Aerial Artillery Design Study - Two Externally-Mounted XM204 Howitzers on a CH-47C Helicopter

Abstract:
Design arrangement and mounting approaches, weight estimates, balance calculations, stress analyses, and helicopter performance predictions of an aerial artillery system utilizing two externally-mounted 105mm XM204 soft recoil howitzers on a CH-47C Chinook helicopter are presented. This design provides for all the firing modes and operational capabilities required by the Weapons Command, including the ability to offload one howitzer when the helicopter is hovering. The study includes an analysis of the structural integration of the weapons and aircraft including muzzle blast effects and airframe dynamic responses. A minimum adequate fire control system for air-to-ground firing and typical ground artillery fire control equipment was included.

TiL. I’m going to have to play around with this, thank you!

I put it on basically anything that’s fatty/greasy. I feel it helps to balance out the flavours with the right amount of acid

I’ve been using a pair of scissors to cut my spagetti, a knife would probably be way easier to clean. Thanks for the tip, I’ll let everyone know how it goes!

I’m US-East and I’ve not had any issues over the last few hours - maybe its cleared itself?

Oi, mate! You can’t park there!

I feel bad for both parties in these scams. The scammer, from what I’ve read, is duped into the job and threatened with violence and death (along with their family) to continue the work. On the other side are the poor kids who risk a level of psychological damage that may take years to repair, if it can be repaired…all for a few bucks

If you’re on a scam binge, the NYT (yes, I know) Daily podcast did a piece on how drug cartels are scamming people using the sale of property

I’m also on Gnome, but I use Konsole for the ‘Copy Input to Tab’ or ‘Copy Input to All Tabs in window.’ In my use case scenario, it’s super helpful to be able to type or paste a cmd once, and have it populate multiple tabs, or specific tabs in multiple windows. It does take a little tweaking to get it to obey the dark theme settings, but once upon a time I actually created a custom dark theme, just so I could use Konsole on Gnome. Things are much easier these days 😁 I’ll have to check out Tilix, I haven’t heard of it before, but that may be b/c I literally work by myself in the dank dark basement of the building…I don’t think the cleaning crew even knows that I’m down here

Do you remember if you could get to a rommon prompt? As long as console access is available you should’ve been able to upload replacement FW. I once had to use kermit or xmodem (I don’t recall) @2400 bps to recover an AP by transferring new FW over the console cable (I’m not sure new APs even have a console port), but switches should be recoverable…the things you do, when you want to go home and not spend another day on site 🤣

My only caution would be to ensure that you use the correct FW. IIRC -L means Lan Base not IP Services, but it should warn you that there isn’t enough space, if that’s the case

It’s an old joke, when a switch (or any electronics really) has 365+ day uptime rebooting could kill the power supply during its POST power supply test.

Realistically you shouldn’t have to worry about it, those are solid switches. I have a 3524 from 2001 that’s still running, it gets bounced about once a year when I bump the power cable while recabling. I also have a 2960G that’s on a UPS, and without logging in I couldn’t tell you the uptime

2007, excellent year! Also, I swear Cisco those older switches are will run forever (as long as you don’t reboot it too often 😂)

Definitely! For electronics, Eneloop batteries are worth every penny. I think I have ~10 AA and AAA, and I haven’t bought disposable batteries in years. I try to make sure I have 4 of each available at all times so I don’t have to wait for them to recharge. I’ve tried cheaper (Amazon) batteries, and they fail much more quickly, and sometimes swell to the point where I have a hard time removing them.

Some people say IKEA’s batteries are just rebranded Eneloops, but I haven’t had a chance to try them

Awesome! Thanks for the update, and Happy Friday!
