This is for background information for those who want to convert to 3G3 system or VDS or EABA. TL should be considered TL 12. It is likely to have a very...
Neil, Do you have any links for more info? It looks like we're talking about a glide ratio of at least 5:1, which isn't going to generate a lot of speed for KE...
As long as we're on the topic, I read recently where someone figured out a simple mechanical means to phase-lock the output of an arbitrarily large number of...

Some other related topics: Power While liquid nitrogen was mentioned as a fuel for thermal stealth and not requiring oxygen, it does depend on how much heat...
Here is a patent on an advanced armor material to provide some thought on the higher TLs in VDS that could be used for anything from Light armor to the heavier...
Since this is a very low traffic/high content list that hits topics only tangentially CORPS, let me pose a barely-game related one for Neil and anyone else who...
... One possibility is to have something that can use some of the waste heat into converting a solid or liquid into a low-density gas. A candidate material...
... That's interesting, but I'm not sure of the thermodynamics of it. Water going to steam absorbs a hell of a lot of energy, which might reduce the gas volume...
... It might not really matter in some parts of time. Perhaps a diffferent liquid or solid would be better. For similar concepts might be those from "water...
Going into the megaforce category is the idea of weapons designed to destroy or bury underground structures or heavily armored bases or vehicles (for science...

Way back in an earlier posting (not me) was a brief mention of something called "DREAD" which was a cetnrifuge used to accelerate its projectiles. Someone...
I saw that too. The inherent problems with the weapon are several-fold: 1) Spherical projectiles 2) The projectiles have a spin on them from rolling around the...
