It's not true. The US Army is positively dripping with Abrams tanks with countless stored and many produced simply to go direct-to-storage. A few years back the US Army was nudging towards 4 tanks...

The second impact from a MANPAD (long range shot, missile PBO) whilst the pilot is still decelerating under drogue and with his stricken aircraft flashing past him, has to be the most remarkable...

Just to bring this sub-forum back to its roots and noting that many of us have dropped stuff from altitude, we can categorically assert that stores can go supersonic with ease when dropped from the...

The only clear(ish) pics I have seen are of the aircraft dispersal and flight line. Missile hits, GPS guided, multiple LoA, reasonable mensuration, slight AMPI shift (minor plan error, almost no...

Probably but there is an alternative narrative where the UNSC charter references the USSR and lists the countries therein. Russia took the seat when the USSR collapsed but in doing so it denied the...

I think a quick check of the accepted history would show that after Russia / Soviets signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact on 23 August 1938, a matter of days later Russia and Germany signed an amended...

Pretty sure that Russia is no stranger to retreats, re-writing of history, or even changing sides mid-war.

In WW2 it went from being one of the Axis powers that started the most blood-thirsty...

No way! If you don't believe me now why would you believe me with more detail? I've done all those things I detailed in France and quite a bit more; I just simply do not care if you want proof to...

I guess you have zero contact with the military as we (the UK in this case) exercise / work-up / trial / test / evaluate / develop / maintain / train with France as a matter of routine. Now, brace...

Still no and best to keep the NATO bit out of it, unless Putin attacks part of the defensive alliance.

Nation states, as a coalition, should come together and take direct action at the request of...

Indeed.

A direct NATO intervention is not needed at this point. However, a 'coalition of the willing' invited into a friendly sovereign state should never be seen as provocative, especially when...

Some of that is pretty old and must have had an agenda behind it to put it together like that.

The MoD needs to be careful here as one man's 'augmented effects' is another man's 'thermobaric'. The distinction has to be the way these weapons are being used, especially for those in glass houses.

Not sure about the wisdom of handing-out Starstreak. It requires more training than Stinger RMP and (unlike modern Stinger) wasn't built with counter-proliferation in mind. Heck of a big stick to...
