Well our Storm Shadows work pretty well, as Russia knows to its cost. And we built those entirely ourselves, unlike Trident which Lockheed Martin were responsible for.
Just like the country, the defence system is broken. Then the UK media tells the world about it. While access to foreign media outlets are restricted or banned. WTF is going on? “Stop the ride, I want to get off.”
Carrier unable to leave port due to engine issues. Now a sub can't fire its missiles. The MOD calling for less security checks on service recruits, more issues to follow (see the new tank programme). Who is running the MoD, Parliment or the Kremlin?
Low wages are a major issue. We have a shortage of engineers in the UK because wages are much lower here than in many other countries and we relied on European migrant engineers who have now left. No one wants to join the military to give there life for barely above minimum wage. I am an Engineer, I know I would make significantly more money in the US, Canada, Australia, NZ, Germany, Korea or Japan but I quite like it here and I'm not really motivated by money
@@TransoceanicOutreach It was NOT the first time the carrier engine failed. They can barely cross the park pond. Also, this was the SECOND missile failure. Useless!!
@@Ghosts1129I’m assuming here this was a Trident D5. If that is the case then it’s made in the US by Lockheed Martin. California. (Possibly all the versions) It is purchased and fielded by the UK from the US. The test failure is quite bad news, especially for those that carry the “NATO nukes work, Russia ones don’t” narrative. The headlines I see too are weird, they make it sound as if the missile decided to just fire itself “Misfire” instead of just fail like to actually launch and fly correctly during a test. Either easy, someone somewhere is likely to get a bit of a spanking for that one while they sort it.
The senior service is becoming a serious embarrassment, suffering a seemingly neverending series of equipment failures & faults caused by their planners, manufacturers & suppliers. If this latest fiasco is down to the missile, then Lockheed Martin should bear the full cost of this failed exercise and pay for every repeated attempts to get this right & soon. Two failures in 8 years, and no successful launch in 12 years of this system gives us no confidence that this multi billion pound white elephant is fit for purpose or can be relied upon to avenge us when we are being turned into radioactive ash by ruZZia or China.
Government incompetents make all decision that affect the grand strategy and strategy of a country and it's armed forces. This is why all mistakes happen.
why are we surprised by this? the UK government has defunded the military for decades, currently it appears diversity training is a more important issue in the armed forces than weapons and defence
@@iitzfizz It's a test, so yeah without a warhead, but it show's a weakness for us.. we do not have many nukes, but we won't be able to use them as they will blow the sub up xD
Two test failures in a row is concerning. It was so concerning I checked the last U.S. test in September, and it went off with no problems. One properly functioning Trident submarine carries more firepower than has ever been released.
What have 'russian cardboard tanks' got to do with the test fire of a new missile? The russians have been using T-55 tanks in the attack on Robotyne. These were first made in Russia in 1946, and Kharkiv (Ukraine) in 1948. Needless to say they didn't last long in combat.
What? Like the crap Abrahams M1 that breaks down all the time lol. Most if not all have been destroyed by Russia. Tell me how the USA and UK got on in Afghanistan? Iraq?
@@TransoceanicOutreachSo tanks made like 70 years ago destroyed and took over Ukraine with ALL its money and backing hahaha what an even greater embarrassment
People mocking UK failure forget that Russia, US, & China have failed in the past at exactly the same thing and regardless of failure there are nations that would wish to have a submarine never mind the actual launch system capability even in it's unready state. So I'm not really bothered about this.
Its not actually embarrassing for the UK. This is what testing is for. It is just the media as usual inflating its importance, and then all the losers write their brain dead comments.
Because this missile has cost us over one trillion pounds since early 2000 and it has a success rate of 33% meaning we have more chance to nuke ourselves, I'd say that's why.

Back around 1997ish a friend had been a new Royal Navy officer for about 18 months, when his commanding officer called him into the office to inform him that in 2008 his career progression would be 'Frozen' with no further promotions.. So he chose to get out of the Service.. What a waste of money, and who knew what, why and when? According to Catherine Austin Fitts, she heard that a 'Top Level' decision had been made in 1995 that the Top Money Powers had decided that the United States and The West were beyond redemption... etc. They have given up on us
We had the greatest navy in the world, and prided our self on having the best troops... Then this happens... Of all things this happens xD, Mayswell call us N.Korea 2.0... Our nukes don't go anywhere but back down to the sub xD
Ships that bump into each other, destroyers that can't sail in warm sea water, aircraft carriers with suspect drive systems and now this! Still the navy is getting better at diversity and so should solve its recruitment problems soon - so perhaps things are not so bad?
For it to fail twice in a row is an embarrassment and a massive risk. Trident needs to be completely scrapped, it's a massive risk to the people of Scotland and it doesn't even belong to the Scottish government.

That's illegal i'm afraid.
They might as well be in "anger" next time they test the missile since anger is not mutually exclusive to the test itself.
It is a military term, meaning deliberately fired for purpose! Don't panic!@redrum7475
