Also, to FerretMan, if the dinosaurs are used by a certain nation against another nation, then they might not be dead. I meant the scenario TTF was proposing for dinosaurs vs humans, since humans have better fire power, heat signatures, technology, etc.

Also, what would be the point of a dinosaur in a war, raptors are taken out by pistols of all things and a tank or even a well aimed sniper could easily take out a Tyrannosaurus. Dinosaurs would also, not really do much that we can't already do with technology. Drones can search caves with infrared, take out multiple targets once we put guns on them, etc. Dinosaurs are worthless weapons.

Well, that's off topic. How can man sized Velociraptors be easily taken out with pistols (other than Blue in FK, where she was tranqed and then shot with a pistol). You might need machine guns to take them out.

Okay, humans have advanced weapons, but what if you enhance/power up/armor up dinosaurs? Wouldn’t that make them have somewhat of a chance against these kinds of weapons.

A sniper can take out a T. rex if that sniper goes for the head or any vital body part. However, if you put armor on the head or those body parts, then it might prove a challenge for the sniper.

Okay, let’s say normal dinosaurs are ineffective weapons. Why not make a super powerful hybrid dinosaur that is actually capable of being a good military weapon. I can think of examples like Taliesaurus’s and Kigrexy’s advanced Indoraptors. Need to search dark caves; Why not incorporate night vision into the hybrid? Bullets being a problem; Why not utilize bullet proof armor onto the hybrid? Have heat signature technology; why not make the hybrid able to change its temperature (obviously from the I. rex)?

Also, the thing about my “nations utilizing dinosaurs” is a concept plot for a new IP of this militarized dinosaurs concept (if it happens). Blue, well, that is my example. Being shot by a tranq doesn't really affect how you start dying from firearms.

Then we'd likely have tanks that would cause explosions that would rupture dinosaur organs, RPGs that would rupture dinosaur organs, etc. TBH a tank would be better than a dinosaur hands down, sure you could bomb it, same with a dinosaur, you could EMP it, but then you lose your own weapons.

Let's put the costs together for having to create, train, armor up, and feed it. That's gonna add up a lot more for an army than creating a bunch of tanks.

Kingrexy agrees, the Indoraptor is useless in the military. Both of these animals would be less cost efficient, it hasn't been hit by rounds for armored vehicles yet while tranquilizers, and it's way to noisy to be an assassin.

And then there's technology, which has already outclassed the classic war elephant for centuries at this rate.

Also, let's get back on topic.
