It's hard for Britain to have good military, when you gave up your colonies that gave you the power and resources in world war 2 and world war 1, and manpower, also 1988 is still post world war 2 time, when you had more manpower income, because you overally had more children, so yeah it's no wonder.

NATO doesn't need to broadcast & boast to the World coz simply the World knows it's Military Might and no Country or Countries come close. The main thing is our Enemies know our strength and be rest assured they're watching.
I recall a Ukrainian commander observing that the US's military training wasn't helpful because their expertise over the last couple decades has been on fighting insurgencies rather than fighting a large scale battle on open terrain. He was exactly right. It's nice to see NATO making an effort to shore up these inadequacies.
It's a very good reason for training like this. Protocols are worked out in order to form cohesion. Although Battlegroups would likely be deployed to different areas based on language to avoid problems on the ground. Working as one on a larger scale

Why was the USA so successful during the Cold War? It implemented the Marshall Plan to economically strengthen its partners in Europe. The USA was the largest economy and opened its market to the products of its allies. The USA offered its allies a security umbrella with nuclear deterrence through NATO. As a result, America managed to push back the influence of the Soviet Union on Europe and ultimately win the Cold War. The alliance between Western Europe and the USA is proving difficult today. For example, Germany follows a mercantilist economic model and is therefore dependent on cheap energy and large export markets. Russia and China can provide both of these for Western Europe like no other country. The USA, on the other hand, is becoming increasingly less important as an economic partner. And since the collapse of the Soviet Union, there is no serious military threat from Russia to Western Europe. Despite this, tens of thousands of American soldiers are still stationed in hundreds of US military bases and US nuclear weapons on German soil. If you look at the situation objectively from the US perspective, America is protecting Europe from the countries with which it has close trade relations. Europe's core interest, however, is to further expand its economic relations with the USA's biggest competitors. It is clear that the interests of Europe and the USA are no longer compatible and this partnership will soon end.
We’ve seen how many Russian tanks are destroyed in one day. If the UK lost 10 tanks a day how long would it take before we lost them all, say 3 wks if we had 200
Military specifications for new tanks and battleships are 1 to 50 drones. How wrong can they be. Raise the specifications to 1,000 to 50,000. And kindly talk to I.S. or S.A. or P.L. They'll tell you how wrong NATO is.

I agree. We should be training all of our troops in the middle of actual combat from day one. We won't even do any preliminary fitness training first because that is just unrealistic training that you would never find in war... And also we will not train anyone in signals, or even in operation of machinery if there is not a war going on around them because that wouldn't be truly realistic, right? We will not let them fire a weapon in peace times because that is not realistic, right? That is the best way to do it right? Thanks so much for your great input. I work for the MOD, would you like a job? We need guys with the smarts like you have displayed here.
There is no war between NATO and Russia because Ukraine is not a member of NATO. Ukraine cannot become a member while the war is ongoing. Even if the war ends, the approval of 32 Nato members is required for membership.
