    Fact about being a PFC & being scared of anything higher than a captain. While in a barbershop in Iraq. I as a PFC almost fled out of the building when it was just a 2 star general and I in line for the Barber. It literally took the general giving me an order to stay put. When he asked what was wrong with me. My response was “sorry sir first time being around a general.” He chuckled and said something to the effect of “go get your haircut cause no one will wait for you as a pfc. I as a maj general…. Everyone waits for me.”

      Seems like it, but either he wasn't trained or made it up. After lockon with the CLU you don't have to fire and it will not explode at all. Also, most of the man portable ones are 2000 to 2500 meter max range. Stationary and vehicle mounted ones can reach out to 4000.

      Also the range is only gonna account for how much burn time the missile has in terms of propellant. It can still glide and adjust trajectory beyond that point, it just won’t be able to gain speed.

    The javelin does not blow up in the tube, it has a minute to launch because it uses co2 to cool down the optic so it doesnt overheat and miss the target. Worst case you grab a new tube or replace co2 catridge

    I loved carrying the 240.
    I agree with the whole anything above a Lt Col being scary as shit. When I did my Basic Para Course down here it was either those in the SF pipeline or officers and there was a Capt and a Lt Col I was in a stick with. We would share the OR’s mess during the day. We would talk crap to each other and all sorts. Had a young Lt come up and say I shouldn’t be talking to a Lt Col. the Lt Col pulled the LT up and said I don’t need you to tell a private not to talk to me, if I don’t want to talk to him I’ll tell him. I developed quite a good relationship with the Lt Col and he ended up being my Brigade Commander a couple of years later. I was in a unique situation where I wasn’t afraid of their rank, I spent the 3 years prior in the Air Force and Army doing ceremonial work and spoke with Service Chiefs, Presidents, Prime Ministers, the Pope, the Queen of England and many many more dignitaries. I found a lot of staff officers back them would be happy with you talking to them like that as lot as they knew you respected them as a person and their rank. If you just respected the rank you wouldn’t get away with it but if you respected them they were great.

      @@Danspy501st There is a non thermal view but I believe that to “lock on” it has to be in thermal ( I believe the CLU- aiming system, sends the thermal image to the missile) this is what the missile uses to guide itself onto the target just constantly updating the image and keeping the thermal image it was locked on in the center till impact.

    It doesn't blow up you just expend the cooling unit, you have another with it and the missile doesn't explode. You forgot to mention the tracking gates. And it matters if you had it on direct or top attack.

    Also, Eli, in response to your story about the General you smartassed, I had a buddy in Campbell who was on Squadron Staff Duty and bro fell asleep. I mean dude was leaned back in his chair, mouth open, wall was his pillow. SCO walks in and dude’s done, doesn’t call attention or respond at ALL. At first he didn’t realize something was wrong, said ‘Good morning’ and kept going to his office. Came out few minutes later and went over to dude and called his name a couple times to wake him up, and asked him if he was ok, and if he was tired. I shit you not dude was so out of it he responded with ‘morning sir, I’m ok. FUCK ya I’m tired as fuck dawg’ and that was that. Needless to say life was not great for my buddy for about a month or 2 after that 😂

    You should look into getting Andy Stumpf on the podcast. He's currently the owner of a Black Rifle Coffee location in Montana but before that he was a Navy SEAL (served in Development Group during the early GWOT, got injured in 2005, rehabbed himself while working as a BUD/S instructor, and then returned to Afghanistan a final time in 2010. He walked around with a .300 Winchester Magnum rifle, a SCAR-17 and a Javelin. He was the first to use the Javelin as an anti-personnel weapon. There was a reason for this; the enemy had by this point learned the effective range of standard weapons and were staying well out of it with PKMs, DShk and so on. Andy put a stop to that shit by launching around 13-14 Javelins at them.
    He has his own podcast called Cleared Hot.
    You may have run into him during the 80th Anniversary Normandy Drop as he was with Tim Kennedy, Evan Hafer, JT, Logan Stark and other members of the team.
    Love the podcasts, keep up the great (humorous, informative and inspiring) work.
