WHY IS MY COUNTRY LIKE THIS?? WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE A MARITIME EMPIRE FUCKS SAKE
"Prince of Wales?" More like, "Prince of Fails."
shouldn't have taken the grog away
The biscuits will be measured and the bum will be in the bum.
>>65212756>brand new ship has teething problemsOh no, the tea pot is falling!
>>65212757More like Cringe of Wales
Great Britain? More like Great Shittin'!lmao, got 'em!
>>65212756Did the propeller axles break in two again at high RPM ? This ship is value engineered to the max. When Bongladesh goes bankrupt in about 18-24 months it will be mothballed then sold to Japan and renamed "Whitsu Piggu". BTW HMS Dargon Dildo has underdimensioned engine heat exchangers, so when they ingest 28 C warm mediterranian surface water, they cant deliver enough cooling capability. Value engineering! Lets assume our ship only ingests 8 C warm north atlantic water and dimension our cooling system accordingly so we can save £5 in materials!
>>65212787Just 2 more bongs my good chap.
>>65212756It's a relatively new ship from a new ship design. Lots of things will breakdown and get fixed or modified. Having said that, naming it after a ship ignomiously sunk by the Japs is not a good omen.
>>65212787>>65212818one more fortnight
Oh yeah? Well atleast the plumbing works ( think)
>>65212876in even WW2 (and prob WW1) on any USN ship it was given that of course there was a formal, mandatory constant hygiene program.In Royal Navy it was at best an afterthought, and joke was to always make sure you anchor upwind of a RN ship, and for god's sake get out of any "invites".
>>65212756Why can OP post image but can’t post link?https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/hms-prince-wales-norway-navy-b2990926.html3rd paragraph down>“A minor technical issue” was identified on the Royal Navy’s most powerful vessel during its latest stop in Stavanger, a port city in south-western Norway, the MoD said.The aircraft carrier is expected to sail in the coming days, the ministry added.
>>65212891Presumably because it doesn't fit OPs agenda in making this thread.
>>65212897Is the agenda to divert attention away from another navy having minor technical issues?
So what losses did Russia suffer this time? You aren’t fooling anyone with your act, OP.
>>65212756>>65212757>>65212799>samefagging You aren’t good at this
>>65213074I'm just lightly poking fun at bongs you dumb phoneposting faggot
>>65212756There is no future outside the EU. It's that simple. Without the EU Britain's decline began in earnest and all that's left now is for Farrage or Reform or whatever other oligarch to take control and fleece them into oblivion and de facto feudal system like Russia.
>>65212791>brand new shipIt's been 7 years....
>>65213149Theres no future for any "democratic" country
>>65212756They're like British cars, you need two of them because one will always be in the shop.
>https://ukdefencejournal.org.uk/british-aircraft-carrier-to-set-sail-from-norway/Whatever it was it's already fixed. You have to remember the Telegraph has gone all in on American style political media warfare and because it's a labour government in they'll run these strident headlines to make the government look incompetent.Also Prince of Wales has a 4 month turnaround time, compared to the US CVNs turnaround time of 1-2 years.>>65213151And? There's so much new technology involved in it and despite commission in 2019 it's only really started operation cruises in the last two years. It's a large ship with consequently many issues, for example USS Nimitz was commissioned in 1972 and was on Restricted Availability till mid 1977 shaking out issues.
>>65213163>>65213074>>65213077>Dirlewanger false flagging

When this ship was launched my dad said "Shouldn't have called it Prince of Wales, cursed name" he's a ship autist to the max so I believe it.
>>65213235>make one (1) shitty pun about the HMS Prince of Wales>reeee you're samefagging! zigger!I'm gonna assume you're false flagging, but whether that is the case or not you are a repulsive, dysgenic little nigger
>>65212756>Prince of Walesimagine calling your ship the "pow"
>>65213327Except for everyone can see your shitty “jokes” were an attempt to bump and get traction on your thread. First one >>65212757 you posted shortly after the post timer, then the second one >>65212757 around 20mins later when nobody replied. It could not be more clear what type of narrative this thread was created to push.
>>65212756>generic headline with no info>few random wiki facts below headline>stock picture>no info>no sourceFuck OP and fuck Clara. Both useless cunts.
>>65212756>Britain builds two carriers>Except both are always being repaired for issues solved since the first world war>Even when they do get a solid week of not-being-broken they have no escort, because Britain hasn't built an escort ship for 30 years and they're always broken down>Even when the escorts AREN'T broken, they have no missiles because budget cutsHOW? HOW DO YOU GET THIS INCOMPETENT?
>>65214580Now post the admiral kuznetsov carrier
>>65214580nah, brits still have full Malta-class carrier plans, and that was based on whole WW2 experienceThye know how to build carriers t
>>65214698Kuznetsov is a soviet era piece of shit made by a nation who was a failed naval power for over 100 years.The British navy has no excuse.
>>65214698"Our navy isn't as bad as Russia's" is not the flex you think it is. "Our hygiene is not as bad as India's!""Our black people are not as violent as Hati's!""We have fewer child-raping Muslims than Afghanistan!"
>>65213193I think people underestimate what an incredibly complex machine any aircraft carrier or submarine is. The Bongs also aren't serial producing tons of the same model, so all their type-related struggles are only spread across two ships, and there's less opportunities for later hulls to be updated to fix smaller issues with the class.
>>65212756Why are you asking questions you already know the answer to? The military simply hasn't been a priority for most European countries since 1991 and the UK in particular had adopted an anti-submarine warfare role as part of its niche within NATO during the Cold War so it stopped giving a shit about developing further large-scale aircraft carriers for literally half a century. If Britain was willing to pay substantially more money for the navy for *decades*, because experience and learning take time, then yeah it would be back up to a higher standard.
>>65214827Protip, if 25% of your population is on disabilities payments and the government is more interested in giving unlimited free money to foreigners in hotels than investigating massive nation-wide rape gang scandals, you can't afford a navy even if you wanted one.
>>65214827Because this thread is a thinly veiled attempt to bitch about the UK in general.
>>65214877Good, Bongs are shit
Stop bumping your own thread to keep it alive.
>>65214845Oh, look sopme completely coincidental offtopic agitprop. But remember, this isn't a Russian thread, there's no Russians around and no Russians have ever had aninterest in spreading anti-bong propaganda.Just completely organic /pol/shit out of nowhere.
>>65215491Yeah, they're so horrible and russophobic!
The fact that Brits have no self awareness and just blame Russian agitprop for people reporting actual facts makes them deserve their nanny state bullshit.
>>65215943>Actual facts>>65212891
>>65215943If only they weren't such russophobic nazis they'd have more self awareness!
>>65215912>(people talking about Britain)>"Clearly this is about Russia!"What? Can't you read?
>>65214455Holy butthurt Nigel. Take your meds.
>machine needs maintenance More news at 11
>>65216878Yeah, we're talking about how russophobic the brits are, and how they support the nazi cokehead Zolonsku and NATO who take Good American tax dollars to live lives of luxury with their warm water ports! Try to keep up
>>65216901No one's engaging with your obvious derailing attempts, try to stay on thread topic
This thread is now about saying nice things about the RN.(Bongs you aren't making this easy, fund your fucking military.)Running At-Sea Deterrence continiously without missing a day since the 60s is really fucking impressive for a nation of their size and they don't anywhere near enough credit for it.
>>65216914>fund your fucking militaryIt's hard to fund your military when all your funds are going towards hotels
>british fuckup>thread starts>issue turns out to be a non-issue>thread exists for 2 weeks as schizos turn it into a mosh pitRepeat ad infinitum
>>65216949Maybe the British shouldn't fuck up then.
>>65216972Or you can get a life.
>>65216984Lol Nigel is mad. I'm sorry that people keep noticing the mistakes of Xir's Royal Diverse Navy
65214845>hotels65216932>hotelsyeah I'm sure this is a thread about weapons and not a thread made just for kvetching about whatever the third world is upset about today
i think Anglo butthurt denial/seethe threads about the Absolute State of the royal "navy" are my absolute favourites on this baord
Russian shills frequently rely on highly cherry picked "True" information that lacks context and is used to advance a false narrative. Of course the dedovschina makes them permanently butthurt.
>>65217232If Britain has the ship readiness/repair level of a second-world nation plagued with corruption currently at war, then they need to do better>inb4 "ruzzian shill!!!!11!"I'm not saying Russia's military is good, in fact I'm saying the opposite, that it's a very low bar.
>>65215912>WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING TO OUR NAVY!>Explains why>S-SHUT THE FUCK UP RUSSIAN BOT, B-BRITANIA RULES THE WAVES!
>>65217488That's unfortunately how /k/ works nowadays. They're hearing russian shills in the walls
>>65212756>WHY IS MY COUNTRY LIKE THIS??Because your nation doesn't want to defend itself, it's government deliberately wants you weak and your population replaced by third worlders.And they think it's funny.
>>65217512And they're winning, too.
>>65212756Found the problem...
/pol/shit is not normally allowed, but if you thinly disguise it as a "critique of british equipment", you can post all sorts of /pol/ and /int/ shit that isn't even remotely on topic and snigger while you do it, knowing your entire thread is just about trolling bongs and the mods will let you get away with it. Meanwhile if you dare to suggest that maybe a piece of American gear isn't as good as advertised you can have a 3 day ban.
Oh look, another thread full of retards who think they have some kind of big secret all figured out. You schizo faggots are so insufferable. Like everything on this mongolian basket weaving forum is really some kind of government plot from somewhere because your retarded ass matters so much. I've been browsing /k/ since it was genuinely obscure and everyone on here talked about "going innawoods" and skinwalkers and fuck that was so cozy. Arrogant schizo retards ruin all the fun.>but muh pol shitPeople have talked about pol shit on here for decades. Fuck off if it makes you butthurt. It's not a psyop and never was.
>>65212756I ask the opposite question every time Italy manages to have a functional navy.
>>65218499Someone's mad he's been found out.
What's up with British engineering?
>>65212756>25 knots per hourHas to be bait.
>>65218533>I've never really asked myself the question.
>>65218646British newspapers thought '5 inch gun' on a warship meant the gun was 5 inches long.
>>65215943Just ask them to post their guns
>>65214698Saying you're not as incompetent as the Russian navy is like saying you have more ships than the Swiss navy.
>>65218646They weren't talking about speed, anon
Always have an heir and a spare.
To the British, incompetence is a high art form
>>65218473Seethe.
>>65215943>>65218745If you are going to samefag pidor, at least try to be subtle.
>>65219100Uh... so I guess this is the part where I ask you to post your guns
used to, your navy has more admirals than boats lol
>3 days of samefaggingNigel level grim
>>65213193>>65213235What was the issue?
>>65212756The empire has been gone since the 1940’s Lee. All you have now is shit weather, Reform nostalgia and footpaths splattered in dogshit. Enjoy.
>>65219941>The empire has been goneNow it's called the Commonwealth, otherwise known as countries with drinkable tap water. But speaking of empires being gone, ask the samefag /pol/ spammer how his 3 day special military operation against his poor neighbour is doing.
>>65220165>otherwise known as countries with drinkable tap waterYou can tell this is next level cope. Obviously there are tons of 1st world countries outside of the last places with Yookay interference
>>65220187Got to love the cope in this post. The USA may be the only "Nanny state" that will arrest citizens for posting pictures of their town's abysmal brown drinking water.
>>65220282LMFAOYeah, the UK/Canada/Australia never ever arrest people for posts critical of the government. Get real. What are you even doing on this website, your dear leader and glorious OFCOM declared it as criminal for not following Yookay censorship and tracking.
>HMS Prince of Wales is currently conducting a port visit to Stavanger.>We expect her to set sail in the coming days."It's small teething troubles at best, but as usual the usual spammer is talking to himself on the thread he made with an out if context headline.
>>65219438This is your thread and your own samefagging wtard.Project much.>>65218499It's one seething austist relax
>>65220297>YookayYou have too many tells btw.
>>65220309Yeah, tells of being against Great Leader Starmer.
>>65220309Schizos have to have a calling card, anonymous image board etc.
>>65220324Yookay is slang, how can it be a calling card? A calling card is unique
>>65220335>30 uses in /k/ archives in 15 yearsYeah sure, tourist.
>>65220344It's relatively new slang, dumbass
>>65220353>NewGo back to int or R9K, or whatever shithole you crawled out from newfag
>>65220357Well damn, I didn't know it was that old. I admit I was in the wrong there
>>65219100Your country is currently celebrating pride month, there are countless insults that you could use against Russians why use the one where you have no room to talk?
>>65220297>OFCOM in my walls copeSo it’s this one schizo lolcow
>>65220371>indistinct glavset noises>>>/pol/Seems a melty is incoming. It isn’t even making sense in these latest posts.
>>65220373What the fuck are you talking about?
>>65220379You're a mongoloid
>>65220380The last thread he posted ofcom in was also a brit seethe looking at the archive anyway.We're good at recognising regulars and those that use new language, pattern recognition is a vital tool.
>>65220397>says some complaint/comment/critique >"omg this is just like poopenfarten, the schizo who's waging war on bugs. I'm an expert on writing styles">"uh I'm not this poopenfarten guy">"that must mean you're poopenfarten!"Why is every /k/ thread like this?
>>65220431Because there is mostly one very obvious schizo making 99% of the bad faith anti-UK posts in this board. Any post saying “OFCOM” is going to be him. Everyone just sees this and knows it’s one lolcow because the consistencies in language used, time of day posting, samefagging, etc.
>>65220431Why are you posting your OC
>>65220431Sorry that everyone is onto you, pidor.
It’s important to call out these ritual posters so that lurkers understand that schizo posts (e.g. OFCOM drivel) are just one person screaming into the void and not any type of trend that should be followed.
>>65220514>>65220553This is actually insane. Gee, I wonder why people on 4CHAN are against OFCOM. Total mystery, completely unrelated to past actions
>>65220588It has even less archive mentions on /k/ than yookay does he's right to call you out, take your politics back to >>>/int/ , >>>/r9k/ , >>>/pol/
>>65220651I thought it was mentioned constantly from some poopenfarten. Make up your mind
Waiting for warriortard to fall back to his tried and true “guys the UK has gun control so Americans should totally abandon their allies and let Putin have whatever he wants”
>>65220665nta, you have to go back
>>65220679I'm third position, UK is bad because it's oppressive, but idgaf about Russia, positively or negatively
At this stage an UK default is pretty much unavoidable. If the POW doesnt get sold to some thirdies its going to end up scrapped within 10 years.
>>65220707>starts pretending to be a new person replying to the thread lol
>>65220514>>65220553If you guys are pro-OFCOM, why are you on this illegal website?
>>65212756less GDP than the state of Mississippi btw
>>65220730Random chunks of government are not weapons.
>>65220788Doesn't matter to them, 4chan needs to pay a bajillion dollars for not censoring and adding ID verification, under the orders of Herr Starmer
>>65220807And that is not weapons, so I do not know why you are having this conversation on /k/.
>>65220811Nor is making rants about some thread schizo, or the geopolitical threads. Go after them if you actually care about board topic.
>>65220814Someone else shitting up the board does not grant you permission to as well. Perhaps both of you should stop.
>>65220817Not weapons :)
>>65220431Its probably some researchers who were paid to study "harmful extremist" websites, and figured out that accusing everyone of being the same person was the quickest way to shut down threads. It is known that OFCOM cares enough about 4chan threads to demand the ability to censor them. The UK government also pays contractors such as the Zinc Network or CREST to study how to influence American web boards. They are probably going to accuse this of being a samefag post now in the same vein.
>>65220828That makes a lot of sense. I've suspected something similar.>It is known that OFCOM cares enough about 4chan threads to demand the ability to censor them.Yeah, that's why the "only this one schizo talks about OFCOM" line is ridiculous. I lived in America all my life and I know about OFCOM now. Even the 4chan anniversary art makes reference to it (UK cape)
>>65215912Im not a Russian but Britain is clearly a shithole that prioritizes housing foreign rapists and filling its institutions with 5th columnists that actively hate the very institutions they join over having a functioning nation and military.However, you guys are not as big of a shithole as Russia...yet
>>65220864TRVTHNUKE
>>65220379I noticed you didn't respond for the request to post guns...
>>65220828It's more likely 3rd world shill farms going out of their way to be toxic and torpedo threads they don't like. Or actual schizophrenics.
>>65220828>>65221185Considering shill farms imply payment and a customer, these two positions aren't mutually exclusive
>>65213193I know the ships are more complex now, but 7 years is still longer than all of WW2. It shouldn't take that long to sort out teething issues.
Good job on this thread mods, look at all this weapons discussion happening.
>>65221492>People explain why it keeps happening>Metric shitload of retards accuse everyone making sensible arguments of being russian bots Jej
>>65221535This motherfucker is gloating about getting away with it, in the same way Russians do. Lying to your face with a big shit eating grin as he does it, because he knows we know he's lying. Pure vranyo, the Russian's favorite sport. And apparently the jannies are in on it or absolute fucking retards.
>>65220531He's been astroturfing it for years. Probably mad that he is the poopdickschizo.
>>65221541Anon, why do you think that the british navy is in shambles? Without blaming imaginary russians for somehow stealing all the budget.
>>65221549>Brief stop, less than a day to fix a minor issue that doesn't impact operations>THE ROYAL NAVY IS IN SHAMBLESAmericans have a carrier that you can't shit in half the toilets and randomly catches fire.
>>65221554>Minor issue>For their carrier with no escorts>For which no escorts are actually planned>And the few which are planned won't have missilesJej
>>65221558>no escortsI'm sure you'll find a cope saying it doesn't count or just spin more lies though.
>>65221566Protip, a carrier needs more than a single DD to protect it!
>>65221568Type 23s and type 45s are very capable, and there's more than enough of them to protect a carrier if needed. Astutes would be in the outer ring of defenses, like when the Belgrano was sunk.Your lies are very pathetic.
>>65218382Out of curiosity, why does the ship use a German motto?
>>65221574>Type 23s and type 45s are very capableThey're objectively dogshit to the Burkes, which are themselves getting outdated.
>>65221581Shifting from pretending to be Argentinian when I didn't take the bait to pretending to be American and trying some divide and conquer tactics?

>>65221588>>65221566
>>65221592>I will escort my carriers with the destroyers that aren't functional and don't have missiles!Lol, lmao even???
>>65221579it probably has to do with the fact that the British royal house are Germans from Hanover and elsewhere being married in because God forbid you'd marry someone below a prince/princess or even worse a c*tholic.
>>65221601>don't have missiles
>>65221714>Fitted for, but not withThat's the issue, retard.
>>65221225>I know the ships are more complex now, but 7 years is still longer than all of WW2. It shouldn't take that long to sort out teething issues.nta but fwiw "7 years" is only a proxy measure right? You sort out teething issues with actual serious operation time, which obviously is somewhat related to years since leaving construction but also depends on how hard and seriously it's being pushed during those years, how much budget cuts screw with that or red tape or risk aversion or whatever other horse shit. And of course how much adversity it must get through. WW2's years went a lot harder then ours have been the last few decades.
