    I was a radio operator in a special squad of HQ/COM unit of Estonia troops that was attached to QRH when this was filmed. British troopers are awesome and it was very enjoyable to help them out with mundane communications.

    Bit weird how politicians and journalists are saying that we might get rid of tanks because there’s no need for them. Despite the fact that we’re constantly doing exercises like this that require tanks and armour.

      It's because we still bloody need them I don't understand what hackers are going to do against IS a non uniformed army of terrorists with almost no technology the most they could do is sabotage communications between IS members but I'm fairly sure that's already being done, where as an MBT or the IFV's that the British army own can physically protect the troops +as old as chally's equipment is it is still the most accurate tank in the world and the one with the longest practical range

      They are now using unmanned tanks in Estonia, because of the lack of soldiers and because the normal tanks are just too expensive, and can easily be taken out by a Carl Gustav or a Javelin. So a unmanned tank is statistically and economicaly better, making normal tanks obsolete.

      @@cswpartridge They both have TES attachments/systems, but tend to not get used in those environments, FIWAF etc. Lasers don't do well with too much foliage, I also don't think there are enough out there for the shear amount needed for the Estonian style Wargames, and maybe the Estonians don't like em.
      So in Wargames like this they just use sort of 'umpires' to judge(the blue dudes). So here the rifle just lets them know they've fired the NLAW, so the umpires know who to kill or neutralize and apply points accordingly. Not that you ever get to know how you did where most of the time.
      We used to have to do the same thing even with GPMGs cause at one stage they brought in REALLY quiet blank adapters no one knew they were getting shot :D

Then in the summer I went to Bulgaria where it was +34°C and I didn't even really sweat, but when I came back to Estonia, near the Haapsalu region, +30°C felt like I was going to smelt away, with me swetting litterly liters of swet a day, having to carrying all the time with me a liter of water.

    Some caveats: Estonia is not Eastern Europe. Even by UN declaration we've been assigned as Nordic country, thou Denmark and Sweden have some bizarre reservation. Most vocal are the Finns. But we are Nordic country and in Northern Europe. We would we appreciate it the Brits would have taken this to account and started to properly refer.

      That is just a matter of definition. Most in Finland would say that Estonia is a Baltic country with a Finnic people, which would be technically true. Finland is usually counted as a Nordic but not a Scandinavian country, which is also a source of regular confusion even though it is true as those words are not synonymous.

      Noone in the worlds thinks this, only Estonians. We're seen as part of Eastern Europe becuase we're next to Russia (i.e in East geographically) and we were part of the Soviet Union and the Russan Emprie before that (thus politically). You can't change this. The only way anyone's ever going to see us as 'Nordic' is if we actually become as economically successful as Sweden/Finland etc as well as adopt their democratic social values. But even then it's tricky. And we are far from being like Nordic countries. We're still poor, bigoted, corrupt, narrow minded, not much better that the scummy russians.
      The point is, you can't change other people's perception of your country by telling them off or by begging. By doing so you're just making yoursel and the entire country look pathetic - and even more Eastern European. So suck it up.
      (Ps. I'm an Estonian abroad, I know what people think and how this looks).

      There are judges, and in most cases the one who win are decided basicly beforehand, depending on which side has more of tanks or soldiers or so on.
      There can be some shots fired and then a judge next to you can just basicly say that you have been hit or killed or something.
