Just entered this. And refuse to get dragged into this but. On a 1 to 1 level. Most European nations field equipment on par or superior to the US.
The difference is the US invests most of its GDP into it’s military where most European nations funnel it into things like health care, education, etc.
So where a European nation fields 200 fighters. The US fields a 1000.
We know for a fact that something like a type 45 destroyer fielded by the RN outperforms pretty much anything in the US navy and is considered the best air defence ship in the world but Britain only has 6 of them, which is their main Achilles heel…

Whilst America may have made some of the best planes its a blatant lie to say they would curb stomp all their peers
Weren’t those scrapped and considered a total failure?

iirc there are only 2 of them and there aren’t plans to build anymore. So yeah kind of a failure.

You know that is largely considered a waste of money. And who knows how well they will perform in real life but carriers already could perform its intended roles.

Google says that America is the best country in the world and Russia and China are actually comically evil bad guys with top hats and twirling mustaches, so it must be true!

One can’t even compare Zumwalt to anything on that list as its not intended for carrier escort
Because the UK doesn’t have the budget to build 1000sof them.
We are currently building more type 26 and type 31 frigates.

yh then i can have my own doubts on the UK’s capability while they dont even produce any design of their own, perhaps they should stop buying US tech and just right away become the most dominant in the world by their own, just saying
STOP BUYING US TECH, if you feel so good about urself anyway
To change this topic to something less nationalistic
With the recent rumors and leaks saying the Rafale is coming (And it eventually will have to anyways) I hope the SPECTRA gets proper modelling and treatment, as well as Electronic Warfare in general, Sensor Suites included
