Wish I had shares in mbda.

Dropped a little in value today, but if we end up supplying more stuff to Ukraine, then who knows.

I wish I had loads of MDMA, it used to be a proper fanny magnet back then - the sluts would pay in kind for a pill or wrap - my garb made me look like a petty gangster so girls would often come and unashamedly ask for free drugs, not off me, someone else.

If Ukraine ever became our enemy, its those weapons we would be facing.

Isn’t that what happened when Taliban were fighting Russia? The west provided armaments which later would get used against the west.

It is, and the amount of western supplied weaponry that has fallen into the hands of terrorist groups in Afghan over the last few years is scary.

We've pumped all sorts of weapons and training into whoever we consider our allies in Iraq, Syria, Libya etc in recent years too and I suppose its considered critical for what we want at the time, but it surely couldn't be considered a shock if we find it all fielded against us at some point in future.

The global war machine continues to tick over!

Always makes me wonder why the stuff we provide doesn’t have a remotely operated self-destruct system.

I'm sure I read something along those lines about some piece of equipment America sold once but can't remember what it was. Can only really talk from aircraft point of view as that's where my interest lies, but if we or the US sells a batch of planes to somewhere abroad they're usually export versions stripped of their most sensitive technology.

Just makes me laugh sometimes, we spent majority of the 90s spending hundreds of millions destroying Iraqs air force and now they own a whole batch of lovely F-16s flown by pilots trained by those who were trying to kill them not too many years earlier!

Antagonising our new overlords 

I warned you 

tbh, it looks like *only* lorry horn noises might work to take over the west  . 

Interesting article. Not the piece of piss for the Russians you might think.

Good read that. Seems like they’re a bit more prepped 

hmmm, they took crimea by vote. 

That is a cracking read, 

No doubt why Russia and the twat next door have been flashing their missile capabilities. 

If it came down to a ground based, troop battle then Russia is getting a fierce fight.

Probably a bit like Normandy in WW2

Sheer weight of materiel against an embedded force, the Reich were very good at rear guard actions especially with their Hitler Youth

Rearguard actions and resistance should be their tactic

Context would help....

There’s a vid of a Ukrainian granny wielding a machine gun, being trained by a guy with SS related insignia on his uniform.

More than likely Russian propaganda. They are experts.

Yes.

The article explains the sheer size of the Ukrainian military. Maybe not the most advanced in some regards, but for comparison, it is significantly bigger than ours, and from a smaller population.

As I said, they are experts. They've got you and Peter Hitchens talking about a granny, and thinking the BBC are Nazi's.

I do not agree with your assumption about me.

 

I think it could be a case of that the situation is that serious that it’s all hands to the pump.
