Royal Marines train for HUGE NATO exercise in Norway

- British commandos have been training for one of NATO's biggest exercises in Norway.
Exercise Cold Response ensures allied forces remain at high readiness, prepared to serve in one of the world's most challenging environments.
However, since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the fictional scenario it's followed for years of a sovereign nation being attacked feels all too real.
We were given special access to their warfare and amphibious training ahead of the exercise.

Given the need to project power at short notice around the globe, it makes a huge amount of sense to me to expand the Royal Marines, and the amphibious capacity of the RN. The RM's are superb soldiers- bordering on SF, given the diverse range of their skills and abilities. There are none better at their role- including the American's. We need more of them, a larger more potent RN. The ability to park a carrier battle group offshore, accompanied by a powerful rapid deployment force would represent a major boost in military capability for Britain. What we have is superb, we just don't have enough of it! UP THE ROYALS! *RESPECT* from an ex-infantryman.
Well said. More will be asked so more men and equipment are needed, as well as stuff to protect their actions.
I agree with everything you said but sadly not sure how easy it would be to expand their numbers without the inevitable lowering of standards. Their small number highlights just how few can make the standard.
Don't know why the jab at Americans...we protect NATO more than any other, although we're glad to have our fantastic allies in NATO.
@@Kaiserland111 It’s not really a jab. Simply other NATO marines are different to the American marines.
@@Kaiserland111 Don't think it was a JAB. None better, essentially as good as. Not worse or better. Equal
Glad to have you guys on our side. May peace prevail!
Such difficult and dangerous work. Thank you all for your service.
So, basically, this is the operation that covered the Nordstream sabotage by the American special forces and their Norwegian accomplices, as recently unmasked by a famous investigative journalist from the New York Times... Interesting
Thank you for this report. Huge respect for the heroic men & women in this important task force, carrying out very difficult tasks. Praying for everyone’s safety during the rigorous training. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
Great job!
Greetings from Estonia.
Good to see some representatives from the Royal Australian Navy!
AUKUS FTW! 🇬🇧🇺🇲🇨🇦🇦🇺🇳🇿
TOTALLY AGREE with you my friend. spot on comment ❤
Training is perfection
These are the best of the best ✊🏼
Massive respect to all special forces
Royal Marines Arent special forces.
@@trentestic4574 yeah alright mate elite forces
Lol
Tremendous amount of Respect for sure !!
I think what matey Joe Trentestic was on about is Special forces being SAS, SBS.
Elite infantry Paras, RM or RAF REG
Special forces 🤣🤣🤣
No bragging, just business. Respect from Finland!
Great job. Keep up the snow training incase we have to go kick some Russian ass. Keep up the great work. UKUS
they go siberia if needed .. no terrain nor weather be cast 24/7 all day long
Jeez in my day 45Cdo Zulu we used to swim ashore with speedos on.... Clockwork North 80s ;-)
Thank you. This was a fascinating insight into the great detail your forces go to to keep their men safe.
Very good just a shame we have such limited budget & resources in this area.
That'll likely soon change in response to the eastern threat.
The Russians appear to have struggled to modernise, strategically Putin's threats backfire and they have an aging population with very low birth rate. They have to suspect moles and apportion blame, playing a survival game.
Basically the ex-USSR occupied countries have been vindicated, while the shock of Germany's strategic trade decisions will have a chilling effect on private investment.
We are very aware of our shortcomings but tend (rightly) to overestimate the adversary's conventional capabilities.
@@RobBCactive interesting analysis, thank you.
@@OmmerSyssel 😁 I am glad someone read it, thank you. I'll add.
There are still young educated Russians leaving by rail (200k) a whole city of workers.
Russian air force procurement dropped to about 30-35 jets annually after 2014.
I cannot see how Russia can afford a cold war nevermind a hot one, they modernised slower than the USSR stock ages under the 2014 sanctions.
The Royals are probably my favourite fighting force. I'm so glad they weren't folded into the RN in the last round of defence cuts.
They’re part of it and have been part of it since inception
???
@@rogerpalin5864 The royal marines are the infantry arm of Her Majesty's Naval Service also known as of recently the Royal Navy. somewhat separate though
I liked your comment but Marines _are_ Navy (kinda)
The clue is in the name
@@tunaconsuma I joined the Corps in 1985 and left in January of this year, pretty sure I know what I’m on about. Every Marines ID card states Royal Navy across the top.
Best of 'the best', this lot. Full respect and admiration to them.
Royal Marines : Well done lads, now we do it at night, blindfolded, hands bound....under live fire.
Russian conscript : Hello, we've shot our C/O, we want to surrender please. God Save the Queen !
Increase military spending as much as Germany our current military status is shameful
exactly from controlling half the world with a good size army of 700.000 to 190.000 and a lack of equpiment
@@officialJoebiden might have something to do with the fact we aren't in control of over a 1/3 of the world's surface anymore? I dunno just putting it out there...
@@officialJoebiden Doesn’t a very large army only threaten and escalate war and arms further. It is better to have a quality well trained smaller army with the latest technology than try to show off with many obsolete tanks for example. The nature of modern warfare has changed and what worked in the past is not what will lead the U.K to its future which is what Putin’s army is only beginning to learn with outdated machinery and tactics.
@@ianarn right so we just sit here unprepared like we have been for every war?
@Ryan ok and what is your point maybe if we stop giving out benefits to people who are fit to work
This happens every year in Norway
Was there in '76
Yer they like to film it as it’s good for recruiting 😀
No, every second year..
Last time was in 2020, but cut short due to covid.
God bless for the royal marines🇬🇧💪
religious vomit
We in the UK are so lucky to have the best armed forces in the world 👏👏👍
Be safe guys! ❤️ greetings from an old friend 🇵🇹
Britain's oldest ally!! 🇵🇹🇬🇧
We love Portugal 🇬🇧🇬🇧🥰🇵🇹🇵🇹
A very old friend indeed, the oldest
The oldest friend 🇬🇧🇵🇹
It really bothers me that we don't capitalise more on this, socially and economically, as well as militarily.. our non-Anglo cousins are as important as those we seeded ❤🍻
Ronaldo should play for England Im sure he’s Nan has English blood,oldest ally 👍
I was there in 2006 on board Hms Ocean.
This training was put to good use during the Falklands War
❤
It looks awfully chilly.
What do you mean by rough weather? This is the way the weather always is here at this time of the year.
Awesome force
Nice to see an Ozzy on Long look
Peace ❤️❤️❤️
makes me SO PROUD to have our Forces being the best in the world. Genuinely. no disrespect to other nations ESPECIALLY Ukraine.... but the British forces are magnificent.
Thank you so much women and men and commanders and MOD.
❤❤❤❤
As an Irishman we understand the strength of the English my grandfather served with the royal Irish and he always said how strong there army is
@@user-ze8yy8jg1f my family are also Irish mancunians. Anglo Irish... better together, everyone. Thank you to your grandfather. 💪 Stay safe my friend. 💪💖
I was infiltrated to a beach by the RM back in a previous lifetime, the ride in by rigid raider was one of the most exciting parts of my service, great fun on the beach too letting rip a 200 round belt in short order until everyone else was ashore. I look back like it was someone else there or I dreamt about it.
what do you mean by infiltrated to a beach?
@@recur9245 sneaky stuff, way passed where they expected anyone to be.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE MATE!!!💪💪💪💪💖 every single person in this country ought to be taking "a knee " for you guys n ladies.
no disrespect to other nations ESPECIALLY Ukraine OBVS.
but you always seem to get totally undervalued historically and I pray this changes.
god bless you Oz too.
better together. always will be. x
@@recur9245 picky lol. maybe a typo due to ptsd my friend. give ya head a shake lol. tut ❤
Love these ships wonder what the next generation would look like.
Helllooow from a Finnish Guy, YEEEEEEEEBUDY:D
I listened to Colonel Hindsley of the Guards and he speaks exactly like you. Is there a school for speech for Commanders.
ALL APPROVED.
What a Proud Sight, I must Say 🥰
Great respect to the British troops. But other countries are also there with their best troops. A lot of marines are participating in those exercises. Gods speed and we are praying for you.
Agreed, in particular a big shout out to the Norwegian Army, who are a force to be reckoned with in the Artic environment.
Looking at its waterline, it appears to be significantly down astern. Is that deliberate? eg do they partially flood it once they get on-station to help the amphibious vehicles to deploy etc?
Yes.
Oh look Putin …. A proper army !
And we respect every single one of those men
Just saying….
A proper army? Not for 30 years. Only 75,000 British army personnel, no matter how good they are they don’t stand a chance in a conventional war. Stop the army downscaling
@@tomsoki5738 russia respect their armed forces massively also.
Is this the same exercise that used be calledl Ex Hardfall?
It’s done every year. They change the name to make people think it’s new.
👍😊
There's nothing like seeing NO STEP markings on the most rugged equipment in the World regardless of Origin Country lmao
Eternal training and vigilance.
That's the Nor-way to do things! Love from Scotland :)
Not the DK (Divided Kingdom)
These guys are bad-ass and train in that environment, how about the people that work in that environment all year round, like the Norwegian military? :o
Yeah right. Imagine their house wife's, farmers, fishermen, craftsmen and all the rest busy making Arctic Norway running on a daily basis 🌬️☃️🌨️😱🤣🤣
El A-37 B es el avión principal de algunas fuerzas aéreas latinoamericanas.
En EEUU la version T-37 Tweet. (T por trainning) por su cabeza abultada era cariñosamente llamada el Tweety Bird (nombre del pájaro Piolin de la caricatura "Piolin y Silvestre").
En otros países lo llaman el piriquin o sapito.
Y se fabricó entre los años 1955 y 1975.
Y sirvió en EEUU como entrenador hasta el año 2009.
Se le hizo una pequeña modificación para convertirlo en entrenador de ataque a tierra. Esa versión se llamó T-37 C.
Y resultó ser una plataforma muy eficiente en ataque a tierra, por lo que la USAF le pidió a Cessna que produjese una versión de ataque a tierra más potente.
Así nació el A-37B. "Dragon Fly" (La mosca dragón) Y participó en misiones de apoyo estrecho en la guerra de Vietnam armado con cohetes, bombas y su pequeña ametralladora de 7,62mm. (Punto .30)
En su nariz lleva el tubo "probe" que le sirve para ser reabastecido en vuelo mediante el sistema mangera con canasta, o "drogue" desde un avión Hercules KC-130 o un Boeing KC-135. Por lo que el A-37 B puede llegar a distancias bastante largas.
Como era muy barato, resultó ideal para la exportación a países "pobres" amigos de EEUU. Y es así como los excedentes de la guerra de Vietnam se vendieron a algunos países en Latinoamérica.
Pero los llegados a Chile fueron contratados a la fábrica Cessna en 1974, fueron fabricados y llegaron nuevos a Chile volando desde su fábrica en Wichita, Texas, en Junio del 1975.
Por eso los que están en el inventario de Chile están en mejores condiciones que los que llegaron a otros países.
De eso se desprende que Chile haya podido revender algunos de ellos a otros países latinoamericanos. Y que estos estén todavía volando operacionalmente.
En 1992 Chile recibió una partida de aviones AO37-B, de parte del surplus de EEUU, ya que estaban en almacenaje. Estos tienen una probe más larga y están optimizados para la observación o reconocimiento. aunque pueden ser armados al igual que la versión A-37B.
Los aviones A37-B de Chile no se usaron mucho porque fueron reemplazados por los A-36 y T-36 (CASA-101 armados por ENAER). porque su operación era más económica y proporcionan un mejor desempeño al ser aviones más avanzados.
De ahí que pasaran a la mantención en reserva en muy buenas condiciones. Y pueden volver a ser reactivados y cumplir su tarea de ataque a tierra si es que se hace necesario.
Otros países los han seguido usando hasta sobrepasar el fin de sus límites de horas de vuelo, por eso se han caido algunos.
Un ex FACH T-37 está colgado del cielo de la estacion del metro "Cerrillos". Recordando su antigua base en esa localidad.
Great to see the goings on preparing for such a huge exercise. The boys would be like "Are you kidding? We have to do it again?" If it ever kicks off for real, which looks increasingly possible these days, when it's done for real, it will seem like routine.
Exercises like these are what puts NATO forces above our potential aggressors. We give huge attention and resources to the logistics
proper exercises. that’s the difference
I'm no expert but is this the only craft, I feel this leaves us exposed. Feel this needs more investment for the northern flanks.
HMS Albion has a sister ship HMS Bulwalk which is currently in extended readiness meaning if a crisis broke out she could be activated within 7 days. Both ships were nearly scrapped a couple years ago as part of defence cuts but luckily that decision was reversed
should be more personnel
comms 2 ground forces ... all day long 24/7
Don't mess with the RMCs!
6:01 well, that looks disturbingly messy for a 2022 army I must say . . .
Nie ma Royal Marina.
To wszystko
Please don't send them away to fight and die needlessly
👍🏻❤🍻🇬🇧
Stayong at home is similar, most of uk has been annexed by foreign dictorship, political corruption and vile coorporations.
I am sure they will do the job though. Won a war and lose the country again, again and again.
Poor seamen ship on the bow shackles attached to the release system for the landing craft being lowered into the water. All shackles etc should have wire wrapping to secure the pins from coming loose and falling out possibly causing serious injuries or death.
Somethings never change. In that world it seems that everything is in various shades of black and gray and dirty white, just like in the days of the hunt for the Bismarck.
Ahhh poor UK….can’t let go of the sun that never sets…..
Best army in the world
Need to be as well armoured as this reporter teeth
This looks like Sir Gallahad allover again
Now, think of the old Norsemen ! yeah.
This is why they are the best in the world.
@Drew Peacock lol cope my guy. SAS are the top dogs
@Drew Peacock SAS is british origin mate. Royal marines are just as good. Now you see why the comparison?
Reporters sorry
Putin watching from behind his sofa.
ITS NOT WHAT YOU THINK
the thought has crossed their mind,, we must agree on other terms my friend,, peace 🤨
Glory to Ukraine !!!
So, during actual war do the soldiers take the glow stick off their head?
Yes cool Men !!
BZ everyone......especially my Nephew on D36

There's nothing fun about it.....nope it sucks! But train and train and train makes it all run like clock work without even thinking about it....
God save the Queen, Slava Ukraini
Can you imagine Putin`s shabble going up against these highly trained men and women ? ..hehe.
British Commandos would run rings around them.
This is not a slick act
whats wrong with our leaders? whats wrong?
Looks like the kit to return the dinghy divers stright back to war torn france and get lots training
Your'e Late . Should already be practicing for Polar Operations ,....The next Arena ....comming to a theater near you soon !
She needs a bit more air defence.
She is meant to be protected by fleet vessels. IE:Destroyers and Frigates so she has limited self defence capabilities.
@@thespiritphoenix3798 the RN is chronically short of enough picket ships, what with 2 carriers.
@@liamh9814 I totally agree we only have 18 escort ships which frankly is only enough for 3 of our large surface vessels (we have 4) and even then we do not have enough for individual patrols in order to maintain our global commitments.
@@thespiritphoenix3798 a couple of star streak platforms would not take up much room.
@@liamh9814 yeah and Phalanx defense systems would be great as well.
Norway because rest Europe unable to supply fuel required?
What??? No Russian trolls telling how great the Russian army is, and NATO forces are incompitent?? What happens???
Let’s face facts….the U.K. military is too too small.
But still better than most, you dont need a huge army if you know how to use it. Clearly russia doesnt...
It’s excellent, but it needs to be enlarged as a national priority.

If Russia invades Finland, Sweden & Norway, will NATO respond?
Well obviously it will respond if members of nato attacked,… but obviously Sweden and Finland aren’t NATO. A VERY quick Google search gives answers…
Norway is in NATO, so yes.
Define “respond”.
@@georgemorley1029 Respond so war m8 it's part of the agreement.
Yes. By sanctions
LMFAO. I live in the far north east of Norway. I can teach you lot what it's like to live and work in a 'Cold environment' 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
But can you do it carrying 100lbs living weeks with out shelter and marching 40 miles a day, you cannot teach the Royal Marines nothing, they taught you lot in the second world war how to fight in cold climates. you muppet.
@@mark-se6ef Dude. You want to come and clear the snow I have to that's been slammed against my car every single day. It takes 5 hours a time to clear it and it's every day. 100lbs is a packet of crisps to me mate.

Yes, you can, but it’s the fighting element that the RM brings. Norwegians help to train the RM on how to handle cold and the environment, but the RM and the commandos before them have been doing this for decades.

What a self centred video.... It sounds like they has been on the backside of the moon. The Brits were not there alone....
....and what about the Norwegians who lives there the whole year around? "Best in the world on Arctic warfare". They have a lot to prove. Rather more like Bambi on ice....
