some ww2 era colonel thawing after being pulled from siberian permafrost: what is MANPADS?
is simple. You give man a pad for cushion; is now manpad.
Imagine being the poor guy that had to reload all of these after
My hands would be tired but at least I’d be alive, could you imagine fighting in the red army in WWII lmao
I mean this thing would be beyond impractical, right?
If I recall the largest PPSh drum magazines held about 70 rounds. And it is a very fast firing SMG with a cyclic rate of 1,250 rounds per minute. Meaning any one of those guns is gonna be empty after about 3-4 seconds.
Unless they flew over extreme concentrations of troops to target, the juice wouldn’t be worth the squeeze. Changing mags would be difficult or impossible mid flight
I mean, it worked pretty well in the last Star Wars movie, didn’t it?
