well i tend to define british war effoerts, particularily into 3 groups, the Hunter era 1950-1960, any thing that happened when the hunter was our primary jet, the Lightening era1960-1980, anything that happened when the EE lightening was our frontline jet, and, suprisingly enough, the tornado era 1980-today, stuff that's happened with the tornado as out primary jet............

Surprised you didnt comment on my posted statistics up there..... One american had 3 Kills in Iraq...... I havent been able to find stats on the recent war, but Im sure that there were not as many targets for the airforce and navy to fire upon...

Im sure that the Brits think their tank is the best, just like us Americans think the Abrahms is the best....

I do not have any info on which tank is the better choice for armored combat, but I have seen what an Abrahms can do up close and personal... If u could provide some info to back up ur claim i would appreciate it....

The lanc could provide a good argument, I lack the knowledge. All I do know is that the Challenger II is far better than the Abrams.
