Wed ****ing dominate the UK, keep it to USMC vs the whole British military

well at least britian made one of the best sniper rifles ever made the barrett 50 caliber

The TA are the Territorial Army. It's made up of civilians who train in their spare time and are still seen as soldiers. They train once per week I think and each month they go for a long weekend of training. During Holidays they get long sessions of training. They DO go on tour to Afghanistan to serve alongside the regular soldiers.

I know, was just stating it as you said you had air and naval.



Oh, you have more men, that means you can beat everyone. Russia has more men than you, China does too, but it doesn't mean to say they will win. Germany had more men, but look who got their asses kicked before the glory boys (Americans) showed up. If you knew anything about the SAS, you would know that they might only have a few hundred men, but their tactics make it seem like thousands of men. 10 men alone held off thousands of men, as well as tanks in a secret war. Since they were formed in WW2, they have been behind enemy lines blowing shit up without anyone knowing till it's too late. So while your guys are shooting at who you think would be a whole platoon, in reality it could be 5 men. They don't need air support all the time. They are trained to survive, not rely on some bomb from the air like your guys would do. They stand and fight until they win or die. If they loose a man, then get on and push forward.




You have about 150 F22. If you're going by size, they would get owned by our 200+? Tornados and then however many Harrier GR7 and GR9's we have. That's just offensive jets. Then we have a shit load of defensive jets and heli's. Thing is, you might have the best jet, but you don't have the best pilots. Be careful you don't get friendly fired upon!




Not really though. You're just going by numbers, not power or strength. How do you expect to beat a sophisticated army like Britain when you can't beat a bunch of jungle men? How is it that America hasn't owned half the world? I could go on and on about this, but it doesn't matter. America believes they won WW1 and WW2. America believes they have the best army. You can't change an American mind. I admire you all for your patriotism, shame Britain isn't like that. I know one thing though. America didn't win WW1 or WW2 seeing as though they arrived late when Germany was falling to pieces, you just sped up the process.

well if the us army was that good how come they lost in vietnam

Britain, just because of the budget. But I doubt it'd happen, England and America have been allies (offline) since like America was created.

So they are reserve forces. That was included in the numbers



The Marine Corps has its own air power separate from other branches. It has F35s, AH-1ws, Hueys, V-22, Super Stallions and C-130s

The USMC is a department if the Navy and would get transported by ship



Germany would have won the war if they had Russia on their side. Russia was the turning point in the war, not the Americans. Russia suffered the most casualties of everybody and forced the Germans to fight two fronts.


Jesus christ you are brainwashed.



The tactics of small teams is stealth. Stealth is #1. You can think that 20 guys can beat a whole army, but the SAS aren't gods.





I didnt mention the other aircraft we have. The F-22 is so advanced that your radar wont detect it and the F-22's missile range is much farther than your Tornados. I guarantee you 150 F-22s alone can destroy the whole RAF, not to mention the other thousands of F-15s, F-16s, F-18 and F-35s we have.


Again with Vietnam. If we could use a nuke, we could have destroyed them all. It wasnt about going in and killing everybody or we would have one hands down. They blended in with civilians by day, and booby trapped soldiers by night.


We didnt, it was our Allies combined that one both wars.


Thank god Russia joined our side, or we would have been ****ed.



Purely theoretical. I cant imagine killing a UK soldier.


I am talking about the USMC. Not the Army. We took over for France, who pussied out. We technically won the war, and we pulled out because of American civilians against the war and North Vietnam capitalized and took over South Vietnam after we pulled out.

british military obviously

lol you expect me to berlive that answer, we know what really happend the vietnamise over ran you yanks and you had no choice but retriet

you can't escape what happend also how come you think the sas are shiti think the yanks are just jellous, I havnt heard of the sas failing

USMC = Spray and Pray

UK Forces = Calculated attacks that result in victory EVERY TIME.
