  3. ​ @ShmuckCanuck  Yeah, I'm pretty sure that every Canadian needs to earn the respect of a grizzly bear and Australians are abandoned in the Outback as a right of passage.

  4. Indeed. Tech-powerhouses with a very strong and very old military tradition. Huge GDP, high standard of living, very motivated troops. I'm glad they're on our side. That said, I do not trust the Japanese to step foot onto China. Not after what they did. They won't even acknowledge it.

  5. So is Japan. Same players as 80 years ago. Exactly the same players. Perhaps this time we can divide Russia into separate states and change them for the better.

  6. I see what you mean, but I think we just really want to celebrate this moment. Both of you guys are amazing.

  7. What do you mean by that? Does the British army have a problem with mutiny, suddenly?

  8. ​ @nelsonfraser2800  How about everyone has to do it or nobody does.

  9. US Marine, here. We think you guys are more fun than the Army.

  10. Men from hard lands make ferocious soldiers.

  11. Your fears about an isolationist US aren't unfounded. I think we have one good fight left in us before we close in on ourselves again. Stay strong, France. Europe will need your warrior culture someday. I hope we can stand with you once more. 🇫🇷💪🇺🇲

  12. ​ @brucelomax3375  France has a better Army than England. It's just bigger and more complete. England's army has atrophied. Not as bad as Germany, obviously, but France stayed very strong.

  13. Actually, it'll probably be exactly that many. These things HAVE to be disclosed.

  14. This is so ridiculous that I'm amazed it isn't illegal. Hats off to you, Marines! - (🦅🌎⚓)

  15. They're more English than you are; they bleed for the country, but what have you done?

  16. Nothing about the AH-64E is new. The Longbow is old news, Jack.

  17. Good luck, kid. Never give up on yourself. Never stop believing that you are the best.

  18. Well they need to start working just a touch faster, haha. I wish we would just spend the 350 political power and go to war economy and be done with it.

  19. The Ka-52 is arguably a far superior helicopter, but the Longbow weapon system is incredibly good.

  20.  Dr. Bright  It has better performance for sure, but I seriously doubt we'll ever see the Longbow weapon system in War Thunder; it can literally wipe an enemy team from behind a mountain.

  21.  @Husker5454  I'll never forgive the Apache for not being the AH-56. The actual helicopter is not that good. It's a cold war design and it shows. The KA-50/52 are the next generation of helicopters and looking at what the Army is buying, that's all the more apparent. What makes the Apache good is the Longbow weapon system. Otherwise, it's just a slightly more armored Supercobra.

  22.  @tellyboy17  Well, yeah, but every helicopter falls into this category; manpads are hard counters to helicopters, so pointing this out is like saying that infantry are good for artillery. Yes, they are good for artillery, but it doesn't make them any less useful.

  23.  @Husker5454  I don't think you understand, either. the Apache isn't better than the Ka-52; it's far worse, actually. However, the Longbow is the best weapon system of its type in the world and carries the Apache so hard that people forget how archaic the actual design is. The Ka-52s are doing rocket-runs because there is no point wasting expensive ATGMs on soft targets. Also, missiles aren't cheap and they need to keep those good ATGMs in reserve in case they need to shoot MBTs later. There is also the matter of US pilots having more flight hours than Russian counterparts. The last time the US actually used to Longbow as intended, it was a very different war. You can't compare either invasion of Iraq to Ukraine; Ukraine isn't just rolling over and they have the support of the West. The Ka-52s can't just loiter and visually guide missiles because they'll die.
