No not really. APKWS or JDAM are retrofits of old weapons with new guidance package. Belgium has no large stockpile of old unguided weapons so they get to design the entire thing from ground up. The principle is similar, its a laser guided beam riding missile shot from a heli or a jet, but APKWS sensors are on leading edge of winglets and this new thing has sensor in nose like a tiny Stugna. overall drop-in APKWS replacement with 10k manufactured per month target

just unroll the cardboard
you can distill it before use if you are so inclined, but it would take dry ice and somewhat specialized glassware (distillation of ammonia is more common and it would work just about the same way). there is food grade/cosmetics grade (99.99%) dme available. just in order to not deal with it i would use diethyl ether instead, which can be distilled with normal equipment
breaking news: fork found in kitchen
man if there was a common household chemical, like plastifier, that causes psychosis after couple months of use in small segment of population, you would absolutely hear no end of this [1]. but you see, now it's an app, oh we're just throwing hands, can't do anything about it and it's but one of inconveniences that we all have to pay for Progress and Glorious Technocratic Future
[1] i'm thinking here of things like phthalates, bisphenol A, PFOA or paraquat, herbicide linked to increased risk of parkinsons and banned in some countries. their harmful effects need a lot of time to show up and are nowhere as dramatic
Altman has been claiming chat gpt made him feel dumb since 4.5
perfectly believable tbh
that mmwave radar would have to be attached to a drone, because their manned aircraft are unbelievably obsolete. it means smaller size meaning low resolution, and as starlink emits pinpointing them would be very easy when active, much easier than any passive sat dish, and starlink is still in use. i've seen some advice on hiding starlink that includes turning off starlink wifi and using wired connection, because irgc is looking for 2.4 ghz signal (from ground?) and not for 11ghz uplink, so they probably dont have a lot of flying ew/radars
there are ways. for example, put a fake hot water barrel on the roof, made from fiberglass or polypropylene or what have you, but not metal, and put dish inside, or in any variety of inconspicuous containers or boxes made from plastic or wood or fabric. some other antennas can be camouflaged as fake chimneys or gutters or water piping or many other things






there's already a ground based launcher for APKWS and FZ275 is compatible with it too
