Royal Navy warships will be left without anti-ship missiles and be forced to rely on naval guns because of cost-cutting

There you go, cut back on defense because you're too busy spending on social welfare for Muslim immigrants who hate everything about your country.

I can picture students in the 24th century shaking their heads in disbelief as they read about the self-destructive impulses of Western democracies in the 21st century.

Obviously, bringing in millions of second- and third-worlders to boost the tax base was a brilliant plan.

You might as well not have a navy.

I guess we can expect more of this.

The Hood found the Bismarck and on that fatal day
The Bismarck started firin’ fifteen miles away
“We gotta sink the Bismarck” was the battle sound
But when the smoke had cleared away, the mighty Hood went down.

This is just as bad as the recent completion of 3 Zumwalt class destroyers in the USN. Obama cut their budget and the ships are completed, but there’s no funds for any ammo.

Wow Nimrods, Tornados, and Buccaneers used to be 30% of their ASW force. Now their ships are losing the missiles. Incredible.
