Unconventional / Theoretical Weapon Systems & Potential Applications - General

[QUOTE=DeadMollusk;16787666]If the suit is properly insulated on the inside, then no, you don't.[/QUOTE] Instead, all you get is a very angry "supersoldier" on fire. Hell, if I was in a bar fight wearing an insulated Exoskeleton I'd probably light myself on fire and tackle someone.

Mechs are theoretically possible but not with today's technology. The biggest problem they'd have is being able to balance themselves on two legs, especially at high speeds. You'd most likely have to have some serious gyroscopic balancing going on in there or else it would tip over when trying to step over something. If they figure out the solution to that problem, then mechs would come one step closer to reality. [img]http://files.nebulastation.net/madcat_03.jpg[/img] Imagine that thing irl. :smug:

How about having a tank with 1 110mm gun that can also use a 250mm gun as artillery support, along with 1 20mm autocannon and a rack of 4 Sidewinders, for AA, and a .50 cal, running a crew of 8 people. 1 driver, 2 loaders, 1 gunner, 1 commander, and another to man the 20mm autocannon. Add in enough armor to stop a Hellfire, and two jet turbines to drive it all, along with a fire control system to instantly lock on to a target and select the appropriate munition, and you have something too expensive to lose. But that'd be fucking great I think.

Nanobot RPG from G.I. Joe, fuck yes. Also Nanosuit warriors and laser swords. Oh and a vespa/hydra missile system with a massive payload.

Nanites. Nuff said.

[QUOTE=Shugo589;16754829]I remember seeing a while ago a directional speaker/sound broadcaster what-not on the history channel. Not really a weapon but more non-lethal control.

Why has nobody mentioned the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landkreuzer_P._1000_Ratte]Ratte Tank[/url] yet? They should actually put it into production. It would be badass, a 1000 ton tank. [img]http://toogfyrre.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/ratte100.jpg[/img]

Big things = easy to target, slow, not very reliable. It have been proved through history (See cannon Dora) I prefer a huge army of small tanks than a huge slow fortress

A bomb that has an implosion instead of an explosion.

[QUOTE=Galenus] gyrojet munitions have a minimum kill range of about 50 feet.[/QUOTE] What are you smoking? Gyrojet bullets actually became more deadly the longer they remained in flight because of the fact that they were self propelled munitions. the longer in flight, the faster they were moving.

They need to continue working on that gay bomb they were going on about a while back. Apparantly it was a vapour dispersed from the air and would make everyone in the area gay that apparantly makes them unable to fight. I don't see how that would work but it would be funny.

Lol gay bomb

Bump with content. [editline]09:09PM[/editline] [b]THE BAT BOMB[/b] Bat bombs were bomb-shaped casings with numerous compartments, each containing a Mexican Free-tailed Bat with a small timed incendiary bomb attached. Dropped from a bomber at dawn, the casings would deploy a parachute in mid-flight and open to release the bats which would then roost in eaves and attics. The incendiaries would start fires in inaccessible places in the largely wood and paper construction of the Japanese cities that were the weapon's intended target. Developed by the United States during World War II, four biological factors gave promise to this plan. First, bats occur in large numbers (four caves in Texas are each occupied by several million bats). Second, bats can carry more than their own weight in flight (females carry their young — sometimes twins). Third, bats hibernate, and while dormant they do not require food or maintenance. Fourth, bats fly in darkness, then find secluded places (often in buildings) to hide during daylight. The plan was to release bat bombs over Japanese cities having widely-dispersed industrial targets. The bats would spread far from the point of release due to the relatively high altitude of their release, then at dawn they would hide in buildings across the city. Shortly thereafter built-in timers would ignite the bombs, causing widespread fires and chaos. The bat bomb idea was conceived by dental surgeon Lytle S. Adams, who submitted it to the White House in January, 1942, where it was subsequently approved by President Roosevelt.[1] Adams was recruited to research and obtain a suitable supply of bats.
