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.

Ah lads it’s obviously for the high explosive rounds

For those occasions when someone orders the top shelf ammo.

Also there's actually 3 ladders there. One pair of steps and two small standard ladders.

I suspect the standard ladders are shite. So they carry some battered steps to avoid having to use them.

Gotta go for the Don Sabot

Clearly that's for gaining the high ground 🙄

In 1975, the RAND corporation did extensive studies using Chaos Theory and computer simulations. Their conclusion was that the Bay of Pigs would have succeeded under the Butterfly Effect of having a ladder on board every airplane larger than a twin-seater. Ladders have been required on board ever since.

For when Jackie Chan has to fight them.

Love it. Such a niche scene too

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Nothing right now, but if you throw it out the plane after the mission, but before the credits you get an extra cut scene at the end.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

You have two ladders either side of the breach to stack shells in between them. When a shell has been fired, the breach opens, and Kentucky Billy Bobby jumps on the top of the stack to eject the previous casing and load another one.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

As you can see, it is strapped to the shelf with the shells, so its obviously a load bearing support beam to prevent the shelf from falling.

The crew lounge is at thirty-four thousand and “eight” feet.

They found it on the road, and Dan wanted to keep it, so they pulled over and he was like free ladder. Highway loot is the best.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

The government signed a lucrative deal to a friend to buy 10 million ladders at at 1000 dollars a piece, so now each everyone gets a least one ladder to lug around. We gotta spend thoughs trillions some how. At least their friends and family to reap the benefits.

Getting out of the plane and setting up the targets again.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

That's for when they get close to a WWF match.

Uwu step ladder no!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

So the short loader can reach the breach.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

kevin left the ladder there. he forgot his security access pass at home, therefore he needed a ladder carried on his shoulder when passing security check. this always works: guy with ladder, enters any building - no problem

For the wildest TLC Match the world has ever seen!

You never know when you'll have to lay siege to a medieval castle.

For going down to pick up dropped ammunition.

And why are the men's visors covered in duct tape?

Sensitivity training. Force sensitivity training.
