  • The big advantage of brrrp is simplicity. Pull trigger, things go asplodsy and/or turn into pink mist. Close air support, which the 'hog kicked ass at in the sandbox, needs to be reliable and simple. With the proliferation of GPS jamming technologies and other countermeasures, simple and cheap should carry the day.

    I don’t know if anything is as physically survivable as the A-10. Certainly not some modern composite that will be grounded for fractures after taking small arms fire. Also, the boots on the ground love the support provided by the A-10, as do the congress critters whose bases are in their districts.

    Just rambling thoughts from a village idiot, not looking to start a fight





  • I had Ubiquiti for a long time, even deployed 50 at my work network. Switched to TP-Link Omada, much cheaper Ap’s, super cheap hardware controller (software option), and much more stable, longer-lifetime software/firmware. (updates are like 2x/yr - ish). The interface is so similar to UniFi that it is hard to tell who ripped the other off.
