Defence Cuts
« on: 28 January 2011, 20:10:50 »

It seems the UK & her military allies are making the best of the Global Financial Crisis that has brought such eyewatering Defence Cuts.  ;D

Japan has reinvented the Kamikaze, albeit in budget form! Not so much 'Devine Wind' as 'Nice Breeze' ;D




The Federal German Army is making full use of the resources of their former East German adversaries, a good case of 'waste not want not' I think? ;D





The Royal Navy is making the best of a bad job too! Here is  the Gulf Task Force (all of it!) holding a 'Crossing the Line' ceremony whilst being deployed to Station on the deck of the French Aircraft Carrier ' C'est des Conneries' :o







The Royal Airforce seen here about to Flight Test  the latest in Budget Stealth Technology! :y






Due to the increasing number of 'Friendly Fire' incidents due to over reliance on weapons technology, President Obama has insisted the US Forces in Afghanistan take a more 'Hands On' approach to the problem. It's cheaper too! ;)





The Ministry of Defence has just announced swingeing cuts to Britain's largest Infantry Regiment 'The Rifles'. Manpower is being halved in a new cost cutting measure designed to trim the Army Defence Budget from it's present £250 to a more pawsible £102/19s/6d! as Regimental Spotters are replaced by a new cost effective measure that has been denounced as 'Barking!' by Defence Chiefs. :)
