hunter-killer team

Term that describes a set of tactics that involves any small reconnaissance element working in concert with a large fire-superiority element. The reconnaissance element searches out targets while the fire-superiority element lays in wait to be called forward whenever the reconnaissance element locates a target. This minimizes the amount of movement carried out by the larger and more conspicuous fire-superiority element, which would make it vulnerable, since the reconnaissance element can better employ stealth and concealment as it searches out targets for the fire superiority element to destroy. Term may be meaningfully applied to ground, naval or aerial tactical formations.

The true meaning of the term "hunter-killer team" is quickly passing into obscurity as electronics reduce the need for human reconnaissance and make remote reconnaissance more and more commonplace; nowadays the term is mostly self-applied by various military organizations to make its members feel cool and sexy.

A small reconnaissance helicopter and a large gunship helicopter, working together as a hunter-killer team, made short work of the enemy positions.

Grunt #2: "What's a hunter-killer team?"
Grunt #1: "........"

World Conquest Moderation Team

WC Mods are power tripping assholes that ban people for absolutely no reason and have zero justification and usually get away with it. “well that’s just a normal discord mod?” Well there’s a twist, they are either A full on Taliban supporter ( Noorullah ) or a fat fuck that instigates fights like an asshat. There’s also the Child Predator AKA linkwhy.

Team 1717

(proper noun) a FIRST Robotics team from Dos Pueblos HS in Goleta that has now competed very successfully for 7 years. Their success has led to an entry that is full of lies. Team 1717 is led by a teacher from DPHS who became a MacArthur Fellow (sometimes called the Genius Award) in 2010 for his work in developing the DP Engineering Academy and the robotics team. A class of 32 students spend their first 3 years in the academy learning the science & math they will need for their first and only build season as seniors. Students design and build the 'bot under the guidance of local volunteer mentors (there are lots of them) and of course their teacher. Some parts are machined by the students, some by mentors, and some are outsourced (all of which are fine in the FRC). The millions raised were not for one season. The money was used to build and outfit an actual building for the DPEA which now has expanded to over 100 students per class year. It is a gift that will keep on giving for decades to come.

Team Terf

Persons of either sex who support the dignity and safety of women and recognize their right to have physical spaces, sports teams, organizations, and words (e.g. "woman") of their own, free from men cosplaying as women.

"Hey I heard Dave Chappelle doesn't think men should be permitted to put on a dress and run into the women's locker room to waive their erections around in little girl's faces. I mean he refuses even to use the expression 'pregnant people!'"

"Yeah, well that asshole is definitely Team Terf."
