I know i'm gona get people saying I'm wrong but technally ONLY England and Scotland make up the Uk because they are two united kingdoms hence The United Kingdom. (Wales is not a kingdom)
@bakedpork the Brits have a aircraft that would beat an F22 in a dog fight the Typhoon, true America has a powerful air force make no mistake my brothers, but accuracy and agility beats power all day. God save the Queen, and god bless America.
Hence 'United Kingdom' rather than 'Great Britain'
The UK encompasses all countries, islands etc under the Queen's 'control'. If you look at an atlas/map, the Falkland Islands has 'UK' written after it in brackets (as does Ascension Island and Gibralter).
England, Wales and Scotland (and maybe Northern Ireland) make up 'Great Britain', which the Falkland Islands certainly aren't part of
it's the other way around England wales and scotland makes up great britain, but england wales, scotland & nth ireland makes up the uk in total. Secondly not all countries and islands are under the queens control, remember she has no power over the majority of them. not even the commonwealth.
it costs the U.K government around £3MILLION to train 1 apache helicopter pilot (with no helicopter), and its around £250,000 for one hell-fire missile and the apache can carry 12 of these, think how much the wars we fight in cost its amazing.Apache's can pop up from a tree line 3 miles away from its targets and its on board infra red camera can recognise 256 targets, find the 16 most dangerous targets and destroy them all in just 28 seconds.... i find that amzing
ashc241185 - You will have to brush up on your aircraft recognition fellah.............its a jaguar that is landing on th motorway!!! they did it quite often I think (Ex Tornado Groundcrew.. Never worked on Jags)
lol, ok take your word for it. wasn't sure because the footage was a bit blurry. The jags have gone out of service now though I believe, so definately won't be flying one of them.
Anyone have any idea why that Tornado landed on that motorway, got turned round and took off again? It doesn't look like recent foootage. I'm hoping to join the RAF soon, doing my application at the momment and want to fly fast jets if I get picked. It will be interesting if landing on the M1 is one of the tests! lol.
@Otacrack WRONG,,.. remember the Falkland wars ?? UK only won it because the Harrier Jumpjet... otherwise Argentina would won it 100% even if they got SAS
@socomsix19 that complete shit, the UK were superior in air, sea and land... capturing what was it 11,000 of the Argentine troops... why? because the Argentines sent a bunch of under trained kids with no motivation or determination in the face of danger... they were a reasonable force in south america, but faced with an able force such as Britain's they were nothing... so don't come out with sweeping statements that have no backing because what u said is bollix
@socomsix19 a single SAS soldier could dispatch an entire argentine army with a single bullet. oh and the argentines ALSO had jets and ground vehicles and they still crumbled and fell to the feet of the British. and if they tried to invade again they would just simply lose catastrophically. our army and air force grows ever stronger, more advanced, more capable of ending the invasion in the click of a finger.
I was 9 years in the RAF and loved it. If you really want to join get down to your nearest RAF recruit office and talk to them about job options. Qualifcations needed depend on what job you want to do and you can still study for higher qualifications once you are in. Message me if you need to know more etc
Recent article on New York Times states that due to bad economy RAF is flying kites!
