If we were limited to MT only and had a ~250K$ budget per infantryman, how would you equip them? What training usually not given to your average grunt would you give them? Their task is to perform unopposed and lightly opposed landings as a part of combined arms landing force in a networked unison with other forces, as well as to serve as a spearhead-ish element of a theater-wide offensive ops. I am thinking that the LandWarrior program would be a good start, correct?
Can solid-shot high-caliber AT munitions reliably defeat APS intended to countrr APDS?

The training and equipment given to the individual infantry will mater less than the major items supporting them and unit training. Are they getting unit level training doing amphibious landings? What are they using for transport? What are their supporting arms and how often do they train together?
Give the individual all the training you want, if the unit doesn't regularly train alongside its supporting/supported forces in unscripted training it probably isn't going to be all that good.
Maybe, but generally probably not? Is going to depend a lot on the munition and the APS.

210mm 40 Cal. Will shoot anything from nuclear shell to conventional HE-shell. Her forte however would be a ramjet guided shell and fire on the move capability.
Since she is of course based on Larissa, the Hybrid-electric vehicle she will of course adopt similar propulsion. Crew of 3 all in hull.
Guess this would be my first serious effort on SPH's.

On a more serious note that looks badass. Why would you choose a caliber this large though?

I mean on the internet “engineering” side- I remember seeing everyone do it in the mid 2010s for some reason both on NS (I like to read through old posts) and on other forums including Russian ones- then in ~2019 this trend has apparently died down.
Maybe, but generally probably not? Is going to depend a lot on the munition and the APS.
Well, let’s take the 115mm Soviet 3UBM13 and put it against the Iron Fist APS (I think it has some counter-kinetic capabilities)- would it work?

The B-2 is actually good enough in terms of stealth feature. Probably it's the ultimate pokemon evolution of stealth bomber. B-21 probably adopt very similar measure, The real brekthrough is to make the stealth feature more maintenance friendly. B-2 requires special climate controlled hangar to be maintained and probably a group of specialized technician. B-21's LO feature may allow your average technician to maintain the bomber in standard hangar without need of climate control.

It's also likely substantially easier/simpler to build in terms of construction.
But yeah B-21's really a B-2 built for mass production and a slightly more refined shape (B-21 resembles the high altitude B-2s before it got the little sawtooth trail) for better maintainability.

So it is likely that the USAF will get their 100-something B-21’s they want without it becoming the next F-35 in terms of going over-budget? Like the whole B-21 program seems extremely successful for now- they’ve kept it within budget, met all time requirements and did produce a first aircraft within mere 7 years- now that’s an achievement!

It would have managed to be worse than Tomcat, somehow, which was the JSF of its generation. B-21's construction would have been impossible in 1992 because the technology to build it didn't exist until around 2015 or so. B-21 requires advanced knowledge of composites fabrication, and more importantly advanced fabrication machinery, both of that simply wasn't there at the time.

B-52 is remaining in service regardless, though I question your claims. Do you have a source to back that up? Or did you pull it out of your ass?
