This is actually a non fossil fuel reliant propulsion system. Simply fire the cannon in the opposite direction you want to travel and be blown towards your destination! This picture was actually taken while the car was in reverse

The real question is why this person wants to buy old samowars. To shoot them?

Tea is delicious life. You get a craving, you don't care about the heavy metals leaching in from your vintage score.

This would legit be a force multiplier in the 19th century or earlier, especially if they up-armored the front. In fact, I bet something like this was done in the 1632 series of novels.

Right... so how would you go about aiming it while in motion? or loading?

herrcaptain@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 2y

Not in motion - shoot and scoot. Though you definitely have a point with loading. Back to the drawing board...

Juiced up suspension? That (lada?) is not sagging as much as it should.

Looks like the load is distributed evenly.
