British tech has always been about weirdos in sheds making things that just work. We should get George from Robot Wars to come up with some crazy drone design that decapitates people and mass produce it to clear out the Donbas.
So now straight up facts are noncredible?
Just stop giving money to leadership and give it to engineers after they come up with a good design.
Ah, the silicon valley startup approach.
You end up with maybe 10% good projects, 70% grifters and 20% projects that seem great to the engineers but have limited practical use.
Yeh but thats a fantastic return compared to 1% good projects , 50% of which never get finished and 49% of which never get started yet somehow 100% of them go 500% over budget.
Wait, I know I’m late to the party, but is that a bullpup sniper rifle?
Why.
I can’t see how a sniper rifle benefits from any of the positives of a bull-pup save for maybe the shorter profile being easier to store. Something a folding stalk would do just as well.
Why?
Not at all familiar with the gun. Please tell me it’s a regular rifle intented for a designated marksmen and not a real sniper rifle. I see the optic which pushes me in that direction
I mean, the shorter profile with the full barrel gives you the mostest boolet speed in a compact package, best used for urban combat where there’s a lot of walls and cover interfering with a full-size rifle.
There are bullpup snipers, tho - DesertTech makes a couple and Barrett has the model 99 (more an anti-materiel rifle).
