Now im surprised that assassinations like this don't happen more often. I recently watched a movie with Gerard Butler "Law Abiding Citizen" where there was a scene at a cemetery and he had basically a remote weapon that had a rpg which launched from it. Really good movie. I remember a few years back I thought the mossad had some kind of camera which was made to look like a rock out in the desert and they were monitoring one of the underground nuke sites until Iran discovered it.

Iran’s chief military nuclear scientist and the father of its weapons program, Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, was assassinated in November 2020 by the Mossad using a remote-controlled artificial intelligence operated sniper machine gun, The New York Times reported on Saturday.
From the start, there has been controversy about how Fakhrizadeh was killed, but The Jerusalem Post can now confirm the accuracy of the Times report regarding the remote-controlled gun.
When he was assassinated, multiple intelligence sources told the Post that the killing of Fakhrizadeh might be as significant a setback to Iran’s pursuit of a nuclear bomb as the destruction of its Natanz nuclear facility in July 2020.

I've read about drones flying around with suppressed sniper rifles a few years ago.

Never got to see one, but it was just a matter of time.

I'm always somewhat amazed at stories like this. First of all, how do they become stories? This definitely rings of something that you wouldn't find in major media, seems a little 'coverty' to me. And, you know, wouldn't this be an act of war? Just seems like if you're going around assassinating your neighbor's citizens, that just feels a little 'act of warry' to me.

I don't know a lot of things. I do know that if you take AI out of that headline that anyone with a credit card can put something like that together.

Not me! Mind you. I have no interest in that sort of thing.

The gov surplus auctions are fire right now. They have everything and I'm about to win 200 pair of tan army boots for 35.00.

Now if they have an auction for bongs I will be able to fulfill my campaign promise.

Bongs and shoes for all.

My dad and I were discussing Iran a week ago. He said something is likely to happen soon. He thinks they may be only several weeks away from having enough material for a nuke. He told me that there is a place in scripture that tells an area of Iran becomes uninhabitable. He said that area correlates to where they are refining nuclear material right now. Keep watch. We live in interesting times

Imagine if they actually got the terminology right. Thing would be a monster. Fully auto .50 cal Ai controlled long range automatic rifle. Strap it to the back of a Boston dynamic big dog or atlas.

Full auto and sniper are like oil and water...they don't mix. At least until you can negate recoil to almost nothing that is.

Funny yes, but also possible. Don't believe me? Ask Carlos Hathcock.

He has the longest confirmed kill within the US Marine Corps at just under 2.3 km. This record has stood since 1967, during the Vietnam War. He used a .50 caliber Browning M2 machine gun for the task.

Granted, this is a one-off example and they surely used a more modern set up for this task.

That's where my mind went as well. Great, underrated movie.

I like the rumor that we (USA) have drones that look like birds when flying. They land on the target's head and explode. Imagine how efficient and unstoppable those weapons would be.

If a teenager can create a drone capable fire a Glock from a homemade drone - 6 years ago!!! I can only imagine what super secret military drones could be capable of nowadays.

FPS russia did a video about a remote sniper plaform (also around 6 years ago), an eternity ago in technology.

The going rumor about that is that Iran attempting to build a nuke is in itself an act of war.

Thanks so much. I always, truly, enjoy your input. I was keeping a close eye on Damascus during the Syrian War. I actually asked you a question in another thread (can't remember which). Maybe I should just IM you, but I asked what made you believe that the US would be destroyed in a day?

Iran could have enough weapons-grade uranium for a nuke in a month: report
nypost.com...

September 14, 2021

Iran could have enough weapons-grade uranium for an atomic bomb within a month – after the country abandoned every limitation under the 2015 global nuclear accord and has been enriching the chemical element, a new report says.


We can thank General Milley for the soon to be weapons-grade uranium in Iran.

AI controlled long range automatic rifle sounds pretty cool, (actually pretty scary.) Decade ago we could program rifles to shoot targets... now, no need to with AI.

Hey everybody,

Keep in mind, God is still on His throne. Nothing can happen without his approval. We need to look to God, and not at the adversary, and his henchmen. We will weather the storm. We will be fine.

Im thinking that Dad said Damascus gets totally destroyed. I think he told me years ago. He is way ahead of the curve. He will be 95 this year. He is really smart, and studies scripture daily, and has since the 40s.

Here is a little more of this story today from another source:

dnyuz.com...


Iranian agents working for the Mossad had parked a blue Nissan Zamyad pickup truck on the side of the road connecting Absard to the main highway. The spot was on a slight elevation with a view of approaching vehicles. Hidden beneath tarpaulins and decoy construction material in the truck bed was a 7.62-mm sniper machine gun.

Around 1 p.m., the hit team received a signal that Mr. Fakhrizadeh, his wife and a team of armed guards in escort cars were about to leave for Absard, where many of Iran’s elite have second homes and vacation villas.

The assassin, a skilled sniper, took up his position, calibrated the gun sights, cocked the weapon and lightly touched the trigger.

He was nowhere near Absard, however. He was peering into a computer screen at an undisclosed location thousands of miles away. The entire hit squad had already left Iran





The news reports from Iran that afternoon were confusing, contradictory and mostly wrong.

A team of assassins had waited alongside the road for Mr. Fakhrizadeh to drive by, one report said. Residents heard a big explosion followed by intense machine gun fire, said another. A truck exploded ahead of Mr. Fakhrizadeh’s car, then five or six gunmen jumped out of a nearby car and opened fire. A social media channel affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps reported an intense gun battle between Mr. Fakhrizadeh’s bodyguards and as many as a dozen attackers. Several people were killed, witnesses said.

One of the most far-fetched accounts emerged a few days later.

Several Iranian news organizations reported that the assassin was a killer robot, and that the entire operation was conducted by remote control. These reports directly contradicted the supposedly eyewitness accounts of a gun battle between teams of assassins and bodyguards and reports that some of the assassins had been arrested or killed.




But it was also the debut test of a high-tech, computerized sharpshooter kitted out with artificial intelligence and multiple-camera eyes, operated via satellite and capable of firing 600 rounds a minute.

The souped-up, remote-controlled machine gun now joins the combat drone in the arsenal of high-tech weapons for remote targeted killing. But unlike a drone, the robotic machine gun draws no attention in the sky, where a drone could be shot down, and can be situated anywhere, qualities likely to reshape the worlds of security and espionge
