The UK couldn't fight the Republic of Congo for two months without America helping them these days.

May as well send all of their equipment to Ukraine!
|
|
|
Maybe Europe should just go ahead and surrender now and get it over with.

Isnt that just about every Euro Trash country? With the rate of Artillery expenditure, how long could any of them actually sustain actual full scale conflict without Uncle Sam.
France recently Tripled their 155 Production to 3K shells a month. Ukraine is down to firing 2K a day from 6K over last summer with Russia kicking off 10-20K shells a day. We are currently producing 28K a month and hope to up that to close to 80K some time in the future. And think of the huge potential America has to ramp up War Production if it kicked the regulations and BS to the side. I dont think Europe has that sort of industrial base it could ramp up if war kicked off across the continent. But hey, they got free health care and safe speech laws.. |

If only the UK was following this doctrine:

Sounds like a Europe problem.

It was always going to go to nukes quick.

There is an interview where Hookstead (sp) interviews a former SAS guy who sums it up perfectly… The UK travels to war in America’s pocket (paraphrase.)
I doubt the UK has enough personnel, equipment, or ammo to make it 2mo. But, that is better than Germany which is quoted as saying two days. |
|
|
I'm sure they'll just keep voicing big concerns about MIC production capacity. And continue standing around with their thumbs up their ass instead of fixing the problem.
Ya know.... like they've done since Feb 22 |

Considering most of them fail to meet their required expenditure to meet NATO yearly requirements for decades now this is no surprise.
None of them after ww2 ended has ever spent enough on defense, if they all spent a solid 3% from 1950 to now they would be in better shape. |

With the UK being overrun with mooslimbs and immigrants from mooslimb countries, it’s probably better their population doesn’t have easy access to firearms. |

Don't they only have something like 200 tanks?
|

Well, better hope they don’t get any more froggy eh?

Voting to fix our societies problems, is just as effective as donating to the NRA to expand gun rights.
|
Well then, I guess UK/Europe better get busy spending some money for military assets and personnel.

When the world starts printing money to buy real military supplies, inflation will be double digits for years.

The UK doesn't need 2 months they'd have the Russians beat in two weeks .

Thread title indicates Europe but OP says UK.
Either way, all those nations are pussies who ride our coattails. |

If an intense war occurs, in order to negotiate peace, I wouldn't be surprised to see a new 10-nation alliance formed between select EU countries including both Great Britain and Russia.

View Quote Since Britain can’t fit with ARF thread title space limitations I’ll just change title to UK and skip reference to NATO or Europe but my original point is if Britain is in that bad of shape and everyone already knows how bad of shape Germany is then what is the state of the rest minus Poland?

Ditto with La Grand Armee (French). With exception of Niger, it's sufficient for putting down former colonies. No way it can take on Russia. How do they supply their army from across the Continent? Easy-peasy for the Rooskies but not so for the Lion and the Rooster.
Even if contingents of British and French went to U-Crane, they would be deployed along the BeloRussian border to free other U-Crane forces for their Drang Nach Osten. Putin won't tolerate open deployment and will probaby bomb the sh*t out of them. Then what would NATO do? |

The UK only needs enough weapons to escalate a conflict until the US gets involved

Could we get the Uke Bros in here to call him a Putin Stooge?
I'm not sure Britain could take on the foreigners in London for longer than 2 weeks. Russia has proven to be a paper tiger. A lot of NATO countries are tissue tigers. |

Maybe if the funded their military properly and introduced conscription they might stand a chance.

What a bunch of shit. Russia has zero interest in trying to invade an island in the North Atlantic that is second largest signatory to the NATO treaty. They sure are trying to drum up drama aren't they.

Amazing how the once legitimate superpower of the world couldn’t currently fight its way out of a wet paper bag. I guess it’s good they are an island.
