis Group)

Night Vision monocular (Brolis Group)

Anti-drone system (NT Service)

Pretty based for real. Lot of respect for those folks, I hope my country doesn't torch NATO and fuck everybody over.

How do the anti-drone systems work?

[–] Justas@sh.itjust.works 18 points 9 months ago (1 children)

They probably jam the frequencies that are used to control drones. It is a smaller iteration on already popular EDM4S Sky Wipers. How they work, you can find here.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

I wonder if a soldier could use it to microwave their dinner in a pinch.

[–] takeda@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Looking at the picture, I believe it is a jammer.

[–] RobertoOberto@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The most important part of the kit is the grip pod. The tides will turn once those get in the Ukranians' hands.

[–] SomeAmateur@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 months ago

So these are the deadly tide pods I keep hearing about
