LinkDETROIT (AP) — New versions of the Mustang muscle car will begin shipping next week and more than two thirds of the orders include the big, 5-liter V-8 engine, Ford said Friday. What a load of bullshit! If electric is so superior to gas, why aren't they on racetracks? More speed, more thrill, spectacular crashes... You'd think muscle EV would have been a think in the racing world by now. Fast, sporty cars sell. Even those who can't afford them, or they aren't practical, still dream of owning one, someday. Most people looking to buy a new car, will go to the dealer with the latest sports model, just to dream for a few minutes, before shopping for some crappy economy model. Three of the major manufacturers dropping sports models sucks. Must be something more to it. I'm sure Bidenomics plays a part, but those sports models are what sets them apart from the other companies. Hope I die, before being mandated behind an EV wheel... |

So, you're a Drag queen... They get custom built, for one type of use. They aren't production cars, like in the article. More than one kind of car race... Electric can go the quarter mile, but how long can they last beyond? Mostly, the article is about the last year of major manufacturer's top muscle car models, not custom build race cars. Probably didn't even read the article... |

Swan wrote:LOL, while I hate EV the fact is that a Tesla can out accelerate a vette easily I'm with Swan on this one. Combustion engine cars are the most fuel efficient and can carry 400 miles of fuel, but electric bypasses the physics limitation of expanding gases and allows acceleration far more linearly per an increase in voltage. Electric cars are the acceleration champs. This is why the future of military weapons is not with the standard munitions of today. Electric accelerators (formerly known as "railguns"), once developed, will change warfare completely, and even make nuclear weapons obsolete. Swan wrote: You aren't smart at all Harvey is smart.

IBdaMann wrote:Swan wrote:LOL, while I hate EV the fact is that a Tesla can out accelerate a vette easily Actually the railgun is a useless toy and as such has been completely cancelled. The Navy has announced that it is pulling funds from the much-hyped electromagnetic railgun in order to shift those monetary resources to hypersonic missiles and other high-tech weapons. The program, which began in 2005, was supposed to use magnetic fields instead of gunpowder to fire rounds at speeds of up to Mach 7 and ranges of up to 100 nautical miles. However, despite the more than 15 years that program has spent in development, it never was fielded. Navy officials continued to insist that it saw a future for the $500 million experiment as late as 2018. "Given fiscal constraints, combat system integration challenges and the prospective technology maturation of other weapon concepts, the Navy decided to pause research and development of the Electromagnetic Railgun [EMRG] at the end of 2021," the statement from the Navy said. The railgun will now join the ranks of other costly, yet never implemented weapons programs like the Future Combat Systems, Comanche helicopter, and Next Generation Cruiser projects. The end of the railgun program was foreshadowed last month when a White House fiscal budget for 2022 revealed the Navy pulled funding for the Gun-Launched Guided Projectile -- a meter-long projectile first developed exclusively as a round for the experimental railgun. "The decision to pause the EMRG program is consistent with department-wide reform initiatives to free up resources in support of other Navy priorities [and] to include improving offensive and defensive capabilities such as directed energy, hypersonic missiles and electronic warfare systems," the Navy's statement said. However, funding was not the only issue plaguing the futuristic weapon. In 2018, then-chief of Naval Operations Adm. John Richardson told Congress that the weapon had yet to reach its promised range. "That involves a number of technologies," he said. "The barrel itself is probably the limiting case, the engineering on that, the materials required to sustain that power pulse, and the heat and pressure that's involved in launching those projectiles." Another unresolved issue was a power source for the gun. Only the Navy's three-ship Zumwalt class destroyers reportedly were capable of supplying the electricity needed to operate the gun. The military will not admit however that since railgun projectiles are fire and forget, like a rifle bullet that any error in targeting even a mm over hundreds of miles creates a miss. This on a ship that is going up and down by feet not mm a hit becomes statistically impossible. IBdaMann claims that Gold is a molecule, and that the last ice age never happened because I was not there to see it. The only conclusion that can be drawn from this is that IBdaMann is clearly not using enough LSD.

Someday when you learn to read, you'll realize that my specification of "formerly" recognizes that some research has failed to provide the desired/needed results. However, electromagnetic accelerators are not useless and as electric vehicles demonstrate, provide superior acceleration over expanding gases. The US Navy is only one example of such research that could not provide a weapon whose supporting infrastructure requirements were sufficiently simple that the system could be integrated into the Navy's million-and-one critical requirements for a modern destroyer. US Navy Railgun Overview https://youtu.be/58MmOpSm4LY So yes, the Navy reached the decision to stop funding the research (and perhaps force the Joint Staff to fund it if they want the technology for the US DoD), but then Japan formally requested the US not stop research in that area, and instead partner with Japan to advance the technology. At this point, everything about the research, the partnership and the diplomacy will be completely secret. Today, nuclear weapons are the top of the line that all countries want to have, but they require fissionable materials that are highly controlled and regulated internationally because all countries want no other countries to have them. Electromagnetic accelerators will change all that. Whereas it poses a problem to get sufficient power generation and maintenance infrastructure installed on a ship, there is no such problem in a terrestrial facility or complex. Such a land-based weapon could then fire a very large mass at velocities beyond mach 7 into the thermosphere (well above the stratosphere and the mesosphere) where there simply isn't any atmosphere to effectively slow it down, thus allowing hypersonic shells to continue flying unabated for over 200 miles and vaporize multiple building-sized targets within six minutes from being fired. Swan wrote: The military will not admit however that since railgun projectiles are fire and forget, like a rifle bullet that any error in targeting even a mm over hundreds of miles creates a miss. This on a ship that is going up and down by feet not mm a hit becomes statistically impossible. This is a totally stupid thing to write ... so you should have opened with "actually." This kind of hypersonic shell has airfoils connected to a GPS controller system that guides the shell to point accuracy. If a hypersonic shell is off by the GPS margin of error, that's still a direct hit. Don't be afraid to come to me with the hard stuff. |

First of all I already claimed that the railgun worked as designed on land, however as I also stated that since every ship moves with the ocean that targeting anything effectively with a railgun on a ship is impossible which is why the project was ABANDONED.

The railgun shells aren't tiny, and could deliver an assortment of payloads. Adding guidance, and other electronics is quite possible. The railgun it's self only needs to achieve the range and velocity to get the shell moving in the general direction, and fast enough to not easily be detected and defended. Shells would be another project, and not general test shells, just to get the railgun up to goals. A shell that explodes on impact, wouldn't need to be precise on land-based targets, like a port. It'll still do damage... Railguns are meant to replace the propulsion system for most ammunition. Expanding gas propulsion for traditional shells, missiles take up a lot of space/weight. But, there really isn't much need these days, missiles are pretty much the weapon of choice. Only takes one strike to disable/sink a ship. Cost, no longer a factor. Will use million dollar each missiles to shoot down China weather balloons... |

Do you think the US Navy is the only railgun project in the world? You don't need government funding to join the fun... Coilguns/railguns have been DIY projects for decades. An electronics forum I use frequently banned the topic, as with anything 'fun', that might be semi-hazardous. That wasn't really the reason I left, pretty much any high-voltage/current project was frowned on, or banned. Little over the top on safety concerns. |

Swan wrote: I said that railguns are fire and forget, Which is not how they will be. You are confusing the past tense with the future tense. I am talking about the future of military weapons. By the way, GPS guidance has been successfully employed on ballistic systems and hypersonic vehicles. GPS has been sufficiently tested that we can safely say that it works. Swan wrote: which means that they are not GPS guided, ... so, in your mind, they cannot be, and will not be, GPS guided in the future. Tell me, Swan, why do you not hold this same position with quantum computing? Is it precisely because quantum computing is actually impossible that, along with your conflation of the past and future tenses, you insist that quantum computing "has been demonstrated"? Swan wrote: ... which combined with the moving ship ... because GPS doesn't work, I got it. You introduced the idea of ships and the US Navy. You haven't explained how any of what I did write is somehow inaccurate. You haven't touched it. You simply switched topics to your assertion that GPS doesn't work. Swan wrote: Why are you claiming that EM propulsion and railguns are the same thing? I'm not. Why are you not reading my posts for comprehension?

Swan wrote: Obviously GPS works, You alternate between insisting the GPS doesn't work and admitting that it dows. Perhaps what you are trying to express, in your own confused manner of conflating tenses, is that GPS cannot work in the future. Is that when GPS will become an amphibian? Swan wrote: Face it kid, the railgun makes just as much sense as a 16-inch gun on a battleship, Which is your rationale for why electromagnetic accelerators cannot work in the future, yes? ... because GPS doesn't work today on Navy ships? You are confused. Are you under the impression that hypersonic shells are moraines that reach their destination by being pushed by a glacier? Are you saying that GPS hasn't worked since the last ice age 22,000 years ago, because all glaciers are land-based and can't work on Navy ships which is why the Navy cancelled the program? Now I understand why you are so familiar with psychiatric drug prescriptions. Take me up on the do-over offer. Stay in the future tense, presume GPS is in an always-working state, and discuss only electromagnetic accelerators, not ships or the US Navy. No, hypersonic shells are not moraines. .

Swan wrote: Design a GPS guided shell for a railgun It's already designed. That's the easy part. The lack of such a design is not the reason the program was terminated. What gets me is your inability to distinguish financial limitations from integration issues from requirements failures. You cite the Navy's budget decisions as railgun failures, and then you use that to project future uselessness of electromagnetic accelerators. You are one confused dude. Swan wrote: and submit your design to the DOD, If, hypothetically, there were no such existing design and I were to whip one up, I would not need to "submit" it to anyone. I would simply announce that I have it and many organizations would pepper me with lucrative offers. Unfortunately for me, such a design already exists. Swan wrote: Then design a railgun barrel that can fire more than ten times before needing to be replaced The solution is to replace the railgun with a rail-less electromagnetic accelerator that has a barrel that either does not degrade with the high temperature or one that uses disposable, protective "sleeves" or one whereby the shells themselves use a protective casing that gets destroyed instead. Swan wrote: Then design a railgun that has more then the 110 miles of range like the one that the navy cancelled Done. The Navy cancelled a railgun that had a 200 nm range. Swan wrote: Then shrink the size of the nuclear reactor or ship size diesel generators needed to provide the required 15/30MW's of power This the Navy could not do. This does not mean that the Navy will not be able to do this in the future. This does not mean that this is somehow a problem for terrestrial accelerators.
