@pogmathon100 Agree 100% Nelson would be turning in his grave. Did he just surrender at Trafalgar to the combined Spanish and French fleets no he fought for his homeland. Iran is asking for trouble and it is just a matter of time they get nuclear capabilities so I don't know why we are sitting on our asses. I am only 20 but I would tell the Iranians to go fuck themselves if they wanted me to surrender to them.
I hope that fag smoking bitch that disgraced the nation was thrown out of RN as that was that MR Bean who complained his ipod had been confiscated. The RN has still to make amends for all this. We know you now have nice bunks...now show us how you hate those who have let us down!!
I hope everyone in the Royal Navy realises what a disgrace the surrender of RN personnel was to the Iranian navy . This was a national humiliation. I know it is easy for me to say, but you signed up( as my father did in 1939) to defend his country, and if needs be die for it. You should have been prepared to do just that. I am 57 and I would do just that if some foreign bastard threatened me. I would have killed those bastards. We moaned about our ipods. It is not forgotton.
@pogmathon100 You do not know much do you. The anti contaband patrol was supposed to be in international waters. They were armed and in Iranian waters which was not one of the belligerents. They were, therefore in breach of international law and were ordered to surrender by higher authority.
Batchelor was on his first deployment, recently out of training, set away from his chain of command and being threatened with shooting. He didn't do well on returning home granted,.....cont
The Royal Navy sculpted what Britain has become today, it paved the way for many of the European navies due to vast expansion and utter domination in naval strategy... and I think you're forgetting about the exploration by the British too. We had an empire that accounted for one quarter of the globe I dont think you're taking into consideration that our navy was cutting edge for it's day...
I dont think you DO have more tradition considering our utter reliance on the navy to remain... afloat.
Sorry to disappoint you british, but you were no Navy pioneers. Your navy traiditions exist since what the 17th century (with the pirates) you only gained a great navy by the mid 19th century... The European Pioneers of Naval Science were the Portuguese (without them there would never be ships navigating the ocean, developed most of the naval science still in use today) The spanish and the italians
@NetherDrakeye Not exactly.. our naval traditions go alot further back than the 17th century, we were pioneers in naval tactics and controlled vast areas of ocean for over a century, despite being constantly at war, sometimes with up to 3 countries at the same time.
The Portuguese were great explorers, but they could never challenge the might of the Royal Navy, not then and not now.
Man i know what im talking about. Our Navy was the Greatest in Europe til mid 7th century. Besides in Medieval Ages and Early Modern Ages the only Powers with true organised Navies were the Mediterranic States. Vast ocean? Did you know the ENTIRE Indic Ocean was a Portuguese Possession? Both our Navies were Glorious, ours had its Golden Era a lot before yours, therefore we DO have more tradition. We were the first to build ships that could Navigate in THE OCEAN!!!
And well you couldn't NEVER challenge our Navy by the 14th, 15th,16th and half of the 17th century.... Our Navy has an official statute and Organisation since the 12th century
Or Japan, Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Italy, Nigeria, Ethiopia etc.. I was been sarcastic lol. But thank you for your response, Are you dutch, or European? We can be friends! Or lovers if you so choose?
to be honest over the last 100 years britain has been mainly defensive in fact i can't actually think of somewhere we've attacked on our own (in the past 100 years) i may be mistaken though
you name a war in the past 100 years that Britain has started then n if i'm from Nibiru i must be intelligent so be at a mexican university of astronomy =D
Doesn't matter if UK started or not what matters is that UK took part in those conflicts. I never heard of Mexicans in the planet Nibiru ( I wans't talking about the Astronomy group at UNAM).There are only Anunnakians in Nibiru.Now don't try to say that UK was defending its Ideologies, then same goes for those countires entangled in wars with UK. And why the hell you talk about the last 100yrs? I bet UK did the most damange to other countries before that ha?
well over 100 years ago the idea of all nations was mainly mercantilist which means they believed the only way to imporve life for them i.e. get more precious metals was by other people suffering by taking thiers hence empire building and colonisation. since it was realised and accepted that all countries could advance together we haven't started any wars except in defense of others or to stop tyrants or terrorism. Final point when we believed in mercantilism all counties did aswell
Why the hell, at the very end you had to ruin your nice argument by saying ALL countries, there are so many countries perhaps becuase of their religious believes or due to lack of technology didnt invade and looted other countries.From what I know, even today there are countries that think that the way to improve life is to be mercantilistic, and its more systematic that 100yrs ago of course!
well that why powerful countries are less aggressive now as they don't need to knock two bells out of each other so they are now working together to try and stabilise other countries as groups like the UN and NATO. Britain is not a exessivyl agressive country, i think the only reason you made your original point was because of the Empire which was just the most successful of many in the 16th - 19th centuries
As I stated, the mercantilistic nature of the "powerful" countries has become systematic nowadays. We have bodies like UN,NATO,IMF which always lobby for better quality of life, peace and order to the world. But unfortuately this quality of life, peace and order are to the benefit to those powerful countires when poorer countries are sinking with unprecedented debt and other issues that are manipulated by the powerful nations. I still think this is the same ball game that happened 100yrs before
but hang on your original point was that britain attacks other countries and you have still failed to mention a time that modern britain while other countries have been peaceful has attacked another country with now clear valid grounds. so lets get back to the original debate that britain is not a major aggressor it just happend to have the most successful empire and i would like to add that many countries would be alot worse off if they had not been given the support of being in out Empire
I think a country (its people) would rather live independently with poverty than become occupied by another nation.You just can talk of modern Britain without talking about its past. A fat belly doest not have enough space to stuff, same goes for Britain.Why does the most successful nation be an aggressor when it is successful?
no its just that the british aremd force tend to have to go and hold america's hand once they decide to pick a fight with someone as they think everywhere will be another vietnam for them
well we haven't exactly got an empire anymore have we they are pointless nowdays as we can just maintain relations instead of control and don't forget the yanks are technically british or atleast thier forefathers were
As I said, the mercantilistic nature of the powerful nations has become more systematic.They have invented for their benefit bodies like NATO,UN,IMF. As you know they "stabilise other countires as a group" . For me this is the same old ball game that happend 100yrs before but with a nice concept. My original post was due to the fact that you missed the better juiciest years for UK that made her fat with looted wealth from other nations. This may be considered being successsful, I guess.
Well, I will say what I know. The Briths are a bunch of looters and crooks. I wish I had a large negro army so that I can insturct them to fuc all the Brit women and make chocolate babies he he he. That would be great for your fuc ed up pride,culture,heritage and race lol
You think Asian or African history is bloodless?? I'm sorry, Britain was the only country in the world to ever attack another. Its a shame how can somebody like this exist, lets hope they all die like they deserve....!
Well hmm.. You are forgiven and I admire your candid nature in accepting that Britian was the only country to attack another independent country.
I think your statement that all the Brits deserve to die because of the above is a bit too tough! Lets keep the Brit women and let the men die, because we can use the Brit women, there are lots of Asian men you know lol
Research the caste system in india, they'res a reason why most indians that have experianced british rule, wouldn't go as far as to say they are evil. I'm sure the pakistani's will be especially appreciative of their treatment by hindu's under this system. And what of all the different races in india and religions, conquest anyone?
Oh, the Tamil's have been successfully exterminated in shri lanka and india, thanks to popular indian support. This is without touching early middle ages and b4.
the problem isnt the navy its the british government who would rather spend the money on themselves its just greed pure and simple. The ministry of defence actually spent £30,000 on new chairs about £250,000 on art and so on. in the papers there was a wounded british marine who lost both legs and was given £15,000 compensation and there was an office worker for the government who hurt her thumb and was given around £485,000 compensation. fucking british government only think of themselves.
6 months i guess thats not too bad. i guess it figures with all the security checks etc. good luck to you mate. see you at HMS raleigh fingers crossed. what was the fitness tests like?
cheers fella, yes i think we will probs see eachother there:), fittness test to me wasnt that hard tbh with you mate jog atleast 1mile a day and you will pass with flycoulours(Y) im sure if your motivated enought you will do it .
thanks mate, i practically live at the gym so should be fine ;). so what happens now for you then after the wait? i asusme a letter telling you your personnal infomation checks out with the MOD and you start basic? would you start recieving a salary from there onwards?
basically, yes we should get a letter telling us about hms raliegh, like what to take and that :) and pesonal information checks, i think you start getting paid soon as you start basic so the first day your traning you will get paid :) as far as i know lol:)
that is good to know, its not over till graduation they i guess thats when you know if your in the navy or not. why'd you choose warfare specialist apart from handling tons of amazing firepower ;)
when you going to hms raleigh mate?, well basically i think i have the skills to be a warfare specalist ;) and leave the weedpeeps to the firepower:P joking :L
to me, (and i am australian so im not from UK or US), The royal navy is better, they invented the harrier and they have very modern warships and submarines, i think they are the most advanced in the world. As for the yanks, they have good technology and more vessels, they are both simular anyway
The Royal Navy has a long illustrious history and will continue to have such. The reason why the US Navy has succeed so well is because we have learned from the British.
Oh and for all those americans who say we cant fight, i seem to remember USS Missouri having a missile heading straight at her until the type 42 HMS Glouchester took it out with her Sea Dart system, so we saved some of your mens lives so leave us the fuck alone. Oh the Royal Navy has NEVER been beaten in its entire history, it has lost battles but never been beaten fully.
Who really cares who is the best? Yes the Yanks have a huge navy and ours is a shadow of what it once was and it will stay like that until we get a Goverment that gives a shit.
Everyone knows the type 23 is the leader in its field, and we dont know about the type 45 until the first ones go into service, but its estimated they will outclass any ship in the same role.
but i tend to agree that the american navy is a huge force of over paid toy boys who have never fought a war............Who was captured by the Iran National guard with Royal Marines on board.And then whined on national Tv.......Most USN Sailors are vets from the first and second gulf wars and other conflicts.The USN is the most capable Navy in the World.Can Britian strike any country in 24 hours notice our Navy is on every ocean.
ur question : can Britain strike any country in 24 hrs notice?..
well mate, The Royal Navy had done that centuaries and centuries...touching every continent in the present world, and remember without beggin other countries to join us like the US Gov did.
Go read the history again...that's why we are call the Royal Navy!
It would actually take probably 96 hours for the UK to be in a position to strike a lot of places, correct. However, the USN certainly is not capable of hitting anywhere within 24 hours, regardless of what you have been told.
In nuclear terms, yes, the UK can strike any country within 24 hours. As can several countries. Nothing special about the USN other than it's size, I'm afraid. It's tech certainly isn't the best and the training is only standard.
in 1982 the Royal navys forward attack fleet made up of over 30 major war ships set sail in under 24 hours. although it did take a while to reach the falklands. the UK can respond just as fast as the USA can, but in smaller numbers
The Nimitz Class were designed in 1968, there the most dated carriers still in service, and i think you'll find the Type 23 Frigate and the Type 45 Destroyer are the most advanced anti-sub & anti-air ships in the world..
The Gerald Ford Class will be out before the Queen Class.I would say the the type 23 and type 45 are good.however they are not better than the Aegis combat system which is used on some of our cruisers and destroyers.
i think people who are supposed to be allies should have some more respect for each other on both sides, but i tend to agree that the american navy is a huge force of over paid toy boys who have never fought a war.. ship for ship the royal navy outclasses any other the type 23, the type 45 and the new queen elizabeth class carriers are leaders in naval innovation.
Even when your queen elizabeth class comes out the nimitz class will still outclass it .Also by that time our new class will set sail the Gerald Ford Class which will cary over 90 airplanes.Our Crusiers and Destroyers are the most advanced in the World most of them carry the Aegis combat system which is the best in the World.
but americans are just the rejects of europe we kicked all the scum out of our countries into america, makes me so happy to know i wasnt born into a filthy american family
yawns at this yankee doodle cunt, the us navy would get blowen apart by the royal navy, usa are warlords and nothing else only went into iraq for the oil
In peace times the RN is the best Navy in the World.But when War breaks out you wanks call on the USN to help.All of a sudden we are the best but we were shit before.Then after the War the RN is best again.Even if Britian had one Ship you wanks would still think your the best.You wanks are so much like the French legends of your own minds lmfao.
yawns at this yankee doodle cunt, the us navy would get blowen apart by the royal navy......Kind of funny you would say that since the UK followed lmfao.Your like our pet dog.Now go fetch a bone you manchester united cunt.
Anyway, we're the most powerful Navy in the world, even during wars, we call for USA's help because we're 1/3 the size of ONE of the country's we're fighting.
The RN is best left at port as a pure Fighting Defense force.Same goes for the RAF.Let the big Super-Powers win it for you.Stay at home protect your peeps.
Thing that sucks about the navy is the crammped living conditions. That tiny little sleeping area is so inadequate and is also ur living space. This is why you can't make a proper life out of it. ITs like being a battery hen in a cage
yes but it was the largest for hundreds of years and only reason US is largest is britain cudnt be arsed with arms race after 6 years of war with germany.
Sajuuk, your talking crap mate, I served on Invinc class carriers a lot in the 90's and they were always breaking down, its nothing to do with money it happens, through proper use
how come injuries in the army are reported more than injuries in the royal navy which rarely ever get reported. I'm guessing its to keep recruitment levels up. After all the navy is the governments most vital defence. I would like to hear what kind of injuries have occured lately in the royal navy. I think it is wrong to hide the true facts from the public or potential recruits
you can't make a cup of hot milk in the navy in the middle of the night if you wake up with a spoonful of sugar. Its little things like this that make it not worth joining. ITs the small things in life that count and the navy cannot offer these things. no growing plants or nature either.
"If it had not been for you British i should of been Emperor of the East, but wherever there is water to float a ship, we are always to find you in our way"
Napoleon Bonaparte to Captain Maitland, RN, July 1815.
Wait a minute we still are still one of the most powerful nations in the world with a large navy of 100 ships. Your small navy of 8 ofshore patrol vessels is no match so you can't speak
Not always true sailingforde04...Its not the size that counts. Look at the size of the United States Navy and ours. They have more ships in just one class then we have in our entire fleet! Yet we can still match them on the open waves, and that is one reason why they have massive respect for our Sailors. In my experience with working alongside the US Navy, they have been amazed at how capable we are considering our size as a fleet. Our Royal Navy has a great history and will continue to do so!!
The US navy is bigger but perhaps you should do some more reasearch. Recently they have had to wtihdraw quite a number of guided misile frigates and destroyers from sevice because they were in a too poor condition to put to sea. Our fleet meanwhile is in brilliant condition. I appreciate we are smaller than we should be but I believe it is better to have a smaller , and better conditioned fleet rather than a fleet where vessels are pulled our of service because they are completely worn out
I take it you aren't aware that our Royal Navy only has 1/3rd of it's blue sea capable warships functional at any one time? If we had procured the full 12 type 45s (now 6 + 2 if requested) and both new supercarriers go to completion then I'd come back and agree with you.
I know that I mean over the past 20 years the Royal navy has recieved some massive cuts in the past years I completely agree with you the cut of the effectively 6 type 45 destroyers was stupidity and I feel that the type 42s should be comprehensively rebuilt and refitted effectively they are all the RN need. And the invincible class aircraft carriers should also be refitted bringing our carrier force to a total of 5 We need to return to the 1920s and 30s attitude of refitting not decomisioning
hey 1916 supermc get a grip an fuckoff the brits are the hardest fighters in the world theres only a few of us but we neva back down bet ur a stupid yank , god save the queen an all who servre her an OUR mighty island
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Never backed down? We got our arses kicked in the Basra area after the invasion and left with our tails between our legs, and it looks like we're heading in the same direction in Afghanistan. I don't doubt the courage of our soldiers out there, but they are as human as anyone else and are as capable of getting an arseing as anyone else.
Our navy is still second biggest in the world tho. . . only behind the USA nd look at the size of there country lol! shame the government wont spend more tho :( Wud be better wid 3 of them carrier or more more of everything lol
aye but only 2 of em,,,plus they will be replacing the invincible so we techincally go from 3 carriers (2 serving 1 in reserve) to 2 :S but much much bigger ,,, how does that work out? :S more or less? :S lol
yeah but as the aircraft carriers themselves go they arent very big, They dont hold enough aircraft compared to some carriers to make them seriously threatening, still powerful and not to be pissed about with but lets face it they need replacing with the larger ones, specially consdering one of em broke down not long ago! one of the most important parts of our navy and it broke down that to me is a serious signal the class is reaching its sell by date :(
aye but you can only realisticly maintain equipment for so long, after a while it needs replacing and that usually means a refit, it's technially more value for money to replace the whole design, wonder if they'll keep the invincible class in reserve :S
yeah but we are building two more queen elizabeth class carriers at 920 feet long and daring class destroyers also the Navy intend to refit Ark royal and Illustrous taking our carrier fleet to four units
nice vid, shame this hopeless governme has run our armed forced down, the navy seems to be the poor relation these days hopefully the new carriers and some type 45's with some goodies thrown in will put us back right up there again!

You are inebriate, uncivilised barbarian dogs and that's why the Europeans have had to keep you in order like the filthy un evolved scum that you are.

You think Asian or African history is bloodless?? I'm sorry, Britain was the only country in the world to ever attack another. Its a shame how can somebody like this exist, lets hope they all die like they deserve....!
Seriously, are you ill??

Well hmm.. You are forgiven and I admire your candid nature in accepting that Britian was the only country to attack another independent country.
I think your statement that all the Brits deserve to die because of the above is a bit too tough! Lets keep the Brit women and let the men die, because we can use the Brit women, there are lots of Asian men you know lol

Research the caste system in india, they'res a reason why most indians that have experianced british rule, wouldn't go as far as to say they are evil. I'm sure the pakistani's will be especially appreciative of their treatment by hindu's under this system. And what of all the different races in india and religions, conquest anyone?
Oh, the Tamil's have been successfully exterminated in shri lanka and india, thanks to popular indian support. This is without touching early middle ages and b4.

the problem isnt the navy its the british government who would rather spend the money on themselves its just greed pure and simple. The ministry of defence actually spent £30,000 on new chairs about £250,000 on art and so on. in the papers there was a wounded british marine who lost both legs and was given £15,000 compensation and there was an office worker for the government who hurt her thumb and was given around £485,000 compensation. fucking british government only think of themselves.

when you going to hms raleigh mate?, well basically i think i have the skills to be a warfare specalist ;) and leave the weedpeeps to the firepower:P joking :L

to me, (and i am australian so im not from UK or US), The royal navy is better, they invented the harrier and they have very modern warships and submarines, i think they are the most advanced in the world. As for the yanks, they have good technology and more vessels, they are both simular anyway

Yeah, we have some of the most modern warships at the moment. Like HMS Daring and there's more being built and one is in trials.

Everyone knows the type 23 is the leader in its field, and we dont know about the type 45 until the first ones go into service, but its estimated they will outclass any ship in the same role.

but i tend to agree that the american navy is a huge force of over paid toy boys who have never fought a war............Who was captured by the Iran National guard with Royal Marines on board.And then whined on national Tv.......Most USN Sailors are vets from the first and second gulf wars and other conflicts.The USN is the most capable Navy in the World.Can Britian strike any country in 24 hours notice our Navy is on every ocean.

ur question : can Britain strike any country in 24 hrs notice?..
well mate, The Royal Navy had done that centuaries and centuries...touching every continent in the present world, and remember without beggin other countries to join us like the US Gov did.
Go read the history again...that's why we are call the Royal Navy!
RUcreates 3 years ago
It would actually take probably 96 hours for the UK to be in a position to strike a lot of places, correct. However, the USN certainly is not capable of hitting anywhere within 24 hours, regardless of what you have been told.
In nuclear terms, yes, the UK can strike any country within 24 hours. As can several countries. Nothing special about the USN other than it's size, I'm afraid. It's tech certainly isn't the best and the training is only standard.

in 1982 the Royal navys forward attack fleet made up of over 30 major war ships set sail in under 24 hours. although it did take a while to reach the falklands. the UK can respond just as fast as the USA can, but in smaller numbers

The Nimitz Class were designed in 1968, there the most dated carriers still in service, and i think you'll find the Type 23 Frigate and the Type 45 Destroyer are the most advanced anti-sub & anti-air ships in the world..

The Gerald Ford Class will be out before the Queen Class.I would say the the type 23 and type 45 are good.however they are not better than the Aegis combat system which is used on some of our cruisers and destroyers.

TowerHamletsNeil 3 years ago
Even when your queen elizabeth class comes out the nimitz class will still outclass it .Also by that time our new class will set sail the Gerald Ford Class which will cary over 90 airplanes.Our Crusiers and Destroyers are the most advanced in the World most of them carry the Aegis combat system which is the best in the World.

how come injuries in the army are reported more than injuries in the royal navy which rarely ever get reported. I'm guessing its to keep recruitment levels up. After all the navy is the governments most vital defence. I would like to hear what kind of injuries have occured lately in the royal navy. I think it is wrong to hide the true facts from the public or potential recruits
fayik123 3 years ago
you can't make a cup of hot milk in the navy in the middle of the night if you wake up with a spoonful of sugar. Its little things like this that make it not worth joining. ITs the small things in life that count and the navy cannot offer these things. no growing plants or nature either.

Not always true sailingforde04...Its not the size that counts. Look at the size of the United States Navy and ours. They have more ships in just one class then we have in our entire fleet! Yet we can still match them on the open waves, and that is one reason why they have massive respect for our Sailors. In my experience with working alongside the US Navy, they have been amazed at how capable we are considering our size as a fleet. Our Royal Navy has a great history and will continue to do so!!
jayinuk1976 3 years ago 2
The US navy is bigger but perhaps you should do some more reasearch. Recently they have had to wtihdraw quite a number of guided misile frigates and destroyers from sevice because they were in a too poor condition to put to sea. Our fleet meanwhile is in brilliant condition. I appreciate we are smaller than we should be but I believe it is better to have a smaller , and better conditioned fleet rather than a fleet where vessels are pulled our of service because they are completely worn out
sailingforde04 3 years ago
I take it you aren't aware that our Royal Navy only has 1/3rd of it's blue sea capable warships functional at any one time? If we had procured the full 12 type 45s (now 6 + 2 if requested) and both new supercarriers go to completion then I'd come back and agree with you.
munchingfoo 3 years ago
I know that I mean over the past 20 years the Royal navy has recieved some massive cuts in the past years I completely agree with you the cut of the effectively 6 type 45 destroyers was stupidity and I feel that the type 42s should be comprehensively rebuilt and refitted effectively they are all the RN need. And the invincible class aircraft carriers should also be refitted bringing our carrier force to a total of 5 We need to return to the 1920s and 30s attitude of refitting not decomisioning

Never backed down? We got our arses kicked in the Basra area after the invasion and left with our tails between our legs, and it looks like we're heading in the same direction in Afghanistan. I don't doubt the courage of our soldiers out there, but they are as human as anyone else and are as capable of getting an arseing as anyone else.

sailingforde04 3 years ago
yeah but as the aircraft carriers themselves go they arent very big, They dont hold enough aircraft compared to some carriers to make them seriously threatening, still powerful and not to be pissed about with but lets face it they need replacing with the larger ones, specially consdering one of em broke down not long ago! one of the most important parts of our navy and it broke down that to me is a serious signal the class is reaching its sell by date :(
sajuuk212 3 years ago
It also signals poor maintainence of equipment.
fayik123 3 years ago
aye but you can only realisticly maintain equipment for so long, after a while it needs replacing and that usually means a refit, it's technially more value for money to replace the whole design, wonder if they'll keep the invincible class in reserve :S
