I'm guessing you hit some sort of airplane in a combat simulator, but I have no idea what type of craft you shot down. None of those designations ring a bell.

just some random armored warfare PvP where one of the faster (TD)tank destroyers, a centario 120 attempt to out run everyone but I manage to lead the shot and hit(and killed it). those guys suppose to be very fast and hit a MBT from behind but the 120 can hit anywhere and still be sanic fast
hold on, I got just the thing
Not sure if I'd want to be the guy that puts it to the test though.
Strictly speaking packed earth is almost always able to hold up a car- that's how you can drive on it. But to have a block of compressed earth remain mechanically stable when out in the open without support, impressive.
I could see it being useful for a lot of things. Just nothing that could kill somebody if it fails.

it kinda shows the basis of composites, one property of a material combined with the other to create something slightly unimaginable

So my brain cooked up a somewhat interesting dream last night. It was incredibly short, consisting of being a intergalactic astronaut who was seperated into a planetary orbit, far from the station. With no long-range communication or propulsion, and only an presumed oxygen rebreather to keep me alive, all I could do was stare at the station, the planet, the sun, the nebula surrounding it all, and wait for either rescue or death.
Despite being a little bit gamelike, it was terrifying. If we ever do create working FTL in my lifetime, you can bet I'm not stepping one foot outside our solar system.
At least it was more interesting than the one with the mysterious box at the foot of my bed from several nights ago. That one literally consisted of me looking up at it, then putting my head back down and going back to sleep, because even in a dream I give zero fucks if it isn't trying to kill me (although I think it looked like a cereal box).
I just realized something that kinda makes you think about stuff.
So Rahizel as a character is really, really big on in field rapid fabrication and minifacturing. So much so he wears a plated backpack of sorts thats actually a small armory. It contains a set of standardized weapon components that can be assembled using patterns ranging from a little rapid fire aerogel shredder machine pistol, various aerotech weapon designs, to a twin linked anti armor firelance, all the way back to the self designed and highly versatile heavy pistol he's so fond of, which is basically a short barreled firelance modified to be held in one hand and cl-
Anyways the thing is none of the individual parts follow the classification of a registered weapon as they're just parts, so you can take them anywhere. They're only recoginizable as weapon components when assembled on demand.
