ZF I see. Much easier to get parts for than CCP/Allison. Have fun with the Oshkosh 😅

You probably shouldn’t admit to being an Australian but this bushmaster is very special.

Bushmasters and other Australian equipment is one of the best crafted

Thanks to you and your country for helping Ukraine. Greetings from the Philippines

@@loveandmoney What's the problem with being an Aussie?

💪 UKRAYINE 🔱 Mui gracias Sedes bem vindo Austrália.🤝 💙Pátria UKRAYINE 💛

We are so proud to help as best we can. 👍

Pleased to help! A lot of us here are pushing our government to do more. Aircraft, for example. We have them. Ukraine needs them.

How counter-offensive is going?

@@fisix6 The F/A 18's we had have either been sold to the RCAF or the airframes are too old to be of any use.

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 Heroyam slava!

Good boy/girl! Aussie Aussie Aussie,Oi Oi Oi!

@@Justanotherhumanonthenet No Aussie has ever died in one to this day all through Afghanistan and Iraq and many have been hit by RPG and IED. Many Australian's have sufered bad injuries inside but better then dying.

How so?

@@alanweston4524….. by walking away alive after being hit by a Russian lancet drone or tank mine……most likely the vehicle itself won’t survive.

Thanks! for the tools! 🇺🇸

Not all Aussies war monger

That’s what passes for an RV in Australia. If you silly buggers sent them about a dozen Marines, they could wrap this shit up by Christmas. Two dozen and it could be over by next weekend. We’d have to drop them into Rostov though. We wouldn’t want them anywhere near where there might be a decent beer.

@@user-oh7ph2cu6w You didn't get Royal Marines too? Maybe that was sailors I was drinking with...

Help what? Arm terrorists who kill civilians every day? ???

Help what / get more people killed ? Keep commenting US puppet

@@bot1a543 When ?

The Abrams unfortunately are going back to the US when the new ones arrive. Condition of the sale.

@@goodshipkaraboudjan Hopefully for any refurbishment required and upgrades before sending on to Ukraine.

Agreed!

Our F/A 18's (the ones with time left on the airframe) have been sold to the RCAF, the rest aren't airworthy.

@@Smokeyr67 PUBLISHED Jun 14, 2023 After the {Australian} upgraded FA/-18A/Bs were retired in 2021, Texas-based adversary air contractor RAVN Aerospace (then called Air USA) entered into an agreement to purchase up to 46 of the multi-role fighters. They are currently housed at RAAF Base Williamtown in varying states of airworthiness."Considering what is happening in Ukraine, and the country's extreme need for Western fourth-generation fighter capabilities, having dozens of upgraded F/A-18s in good condition just languishing in storage seems like a remarkable missed opportunity. With this in mind we {WARZONE} set out to get to the bottom of the status of the Hornets and what could be possible not just in terms of providing fighters for Kyiv's cause but also rapidly training pilots and ground crews to support that cause. "Finland has 62 F/A-18C/D multirole fighter jets and 64 F-35s on order. -- Canada recently finalized a deal to purchase F-35As to replace its fleet of CF-18 Hornets. -- In 2021, Switzerland selected the F-35 to replace the Swiss Air Force’s existing fleet of 30 ‘legacy’ F/A-18C/D Hornets. -- Spain will be concluding Hornet operations in the coming years as well. Other international opportunities exist, too. -- This includes Kuwait's notoriously healthy F/A-18C/D fleet that is being replaced, and possibly U.S. examples, as well. While all this remains in the discovery stages at this time, at least publicly, we have seen other advanced weapons acquisitions for Ukraine ramp up drastically if the powers that be come together on the subject. The optics of shredding capable jets that are well suited for Ukraine's needs while the country is begging the world for 4th generation fighter capability would be abysmal, regardless. By Boyko Nikolov On Apr 21, 2023 The F-35s came to Australia to replace the aging fleet of F/A-18 Super Hornets that had long guarded Australian skies. They are no longer needed and Canberra has phased them out in recent years. Of course, a year ago Australia was able to sell Canada some of its Hornets. 12 F/A-18A and six two-seat F/A-18B Hornets flew to Ottawa to replenish the Royal Canadian Air Force [RCAF]. Canada will need them to maintain operational readiness until Canadian F-35s begin arriving regularly. But at least 24 F/A-18 Super Hornets remained in Australia’s hangars. They no longer fly and are no longer used for training, but gather dust slowly aging on the ground. These fighters are operationally ready as they flew until two-three years ago. What’s more, the Australian Hornets have undergone a serious modification, which increases their value even more. Australian Hornets have been upgraded to the A++ level. Under their wings are still armaments worthy of defending Australian territory. We are talking about AIM-120 AMRAAM and ASRAAM air-to-air missiles that can meet any threat coming from the air. There are of course weapons that can attack ground targets, such as the Paveway II, JDAM-ER, AGM-158 JASSM, and Harpoon missiles. The last two are even led by stealth technology.

Yea no Aussies has died in one to this day and have served in Afghanistan and Iraq. Is a blown up one on display in Australia as testimint to no one dying in it.

Well said 😊

You can't be serious! Research what happened in 2014.

@@luminatrixfanfiction🤡

Next is 🇦🇺 F18s for 🇺🇦 ( that are going to be scrapped ) US needs to approve these transfers so this War can be won quicker before 🇷🇺 builds up thousands of drones itself to attack cities, civilians and then military targets …💙💛💙

​@@luminatrixfanfiction You pour guy. 🤡

IMO …by supply 🇺🇦 with the weapons that they need now to Win quicker ,..saving more Ukrainians lives…. You are putting off China’s invasion of Taiwan by 10 years + , meaning 🇦🇺 ,US and others won’t have to die sacrificing their lives to protect another democracy in the near future

Its fantastic that your country is supporting terrorists?? What is wrong wit You?

Bloody oath 🇦🇺

What are these cats?

@@markiyanhapyak349 military catamarans capable of hauling hundreds of vehicles at a time. They travel twice as fast as ships the same size.

@@_Sammy_J When the war started, Turkey closed the strait to all military ships. I don't think they could legally access Ukraine by water.

YES Lets get those F18s in the sky over Ukraine. Im sure their are plenty of ex NATO pilots who would volunteer

Those RAAF F/A-18A HUG 3.1 Hornets have been upgraded and are formidable machines.

The F/A18 thing isn't going to happen - not only have our low airframe hour hornets been sold to the RCAF, but it would take at least a year to train pilots and more importantly ground crew to operate them.

spot on, Canada grabbed them with glee, F/A18 with low cycles and stored in low humidity

It’s already happening.

Independent? 🤣 both are told what to do by their masters in the USA or they will get "consequences" wake up ffs.

I wish our people would hurry up with the Hawkie vehicles.

I do a monthly donation to Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors without borders) and gave an extra amount for Ukraine, where they're currently working. They are volunteer doctors and medical staff saving lives and don't take government funding so they're not obligated to any country. They do an amazing job so if anyone's thinking of donating I highly recommend them. Slava 🇺🇦 from 🇦🇺
