What's the heaviest weaponry that even overmilitarized SWAT teams use? Carbines? Shotguns?

A SWAT MRAP would probably need serious modifications on the offensive part to be a threat. They'd need to pilfer some machine guns, make ball mounts(or an RWS if there's someone with some technical know-how), and maybe gun ports?

[Imperializt Russia]

NYPD has .50 rifles as do others, plenty have APCs and ostensibly, one has an "attack helicopter".

A SWAT group is pretty much a better-trained militia, so long as they have access to their equipment and are not targeted.

I love your flag.

In a Red Dawn scenario, if SWAT members were able to escape in some force, then even if they don't have access to equipment they still have their training and knowledge. If cut off from friendlies, then they might be able to survive on airdropped supplies and supplemented with special forces, and might be valuable in training the rest of the population. Or am I being overly optimistic?

Mine?

Since we have to,


Military brothels, do they work better on sea, air, or tracked or wheeled?

[Dostanuot Loj]

What is the effective power out put in watts of a Care Bear stare?
And along those lines, how many Care Bears would be needed to provide an effective CIWS defense against anti shipping missiles on something like say a Burke?

4srs gaiz, lgit ?

G0 away Nairna

It's Narnia.
And you underestimate the power of the Care Bear Stare.

What's next, you're going to tell me dinosaurs can't drive Cadillacs? What kind of realistic is that! Unrealistic if you ask me!

Or at least until someone needs real information from me.

[Palakistan]

So what is your opinion on the Brigade Combat Team? Is it a viable warfare unit for power projection?

Given that power projection is literally what it is designed to be optimized for, one imagines so.

Ok.

Depends on what you mean by SWAT teams, if its the regular ole sheriff dept. unit then its likely to max out at .50BMG rifles and grenade launchers although the odd GPMG is not unknown amounst the more paranoid depts.

Most SWAP MRAP 9that are actually MRAPS) and not just armoured SUVs will still have thier pintle mounts and gun rings from when they were sold off.

Now if we start talking about some of the US federal agency SWAT teams then suddenly SAMs and ATGMs are on the table.

[Inyourfaceistan]

In a PMT scenario, does anyone know what carriers will *look* like?

As in generally how might they operate?
Will they be bigger or smaller?
More armed or less armed?
Or will political science majors who just learned what a DF-21D is actually be right and they will be obselete?

The Gerald R Ford will serve well into the second half of the 21st century; the first ship won't be due for retirement until 2066. Which is a fairly PMT time AFAIK.

Based on current uh, paradigms, what is likely to change most is the aircraft complement. Which will be mostly UCAVs with incredible range.

Nimitz 1978-2128

I doubt the architects had any idea that their hull form would fight communism for 150 years.

God bless America.

So, how would you deploy a Heavy Brigade Combat Team? Would you deploy it be a Sealift ship? And also, how many C-130's does it take to deploy, say, a Stryker Brigade Combat Team?

[Vancon]

What would the crew complement of a frigate be like circa 1945 or 1600s?

[The Akasha Colony]

So, how would you deploy a Heavy Brigade Combat Team? Would you deploy it be a Sealift ship?

By ship.

And also, how many C-130's does it take to deploy, say, a Stryker Brigade Combat Team?

How long do you have? Several hundred, if each only makes a single trip, but your airfield probably won't have space for several hundred C-130s. You can do it with just a few dozen if you're willing to wait a few weeks. And that presumes you don't have to stop along the way.

[The Ukrainian Navy and Sea Guard]

Does anybody know of a way I could calculate how many ships Ukraine can reasonably afford to operate at one time? I'm thinking about moving away from single ship deployments, unless there is some reason I should stick with them.

It's actually from Turkey to Northern Egypt, so not far. I wantthe capability to rapidly reinforce my troops in Egypt if need be.

Don't mind me. Move along.
