sure. still. we are talking about things that will be used in world where robots exist even tho modern computers dont, where civilization nuked itself and 200 years after it there are areas looking better than syria looks today so, oh well. also, airships were used even tho planes came. in ww2 they were spotters for convoys and were mine sweepers and mine droppers (not really the word but you get the meaning) maybe if more research went into it it could prove as feasible design? or strapping nuclear reactor to it could work too. still, dont want to hear why it wont work, i want to hear any more not so well known things like this.
Oh, do we? Your original post doesn't mention that anywhere. Should I move this to the Fallout subforum, then? *moved*
no. it shouldnt be in fallout forum, because i am interested in any actually projects. got it? any. from any age, any state. just from real world.
Ok, then I'll move it back.
yes. any experiments or projects that were canceled and are remotely feasible in reality. purpose is info gathering for my other mod for hearts of iron 3 that i am developing as a spinoff of fallout mod, prolonging time frame of the game (original was 1936 to 1948-my mod should go from pre ww1 to cold war) along with upgrading mechanics and giving players ability to try unconventional ways of managing country and army.
Already covered above.
Done in WW2, though only 1 to 3 aircraft could be carried at any time.
Investigated by the US Air Force, but the sheer weight required to shield the reactor caused a lot of issues. The role they foresaw for this aircraft was then taken up by nuclear subs, who didn't give a shit about weight for obvious reasons.
You mean backpack nukes & the M-29 Davy Crockett Weapon System?
There have been a gazillion of those.
Seriously, mate, your english isn't exactly the best, and it's still not entirely clear what you're getting at with this thread. So how about you try to properly write down what you want from this thread so people actually engage in it?
possibly real and effective weapons and strategies that were unexplored in real world. things like ironclad airships, submarine cruiser or carrier, nuclear powered aircraft, tactical nuke launchers and guns, push-pull engine for aircraft. any you can come up with. even if it was only on paper, i want to hear about it.
the mythbusters actually looked in that pykrete ship and it actually worked. if it was in cold enough weather it could work.Look up Project Habakkuk.
It was a WW2 project to build a aircraft carrier made out of Pykrete, which is a mixture of ice and wood pulp. A prototype or model or something was made in Canada and it worked pretty well and it was almost undamageable because it would repair itself somehow or would require minimum effort to repair while at the sea (can't remember very well) but it would have taken too long to make a fleet out of it so it never happened.
The Goliath tracked mine was a german explosive vehicle remote controlled through a wire using a Joystick, it was used to go under tanks or to destroy bridges and buildings:
I only understood it from your later posts, after misunderstanding it to the point where I moved the thread to a different subforum and back. Apparently you are researching stuff for a Fallout-themed Hearts of Iron 3 mod. You want weird given-up engineering and military projects that would fit into the world of Fallout. The problem is that your initial post, no matter how bold and large you write it, doesn't really get that across at all. It sounds like you want a discussion, but you said you don't want to discuss why they failed because it's about the world of Fallout (something you never mentioned in the first post). So how about you try to be a little less irritated with our ignorance of your inner workings and properly write down what you want. YOU want something from US, and sometimes people don't have too much patience with a noob asking for information in broken english and then acting belligerent when he's misunderstood.
sure, mate. sorry for breathing.
