Rosyth Massive Military Convoy 2023

[@jameskvo]

It's a convoy carrying Rishi Sunak's money to a new bank

No SNP MSP's Christmas bonus and the Ferguson Marine executive bonus.

[@debbieobrien4204]

This makes me so proud to be British. Thank you for your service x

[@muckychimney]

Looks like command and control units and poss radar for UAV's, this isn't a Nuke convoy as there's no Defence Fire Service vehicle.

[@robbrownfield7677]

As stated elsewhere, UAVs Nuclear warheads and rods are transported with a fire engine in attendance. (yeah, I know, like keeping in the wind).

[@WgCdrLuddite]

Am I the only one wating for that hawk kite to dive down and go BOOM ?

[@lindaj5492]

😂😂 I’ve seen bird scarers like that on city buildings, to keep pigeons off.

[@jacklav1]

Whenever I see these convoys it always surprises me that the cameraman knows when they will be coming through. Isn’t that a basic security risk?

[@BobBobson-q5i]

Lol

[@skidz3124]

No not a security risk gun's are illegal in the UK and tht convoy has more firepower on tip than a camera guy plus up here in Scotland we don't do half the shit your seeing TV from other parts of UK plus there travelling through a army navy base

[@skidz3124]

Was a for the sub probz warhead or missiles

[@tacticalvelociraptor9458]

DAF must have a good contract with the Ministry of Defence. Good video capture.

[@AzzY300689]

DAF are part of PACCAR, which also owns Leyland Trucks, the Army used to use Leyland trucks, in 1987, DAF bought 60% share in Leyland becoming Leyland DAF, Leyland DAF were bought by a management buyout in 1993, acquired by PACCAR in 1998 and all trucks are now branded as DAF (also owned by PACCAR). All DAF LFs are designed and built by Leyland Trucks, Leyland, all RHD CF/XF models are also built by Leyland Trucks. Basically, RHD built DAF trucks are British....

[@gregchapman5556]

Interesting. That amount of security is normally only used on the Trident warheads being transported. Those aren’t the vehicles used for that.

[@greigs9384]

I’d say a training convoy with the real carriers substituted by rather old DAFs

[@sgt-willkillu]

Ermm..., Well sorry everyone but I can confirm this was the day my misses accidentally farted whilst getting out of bed, the whole area was evacuated because the government thought we were under some sort of chemical attack.

[@DarrenJamiesonJamieson]

​@sgt-willkillu First mate! I'm going to tell you're misses what you just said about her. Then I'm going to privatise our nuclear monopoly for the sake of Ukraine war protesters. Then I'm goingvto make Scotland a US state (for freedom). In exchange I can offer you this: kzbin.infoPPNIDl0zjho?si=MEfOCa8VnCyV04FA

[@gurglejug627]

@@BobBobson-q5i well, as I said - documented, filmed, and actually unequivocal yet you seem to live in denial along with oh so many. I wonder if you have spent time with refugees and 'refugees' and in camps and in Muslim countries, as I have? As for your Daily Mail comment, it's rather a small minded way of thinking - apart from a poor attempt at being desultory, as most/all of Britain's mainstream media is politically biased and hopelessly innacurate/unreasonable in its reporting, I don't live in the corrupt filth which the UK has sadly become. I note that of the many hundreds of left wing pro mass (and note it's UNVETTED) immigration, not one, not a single darned one would give up their own home for a 'refugee' - there's is just a sick, possibly mentally ill virtue signalling and wish to spend money they never earned and change the lives of others who were never asked. If you are ok with foisting your beliefs on others then I suggest you go to a Muslim country and stay there: like it or not, it's effectively a dangerous and controlled cult which has its own schisms and cannot separate church and state matters. Great perhaps:- but not for us, who have our own culture and laws. Little doubt you will say 'I don't believe you' but trusted sources within Border Force whose job i is to flag up for refusal dangerous types have been told to "let them in"- no exagerration. Fact. I suspect you need to learn more before forming your opinion.

[@keziasarah]

Whats the reason for the coaches?

[@MxMoondoggie]

Civilian coaches are used to transport military personal between bases. Given that this is near a RN base it's probably equipment that will be transported overseas to another base and the crew that will be doing it along with specialists who know the equipment heading to the base.

[@chuckfinlay6093]

The Civilian Coaches will be part of the convoy and will have either Military/Civilian support or MDP officers onboard. They tend to be tail end Charlie’s along with the Recovery Wagon and Spare Artic Unit.

[@broken_biscuit6716]

Was the white ford transit and white mazda part of the convoy? Or are they just civis that got caught up in it?

[@LewisMacdonaldMedia]

Yes they are part of it. Last vehicle is the MOD tow truck

[@johnsmith0078]

Yeah, usually something that requires servicing and you don’t really want to be anywhere near it ever! Ask the Japanese

AWE Convoy

Carrying what exactly?

[@kevinsmith-dn1px]

​@@BobBobson-q5iNo idea unfortunately! The Trucks that house the Warheads aren't there, but fairly confident they are part of the AWE. Could be wrong though 🤷‍♂️

[@ChrisBarrow-617]

Why Leuchers ? Not an RAF station any longer.

[@allythevan]

Combined military unit. Army/RAF.

[@Stumack1427]

Leuchars became an army base and called Leuchars Station in 2015 when the Army moved troops back from Germany. The QRA that was stationed there was moved to Lossiemouth. I am guessing due to cuts in funding. There is still a runway there and it is routinely used by the P8's and Typhoons to practice aborted landings.

Far too many police. Smacks of bad planning.
