The Britain's army is not ready for a high -intensity conflict - the Defense Committee

The British army was checked in three areas, and each of them revealed problems. In addition to the poor training of the British army, they also found troubles in the technical condition of the army. The UK army is not ready for great intensity fights, will not promptly deploy forces and has problems with technical support. This conclusion was reached by the UK Defense Committee.

The report reports that British troops have poor training, and the stream of personnel in the ranks of the country's armed forces is very large - servicemen are released faster than they find a replacement, and the offer for them has no favorable conditions. It is noted that the military is constantly overloaded, and this has adversely affected the maintenance, as well as delayed the development of combat.

Britain should reduce the operational burden on the Armed Forces of the British Defense Committee to check the Armed Forces in three directions: analysts have come to the conclusion that in all three destinations, the British Army may have problems if reforms were not implemented in time. The report also states that in addition to the lack of high level of training of the British army, there is also a problem with the technical condition of the army.

As an example, the condition of the aircraft carrier of the royal fleet "HMS Queen Elizabeth". He has not participated in NATO's greatest exercises since the Cold War because of a screw problem. The vessel's malfunction was found after 1. 5 after another British ship "HMS Prince of Wales" failed near White Island due to a similar malfunction. Because of this, he also did not participate in NATO exercises, and it took 9 months for its repair.
