UK warships to have less firepower than 19th century equivalents

>UK
>relevant

>Royal Navy warships will be less capable of fighting enemy vessels than they were in the 19th century as Britain’s Harpoon anti-ship missile will be withdrawn in two years – with no replacement in sight.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

What shit media thing is this?
Why would we retire a missile from the 90s?
Are you retarded OP?
The fucking penguin is still used for Christ sake

>Nigel is upset he doesnt r-rule the waves

We have nukes though

Not after Scotland leaves

They could buy exocets. They are already familiar with them.

>scotland leaving
>ever

Once the EU army arrives the UK will just be a minor power anyway.

Don't worry, we'll protect you. As long as you pay your 2%.

I mean, the UK has 64 million people and the EU without the UK will have 443 million people.

The article is wrong though. Whilst there's no current planned replacement Harpoon, Royal Navy still has anti-ship missiles.

Both LLM and CAMM are more than capable of doing their jobs.

This. If you are nuclearly weaponized and have a decent economy then that is plenty sufficient enough to compete.

>sufficient enough

fug was editing my post and fucked up

Shhhh lad let them have their moment

Is this some Sun Tzu shit going down?

ALL THIS DENIALISM

Good thing it won't.

>ramps

We're not going anywhere.

For now.

Is the register more reliable than the mail?
