Then why did you post such a nonsense comment? You only made yourself look horribly ignorant.

????????????????????

DoD, do you even frigate?

USS SNAFU.

Without getting too deep into the discussion about that, I’m just going to point out one truly awesome, and yet horrifying thing you forgot:

Haha, you silly fuck! I’d rather drink my own piss than read Daily Mail. And I’ll joke about anything as long as it stays within reasonable limits.

I’m asking because I’ve seen plenty of videos but none of them had a legitimate sound. I like to think that it sounds like a baby of Tu-95 and Concorde.

Superleggera?

Speaking of loud ass planes, do you know if there is a verifiable audio or video recording of the XF-84H Thunderscreech, the loudest plane of all times?

And let’s not forget the US command’s flat out refusal to accept any British idea, from midget subs as markers to the Hobart’s funnies. They were thinking they could apply lessons learned from the Pacific, disregarding the fact that Normandy was an quite a different operation (for example, no massive, multi-day…

While it’s absolutely uncomparable to the 4th generation fighters from aesthetic point of view, it kind of grew on me, except when I see that big ass (literally) engine. I’ve always thought it would look (and perform) better if it were a twin engine design. And I don’t like it’s single-screen cockpit; somehow, it…

I think this is one of few places where I can criticize things otherwise reviled by many people and actually find some understanding, instead of being called a god-hating communist or something.

You asked me and I answered with a widely known fact. Then you tried to spin in with the good old “whataboutism”. Seriously, what is the matter with you people? Instead of providing facts, you always drag out that tired “what about”. We are discussing one topic, so stay on it and provide reasonable counter-arguments…

Challenger 2 is still carries HESH rounds, but I don’t know why aren’t current AVRE’s using them. It was last carried by the Centurion AVRE, which left service in the 90s.

OK.....while I’m tired of arguing about the F-35, I do have to say that you are horribly overestimating the capabilities of the IRST. I am usually arguing for the IRST as a great counter-stealth weapon, but to say that it makes stealth obsolete is ridiculous. IRST’s performance heavily depends on the atmospheric…

Ok, next time I go mountain biking in Fort William, I’ll make sure that everyone wears a high-visibility vest.

What makes you think I won’t piss on that one as well? PT belt is a ridiculous piece of crap, but this being a post about the UK’s military, I’ve decided to make a joke about them only.

While it may make some sense, it is also a great symbol of the UK’s ridiculous obsession with health and safety, and its insane political correctness.
