British troops tested cutting-edge systems and technologies in the Mojave Desert and on the California Coast ☀️
Project Convergence Capstone 4 was a major war-fighting experiment that improved military interoperability between the countries taking part - the USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, France, and Japan.

Question: the image I have in my head of our army is one that barely can field what it has been using the last twenty years let alone adopting the "newest", most technologically advanced stuff. Like the civil service I see it as using barely running systems overstretched and behind the private sector. IS THAT TRUE? Or does it have capability beyond what I can imagine. Ya know, "modern warfare" tools etc?
@JPEight
@JPEight 7 күн бұрын
Maintaining old equipment is hard. Buying new equipment solves that problem. Yes, the military is behind the private sector, because all their equipment comes from the private sector. The private sector develops the kit and then the military decides if they want to buy it. There will always be a delay between those such that the cutting edge prototypes are 2-5 years ahead of the finished products on sale, and then probably another 2-5 years before the military buys, takes delivery, trains soldiers on the new equipment, and then deploys it.

High Tech Military Gear is great and of course the future, but what happens when this Smart Kits, does not work for some reason? Soldiers and Marines, still need to be able to do it old school as it were, with a Assault Rifle and Bayonet plus some British Guts behind them too! whether it is fighting in a built up area in cities and towns and clearing rooms one by one, or its back to First World War Trench Warfare in mainland Europe? or its Jungle Warfare in the Africa or South America and/or in Asia and the Far East, to Arctic and Mountain Warfare in either Northern Europe, Canada and Alaska or at the North and South Poles, let alone across the Himalayas too? Or Amphibious Warfare, Island hopping in the South and North Pacifica Oceans and across the South China Seas or in the Indian Oceans, or large scale Armoured Vehicle Warfare in the Deserts of North Africa and across the Middle East too. Or lastly carrying out Anti-Terrorism Warfare, or Airborne Assault Missions, plus Special Forces "Black Bag" Operations, anywhere in the World at any time and with little notice too. Military Smart Technology will only get you so far, sooner or later you need human boots and minds on the ground in the middle of battle, who are willing to fight and more importantly able to make human decisions whether to fight or not fight, or whether to withdraw or advance, or just take a different approach to a conflict, even holding talks with your enemy forces leaders too. AI systems will never replace a Soldier or Marines, or Special Forces operator and/or even a Para Human Mind, in the decision making process, especially when your so called Smart Military Technology breakdowns, or does not like the weather, heat or cold conditions, or just stops working, or the enemy is jamming your High Tech Systems too. Military Professional's, still need to be trained to fight and survive in combat, when everything does goes wrong, in other words "Murphy Laws" Basically Things will Go Wrong, at the Worst Possible Time and Place, then all you have is your training, knowledge, experencise and expertise to fall back on, so always be prepared to Adapt, Overcome and Improvise. The First Causality of Warfare, is the Battle Plan, even Military Smart Tech, cannot stop that from happening!

$10K is a small price to pay to save a soldiers life. The biggest cost by far is the soldiers themselves. Hiring rookies is cheap enough, but the cost of an experienced soldier is the lifetime sum of all their pay, all their training, food, equipment, lodgings, travel etc. A soldier with 10+ years experience is a million dollar asset (or more).

Research & testing, good. But the implied tactical benefits, less clear. Every scripted utterance has an unspoken caveat or counterpoint. Often painfully obvious from the visuals. Ststic, clunky slow-moving hardware. Complex tech, fragile tech... Cognitive overload thst is barely sustainable in training let alone a warzone. Degraded mobility carrying yet more pounds of hardware. Maintenance of the gadget. Set up times. Reliability! The real crucible (Ukraine) is right now, real time, life & death. Ultimately if nobody is willing to pay for the 10x costs (for dubious benefits), pointless.

In Afghanistan and Vietnam, the enemy knew their terrain and environment and used it very effectively. They were also hardened by the immensely tough lives they led in said environment. They were also fighting for their homeland in the face of invading forces, sometimes even hiding behind the women and children, knowing the majority of their invaders wouldn't want to open fire on them.

@@Jet-mb1of Partly true but the puppet government in Kabul plus a significant sector of the Afghan population, who also knew the lay of the land, were supporting the Allied Coalition. Moreover Pakistan is host to an enormous population of Afghans fleeing the nation, as indeed now the Western nations are burdened with. Similarly Vietnam, which was a civil war with the corrupt President Diem and Thieu supported by the US & it's allies. The RVNAF were similarly fighting for their homeland against the NVA and indeed, though the VC hid behind women and children the US were never hesitant to open fire. Mai Lai being a good example. This led to most of the new recruits to the NVA being from the south! No matter how you look at it the soldiers of the Taliban and North Vietnam outclassed us by miles, despite our technical 'superiority'. This holds true today and watching the British Army sneak away from Basra in the night and the coalition fiasco as the Allies ran away is us, despite our bluster, today.

This is worrying if this is the direction the British Army wishes to take for the future. Combat in Ukraine has shown us that everything gets blown up or severely damaged within a couple of weeks or less. All this fancy, super delicate, high maintenance tech will be out of comission very quickly in heavy combat. The comms tech and battery charging in field for drones was great (though I don't like us being so open with what our future communications tech is for infantry in the field) given how effective and advantageous drones are for recon and combat roles. I feel like those large Rheinmetal UCVs would be a very expensive waste for something that would be destroyed/disabled on the frontline quite quickly, they could be used in a support/logistics role ferrying munitions or medical and food supplies with troops having more loiter munitions or fixed position electronically controlled weapons systems for fire support whilst assaulting.
