People seem to be looking straight past the origins of all wars in most of the world. Americans and Brits CANNOT expect BLACK PEOPLE to forget ALL BARBARIC ACTS THAT PUT THEM IN THIS POSITION IN THE 1ST PLACE. NOBODY SEEMS TO WANT TO GO ANY FURTHER BACK THAN THE END OF THE SLAVE TRADE, THEN HAVE THE AUDACITY TO SAY THINGS LIKE "WE CAME TO FEED THEM," SORRY BUT PEOPLE NEED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT

If you read Tim winer's book legacy of Ashley's and it's a comprehensive story of the CIA from its concepting until currently and it's not just written about by a guy. You know with some dubious connections, the people that are being quoted in it are all the players that are still alive and the power brokers that participated in the CIA those years. So I think it's fairly accurate and it appears from that that the CIA has never really had a successful operation to speak of. They've always screwed everything they've done up and gotten a lot of people killed from dropping hundreds of agents behind lines in China and other places who are immediately all picked up and killed to having places bombed in Vietnam in countries we weren't even supposed to be in. It's just an endless chain of screw-ups. It was led by England for a while. A raging, alcoholic and various other people that were incompetent and for them to have a black budget of unlimited funds and no accountability is absolutely insane to this day. They still think they're the state department and decide American policy and seem to be doing it and they do it all wrong as they're doing in Israel right now

As a army veteran myself our military is not what it used to be. The army has got so fkn soft it disgusted me to the point of having to ets after 8 years and i wanted to be a lifer! We loose our minds over a few loses! Yes, we have some badass weapons, some huge bombs, nukes, and a couple thousand elite soldiers, but if we got into a war with china like what's happening in Ukraine and started taking thousands of losses then what? We going to pack up leave and destroy the earth with a nuclear war? We spent 20 years in Afghanistan!! 20 fkn years! And got nowhere! Why did we get no where? Because we were to afraid to take loses and politicians made outrageous rules of engagement! God forbid if some of their civilians die we need hearts and minds. That wotked out fkn great!The taliban has completely taken over again and now they got billions of dollars worth of our equipment cause we didnt even pack up we just left! Our government is actively destroying America with their bs! The whole lgbtqrstunvshks bs the outrageous taxes, laws and so much more! America is FCKED!

Haven't seen the colour clip before of Guy Gibson with the model Lancaster. I notice not using the "N" word as one of the Dam breach codes after editing but otherwise the production seems very accurate. I was told by a guide at the RAF Scampton visitor centre (now closed) of Gibson and his short temper which is not surprising considering the pressure he must have been under. Thank you for preserving some of our important WW2 history.

But yet, the TSR.2 was just *TOO* limited in operational capability because it was primarily designed as a _nuclear_ weapons delivery platform. The Panavia Tornado that the RAF finally got from 1980 on could carry more (and a much wider range) of weapons and because it was a true variable geometry design with thrust-reverser equipped engines, could operate out of shorter runways, too.

@@militaryaviationtv But the RAF still needed a replacement for the rapidly-aging Canberra bomber by the early 1960's. They should have taken up Blackburn's offer of a larger, more capable version of the Buccaneer, which would have made it a very potent low-altitude interdiction platform and be operational by 1968. The RAF tried again with the Anglo-French AFVG project, but when that idea was dropped, they _finally_ joined the Panavia consortium in 1969, which resulted in the Tornado, the Canberra replacement that the RAF so desperately needed (and ten years later arriving than originally anticipated).

Looking at RAF GR1 and RFAA FRS.1 Harriers land in abysmal weather with two tanks, two AIM-9L, and gunpods, I keep rememebering that under their wings they have 30-40 knots of wind. 20-22 knots from ship's steaming into wind, and weather wind in Atlantic. 30-40 knots under wing for Harrier adds a lot of lift, so it can land with heavier GW then on shore with 5 knots wind. Deck crwss must have gone through a lot of hot coffee and tea, with cold tablets. This looks like miserable working conditions.

If you are an American please read the details of how this came about and you will see it wasn’t the fault of Somalis nor the us soldiers but 100% on us/UN politicians. The same lady that was assigned to Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war was also assigned here. They absolutely did not want peace in Somalia. Aided even invited us reps to for peace talks but they were insistent on shutting down radio Mogadishu and were aggressive throughout the whole time only after aideed defended himself did they come to their senses. All this could have been avoided

No not really. BAE was instrumental in development and is critical to construction and assembly of F-35 family, all variants, especcially B. RNFAA and RAF F-35B is not identical to USMC F-35B. Avionics, communications, weapons, differ on UK variant of F-35B. American variants use British components. Its too complex and expensive to develop aircraft for 21'st Century. UK cannot go it alone. Even back in 1970's UK cooperated with French on SEPECAT Jaguar, and with Germans and Italians on Tornado. F-4K, the RNFAA variant of F-4, had British RR Spey motors instead of American engines. Today if UK would properly fund Royal Navy and RNFAA, the two UK carriers would be CATOBAR operating mix of F-35C and F-35B. But that is not to be. Blame the successive Torey and Labour administrations for criminally underfunding UK MOD, and leaving EU. But that is who British people elect.

So basically once again the media has spun the history to deny Americans a more objective view of the historical events and their contexts. The report completely neglected the various attacks on Somalis made by American and UN contingents in June and July of 1993, in particular the "Bloody Monday" Raid on July 12, 1993. The US DoD officially reported using attack helicopters to kill 20 or fewer armed males attending a meeting in a building when many more Somalis from many factions reported that clan leaders, sheiks, intellectuals, poets, and many more luminaries of Somalia had met in that building to discuss peace terms and anywhere from 80 to 200 were slaughtered by the helicopter gunfire, including women and children. The attack caused so much outrage that four western journalists immediately reporting at the site of the attack were brutally murdered by Somalis in retribution. Authors and journalists called the "Bloody Monday" Raid the true turning point for many Somalis in their view of the American presence.

It was too limited as primarily a _nuclear_ bomber.

Over budget it may have been - but I can't help but think (beyond the politics of Jenkins, Mountbatten and many others) that the budget argument was so short sighted. As Beamont said, the aircraft had the potential to be continuously updated, particularly as technology ensured equipment became smaller. Thus the government would have got incredible value for money from a multi role aircraft that would have been in service for a very long time. The F111 scenario is also extraordinary - government climbing into bed with another high tech (and this time swing wing!) aircraft still being developed, with spiraling costs that resulted in cancellation appears to be a good example of TSR2 events repeating themselves. Farcical.

The main value of the TSR2 would have been as a testbed for prolonged Mach 2 flight. The Concorde suffered from the lack of a prior testbed (a) Concorde was forced to use high take off and landing speeds due to the lack of compressor air blown wings, allowing high angles of attack, with much lower take off and landing speeds. (b) Supersonic boom neutralization : TSR2 would have been a suitably sized testbed. (c) Once Mach 2 flight was developed, Mach 4 would be the next step, allowing Trans Pacific range.
