Pretty much. The US Democrat Party must be among the new sponsors 🤔

Well flying the EE Lightning was summed up by several pilots as "The most fun you can have... with your trousers on!".

Nah; it was cringeworthy and ham-fisted, even by Democrat Party standards 😂

Eeh. Borodino was an expensive one for Napoleon (strategically and in terms of losses), which is certainly something for his opponent to be proud of.

@DiamondKingStudios I would agree that there's an element of Creation Myth in the page, but that's pretty much indemic to national histories the world over 🤔

...as well as all those non-metric (at the time) countries that actually won WWII 😉😁 🇬🇧🇺🇲🇨🇦🇳🇿🇦🇺

Nah. It was the Russians. You don't lose almost your entire army in a failed invasion to some chilly weather. The sheer quantity of archaeological evidence of frenchies that karked it as a result of enemy action in Russia, speaks for itself. Same for Napoleon's failures in North-Africa; almost all of his losses were to the British and their local allies.

^ Ironically far more likely to happen to average guys in The Ukraine; tis why they're fleeing the country like 1960's American teenagers trying to draft dodge from the Vietnam war 😂

^ Obvious Democrat is obvious. Ding Throwing away vast resources upon a pointless proxy war between Russia and a former bit of Russia; a conflict NATO started by constantly expansion provoking the chaps with thousands of nuclear weapons... there's a word for that: Insanity This conflict was at best a Iran-Iraq War level conflict, and yet you warhawks want to make it WWIII 🙄😮‍💨

^ Your first resort to projection and lame ad homeniem says more about you than anything else 😆 . I have archaeological fact on my side. What do you have? 😏

Cute diatribe, but nope 😂 Keep parroting hypocritical Democrat propaganda though; the rest of us could use a good laugh.

Side fact: the reason the TSR-2 has half-conical intakes while the TFX (F-111) doesn't (rather it has quarter-conical intakes), is because English Electric had done wind tunnel R&D work with their P.17A (one of TSR-2's precursor design submissions for GOR.339) and found quarter-conical intakes beneath the wing to have severe shortcomings; thus the intake placement was changed. General Dynamics did no such testing of the intake placement (or other aspects such as properly fatigue testing the wing components), and various accidents inevitably resulted. The UK may have never got a direct Canberra replacement (though various aircraft would do their best to fill the tactical nuclear bomber role from 1972 to 1998), but we didn't lose much when the F-111K order was cancelled.

Cute TDS rant; only a Democrat could have such an orwellian contradiction in logic 😂

Nah. Germany started WWII, just like they started WWI by giving a now non-existent country a blank check.

A PS video that's only 30% cringe' & propaganda and 70% actually interesting aviation history... it's been quite some time 😂 .

Yup. All the allied nations that were industrial powerhouses in WWII used Imperial or Standard (like China the USSR was reliant on imported British & US war material), and the US landed men on the moon with Standard. He can claim French measures are better when a country that uses them puts boots on Mars 😂

^ Cute myth frenchie, but nope 😆 . NASA at the time - and all their key manufacturers - used Standard. They've not achieved anything greater with humans since the mid' '70's, and nobody else has "measured up" either; especially not with that French gibberish 😆🤣 . When [and If] a frenchman steps foot on Mars; you'll have something worth measuring 😏

^ Keep peddling pish frenchie; doesn't change the fact that ""system International"" isn't as popular as it thinks it is, nor as good 😆😏 .

Disinformers of a feather, flock together.
