Meanwhile, armed Vespa riders in Japan…
I never made it past the first 2-3 episodes of flcl.
Me neither. One of my friends was huge into it, though, so I got a lot of second-hand exposure.
There are only six episodes.
But also there’s a season 2 now. 😀
There are three additional series, two of which were also released as movies.
But the original Fooly Cooly is just six episodes.
Yeah, but it’s a really weird 6 episodes.
That’s the best part!
Maybe I’ll give it another shake.
That’s one heck of a battleaxe
Nah, this thing fucks
You’re gonna feel a slight pull to the left during tactical operation
Hon hon honning intensifies
So are those reserve-pipes, in case the one at the front falls off?
if only there was a way to make an anti tank gun look phenomenally
stupidBASED…FTFY
Could have sworn I’ve seen old pre-AI versions of this image, but this one looks AI to me.
It does not look like AI at all
The one in this picture is in a tank museum in France I think
Is it stupid if it works? … does/did it work?
As a wise man once said:
“If it’s stupid but it works, then it’s not stupid.”
Edit: so these things are called Vespa 150 TAP
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vespa_150_TAPTL;DR: it was meant to be parachuted into the field in pairs, one with the bazooka and another with ammunition. The bazooka was actually not meant to be fired from the scooter. You were supposed to take it out, mount it on a tripod, and then fire.
But… But… Skoota bazooka
Vespa Howitza
That’s a good question. It’s small, fast and agile so who knows? Might be quite the surprise for an enemy tank division of the same time period.
Especially if it shows up behind their lines after being parachuted in.
After the last shot.
Now that would be something to behold… tons of vespas, engines starting, coming down by parachutes…
The BOOM mobile
If you told me this was captured from the Russians last week I’d believe you
They wish they’d have thought of it.
Sorry but this is bad ass
They will die laughing, but they will die.
Doctrine says this is to be used for shoot and scoot tactics exclusively.
