@@bombomos pats penis area, can tell you are packing sir.

I go into too much detail and get people confused but it's nice when you have a customer that's educated enough to understand and appreciate the details like james can.

As a engineer, I must say..... you are so right sir.

As an engineer, I am not allowed to talk to the government more than I am not allowed to talk to customers.

@@marcondespaulo Benji is easy because he speaks in rhythms

@@user-cr4sc1ht9t Really though you don't get paid much more as an engineer. Yes its more, but shockingly not as much as you'd think. I hear people insisting $20/hour isn't enough to flip burgers, and within months I could design a robot for cheap that would replace thousands of burger flippers in chain restaurants (fewer sick days, shows up when you want it, can work without smoke breaks, won't sneeze on your food, probes the patties with thermocouples for the most consistent burgers, won't be coming in smelling like weed, and pay for itself within a year). Considering I could save companies millions with a simple design, you'd think brilliant guys like that dude would get a quarter mil, but that's simply not the case. For reference, I was doing heavy military aircraft structure mod designs and was getting only $65k/year couple years ago in Texas. Design engineers are not paid all that amazing, unless you get into a high demand spot (like I am now) where the customer would be screwed if you were gone and then you have some leverage (I now make more than double what I did in Texas, but due to inflation and some higher taxes where I'm at the pay is still rather significant but its not like double what a good salesman would be)

Read my mind…be cool to edit in closeups of James smile increase as the details get deeper…just hear the guys voice and see James face…lol….I would say it cost as much as hipoints whole operation worldwide is worth…1000yrds extra…sign me up…put 4 NF 7x35s on er and a tripod..

That's what you call a shit eating grin. Ya know one you just can't wipe off your face.

Jai shree Ram bjp rammy Andotra ok

Gonna go out on a limb here and say that homie engineer is way ahead of us on that one. I'd wager a pretty penny he already has in the works, or possibly a functioning prototype, a one man usable portable system of some type. At the very least he's probably got some kind of breakdown/transport case for moving it with potentially a stationary mounting point on the same f'in box. This guy is a straight up mad lad video game gun designer who got lucky enough to make it real.

Slap one of these bad boys on the back of a Boston Dynamics robot dog and we've reached midnight, baby.

Unless that exoskeleton has tremendous mass, a stabilization system, or a system for anchoring to the ground before you fire you do NOT want that on your shoulder. Physics would topple you over from the recoil.

@Hacker X The same applies to normal belt-feds too. High rate of fire + lots of muzzle energy = you're almost always firing from the hip or prone. Machine gunner doctrine accounts for this, so anyone assigned to one isn't going to try to fire it like a rifle anyways.

I'm sure the Brotherhood of Steel will love these things.

I dunno, writing SOCOM all over something seems like a bad idea for if you need deniability.... Unless you're the CIA trying to blame the DoD for it? :P

it has film company armoury written all over it too.

I'd rather pay taxes for this than most all other things.

That’s what I was going to say. Nobody would get this if .338 was only a sniper round as it has been so far. .338 would be neat given that it does have some armor penetration capabilities (most light AFVs are rated for 7.62 AP minimum and there is no production body armor rated for .338 ATM.) and those big rounds would stop an engine faster than 7.62. Although it is not a full replacement for .50 BMG or 40mm, those light anti-materiel capabilities in the hands of GPMG guys and minigun users is definitely a big advantage, especially for a conventional conflict.

I agree with you, but I would also worried about barrel pressure and barrel longevity during sustained fire. I'm sure they'll figure it out!

@@nayanjittilak2584 Variable rate of fire would help with that partially. Especially at increased ranges as to make sure rounds are on target. etc

Sad we won’t see .338 Norma surplus… 😢

Not just that the onboard power pack that’s quick swap is nuts considering with onboard power you can mount the thing anywhere

Once I heard him talking price vs ammunition, I hoped someone would quote Heavy. Comment section didn't disappoint, thank you.

"Who touched my Sacha!"

The only real downside suppressors ever had was some combination of durability, gas hitting the face and mounting and depending on the gun and the ammunition overgassed guns. Once you solve those there aren't really any downsides aside from a longer gun.

Well said. Helicopter crashes / shoot downs are a big problem in many ways, and one of the reasons why the "V-280Valor" looks so interesting, here is a video talking about it (and crashes), but this video (I have seen others) doesn't mention that if an engine "fails" the other engine can actually fly the chopper enough to make a safe landing (depending on altitude, type of failure, speed, etc), looks great, will wait for news about it once released / operational. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f5OCm7FptMq9p58.html

@@ADB-zf5zr The twin engine config in the blackhawk can also limp home and make a landing on one engine- And it doesn't require more than a hundred miles an hour of airspeed to do it. The valor, to my knowledge (I could be wrong) is also incapable of autorotation. All the V280 has over the blackhawk in that regard is the likelihood due to spacing that one engine survives when the other is kaput. That said, it introduces possibilities like the jamming of an engine at angle that a conventional helicopter does not have.

The fact that it uses its own on-board power pack is an absolute game changer. It wouldn't matter that the entire power system of the helo was wrecked, just plug in a fresh battery, and your only concern is how long your ammo holds out.

@@TR_P Tilitrotors suck at autorotation, doesn't mean they cant. Gliding and landing like an airplane that lost power is safer anyway.

@@TR_P Just watched a video from Megaprojects on the V280 a little while ago, and the video I saw stated it did have autorotation.

@@hambonesmithsonian8085 yes I did, I have come up with multiple ideas for guns and accessories in the last almost 20 years but haven't been able to get my ideas out before others, I have a 3d cad drawing of a bull pup design that I started working on in 2005 that was going to be multi caliber but then Desert tech came out with the MDR in 2014 which has a bunch of my ideas so there's no point in working on that one anymore. My idea for a minigun suppresor was more like a large can that would clamp into the end of the barrel cluster so it wouldn't require permanent modifications. It wasn't a very serious idea, not like I have access to a mingun but it was in the back of my head for several years now.

I got a plan to get rid of the Hughes Amendment. It's got a couple different parts so bear with me. 1. I think we need to go convince gun shops to boycott selling guns to the government including the military. Some gun companies have already started boycotting the police: Like Barrett This has to be expanded upon. 2. Convince people to stop voting for anti-gun politicians. Ideally they should stop voting altogether since voting just doesn't work but they should at least stop voting for politicians that support gun control. If the politicians are out of office they can't run anti-gun laws anymore. 3. Boycott gun businesses that support gun control like Machine Gun Vegas Ruger might be worth boycotting too like Ruger who supported magazine capacity limits. If a gun company supports gun control they ain't worth buying from. 4. Raise awareness buy making videos and other material against the Hughes amendment. If gun activists would go to go shows and pass out pamphlets against the Hughes amendment and other crap maybe more people would do the things this list about it. 5. Get more people into guns as a whole. If more people buy guns and use them for protection that would send the message that people are willing to hang on to them and not give them up. That's what I got for now.

Even if that happens not only can most of us not afford this gun we ABSOLUTELY can't afford to feed it.

That's never going to happen.

@@hackerx7329 Well at least we'd have the option to buy it, with the hughes amendment you can't even buy it if you have the money!

@@hackerx7329 your point is?

It costs $1,356/$4,800 to fire this weapon…for TWELVE SECONDS

The 338 is like 6 dollars per round. That would equal 1200 rounds at your cost rate. He said 18 rounds of 50bmg equal per second, 50bmg being 3,5 times more powerfull equals 4200 rounds of 338 per minute. Or over 400 dollars per second ;)
