      So far, there have been 30 Anglo-French wars in history.
      At this point I think both sides are reluctant to destroy one another out of fear of not being able to fight again.

      Well, the series of wars between France, and England/United Kingdom had been the longest-lasting conflict in World History (between two existing countries, anyway). The first time the king of France, and the king of England went to war against each other, had been in the 1100s (the conflict between king Louis le Gros of France, and his more powerful feudal vassal, king Henri Beauclerc of England); and the last time France, and the United Kingdom went to war against each other, was in the 1800s (the war between emperor Napoléon Bonaparte of France, and the United Kingdom).

    He failed to mention that UK and France have 5 wins each in Eurovision Song Contest, though both have diminished performance in 21st century. UK has shown more aggression with such titles as "Boom-Bang-a-Bang" albeit in a tied result. Difficult outcome to predict now with social distancing and no (French) kissing.

    If you are fighting in a full on war with an opponent a few miles away it doesn't make sense to go after the far away overseas territories unless you are in a position of extreme disadvantage. The point of the overseas territories is to use as a staging area against far away enemies. In this war the enemy will likely concentrate on lone ships and lone bases which are closer. If I were France I would be using Spec ops and strike forces for attacking radar sites, ports and lone ships in Wales and Scotland and maybe Northern Ireland to force the English to move troops to different parts of the islands and to stretch them out. Then I would use my large forces in large decisive engagements.

    The French have a much larger industrial capability than the UK. France uniquely builds most of what its military needs, including nuclear submarines, hi-tech warships, superb warplanes, tanks and artillery, whereas the UK buys a lot of hardware from the USA. Furthermore, the UK has wasted literally billions of pounds on badly conceived military purchases. France is a major player in the successful European Ariane space programme. What is the UK equivalent? Because the French are able decide what defence equipment they actually manufacture before its sale to their military, it is likely that they make better decisions as to the use of resources than the UK. France is the third largest exporter of military hardware in the world whereas the UK has fallen to tenth place - behind the Netherlands. France is likely very soon to overtake Russia into second place in weapons exports. Overall France is clearly the greater military power, though soon Germany's huge rise in defence spending will match and likely surpass that of the the French.

    These videos aren’t meant to be taken excessively seriously, but it’s sobering as a Brit to consider the advantages France would have in such a conflict (less reliance on the US for military spares etc / ability to keep land trade open with Germany, Spain, Italy etc, / ability to trade with the Far East via Marseille so long as the Suez Canal is open). But that said, Binkov will increasingly need to assess cyber war and drone capability in these videos, and just maybe the UK has an edge there. Last but not least, the 2021 British defence review makes more sense in this light - no real prospect of MBTs being used in such a conflict whilst naval forces and cyber would indeed be at a premium.

There are a gigantic number of U.S. systems that are made by U.K. companies. The F-35, the backbone of the USAF, needs British tech and sensor systems, plus other essential aspects. If the U.K. goes under, a lot of U.S. power goes with it. When push comes to shove, the U.S. knows the U.K. will always go with them (and bring its international influence to bear) and France, frankly, just isn't that important to the Americans.

    2:39 In conclusion, the Eurofighter is capable on paper of being able to point its nose much more quickly in the desired direction. As for the Rafale, is able to evolve longer with a higher angle of attack, and a lower speed.This conclusion could become a fact when we see the results of the various confrontations where the Rafale had to face the Eurofighter, where the latter systematically seems to be struggling during combat simulations in BFM. The lack of vectorial thrust planned at the start is lacking here. But its absence is even more problematic in another area, and it is not impossible that it is on the agenda of a future evolution of the device.

      @Alphavortex108 thanks to the germans who had already won the war, the itlians attacked when it was sure that they will win. They suffered terrible losses and even failed to take a bridge defended by 9 french soldiers, (the italians were like 9000).

    you appear not to have factored in the anti-air capability of the Type-45. They are reported to be able to track 1000 tennis ball sized objects and shoot 70 miles. A single Type 45 also has roughly the same ability as 5 Type 42 destroyers used in the Falklands. Also SAS and SBS raids may be able to knock out SAM sites or other threats

      Bro, the French Navy does also have state-of-the-art air-defence destroyers: Horizon-class plus the newly-inducted anti-air variant of the FREMM-class. (But T-45 or Horizon would be hunted and sunk as a priority by nuke attack subs.)

      I don't think people are appreciating just how fucked the Brit Navy is, Exocets are fleet killers, seriously. If the French had gotten them to the Argies before the falklands war, the Brits would have lost it. Argies had just 6, and managed to sink a Brit destroyer having only fired two at it (HMS Sheffield)

    • @ImSorryFive
      @ImSorryFive 3 года назад +1

      @MyAqaa Not really. While I'm sure many US vessels are well equipped to deal with Exocets, the existence of said tech doesn't mean it's been implemented across the board, certainly not by the British navy.
