  • Commonwealth vs Union of South American Nations

    04. 02. 2012 13:24


MrDucky

How would a huge war look like between the British Commonwealth and the Union of South American Nations for the Falklands?

Okay the Commonwealth isn't really a military alliance but what if the entire Commonwealth was supporting Britain and the entire Union of South American Nations supporting Argentina in a war for the Falkland Islands. What would happened? Would the combined strength of the Union of South American Nations pummel the Commonwealth of Nations?

I was hoping we could discuss what would happen and suggest plans for stuff like re-taking the Falklands with Commonwealth forces. Sort of like the discussion going on in one of the old threads on the regional forums with Sindher and others discussing what would be militarily feasible etc. We would sort of be like Armchair generals.

2 Astute class Submarines 

1 Wave Class Royal Fleet Oiler or supply ship

 

It will be truly amazing to see the Royal Navy have carrier strike groups again.



I can't wait to see one of them in Portsmouth. I went to see the Ark Royal (I think) when she docked up here in Newcastle and she was HUUUGE. I can't even imagine what these next one's are going to be like.

JTF2 is one of the only special forces that actually gets called in by other countries...OH THATS RIGHT you wouldn't know this since you don't know anyone inside JTF2!

Go post somewhere else where you can be biased as you please.

I've proved you wrong on everything you posted by using facts now go curl up in your little ball. 

Seriously Falcon, you can actually READ his pile of text? Because I failed at doing it.

Many more nations within the commonwealth are fully capable of producing nuclear weapons - should a change in domestic policy permit or should sufficient foreign threats arise.  Canada, for one, has been very successful in exporting its domestic nuclear power technology around the world - most notably, the CANDU (short for CANada Deuterium Uranium) series of nuclear reactors.  Nuclear fission is nuclear fission, whether it be used to produce the energy of work or energy of destruction.  Hence Canada, and other commonwealth nations with home-grown nuclear power, could produce nuclear weapons overnight if they felt compelled to do so.

To that end, I have never understood why Canada, also building most of its own naval vessels (apart from British submarines), hasn't incorporated nuclear-power in its warships.  Owing to cuts and anti-war attitudes pervasive in the general public, The Royal Canadian Navy faces an almost perpetual manpower shortage.  Continued reliance on fossil fuel engines forces the incorporation of manpower-intensive fleet replenishment vessels in a fleet already strained for crew.  Nuclear power, on the other hand, would eliminate the need for such auxillary vessels and allow the Canadian Forces to more adequately field its combat fleet (i.e., they would be able to simultaneously deploy more 'warships' owing to the lack of any need to crew fleet replenishment vessels).

As per the question of the commonwealth versus a Union of South American nations, I suspect it would be just like the original Falklands - only with upgraded special effects.  In the relatively short-term, south american nations could take the nearly undefended islands, although they would completely lack the kind of power necessary to prevent the commonwealth from taking them back.  Ultimately England, as in the days of old, would have near-complete command of the sea (and this isn't even taking into consideration their having the added benefit of the 'rest' of the commonwealth navies).

I can one up you, I know about 5 that are in JTF2 as well as three former JTF2. I also know 3 former CSOR.

If you knew JTF2 they aren't a "counter-terrorism" unit. They're a elite special forces unit but you don't have you facts right.

I proved you wrong a few times already now go away your a pest. 

 

my mistake ..went to bass fishing in bosnia Canadians units.I heard that during this period was record on capture.(

Joint Task Force Two (JTF 2)

Welcome to Joint Task Force Two

Joint Task Force Two (JTF 2) is the Canadian Forces (CF) Special Operations Forces (SOF) unit responsible for a broad range of missions, which could include counter-terrorism operations and armed assistance to other government departments. This mandate was inherited from the Special Emergency Response Team of the RCMP, who maintained this responsibility from 1986 until 1993, at which time the federal government transferred the role to the CF.

Mission

JTF 2 is responsible for providing to Canada a force capable of rendering armed assistance in the resolution of an issue or a potential issue that affects national security. While JTF 2’s primary role is counter-terrorism, its personnel can be employed in any type of military operations, which include, but are not limited to, surveillance, security advice and close personal protection.)
