I’m kinda curious as to how well it would fare against my old North Point.
I’d give it to this, since while neither ship has armor that can realistically hope to stop the other’s shells, this has bigger guns.
On second thought the Salem-class missile cruiser conversions would likely blow it out of the water on the basis of a large number of anti-shipping missiles. @Feanor
I like it. Not a personal fan of the BTR series it is derived from, but I can appreciate the design characteristics for what the Soviets wanted it to do.
@EternalDarkness Interestingly enough, the Soviets thought the US Space Shuttle was going to be an orbital space bomber, and not a scientific platform to install modules for some planned upcoming space station or some giant telescope.
Somehow.
You'd think they'd realize the US wasn't planning to turn the space shuttle into an orbital nuclear bomber when they found out that most of the design documents weren't even classified.
It's also why they made Buran, as an interceptor to this bomber. And Buran would be cancelled when they finally realized what the Americans had been saying all along; it wasn't a space bomber lol.
@Dllama4 This was my favorite gun in CS:GO until they nerfed its damage to "basically the FAMAS" to "basically the FAMAS only at muzzle contact range."
@Zoomzoom999 The M5 Victoria was indeed heavily inspired by the M1 Abrams in form and function, such as its heavy composite armor in a blocky form, 120mm L/44 smoothbore, and turbine engine.
@JoshEraDix2345 As far as I've been concerned, he denies that the Serbian government was directly involved, even though the Bosnian group that committed the attacks were backed by a Serbian group that had loose, unofficial links with the Serbian government who provided said weaponry.
Which legally amounts to knowingly aiding and abetting a criminal activity, a crime which is in some jurisdictions just as bad as committing said crime.
Regardless of the culpability of the Serbian government, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was going to invade Serbia anyways after the Archduke was shot, since it turned out that the one guy who didn't want to invade Serbia and was in a position to do anything about it had a bad case of being Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Who was at that point, suffering a severe and irreversible case of being dead.
@engineer40k lol if you wanted a more American DD, here’s a simple way how:
1) Identify areas of the deck which are open.
2) Cram the biggest AA gun you can put there.
Looks reasonably capable too. Four 5" dual-purpose guns to destroy anything that floats or flies, eight torpedo tubes to give cruisers something to think about, and depth charges to give submarines something to think about. Even a few medium-caliber AA guns to dissuade all but the most kamikaze-minded pilots.
A destroyer of this size and firepower would be quite a good design for its time. A bit on the smaller side, but not something to be disregarded, and certainly capable of holding its own.

+2@AerialFighterSnakes You'd have to craft that shotgun.
Also you'd need to get the gunpowder for the shotgun, and you get gunpowder from killing creepers.
Sooo... yeah.
+1This gives me flashbacks from back in the day.
I love it.
@Dastin Yes.

@Mmdben Using VTOL + Trim with the weapons turret would inhibit their operation on the move.
It would make a great addition for Marines on board a warship like idk, a supercarrier.

@MOPCKOEDNISHE Nice.
@YuukaNeko Ikr.
Next time I’ll make sure the engines are attached to the wheels lol. @EternalDarkness
You're... alive.
Good point. @Mmdben
REALLY. RICK ASTLEY? @Mmdben
I did. @Mmdben
@Mmdben It was that I had to transfer the vehicle from another build, and I didn't realize that doing that DISCONNECTS THE WHEELS.
Thanks. @SnoWFLakE0s
OH CRAP. @Mmdben
+3VTOL moves engines. @Mmdben
What have you done...
@Sqwuilex Sarcasm is quite difficult to express through text.
@Sqwuilex My apologies, but the pedantic statement I made was essentially a joke.
@EternalDarkness Is there such a thing as an IP ban?
@exosuit Yes, but Vicky is the woman you pursue for long-term relationships.
A beautiful empress. A perfect complement to Queen Vicky.
@Mumpsy Thanks!
@SakuraSaku Thanks!
I asked nicely, sir. @PyrusEnderhunter
Thanks! @CrashFighter05
@Dastin Thanks!
@grizzlitn Thanks!

@ErvenDynamics Thanks!
@exosuit Soon.
@Loopy200 The NES Zapper, a light gun accessory for the Nintendo Entertainment System. This thing here.
NES Zapper when?

Is that my tank cupola?

@JED It's basically an F-35 clone.
Neat. @Spikerya
+1Thanks! @SakuraSaku
Thanks! @Carbonfox1
@ErvenDynamics Of course. It's not a Paternian stealth jet without drop tanks.
This is ideal for situations when you absolutely, positively, must level a small town with a cannon.
@yoshicraze Thanks!
Hmm... looks nice for the most part.
Except for the magazine. What the fuck is that magazine?
