If Argentina were to take back the Falklands this week, how would the UK go about getting them back? As far as I see it; I think that without any carriers/harriers the brits would be pretty fucked.
We'd just send the Duke of Edinburgh to Buenos Aires on a 'diplomatic mission' and as soon as he stepped of the aeroplane he'd set about telling them how they're all a bunch of wogs and owning countries is for white people. They'd immediately see his great wisdom and write a letter of apology to his wife, sending it along with some nice South American flowers.
Either that or the islanders would just welcome the Argentinians with their local cuisine and hospitality; they'd feed them boot polish and re-enact the burning scene from The Wicker Man. Argentina would immediately fuck this shit and, understandably, give up on the whole idea.
Unfortunately that "if" will never happen.
Argentina is weaker today militarily than it was 30 years ago. It has next to no powerful allies in the world (owes 'Murica shit tons of money and refuses to pay, shot and sunk a Chinese fishing boat etc) to recieve "humanitarian assistance" from, and is far too bankrupt to even consider buying or building new weapons.
Plus the British garrison on the island is much bigger now, with a full squadron of typhoons to fuck up any Argy shit that get close assuming it hasn't sunk by itself at that point.
Long story short, Argentina is effectively a non-country and the sabre-rattling is just to distract its population from domestic issues.

To protect us....

"Personal protection. If we get jumped by a rapist outside after dinner you can thank me later."
Say you where mugged and you want too be protected.
>hunting has been proven to increase wildlife diversity (deers are shit and by killing them you help all other wildlife in an environment) or just the wildlife itself being hunted (areas that allow legal big game hunting in Africa have seen an increase in the number of big five animals as well as other horned game animals because people will put money into the economy to hunt them).

Most of the comments are pure cucks.

I had no idea he was so poetic. He has the right mindset for a hunter. Sounds like a good conservationist.
>In a stark assessment, the US Air Force chief-of-staff warned that China’s People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) will be poised to overtake the US Air Force by 2030.
>“At the rate they’re building, the models they’re fielding, by 2030 they will have fielded—they will have made up that 2,000 aircraft gap and they will be at least as big—if not bigger—than our air forces," Welsh told the subcommittee.
We are not keeping up with that kind of technology development
US confirmed for cucked out of aerospace by not 2050, but 2030!.

Weapons are always so aesthetically pleasing and this are not the exception. They're so pretty.
>>29308887
They're actually quite impressive bits of wood carving, when I was doing some contract work in PNG I got to see a few of them from the locals (thankfully not at any velocity)
The bows are also quite a remarkable bit of gear, kind of around the size of an english longbow, shooting these 4-5ft long barbed pieces of shit around 100-120m with some accuracy.
Not that being shot with anything is fun, but I'd not be real keen on having one rammed through my guts, 'cause the fucker's not coming out without major surgery!
Those of you who have both...which do you prefer and why?
>>29308717
What you don't dual wield?
>>29308717
I tend to prefer the feel of an AR shooting, but I prefer the aesthetics and weight balance of an AK, if that makes any sense.
AR.
I shoot the AK when I want to feel like a zapman. AR for everything else.
The United States has just declared war on North Vietnam.
You now are in command of all US forces in Indochina.
How do you win the war?
Three quarters of what was spent on helicopters and airmobile infantry should have been spent on vehicles like the M113 and motorized/mechanized infantry.
Make a single, steady, south to north advance trough cities, jungles, everything. Make sure every corner of the country is clear before moving up.
Just like we beat the Japs in WWII...
Build a wall and make the North pay for it.
Should mentally ill people be allowed weapons?
>>29307732
SHALL
DESIGNATED
If by mentally ill you mean homosexuals, bisexuals, transsexuals, or fetishists, then no. They are non-humans and therefore not entitled to human rights.
What's your opinion of the German Sd.Kfz 250/251 halftracks of WW2?
>>29307082
probably the best troop transport of the war because of its off road abilities and its small arms resistance which allowed troops to fight while mounted
