What went wrong?
They're cannibalizing the PoW for parts

What went wrong?
Meh
Nothingburger
They had to explain the last time to a bunch of MPs what it means to cannibalise Typhoons for parts and "cannibalise" Typhoons for parts, oh god it was so cringe to see
Civvys really know nothing
Well, the ramp for starters.
yes there's already a thread about it,
please learn to use the catalog.
nah
Warriortard spamming already today?
Somebody post Russia’s AIDS stats.
>What went wrong?
The Magna Carta.
>telegraph
you know it’s bad when the bongs are self reporting
>needs 30 million lbs in repairs
>decide to scrap the entire 3 billion lbs ship instead
Why are Bongs like this?
Got to save money, it's the conservative way.
The UK seems determined to cut defence spending and force size with each government, yet also never stops making commitments for the next big expensive capability.
This is god you get MIC welfare projects like starstreak
they embezzled all the brexit savings, instead putting it back into the economy
>What went wrong?
WW2
>broken down
You mean in port for scheduled maintenance and repairs? Also there's a thread up already warriortard.
Scheduled maintenance on PoW wasn’t set to begin until 2026. Scheduled maintenance certainly doesn’t of removing parts of the ship to use on a different ship
>according to the Mail on Sunday
LMAO. DID YOU FRICKS EVEN READ THE ARTICLE? CITING LITERALLY THE DAILY MAIL. WHO IN TURN CITE 'NAVY SOURCES'. NOT EVEN A NAME.
I noticed the Brit’s have a very hard time accepting anything short of full blown praise for their military. Pretty funny to watch it play out daily on here.
frick off moron, i'm not even british, i just know what the daily mail is and don't gobble down msm articles like a good goy when the 'source' isn't even fricking NAMED.
the only thing playing out daily is Warriortard making threads like this one extremely butthurt about the UK and get laughed off the board
People are sick of Warriortard (likely you) spamming threads constantly. It shits up the board and we don't want to see it. You're doing the opposite of what you want to achieve which is for us to 'hate Bongs'. You're making me like them in principle and I'm from fricking Cork.
Fricking THIS
/k/ used to criticize the UK for being antigun, but that all changed when everyone realized that these daily threads were all the work of Warriortard, and it made everyone start to love the UK and hope they turn Russia into a nuclear wasteland. Simple as.
The average gen z american is non white and hates the west (particularly Europe)
>The average burger is actually brown
Fricking grim
>The average russian shill is non white
Fixed it for you
Lmao we should just speak Spanish when talking to United statesians
>Call mutts Ramirez as a joke
>That's their actual fricking names
Most Hispanics are White. Hispanic or Latino is an ethnicity, not a race.
No one believes warriortard actually exists. It’s just the bong boogeyman. It’s a way for you to derail threads that talk about British military gear. And yes, the 82nd is a rear echelon unit because of the huge number of APCs and only towed artillery
>No one believes warriortard actually exists
t. warriortard
How far the bongs have fallen
>Seethes every day about Bongs by starting spam threads
>Confused why everyone makes fun of him
Look like vatnik shills are not doing so well
You’re attributing someone else’s actions to me. That’s unhealthy
So you have gone from screeching Warriortard ain't real, to saying he is real and the daily spams are someone else's action? You aren't fooling anyone.
I never said he was real. You just keep saying I made a bunch of threads or something when that isn’t the case. This isn’t my thread either I just thought it was funny how quickly the prince of whales has turned into a spare parts ship
Keep going warriortard, this is quite funny to watch
This is a false flag poster designed to make British posters look bad. Anytime you see the word warriortard that is the case
>Warriortard damage control reaches next level
Too bad you laid it on too thick, and no one fell for it. Better luck next time.
Why do you speak for the entire board?
>no one fell for it
>everyone was kneeling in solidarity for the crown
Posts like that always make me cringe
Because the pattern to these threads and posts is too obvious for the board to not recognize it by now. You're only fooling yourself.
It’s a Twitter screenshot thread of an article. Pretty standard posting style. You really do think anyone who brings up the UK is one guy huh
The more defensive you get, the more it just proves the point about these threads
>You answered me back so I win!
incredible use of logical fallacy
>the whole board shares my pattern recognizing autism
kek he keeps doing it
And gIowie screecher makes his appearance to defend Warriortard's thread. Who could have guessed it?
You know you hit the nail on the head when you get 3 immediate screeches. based fellow bong noticer
The only screeching is Warriortard (you) seething about the UK, and seething about being found out
Amazing the Russians are projecting this hard given the status of Kuznetsov... The UK has enormous power over Russia apparently, to make them this butthurt.
> What went wrong?
The UK destroyed their own manufacturing industry because they found out they could make more money by having a third world country do it
Now they don’t have the knowledge or the workers to build thinfs
Good thing we built two then.
>nooo you can't just use parts from one on the other!!
Why not? If we're procuring replacement parts for the one in dock you might as well keep the other operational with the parts that work, and buy said parts in the same batch as the ones you were already replacing. It's literally the most practical thing to do.
the PoW was built my mongs or something.
if they were on better terms with the chinks, they could send it over for a full gut and refit with EMALS for about 3.50
America should do something about this. If the UK is losing a carrier than the USN may as well be too. This is unacceptable when china is threatening the stability of Pacific Asia
we can't bail out everyone all the time for anything. it's not sustainable
>If the UK is losing a carrier
It isn't.
Cannibalizing POWs is a war crime.
The warrior won’t be participating in Ukraine but all of the other major Cold War era IFVs will
>ship goes in for repairs
>have to buy replacement parts anyway
>use the working parts on the one that isn't docked
>buy the additional parts with the ones you needed anyway
I don't get why this is news
It isn't, but half this board is a bunch of fricking morons with no logistical sense.
The U.S. and U.K. do this with its ships and aircraft. If one unit is in for major repairs, or a major inspection. It becomes fair game for parts. The new parts usually arrive well before the end of the scheduled repair/inspection time.
This concept of repair and inspection cycles are lost on the ignorant.
These posters are being disingenuous. There is a difference between returning to port for scheduled maintenance, and having to steal parts from a working ship to give to another ship. The shortfalls in the production of parts is readily apparent.
>There is a difference between returning to port for scheduled maintenance, and having to steal parts from a working ship to give to another ship.
It had to go in because of a propeller decoupling or something to that effect, not because the other ship needed parts you absolute moron.
>it only counts in one specific scenario
>the ship is not actually deadlined because parts production is fricked!
I feel sorry for the amount of mental gymnastics british shills need to do
What the frick are you even talking about?
>ship goes in for repairs after specific part fails
>use the working parts to keep the other ship operational
>procure the additional parts with the ones you needed anyway
It's that simple. Your inability to understand simple logistics isn't the great argument you think it is.
How would /k/ fix the British military?
Hard mode: No nuclear strikes on London
The part that broke was American btw
Source
Proofs?
It was me. I am the American who made it.
So what happen today and set off our little resident schizo Warriortard to make this thread? Was it putin’s mouthpiece getting booted off FOX news? Americ**ts are great overall, but the 1776 larping needs to go
, if we are to have a united front against the vatniks. A positive sign today.
>Oil filters
>A lift chain
>Chain has already been replaced
>Oil filters would have been replaced anyway
Literally nothing
