America = Best equipped Air Force
Germany = Best equipped Army
Sweden = Best equipped Navy
Britain = Best trained everything, particularly specops
China = So much larger than everyone else, it’s completely irrelevant how good their aggressors are.

Get fucked.

Australia has bailed America out of a pickle on many occasions.

American infantry are undisiplined, clumsy and too gung ho.

American has the numbers, but generally you are from form being proficient.

Americans troops = Cannon Fodder.

One question....


When were we bailed out by the Aussies?

All I can think of is the Southwest Pacific in World War 2.

Not to mention, American troops have been trained by Australians in special tactics and environmental survival warfare.

Most likely America. I don’t want to hear this bullshit about the Aussies haha. They’d get crushed in any modern warfare and you know it.

America relies way too much on technology.

Australia has the best trained troops.

I post a excerpt .

Australian Army is the greatest and most aggressive in the world, our SASR special forces has surpassed the British and throughout our short history our courage, AGGRESSION and raw ability have prevailed through all our battles. You just ask any US soldier that has been on op with an Aussie and they will tell you how it really is. The Australian Army gets the job done, no nonsense, not relying on technology. Our soldiers grew up outside, in the bush, we were born soldiers and if there was ever a time someone tried to invade our land, it wouldn’t just be our military at hand it would be our grandparents, mothers, fathers and children all stepping up to protect our freedom. It’s a solid block that our country has been developed on, I respect the other army’s especially the British, though based on “even” personnel numbers, our quality of soldier reigns above the rest. After all we have more to live for (beaches, women, and cold beer).

I tend to agree that Australia have a good armed force and they are very adapt fighting men and there version of the SAS are good but on saying that we do live in the 21st century and the Australians are laking in the vital technology to fight a modern war for example if America attacked Australia in WW2 then the Australians might have won just on shear guts of there fighting force but if they were to attack them now well i dont think the Australians would stand much of a chance even though the American soldier is less adapt than the Australian soldier the technology would overwhelm the Australians.

There is something else to add to this who would Britain stand by and fight for that would be the telling thing as both countries are reliant on the Brits in some way because as you all well know the British can be a very stubborn army too they may loose battles but they know how to win a war and there is no getting away from that, they have the technology and the skill to fight a modern war.

Again we should look at the overall picture Sweden for instance has a very modern navy Germany have very good tanks France has good trained soldiers Russian,China,Turkey has overwhelming numbers of men.

So i will change the question what makes a good armed force.

Training, dedication and tactics make the best armed forces.

Relying on technology is all good and all, but what happens to the fleet when the technology fails?
