  5.  @babaganoush6106  Totally agree. I have never fired the .303 version, we had NATO ammo at the time but it was the same gun. I always hit what I fired at. Plus I talked to many old soldiers and they were all in agreement that the Bren was the gun to have in WW2.

  8. when the UN began operations. The organization's objectives, as defined by its charter, include maintaining international peace and security, protecting human rights, delivering humanitarian aid, promoting sustainable development, and upholding international law. At its founding, the UN had 51 member states; as of 2023, it has 193 – almost all of the world's sovereign states.

  13. We have far too many soldiers in the army. We only need the Guards for the palace, the chaps on horses and just think of the money we can save.

  14.  @luciussander8217  You simply agree with the rest of the herd. Without thinking about the truth.

  15.  @putzak  Something to do with no tyres right?

  19. Why don't the Royal Navy give away a load of Ships and some subs and unlimited ammo missiles and fuel to Ukraine so that they can attack Sevastapol

  20.  @iamjames8200  No they have updated them and are keeping them incase the British declare war on the US.

  21.  @jb76489  You are such a Philistine, how can you blaspheme about such an amazing ground attack weapon. I put it to you that the British can't afford them like they could not afford the Thompson sub machine gun so they got triang toy company to make sten guns out of bicycle pumps.

  28. It takes 10 years to train a fighter pilot and as soon as a war come along they quit. Mind you they quit a lot anyway because of the politics in the RAF.

  29.  @garethllewellyn215  Oh yes the Americans don't have the metric system and their Nato Jacks don't fit Nato sockets either, only the American Nato sockets. Will they take over the world and will we all have to go back to imperial?

  31. Yes.

  34. The purpose of Regulatory Articles (RA) is to provide the framework of policy, rules, directives, standards, processes and the associated direction, advice and guidance, which governs military aviation activity and against which air safety is assessed. The regulator develops regulations in response to applicable UK law, MOD needs, legal changes and recommendations resulting from both assurance or investigation functions.

  35. The Typhoon Euro fighter is a very good aircraft. But we don't have many or many pilots who can fly them. Something to do with Lying and saving money.

  36. Clap for them shall we?

  37. Have you even got any AWAX? Rhetorical question I know you have nothing.

  38. Drones are the future ...Swarms of drones all flown by teenagers from a basement in Utah. If you remove the weakest part of the aircraft (The Pilot) the aircraft can pull over 20G and fight better. The AC can also stay airborne a lot longer and defend itself better. Teams of people can fly endless sorties in a war zone and still go home to the wife at the end of the shift unwinding by the pool with a large G and T. Quote from the RAF "We will enhance the new military flying training system with further investment in synthetic (Flight Simulator) training that will deliver more capable pilots more quickly and more efficiently.”

  46.  @jillosler9353  Yes I am sure you are right.

  47. Yes but no one is shooting anti tank weapons at them.

  48.  @meme4one  I am sure lots of spares have been salvaged from scrapped aircraft.

  49.  @archersfriend5900  Most (not all) squaddies are thick. That is why they get treated like children.
