Comments by "verdebusterAP" (@verdebusterAP) on "UK would run out of ammunition 'in two weeks' in a war against Russia" video.
Chair of the Defence Committee is obviously senile but his comment does work in favor for the UK military The Eurofighter uses the Storm Shadow which is produced by MBDA France however the US made JASSM and LRASM would be the better option for several reasons The LRASM can be used on the UK, P-8s and F-35s. It has topside canister launcher that be used on the Type-45 and Type-23. Adding it to Eurofighter gives the UK one missile that cover aircraft and ships. The JASSM-ER 600 mile range would be huge leap over the Storm Shadow. As Lockheed makes it, keeping the UK supplied wouldn't be problem The Sea Ceptor and Aster are capable missiles but Raytheon's SM-2/3/6 exist in greater numbers and producing them in greater is easy for Raytheon EU would easily run out their own weapons but the US would easily keep them supplied with US made weapons Its not knocking the EU weapons , its just saying by adding US capability , it gives the UK more Example In 2012, the MBDA deliver its 500 Brimstone to RAF In 2012, the US ordered 24,000 Hellfires
