NZ should reinvigorate ANZUS and send a battalion plus a ship over to Aus for regular training and vice verca. It would be great for our defence forces to be fully integrated.
Great to see that our reserves are able to partake in such welcoming and awesome events despite them being mothers, fathers, and work seperate jobs. Big respect to them putting in the work on the civilian side and also the combat side of things! One thing I cannot help but notice is that the NZ Reserve team are using the MARS-L and also the EF88 by the looks of it, are we going to receive any bigger caliber firearms for our combat units maybe something new for our NZSAS? Standard issued MARS-L is good don't get me wrong but what are the future plans for firearms?
I think the Australians would prefer their superior pay and conditions, housing that is from at least this century. A department of veteran affairs - which although not perfect, is far far far better funded and staffed to look after vets. On top of all of this, greater access to better training resources and more frequent live firing activities. The Kiwis can keep their rifle.......which they'll probably still be using long after the ADF replaces the current version of the Styer - which is in the pipeline. I talk from experience of serving in both armies. I know first hand which is better militarily.
@@damolux3388 Things are more lucrative in Australia in so many ways I agree. But if you had the choice of weapon would you take the Styer or the LMT MARS-L
Yeah, I am pretty sure we use the EF88 and the MARS-L but the MARS-L is much more modernised I think to my best of knowledge. The Australian Army use a vast variety of weapons but the ef88 is just one of them that the forces can use
MARS-L is a far superior weapon to any currently fielded bullpup. EF88 is one of the very best bullpups fielded, but there are a lot of unsolved issues with bullpups and AUGs in particular. The Australians have perfectly fine optics and lasers and such, though.
Reminding me of my FCA days in Ireland..a notable member of our Defence forces now resident in NZ for a number of years with the NZ Defence forces now retired.
Yeah, the NZDF has EOD and Chemical Hazards units that station in Airforce bases and Army bases across New Zealand. New Zealand's EOD team is a unit I have not have heard of in a while though, I know that we had some in Afghanistan I think but I am not sure
@Spud500 Yeah, if you have a look on NZDF Careers and go into Army and go find the EOD unit, I think it would tell you what unit they're connected to. The NZSAS has 5 standing units out of 10 I think that are still in service, one of which atleast has to be something around explosives and explosive technicians
@Spud500 oh? The EOD is a NZDF Unit branched to Airforce, Navy and Army trained to deal with Explosives, Chemical hazards, and radioactive weapons, so the answer is yes.. The NZDF has a big EOD unit spread out
Considering any military will *ensure* you are vaccinated for a bunch of things, being anti-vax means you’ll be disqualified from applying. Plus, they won’t want a cooker like you 😂
Few years back possibly mid Covid pandemic? If that is the case then yeah, back in when New Zealand was in lock down you would have needed to be vaxed. But now in 2024 or when the next intake happens I do not think you would need to be vaxed
this is just some Maori Tauwharenikau Excercise, on the streets , um , Auckland, so many Maori ...doing crime, arrested, in Gangs..well you guys full know all of that. so,,,get them out of their stuff, (you know about all of that) and into your , Energies....!!
Miss the old days of training in New Zealand ,Australia,Malaya and Singapore.To those of today and my Brothers from the past.Onward.
Really great to see you contributing in Reserves God Bless You All

Where are you going to find a Bn in the NZ Army???. Both are Coy (+) and Coy (-) in strength

Even the NZ reserves are using the MARS-L I wonder if the Australians are jealous? Great video by the way and the Reservists rock.
Uhmm Australia has an airforce and F-35’s 👍 I wonder if the New Zealanders are jealous ?
@@PaulP580 Yes we are amd we miss them in our souls.

The Australian also are using the ef88 i dont think they are jealous. They have one of the best home made assault rifes in the world now.

I think the Army has some sort of capability likely EOD or something else.
Yeah, the NZDF has EOD and Chemical Hazards units that station in Airforce bases and Army bases across New Zealand. New Zealand's EOD team is a unit I have not have heard of in a while though, I know that we had some in Afghanistan I think but I am not sure
@@rocket870 i think its E squadron SAS unless its under RNZE

Aussies have all the gear no idea lol ANZAC love bros
We are all part of the same team. Slagging off at each other is a waste of time, a distraction, and is what the enemy wants of us
Are you still rejecting non Vax? I applied and got rejected for that reason few Yeats back

Why change the name Territorials to the Reserve ? Foolish
Better reflected their role. They have had a major re org and integrate alot more into their respective regular units.
