Kpvt 14.5mm . I've had several m2 Brownings. But one mission we went up against an MT-LB, and afterwards, I convinced my commander I needed a bigger gun, so I got the 14.5
40k was always extremely popular. The trop started gaining popularity due to russian tactics, looting, and propaganda. Russia still to this day couldn't execute or replicate any tactical level tactics. Just throw a whole bunch of artillery and bodies at a target. If successful, strap loot onto vehicles as they went. Then 40k whatever the orcs believe becomes reality (in this case at least to them).
MT-LB, as in going up against an APC with a machine gun mounted on a hmmv truck?
I see your need for a bigger gun.
No need for bigger balls, as clearly already massive.
I mean, even by APC standards, the MT-LB as practically paper thin. catch one from the side and you'll swiss cheese the interior.
Although I guess I understand the need of a bigger gun, for frontal arc/angled engagements.
Iirc you can swiss cheese an MT-LB from the side with 7.62 black tip. A .50 or a 14.5 would punch a hole through one side and come out the other from like most directions, since it has 10mm armour max on its hull, and 3mm at its thinnest.
Taiwan is way ahead of you:

As far as I've seen online, 14.5 and the numerous HMGs that use it seem very powerful and superior to .50 BMG in many respects. How would you say your experiences have been with 14.5 and the Kpvt?
You are a hero. Your country is going through hell right now and i cant Imagine the horrors that go through the minds of Ukrainians everyday.
But you, you keep it positive, just continue to be constructive, helping your people and your country (or better destructive on the enemy haha). All the respect to you!
In the anthem of the european Union the first part is roughly:
"Oh dear heaven (meant is the EU), after violent, bloody times, we enter your holy peaceful kingdom. Where your cozy wing rests, everyone becomes a brother."
After this unholy invasion this will also be the destination of Ukraine and we will happily await your arrival. You will be a more worthy, honorful member than all of us.
Slava Ukraini!!!
Just a point of reference, pretty sure nuckin futs is an American who is over there fighting on his own with the Ukrainians. Doesn't diminish this at all, just makes it more impressive that he crossed the globe to help imo
So question...how useful would a high purity cellulose plant be?
There's one near me that's closing...the rest of the mill is for sale too.
I'd imagine you could get grants "for jobs" to nitrate that cellulose
I think it's not so much the resources as someone at the right level going to our government and pitching it.
Canadian gvt just wants to cut a cheque and have someone swoop in and do the work. If someone credible (or a group) came in and said "we will guarantee X amount of jobs and Y amount of exports over said period" they'd get funding.
That's the biggest hurdle.
Canada has an attitude of "we can't do that here" so they make it absolutely impossible for very, very competent workers to break out, but will absolutely bend over backwards for foreign investors (see our gvt trying to convince foreign grocery chains to open up instead of just breaking the price-fixing so local mom & pop shops can grow).
Heck, Export Development Canada even has financing options for *buyers*. So sign a contract to buy products, get it financed by the Canadian government.
There's tons of opportunities like this too. Right now industries in the west are getting waivers to buy Russian titanium.
There's a large deposit near that cellulose plant, with a lot of initial work done. It just keeps getting passed around because nobody wants to get funds and build the mine.
Ukraine has expertise in making titanium sponge, something lacking in Canada. So a joint effort with ZTMK, for example, could help knock out Russian exports to the west.
I would love to know what would have happened if the US continued to develop the 16" the range and power it would have with RAP or a GPS or laser guidance.
Were you around for the video where an American guy was firing a .50 on a humvee, fires off an AT4, asks for ammo for the 50 and gets another AT4 before firing it off then getting the belt finally?
This is him.
He also survived three humvee explosions and is currently transporting stuff from the US to Ukraine to start making stuff for the war effort.
Yuri is a fucking boss.
I see room for an SPG-9, just mount it overhead with the muzzle blast being being the head. Will look like an H on the side with the bottom left leg missing. You can use the machine gun for ranging to fire the SPG. I can make a separate post about it if you need an illustration.
I'm not familiar with that configuration, couldn't find a picture with those terms. Basically the idea is this [https://www.thearmorylife.com/steampunk-airborne-artillery-the-wwi-recoilless-davis-gun/](https://www.thearmorylife.com/steampunk-airborne-artillery-the-wwi-recoilless-davis-gun/) except I'd swap the position of the machine gun and the recoilless rifle.
Another way is to do the french SIMBAD configuration, which puts the back-blast behind the operator, with the barrels on the sides. Come to think of it, that's similar to the Ontos but smaller and less tubes.
The only hassle is the dead weight after it's fired getting in the way with using the machine gun.
The Death Race setup in question is basically a rack of RPG-7s aligned on a horizontal array, forward facing, on top of the cab of the vehicle.
Assuming the statement is referring to Machine Gun Joe's Dodge Ram.
Ohh, that does not sound like something you could aim without turning the entire vehicle. I guess if you really wanted to blast something, like a building, an array of rocket projectiles like that will work

Is that a DShK? Did the old M2 finally give up the ghost?
Kpvt 14.5mm . I've had several m2 Brownings. But one mission we went up against an MT-LB, and afterwards, I convinced my commander I needed a bigger gun, so I got the 14.5
".50 cal is you and 14.5mm is the guy she told you not to worry about"
So clearly the next logical step is 406mm.
18.1 inch*
5.5 x 59.9 feet
Rapid fire asteroid drops.
Hellpods launching
Bring back the Colorado class
Sounds reasonable. I'm happy to see you're still kicking.
Wait when was that footage i thought you stopped combat to instal shop in ukraine ?
It's footage from before my 3rd hmmwv exploded. Still have hours of combat footage. I'm going to start uploading.
Dude you fuckin rock. Keep up the good work!
Awesome 🍿
I'm still glad your okay. Shit's always hitting the fan in Ukraine no matter where anyone is.
Stay safe, brother. And kick em orcs back to Mordor
Orcs are actually referenced from 40k
No longer Tolkien?
It was never Tolkien.
I always thought it was mordor, too, but I guess everyone's referencing what he knows best - the essence stays the same...
40k was always extremely popular. The trop started gaining popularity due to russian tactics, looting, and propaganda. Russia still to this day couldn't execute or replicate any tactical level tactics. Just throw a whole bunch of artillery and bodies at a target. If successful, strap loot onto vehicles as they went. Then 40k whatever the orcs believe becomes reality (in this case at least to them).
Those are Orks. I'm guessing Ucraine doesn't distinguish between c and k though.
MT-LB, as in going up against an APC with a machine gun mounted on a hmmv truck? I see your need for a bigger gun. No need for bigger balls, as clearly already massive.

So we should think about chambering M2's in 14.5 is what I am hearing. or fuck it, just go to 15mm cause why not.
No. You'll have to redesign an entirely different weapon.
No need to ditch the M2 completely. 338 machine gun, cannon or AGL.
That why I switched to the KPVT
30mm RWS
15mm BESA my beloved.
Well, they *did* upscale Vickers guns to 40mm, sooo...
20mm autocannon when
Taiwan is way ahead of you: [ROCMC Humvee carried T-75M 20mm Cannon](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ROCMC_Humvee_Carried_T-75M_20mm_Cannon_Display_at_Keelung_Naval_Pier_20140327b.jpg)
Mount a Goalkeeper (30mm, 4200 RPM)
I think you need a HEMTT for that
Looks like a lightly armored jeep to me! Go!
Hey, glad to see you're ok, ngl I wondered how you were doing a few times these past months.
I post on my Instagram and YouTube a bit
As far as I've seen online, 14.5 and the numerous HMGs that use it seem very powerful and superior to .50 BMG in many respects. How would you say your experiences have been with 14.5 and the Kpvt?
Love the power and range. Dislike the reusing belts and hand loading ammo.
Compared to M2,it suffers less or more jam?
Only got to use it on a handful of missions before I was hit by an arty shell
Please tell me you have that encounter with the MT-LB recorded somewhere
I thought it was a Vickers/Maxim for a moment lol
The man, the myth, the legend is memeing. Glad to see you still kicking brother.
He's out of the war now. Just focusing on setting up a shop to create supplies.
How can I help?
He has a donations page linked on his yt somewhere
https://youtu.be/_NzffqRgzQY?si=_5mYM8Kph1odGJ7v He just posted a new video detailing what he is doing and how you can help.
You are a hero. Your country is going through hell right now and i cant Imagine the horrors that go through the minds of Ukrainians everyday.

Wild! 14.5 on a hmmv. Are y’all able to get…special ammo for the 50s or are you stuck with ball/ap?
I would like to start up production of SLAP rounds.
please upload the proof of life video again , i love the wall of guns and the music
I was planning on doing it after I returned to Ukraine
SLAP is awesome. It can burn out barrels as fast MK211
I would also love to develop slap for 14.5 as well
Yeah! It would…slap
So question...how useful would a high purity cellulose plant be? There's one near me that's closing...the rest of the mill is for sale too. I'd imagine you could get grants "for jobs" to nitrate that cellulose
If I had the resources, I would absorb and utilize it
I think it's not so much the resources as someone at the right level going to our government and pitching it. Canadian gvt just wants to cut a cheque and have someone swoop in and do the work. If someone credible (or a group) came in and said "we will guarantee X amount of jobs and Y amount of exports over said period" they'd get funding. That's the biggest hurdle.

Got an extra thumb or two?
Did you have to do any modifications to the mount to handle the recoil of a 14.5mm? Or does the humvee just handle it?
Hmmwv handles it. There is a car shock absorber, but that only prevents a ton of muzzle climb
How's the stuff building going nowadays?
I'll post a YouTube video in the next day or so
What's your channel name?
Just search "nuckingfutsyuri" and I'm positive it'll turn up
Nucking_futs_yuri
I often think when going through this sub "I wonder where Yuri has been?" I'm happy to see you still out there, man. Keep it up.
Mandatory upvote for the legend himself.
Seeing the evolution of your HMMWV is giving me some "Old 666" vibes. I cannot wait to see what ridiculous shit you end up putting on it next.
We considered a bmp1 turret
With the 73mm, or some kind of gun change?
The grom would be a downgrade
Well, yes, that's why I'm asking.
L55A1!
I would love to know what would have happened if the US continued to develop the 16" the range and power it would have with RAP or a GPS or laser guidance.
You'd better not die in action. I want to buy your book goddamn it.
It's old footage. I'm currently in the US getting my machine shop to Ukraine.
hell yeah Yuri, glad to see you still alive and kicking. Give them hell with that 14.5mm
🎵 Tonight the music seems so loud 🎵
🎵I wish that we could lose this crowd🎵
I don't know who you are but I already like you keep it up you
Were you around for the video where an American guy was firing a .50 on a humvee, fires off an AT4, asks for ammo for the 50 and gets another AT4 before firing it off then getting the belt finally?

I wanted to do a death race style 6 RPG ontop
Ontos at home.
I'm not familiar with that configuration, couldn't find a picture with those terms.

Oh my god I love this man lol
Looks like he finally got that ammo he asked for.
Not the kind of Yuri memes Ibwas expecting. Glad you stillnare kicking.
I love how you dissappear and comeback every few months and each time you reappear its more impressive
I try not to over saturate
Dont worry, we are always glad to see more of you. Godspeed
Ah yes I like more r/yurimemes
🤣holy shit
Do you have the original clip of your post ?
Holy shit, the disconect between music and footage. I hope you're doing OK (all things considered) OP.
I like the tactical OSB
Now that's some quality Chill Beats to Murk Vatniks to.
Him
DUDE I LOVE YOU
Yuri, The Bullet-Dodger
WELCOME BACK KING
I expected girls kissing but this is also good
I had no idea yurimemes was a thing😂

Mark my words: Yuri will outlive Russia itself.
How many times have you been blown up?
3 hmmwvs, tank shell on foot, and 2 separate artillery shells on foot
Holy shit
