Mirror: Exclusive: UK war fears as British Army boasts fewer tanks than neutral Switzerland
With only 217 armoured tanks, the UK sits in 57th place for vehicle numbers - ranking worryingly behind peace-loving Switzerland who haven't fought in a war in 200 years
The British Army now has fewer tanks than the peace-loving Swiss. We have 213 tanks while neutral Switzerland, which has not fought in a war for 200 years, boasts 380. Military experts warn our fleet is not enough – yet new Challenger 3 tanks are not due to enter service until 2027 or be fully operational until 2030.
Armoured vehicles have proved vital in modern conflicts such as the war in Ukraine, despite high-tech advances in military weapons. Colonel Richard Kemp, a retired British Army officer, urged: “Tanks remain critically important. We must significantly increase our numbers.”

Switzerland isn't in nato
Doh, catch up already, so far the left has
-- sabotaged our nations and your nations energy supply
-- disrupted our supply chains
-- significantly reduced ammonium nitrate / fertilizer production and shut down the most efficient farms "to save the planet"... right.. under the climate program they are killing 500mn+ people, it's basic math. They just tell you it's for climate
-- destroyed our security, culture, global standing, lied about our history, divided us
Look they are not doing this for fun. This is a takeover.
Time to wake up guys, there is no coming back from this for them.
Switzerland is one thing entirely; well done. The rest of the EU/NATO are mostly just a bunch of Utopian leftist socialists cowards who are riding on the coat tails of the US as elegant beggars with accents, who couldn't afford their "free education" and "Free healthcare" or any of the other buttshit they like to boast about. If they didnt have rich daddy USA paying for nearly all of their defense budgets - what was once the more expensive expenditures in running a country, then their economic models would be failing miserably. Speaking of economic models, Europe is "rebuilt" now decades later, so the absurd trade arrangements between the EU and US along with all the other free shit they leech off us including many forms of aid, free medical research at our expense, etc needs to stop as well. The most ideal arrangement for the EU was the NATO alliance, and nearly all party members cant even make their 2% GDP contribution the past few decades. Current party members need to back pay for the past 20 years and sign a binding pledge that they will do it every year in the future or they need to be GONE. The US is a $32 trillion in debt with another $100+ trillion in unfunded liabilities so no more calling daddy USA and asking for the credit card every time the retarded russian bear shits in their yard.
