Come and join the Discord chat if you're feeling like branching out socially, I tried to kinda moodboard it cause it's usually hard to say what the topic of the place is

If you told me the photo of the Unabombers cabin in air force storage was from the Federal Bureau of Control I wouldn't bat an eye, nothing has ever looked more like a paranormal entity in real life

The Soviet ЭШ 6/45 Walking Excavator is like a living piece of post-apocalyptic artwork. The rust, the mismatched curtains, even the fact it's decades old and built in a country which no longer exists.

For all its ineffectiveness I've always liked the anti-camouflage heraldry of Peacekeepers, "our cause is so righteous that I'm going to be the most visible thing on this battlefield"

I'd remembered as a kid seeing some infrared footage of someone with a cloak and a rifle running from a pack of people who tear them apart, turns out it was a really cool teaser for the first STALKER.

Missile intertial guidance systems are some of the most sorcerous objects ever created, the old ones were ominous floating spheres harnessing esoteric formulas and the new ones do the same with channeled lasers

Though relatively recent, Soviet remains have a real lost civilisation feel to them, enormous and remote, built for reasons that barely exist now and slowly decaying under custodians unable to rebuild them.

Starfield reminded me when I used to go onto the NASA archives and find all the photos that were never published on the main site because they weren't topical, just hardware bathed in stark orbital light

Department of Energy just keeps winning for peak paramilitary executive department. HECU in dune buggies, classic commando nuclear guards, low-profile armoured trains, pop-out sentry turrets, etc.
These are Protective Forces at Los Alamos National Laboratory in the 80s. Found on a contractor's website.
How have I never seen this photo before? The dune buggies (Chenowth?), the pig, the blazer, the sunglasses, the blue camo, holy fuck.

Northrop Grumman/DARPA's long-range submarine drone shaped like a robotic Manta Ray with the ability to go dormant on the seabed and recharge itself is probably going to end up as an Ace Combat villain

OTs-38 covert operations revolver with built-in laser, firing captive piston silent ammunition. Hard to think of another real-life firearm that comes close to this cyberpunk.

In PLA footage from the Himalayan front you might see these nasal cannulas, it turned out they're experimenting with issuing high-altitude infantry personal oxygen generators. The next super-specific biome soldiers after the Brazilian Thorntroopers.

Network Rail snow ploughs fit so perfectly into the UK's gray dystopia aesthetic cause you'll have these idyllic rural and grim industrial areas with something that looks like a Combine Razor Train rolling through.

Current aesthetic obsession are multi-spectral stealth suits that block thermal signatures as well as visible ones to try and counter the fact everyone now has flying cameras and thermal scopes

The Colt 6520 10mm pistol from the first Fallout is some real accurate attention to detail I wasn't expecting from the series.

Armour crew mixed-reality headsets are one of my favourite cyberpunk-to-real life devices, able to see all around like the tank isn't there and switching to spectra the human eye can't see. Closest we are so far to being a mech pilot, almost wearing the vehicle.

Can't imagine what it must have been like to be a US Army officer in the 1950's, just coming in from the combination hover car and jetpack trooper demonstration, and this is waiting on your desk

Vitaly Boyarkin's "Anti-Terrorist" PM is such a classically Cyberpunk weapon, it's clunky, low-tech and uses recycled electronics to add a futuristic capability to a five decade old Soviet handgun.

The Ebenezer Pierce 1882 Whaling Gun, possibly the most powerful anti-megafauna firearm to see use. It fired a Pierce "Bomb-Lance", a fin-stabilised 0.8 inch explosive dart

I thought I'd seen the peak of Russian post-apocalypse aesthetic with the hunter building his sledge from crashed spaceships, but this is a UAZ lowered in pieces into an abandoned mine and reassembled by salvagers for more fruitful expeditions.

The Icelandic Coast Guard's footage from the Reykjanes lava fissure is absolutely incredible, a 3.5km wall of fire from the earth

Some of the most poignant elements of Soviet decay, mosaics to space exploration feats which get more impossible to replicate as time passes

Love it when military vehicles push the boundaries of hydro and aerodynamics and evolve into something biomechanical

Russia's experimental corner-shot system, consisting of a suppressed Makarov hard-wired to an arm mounted screen, would probably be the height of small arms tech if it was developed in 1987 rather than 2015.

The level of Mad Max that Ukraine's first fast attack vehicles were on when the war started really cannot be overstated. Exposed gunner sitting on the fuel tank, ad-hoc armor plating and a sword behind the driver's seat.

In a perfect world the US didn't abandon the scout car concept and we got to see the fastest cannon on wheels that the Cold War could make.

Since SIGINT is basically an arcane ritual where precious information is distilled from the sky by manipulating invisible forces, unit patches which build on the mystique are the best.

TRAP T-360-FS, a security system consisting of a remote gun concealed in an armoured box (Preventing it being disabled by sniper fire). Exact locations are unknown but they've been in use by the National Nuclear Security Administration and the DOD since the 2000's.

I like the replies insisting that "avalance control" is clearly plausible deniability for the North American Cryptid Shadow War

It's incredible that Die Another Day's very specific aesthetic vision of the DPRK manifested into reality within two decades
North Korea's being depicted as this bizarrely high-tech rogue state in Die Another Day. Reminds me of the Russia caricature in Modern Warfare 2 - villain-maxxed aura.

Hayamoto's bodyguards from Hitman 2 are extremely peak henchman design, obscure and distinct weapons with dehumanising headwear.

All the elements of the perfect subterranean military base have existed independently through the Cold War (Retractable cannons, aircraft hangars, docks and nuclear reactors) but tragically never been combined.

The Sextant Avionique first generation TopSight helmet, the sleek design intended to survive near-supersonic ejections makes it look like it's headed for a dogfight in orbit.

Such an interesting beast, she was the fastest attack helicopter ever built, could fire opposite directions at the same time and the gunner seat rotated like a Star Wars turret. Flew before the first moon landing.

Leaping onto a moving vehicle in an attempt to cover its sensors with a sack has to be the most insane anti-tank tactic still practiced by a state military.

Russian Assault Engineers are a bit of an anomaly in modern warfare, dressed in OVR-3Sh EOD suits fighting as infantry like a CoD Juggernaut, to act as a high-tech shock troops against fortified positions.

Apollo 17's heavy focus on lunar sample collection covering the longer-duration A7LB suits with grime makes a great space miner aesthetic

PLA frontier forces are the most extreme combination of high and low tech, there's troops patrolling with O2 systems, living in barracks with solar thermal and vertical gardens, then there's the ones fighting with riot shields and spears or patrolling on yaks.
