I hope so, but Putin has no interest in peace.

Aye Wykiki I dont come on Gen Chat much. but hope the cunts at yer new place of work are ok and the new job works out well!.

I’m not sure Trump has the stones to actually throw Ukraine to the dogs anymore- his recent rhetoric against Putin suggests so too* *( As much as you can believe a single thing that falls out of TACO’s face anus). And, if he did, I honestly think Europe would step up and commit to Ukraine more forcefully.

I’ve seen a subtitled version of the first video, the owld Russian lad is swearing like a trooper! “ Oh fuck me, another one!” ” The fucking police are fucking shooting at it… fuck me, they’ve fucking missed!”

Agree with a lot of that, but not the last paragraph, the peace talks are a game/front IMO, he'll make some unreasonable demands and when rejected just say "Ukraine doesn't want peace" and on it'll go, sadly the orange shitgibbon will likely buy the story.

Best of luck Wykiki

Still looks more mobile than Callum currently does.

I was reading the other day about Russia’s declared nuclear capabilities, and how they’re very likely bullshit. Essentially, they probably do have some small, functioning nuclear missiles (ICBM’s?) which they can launch off the back of a truck. Their long-range, silo based arsenal, which carries the proper big boys, hydrogen fusion warheads, are very likely practically useless, due to poor( or non existent) maintenance, and a lack of a source of Tritium, which is needed to trigger the first stage of these weapons. Without the first stage triggering, the devastating second fusion stage won’t happen. Given how piss poor the Russian military has been seen to be during this war ( let’s not forget they needed a private army to advance in the earlier part of it, until the bloke had an unfortunate plane crash), it’s fairly credible to me that their nuclear capabilities are way less daunting than they claim. Granted, you only need one nuclear missile to land to ruin someone’s day, but I think the strengthening of European military capabilities is more subtly aimed at Trump than Putin- basically saying “If you won’t help, we’re more than capable of seeing off Vlad ourselves. I also think Putin sees this, which is why he’s now willing to enter peace negotiations- he’s put himself in a position where he knows he can’t sustain the war, or even a victory should it come to that, and is now looking to save face and present himself to his people as Vlad the Peacemaker before the woeful state of his military is truly exposed to them.

As long as he’s happy to play second fiddle to Isak then he gives us another option off the bench.

They were still there waiting decommissioning when I worked there in 2013 😆 Vanguard class are due for the chop soon, some Dreadnought class already in service I think..

Long story, short version, had a visit on HMS Amazon in Devonport (1976) courtesy of the RN, on way out we passed a dry dock with one of the hunter killer nukes in it, fuck me, to see one out of the water, they are fucking huge and probably the missile boats are even bigger these days !!!!

Not anymore he won’t. Zelensky gave Putin a proper spanking with their outstanding coordinated drone strike on Russia’s bomber fleet. Reading that many of the planes he destroyed can’t be replaced as they’re no longer in production, even parts for repair are rarer than a washed mackem. This is Zelensky today, shaking hands with Russia’s Head of Security Service and giving him a “fuck you” grin

Good job we’ve got four then (no idea of their status tbh, they could all be in getting fixed at Devonport 😬)

Couldn't agree more

Well yes, 3 isn't enough, one at sea on patrol, one in port, one under maintenance, doesn't give you a lot of slack.

Why not forget the whole thing then?

Those orange and green stripes are best forgotten tbh

Do that many nuclear subs really give us a significant strategic advantage over the 3 we already had? It can't all be aimed at Russia, they must be anticipating more of a global presence..

I know

No. He'll just lob a few missiles.

That's a relief.

Yep - but as with any hardware provider, they'll do everything they can to drive you to their own solutions.

Is that a rhetorical question?

Russia barely managed to invade a country with a 10th of our military which is right next door they won't invade us.
