It's kinda stupid I guess, but it's basically how you weed out the sissies. By the end of my time in undergrad I felt like everyone who was left was as capable as I was to a man.

Agreed.

first off (if there is anyone still posting on this topic) screw all you small minded people that think that an ac would be a useless hunk of a paper weight!

 

now i can understand where all you are coming from but (in referance to the first page with the stat comparisen) why in the world if we had scaners and cameras and missles that could go over and scan 1000 miles away why would we put any thing lesser in a cuting edge peace of machinery? hum???

 

another thing is we have everything to do it with! the robots from toyota(for a back drop for the balancing system) a fusion reactor for the massive amounts of power that would be needed the only thing we dont have is a drve system powerfull enough to move the arms and legs. and there is propably no way to make it fly ( but this shows promise magneto plasma dynamic thruster. look it up

the F-16 necron??

 

the AC would also have those missles and computing capasity.

 

what now?! its a draw

 

the biggest plus for an AC would be pure intimadation factor! if i see a giant robot bristling with guns im runnin

 

no if ands or buts( above pun)

Who be posting of planes while I try to sleep?

It's no draw, the plane wins handily. Even if we assume that somehow, the AC has the same missile and computing capacity, the plane has kinetic advantages to make better use of the missiles, aerodynamic efficiency to remain in combat longer (unless the AC simply doesn't move, but then it's a target, and even then the plane can refuel) while also carrying more weapons, is able to use stealth, and will be much faster.

 

If you look up air based weapons, you'd notice that aircraft launched missiles are usually smaller than ground launched missiles, but at the same time have better range. This is because air launched missiles can borrow potential and kinetic energy from the aircraft.

 

As far as intimidation goes, an easily toppled over robot is not scary.

 

This post is short yes, but I'm trying to sleep.

 

Also good job Fury, you've gone to college and doesn't afraid of anything. You should join the aerodynamic engineering side, we have planes with robots in them!

OK you got me there yes.

 

but this isent a one sided battle vs planes.

in a real life combat there would be more then one weapon system on the ground.

what im saying is is that the AC would have planes of its own on its side.

 

 

what im trying to say is the AC is more like a tank not a plane you don't use a tank to shoot down a plane :blink:

A tank. just 3x bigger and several different weapons to decide from.

 

i will admit though that they would be slow, they wouldn't have the boosters like in the games for a loooonnnggg time i agree with everyone there

 

but again this shows promise promise

 

and also the Honda asimo robot link ( i already know about the power consumption)

But we already have tanks, they're already too big, and they have as many weapons to choose from as an AC, especially if we consider an armor group as a whole that will have a variety of vehicles.

 

but again this shows promise promise

 

 

It won't change the fact that they would need many many times more fuel than a plane because they lack wings, would be slower, and that said fuel would take up weapons weight and armor weight. What is an AC supposed to give us that we don't already have?

Intimadation factor

 

...I almost forgot

several different weapons to decide from.

First off im going to reply to your fuel proplem, do to the massive amounts off power needed to power all the functions on an AC it would have to use some kind of nuclear power. guess what also uses nuclear reactors. submarines and aircraft carriers. whats there range?? MASSIVE!!!!!!! they almost never have to refuel! as close to infinite as you can get.

 

As for the above post the plane has missle verity. what about the other forms of weapons. you can't mount all thous missles on the plane all at once.

And where still comparing an AC to a PLANE!!?? Its not a plane!!! you dont compare a plane to a tank or to a missle silo There totaly different weapon systems.

 

AC's would be tanks just with more then one main weapon.

 

but honesty i know where your comming from why make a "giant robot" when it has little military value.

the world today has no real use for an AC at this moment. but we never know some military guy may find some use for an AC in battle but AC will most likely start out as MT's

and if you know the lore behind all the AC games MT's where just construction robots to help with heavy lifting.

 

a AC wouldent be militerized, at lest not till we get boosters like in the game.

 

one practical aspect of an AC could be a mobale radar unit for hard to get to areas like caves and other suff. but you most likely have one of thoughs already dont you. UAV's

 

So i conced an AC woudent be an AC it would be more like a super tank

you win

but lets just wait to see what kind of model

BerserkFury has in the works(if he ever posts again) but for now let the dream live on. :blink:

You know what aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines carry? Lots of planes and missiles.

They're also very heavy, weighing over 100,000 tons, are more than a fifth of a mile long, and have a complement of several thousand people.

Oh hey I forgot about this thing. The BMPT is equipped with two 30mm cannons(850 rounds,HE and AT), four anti-tank missile launch tubes(130mm), two 30mm grenades launchers(600 rounds), and one general purpose MG with 2,000 rounds. It also has smoke grenades and reactive armor, and can have some of its weapons swapped out for various missions.

 

It's like an AC, but realistic. And it's real.

ok necron that is one awsome tank now just make it slightly bigger put a nuclear ractor for a power source and give it abrams size connons and you got super tank!!!!

 

kill alll!!!

the people!!

 

by the way if we can power a mars rover with a nuclear reactor where there is no water then we could put one in an AC
