Baku/24.03.21/Turan: British Minister of the Armed Forces James Happy spoke about the army's plans to acquire new weapons. The reason was the analysis of the battles of the Turkish army in Syria and the Azerbaijan Army in Karabakh.
It is reported by the British breakingdefense.com, covering military topics.
The Minister of the Armed Forces said they are noting a change in the nature of fighting on land at close range. Wars develop in the direction of powerful explosions in the depths of the front.
Accordingly, the purchase of nuclear weapons, warships and 6th generation combat aircraft is envisaged for the needs of the British army.
One of the reasons for limiting the number of F-35 combat aircraft is cooperation between the UK, France, Germany and Spain. “We have invested heavily in our army's air combat system. There is ongoing discussion about what the exact shape of the rapid reaction air force will look like in the future,” said Minister Happy. —0-
