  1. best destroyer in the world, amazing work they put in her. Amazing how fast the US builds them too. Keep up the good work, we will need it with how China and Russia are acting
    114
  2. Not the best range, but use the Aim120C, and the AIM series has so much combat experience, being the best air to air missile to date.
    62
  3. Keep it up Ukraine. Glad to see citizens of the world step up, sadly NATO leaders are to weak to do anything.
    60
  4. Hope the US pumps out F35s faster for you guys, crazy how many nations want the F35, even the US has issues pumping them out in full orders. Hope to see you also get nuclear carriers before China. Would love to see US and UK nuclear carriers sailing with 5th and future 6th gen fighters. Keep up the great work UK.
    52
  5. A lot of newer missiles coming out with the "sky" title almost got this confused for the US Sky Hunter. I guess "sky- whatever" just sounds cool haha.
    51
  6. Can only hope NATO keeps sending them more and more advanced weapons.
    46
  7. US always creating the best aircraft, and naval weapons in the world its amazing what they can do
    39
  8. Keep it up UK, glad to see you guys sending them heavy arms.
    37
  9. Russia still uses 1950's tech PESA radars on 99 percent of their aircraft, kinda hard to replicate how bad that is lol
    32
  10. Best electronic attack aircraft. Can't wait till it gets it's sensor upgrades as it still uses the ALQ218 and ALQ99 which were used on the Prowler which is still the best to date. When it gets the AN/ALQ-249 Next Generation Jammer Mid-Band upgrade it will be even better then it is now and that is saying something since it's already the best.
    31
  11. Great to see the UK bring it's navy back. Hope to see more type 45 destroyers and QE class, hope you get nuclear carriers before China. Would be great to see US and UK nuclear carriers sailing together. Keep up the amazing work rebuilding your navy.
    30
  12. Great job. Keep up the snow training incase we have to go kick some Russian ass. Keep up the great work. UKUS

  13. Should pick the black hawk if they want the best of the bunch listed, ignoring politics. Battle tested and proven, so many variants and the best of the bunch but also likely the most expensive and wouldn't produce jobs in the UK unless licensed which wouldn't happen for only 44. They could go another route if they wanted to match the US so each troops could train on the same helicopters and have a "partnership" program like the F-35 and go for the Bell V-280 as Rolls-Royce helps manufacture the engines giving the UK jobs. So that could be a trade off but sadly it's not in the running.
    26
  14. P8 is the best maritime patrol aircraft right now, only downside is everyone trying to buy them, so production times are longer then usual.
    23
  15. Russia has proved just how bad it's armed forces are. Imagine them trying to invade a nation 10,000km+ away lol. They would get massacred.
    22
  16. Good job UK. Glad to see you rebuilding your navy. Hope to see more QE class, Type 45 or AB class and hope you beat China to the punch on nuclear carriers, keep up the great work. USGB
    21
  17. The furry hats and kilts/skirts always give me a chuckle, but different cultures and all so I respect it. In the US our Navy uniforms make me laugh too. Keep up the great work. If we have to go kick some Russian ass, best to be ready.
    20
  18. Hope to see the US send them Tomahawks next, giving Ukraine the ability to attack targets including inside Russia over 1000km away while also being able to target naval targets are further distances, basically making anything in the black sea in range of being a target. And all at the cost of less then 2 million each.
    19
  19. Kind of surprised by the short battery life, but otherwise well done.
    18
  20. Gotta love the Growler. So much classified technology in it for being a 4th gen aircraft. Expensive, but really worth it. Shame more NATO nations don't have them.
    17
  21. Great news, keep putting the pressure on Russia. If only Ukraine had any kind of NATO fighter/bomber so we could send them some AIM120s and JDAMs.
    17
  22. Good for the UK. Keep rebuilding your navy, hope to see you with nuclear carriers before China. Glad to see you near the strait pushing against Iran. Keep up the amazing work.
    17
  23. Best carriers in the world. Can't wait to see the US get full fleets of F35c on all it's carriers. Their sortie rates are insane.
    16
  24. Keep fighting Ukraine you are doing well pushing Russia back and have shown the world how bad the Russian army is trained and how bad their military equipment is.
    16
  25. Cant wait to see Abrams, Challenger, and the Leopard 2 all in action together.
    16
  26. Hopefully strong enough as then Chechens who kicked Russias ass and is much smaller and less militarily advanced then Ukraine. Hope they hold out.

  27. "virtually undetectable" Jesus, guys at least get someone who knows what they are talking about when writing a script. Hypersonic missiles are covered in plasma, any IRST let alone AESA radar can track it. Shooting it down is where it is harder. Tracking it is easier then a subsonic sea skimming, under the radar horizon missile. You literally stated hypersonic missiles fly below the radar horizon like a god damn sub sonic cruise missile which is hilarious. The radar horizon has to do with Earths curvature and not space... Hypersonic missiles are flying high not low... LOL. Hypersonic missiles are also not maneuverable in their terminal phase. They literally have to shut their engines off, can lose stability because they have no engine power, and even self destruct from the thicker air density all according to the Russians own patent. You literally got someone who had no idea what they are talking about to make stuff up. That's amazing to me. Say they could maneuver, using the mach 10 speed stated here that's 3.4km/s rounding down for ease say you wanted to move a single degree for 5 seconds at 3km/s you would be off course 15km. Math is math, patents are patents. Bad video. "Russian patent number 2579409 relates to the field of rocket technology, and more specifically to hypersonic cruise missiles equipped with a hypersonic ramjet engine. The invention describes a method of application and device hypersonic cruise missile (CRPD), allowing to solve the problem of performing a combat mission to destroy ground and surface targets of such a missile. The described invention is designed to maximize the combat potential of the CMP with the scramjet. The design mode for the scramjet are high-altitude cruise conditions while maintaining the estimated cruise speed, and the need to reduce the altitude and flight speed creates difficult technical problems due to the fact that: an engine designed to perform a hypersonic mid-flight at high altitude is not able to continue to work at low-altitude trajectory sections associated with a decrease in the flight number M, hence, the rocket must approach the ground or surface target with an inactive engine; characteristics of sustainability and controllability of CRPD with inactive scramjet significantly deteriorate, loss of stability becomes possible; there is also a danger of destruction of the scramjet design due to the increase in pressure in the flow part of the engine while reducing the CMP from the march height before hitting the target."

  28.  @fbsfgr  "Joined Nov 2, 2019" Good thing for the block button for these Russian troll accounts.
    15
  29. No one fears them, but sadly most the Afghans want this as their is no way to have fallen so fast otherwise.
    14
  30. US makes the best weaponry in the world, keep it up and keep sharing the tech with our allies.
    14
  31. Them being quite would be great and the low torque would be amazing, but their issue is range, especially with added weight like armor, towing, weapons, or whatever it is carrying. I don't know if the trade offs are worth it being all electric.
    14
  32. The s400 has never shot anything down and has only failed though.
    14
  33.  @collinsmichael5015  Russian tanks are terrible. M1s destroyed so many T72s they had to rename them to T90. "The T-72BU was officially accepted into service on 5 October 1992 by the Russian Ministry of Defence and simultaneously renamed as the T-90 for marketing and propaganda purposes aimed at distancing the new type from existing T-72 variants." They did so bad that a stuck M1 took out three T72s as told by Tom Clancy in his nonfiction book. "Well, in his 1994 non-fiction book, Armored Cav, Tom Clancy recounted a tale of how an M1A1 Abrams got stuck in the mud during the ground war of Desert Storm. It was then set upon by three tanks, Iraqi T-72s specifically. A round fired from roughly a thousand yards away bounced off, and the Abrams responded by blowing the T-72 that fired it to bits. A second round fired from 700 yards, bounced off, and the offending T-72 was blasted. The third T-72, at a range of roughly 400 yards, fired a round, which left a groove in the armor of the Abrams. It, too, was destroyed by a shot fired through a sand berm. These were, supposedly, Russia’s state-of-the-art tanks. Then, when help arrived, and the tank couldn’t be freed from the mud, a platoon of Abrams tanks tried to destroy it. After several rounds, they detonated the onboard ammo, but the blow-out panels functioned as designed. Then, when the tank was retrieved from the mud, they discovered that it was still functional. The only issue? A sight was out of alignment."

  34. Sad to read about the f35 crash. Keep building your navy up, hope to see you beat China to the punch on nuclear carriers. Hope the US pumps out the f35s faster to make up for the loss
    13
  35. Keep putting the pressure on Russia. Hope to see us send more tanks and the Migs or give them US f16s which then can learn to fly in under a few weeks.
    13
  36. Good for Ukraine, keep fighting Russia off
    13
  37. Really is sad, for those that don't know, think of the movie Saving Private Ryan. 5 brothers died in a single attack on the USS Juneau
    13
  38. Just give Ukraine Tomahawks. For less then 2 million USD each you would have a missile with over 1000+ mile/1,600km+ range while also being able to attack ships as it has maritime strike capability again do to Russia breaking the INF and Trump pulling the US out.
    13
  39. Ive always been saying it. There is nothing special about hypersonic missiles. They can't maneuver as Ive constantly had to show people with math and patents.
    13
  40. Just start taking out their ships and aircraft, enough is enough. It's not like they could do much about it.
    12
  41.  @burnyt3077  ? Ukraine has so many ATGM right now, they have no favorite as each do things better and worse. To say you think they think one is better just shows your bias like the OP thinking the UK makes the best everything. Each soldier will have their own preference. Javelin has a better range, seeker, aren't single use and larger warhead but are heavier and more expensive. TOWs(any nations) can't be jammed as they are wire guided, they are heavy is their issue. The NLAW has a horrible range since it's a light missile, but as you stated is lighter and easier to maneuver with. Each have their pros and cons. Each are used better in different situations. None are better then one another. "we have the Sky Sabre that 100% can detect stealth fighters" No it can't... It has a range of 25km, where any aircraft would have launched missiles outside of it's range. Also stealth aircraft don't fly low, so the chance of it picking it up are slim to none. It's a point defense system. The Aster 30 with the SAMP/T would be a better choice as it's range is much longer. Sky Sabre is meant as a last ditch effort to protect high value targets like the US/Norwegian NASAMs.

  42. Great job Ukraine, keep up the amazing work. You have taken out so many armoured vehicles. I wish the QE class had a CATOBAR or EMAL system so it could launch refueling drones and/or offensive drones. Seeing how deadly drones have become, even more "simple" kinds, they will be the future of warfare.
    12
  43. Way to under armed, needs to have a small 16 cell VLS.
    11
  44. Such a failure by all UN leaders. It's Bidens fault for his dumb way of pulling out, it's everyone elses fault for not helping the US as much as they put in. Terrible situation for all.

  45. Paratroopers in the US have a great song. It's called Blood Upon the Risers(Gory Gory What A Hell Of A Way To Die), posted below, im sure the UK has some good ones too. [Verse 1] He was just a rookie trooper and he surely shook with fright, He checked off his equipment and made sure his pack was tight; He had to sit and listen to those awful engines roar, You ain't gonna jump no more [Chorus] Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, He ain't gonna jump no more [Verse 2] "Is everybody happy?" cried the Sergeant looking up, Our hero feebly answered, "yes" and then they stood him up; He jumped into the icy blast, his static line unhooked, And he ain't gonna jump no more [Chorus] Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, He ain't gonna jump no more [Verse 3] He counted long, he counted loud, he waited for the shock, He felt the wind, he felt the cold, he felt the awful drop, The silk from his reserves spilled out, and wrapped around his legs, And he ain't gonna jump no more [Chorus] Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, He ain't gonna jump no more [Verse 4] The risers swung around his neck, connectors cracked his dome, Suspension lines were tied in knots around his skinny bones; The canopy became his shroud; he hurtled to the ground. And he ain't gonna jump no more [Chorus] Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, He ain't gonna jump no more [Verse 5] The days he'd lived and loved and laughed kept running through his mind, He thought about the girl back home, the one he'd left behind; He thought about the medic corps, and wondered what they'd find, And he ain't gonna jump no more [Chorus] Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, He ain't gonna jump no more [Verse 6] The ambulance was on the spot, the jeeps were running wild, The medics jumped and screamed with glee, they rolled their sleeves and smiled, For it had been a week or more since last a 'chute had failed, And he ain't gonna jump no more [Chorus] Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, He ain't gonna jump no more [Verse 7] He hit the ground, the sound was "SPLAT", his blood went spurting high; His comrades, they were heard to say "a hell of a way to die!" He lay there, rolling 'round in the welter of his gore, And he ain't gonna jump no more [Chorus] Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, He ain't gonna jump no more [Verse 8] There was blood upon the risers, there were brains upon the chute, Intestines were a-dangling from his paratroopers suit, He was a mess, they picked him up, and poured him from his boots, And he ain't gonna jump no more [Chorus] Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, Gory, gory, what a hell of a way to die, He ain't gonna jump no more

  46.  @adhx7506  Very much so. They both use a version of the same gun the L44/L55, the Abrams has better range, is more quite, has better armor, better optics, etc and is why it got the name "Whispering Death" when at a German exercise going against Leopards. The M1 takes from the Germans, British, as well as it's own American technology to make the best tank. "The turbine is very quiet when compared to diesel engines of similar power output and produces sound significantly different from a contemporary diesel tank engine, reducing the audible distance of the sound, thus earning the Abrams the nickname "whispering death" during its first Reforger exercise."
    11
  47.  @adhx7506  That would be the Abrams.

  48. The US would have the best air force in the world, both in numbers and pilots as they have better aircraft and can afford more training time for their pilots with their budget. The UK needs to stop cutting military funding.
    11
  49. Sadly the UK is now a tier two force as even the US has stated. The cuts to defense spending really hurt. "A senior U.S. general has recently warned U.K. Defense Secretary Ben Wallace that the British Army is no longer considered to be among the world’s top-tier fighting forces, according to a Sunday report. The source told Wallace that decades of cuts to Britain’s military defense has eroded the country’s fighting capabilities, Sky News reports."

  50. If the UN was actually a true international community we would have all been in the Middle East ending this for all of us. Now every nation who went in, it was a waste. That being said the way Joe and other leaders pulled out was dumb and the Afghan people also share blame for not standing for their country. Falling so fast it's like they wanted to revert.
