UK defence budget could be increased in wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine

  1. I think the Ukrainians have shown that the plan of removing anti tank squads and having anti tank spread throughly throughout the regiment with cheap nlaws and original anti tank squads staying with the heavier javalin has worked quite successful.

    The British were moving more towards this route with the new commando regiments so they will probably be spending that cash on a update to the nlaw, for more range.

    We just need a light cheap manpad that can be carried around to work with the starstreak.

  2. It’d would be nice if this meant more Challenger III’s, a reversal of the decision to scrap instead of upgrade Warrior and the retention of BATUS but I’m sure HMG will find some way to spend any increase unwisely.
