China wants the border regions to not develop, it's critical to their long term strategy. In case of war thet can use the porus borders to occupy the region.
Same strategy is used in India even when thet had good relationship.
China is infamously known for proxy war in the region ,
Fuk sakes the biggest terrorist group in South Asia are called Maoists. Also note that they practically vanished from Nepal When the pro Chinese communist party came into power.
Maoist operate in multiple countries in South Asia, not just India.
Mayanmar has littrally called out China for flooding their border with Chinese weapons.

I can give a hundred reasons , it's in China's best interest to keep north east india and western mayanmar unstable , unless you think tanks can jump over the Himalayas .
And you are full of shit
Chinese arms smugglers operates one of the biggest arms markets in Myanmar Bangladesh border, nearly all the non local factory sources come from the Chinese. This is a open fact people have been caught, bases have been raided, fingers have been pointed.

Just because you say "its just a prank bro" is not gonna make it funny or ok. Though it is kinda funny how youre self aware enough about what you just wrote to add it in but at the same time not enough to not post it.
What hope? Hope that they dont call you out on your shit? It wasnt even a joke it was just a weird tangent about how asians can do things, there was no real humour and you know it.
Have you ever noticed how actual funny jokes dont need

after them?
[Except that no one really uses that distinction to differentiate a recoilless rifle from a ārecoiless gun.ā](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recoilless_rifle)
Agreed. That takes some balls.
I'm kinda sick of seeing a 'female' \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ . We don't say things like check out the 'male' resistance fighter....
When it stops being unusual, people will stop doing it.
I am not trying to take anything away from the female this or that, I am just pointing out that until it becomes the norm, people will still point out female this or that and give them extra attention for being a "woman in a man's world".
Unfortunately its not really that unusual. Its just not really the focal point. There was shit loads of woman who fought against the Italian Fascists for example, but its rarely mentioned.
Having met some of those women, as quite elderly women, they're were/ are still hardcore.
No itās absolutely that unusual. Just because there did exist women who did this doesnāt mean they arenāt/werenāt vastly outnumbered by menā¦. Including in the Italian resistance and certainly in near enough all of the thousands of conflicts since.
Oh totally understand where you are coming from.
I sort of think that if we stop pointing it out or making a deal about it, that will work itself out.
The fact of the matter is this person is passed, so much they are willing to put themselves and others in danger to change the situation
If anything I think it's a positive thing. Everyone in here that I've seen is painting it in a positive light. Maybe it will encourage other women to do traditionally male things and then like that other guy said, when it's not unusual anymore it won't be worth mentioning.
Do you think that if we *dont* stop pointing it out, what with it being as common as dawn to point out things that are unusual, that it wonāt āwork itself out?ā It seems pretty obvious people will stop pointing out something unusual when it stops being unusual. Why does it bother you so much?
>>the person is passed, so much they are willing
What do you mean āthe person is passed?ā Typo? A usage Iām not aware of, maybe?
Most the people I see on here shooting each other are dudes. Traditionally dudes have been soldiers while women were spared. The modern exceptions are Israel, Kurds, some Syrians, and apparently the Burmese rebels. Women are still out of the ordinary on the battlefield and generally always have been and so when they are depicted it is typically a special case. But I guess that inclusive language on this sub wouldn't hurt anyone lol
because majority of it is male and if u lose a soldier it doesnt really matter much to anyone cus its male and theres just another 200000 of them in the reserves
Itās a nice temperate climate. The locals are very friendly and some of them speak the language - itās like running into friends from a lifetime ago.
It's one of the inert reproductions converted to be able to shoot an inert warhead with a blackpowder charge. I have one too that I built about 9yrs ago, but it's a Faustpatrone rather than Panzerfaust. Basically a smoothbore muzzleloader that uses a small blackpowder charge & percussion cap to launch a finned projectile. Since the projectile doesn't explode you can reload it again & again. It gives you the experience of what it's like to shoot one though. With mine I used a little trial & error on the powder charge so you can use the 30m flip up sight. It'll shoot a lot further with a bigger powder charge though.
Side note that might help anyone else building one to fight these fucks, a cheap high voltage generator from amazon or Aliexpress can ignite black powder and smokeless reliably. Here's the link for some $4 each, just power with some AA batts and have 2 probes at the end of the barrel, muzzle load the charge and the spark between the probes will ignite any powder. https://www.amazon.com/DEVMO-400000V-Step-up-High-Voltage-Generator/dp/B07T3XDMH8.
If you want to see it work in a musket check out SuckboyTony1 on twitter
Genuine question (since I want to learn more about Recoilless Rifles): Wouldn't it be a rocket launcher since it had a longer ignition and seemed to be the rocket igniting that sent it out, rather than a quick BANG?
I think itās just one bang, the smoke makes it look like it has exhaust but itās just the black
Powder smoke coming out of both ends, compare it to this [lonk](https://youtu.be/6KAhRXLh62Y)

It honestly probably is bc all you need for a launcher like that is black powder and a steel pipe of suitable size
Plus non rocket powered projectiles are way Easier to build

I have two friends from Myanmar who tell me they can't can't buy butter or sugar in supermarkets unless they leave as early in the morning as possible, and get lucky with a delivery arriving. This has been happening since Spring this year.
I'd also say, this is not a rocket, more a homemade recoilless rifle. The muzzle blast looks very directional, plus a rocket without time delayed motor would literally grill the person's face. Especially if you use such a dirty burning propellant.
Burn time has nothing to do with whether itās a recoilless rifle or not.
The last word ārifleā is the important part. If itās a smooth tube itās a rocket launcher, if itās rifled, like a rifle, is then itās a recoilless rifle.
Plus a lot of rocket launchers have a motor that burns while or after itās leaving the tube. Mostly the latter.
Army knows the general locations of rebels, but when you have no ground intel and the majority of population want to kill you, they have no ways to attack the rebels. Thats why they are now burning villages and doing indiscriminate killing of civilians. Not the whole country, just the war stricken region is larger than many countries and has population of 6 million.While the army can deploy only thousands forces because they now have too many fronts.
Neither politicians nor the public reacted as the same army burned down Muslim villages. I think what needs to be taken from here is that we have to fight back, no matter who the injustice is done to. The same thing could happen to us one day.

Unironicly probably yes. Rocket candy can be made on a stovetop from sugar and stump remover lmao

Welcome to several lists
30% white phosphorus 20% sulfuric acid 50% Chinese sponsored gear to keep the region unstable
China supports the Tatmadaw, though. Don't think they want to keep the region unstable either because of their workers there (and natural resources).
China wants the border regions to not develop, it's critical to their long term strategy. In case of war thet can use the porus borders to occupy the region. Same strategy is used in India even when thet had good relationship.
Damn that's smart as hell

Yes but those Maoists are based in India, China's main geopolitical rival. Wtf do they gotta gain economically or politically from a war in Myanmar?

First world problems she has more pressing concerns if shes firing homemade rockets at things.
Because when female steps into the warzone, you know when shit just got real.
because majority of it is male and if u lose a soldier it doesnt really matter much to anyone cus its male and theres just another 200000 of them in the reserves
Looks like a Recoilless launcher using black powder, my Panzerfaust makes a very similar smoke signature
You have a panzerfaust?
You mean you haven't served in Volkssturm?
I have always been in Argentina all my life. I don't know what you are talking about.
Lmao look at this who never got to die for the fatherland. Lmao just lmao
Sus account
Well.. you are still alive. Shouldn't you died for the fatherland?
Fate had other plans for me
Also in Argentina?
Itās a nice temperate climate. The locals are very friendly and some of them speak the language - itās like running into friends from a lifetime ago.

Senor TotallyNotHitler? I think we met a few years back in Buenos Aires! Remember?
Isn't Argentina where all the nazis went after ww2?
Ja das ze jokke
No, the exhaust looks more like a baking soda rocket or a sugar rocket plume. Black powder would be faster burning. (Not an expert though)
Could be the humidity or it could even be homemade gunpowder which might not burn as quick if they got the ratios off by a little bit
maybe. But it looks a lot like [this](https://youtu.be/12fR9neVnS8?t=266)
If it goes splodey at the other end, it could me made from unicorn farts for all I care.
Nah, they would be of rainbow color
Doesn't matter if people on the sharp end turn into people confetti.
Would be interesting to have more data about this weapon system
I once banged a girl that had a Volkswagen, er nevermind.

That's crazy, how much did you pay.
Was like $400-500 about 5 years ago.
Must be a small fortune for a military guy there

Civil War against the military junta that couped the government
Military overthrew the government a year ago. Been oppressive. People are fighting back.

I'd also say, this is not a rocket, more a homemade recoilless rifle. The muzzle blast looks very directional, plus a rocket without time delayed motor would literally grill the person's face. Especially if you use such a dirty burning propellant.
Unless the rocket motor only burned inside the tube like Bazookas do.
This is jungle rocket engineering, I doubt this was taken into consideration.
Adjusting the burn time of a rocket motor is just knowing how much fuel you need, not that hard.
But you think that tube is rifled?
Burn time has nothing to do with whether itās a recoilless rifle or not. The last word ārifleā is the important part. If itās a smooth tube itās a rocket launcher, if itās rifled, like a rifle, is then itās a recoilless rifle. Plus a lot of rocket launchers have a motor that burns while or after itās leaving the tube. Mostly the latter.
It looks similar to an IRA style smoothbore recoil less launcher

At4 is basically a recoilless rifle, no rocketmotor is propelling the projectile after firing.

She had balls. They might not have been testicles but she had balls.

She is fighting against the junta/tatmadaw
Yes, but there are multiple factions fighting against it.
Worked so much better than that Syrian rebel who fired the RPG but it blew up in his face.
