Agree, the Rheinmetal part certainly is, as for Lossie it's about time the jerries pulled their finger out and took their turn patrolling the North sea for NATO and not just leave it to other Nation's, funny thing is in every day life apart from euro travel it does not feel as if we left anything to me.

We just had a big joint exercise on up here, mostly naval, but air support as well. Shelling at Cape Wrath (can hear it from here). Quite a few helicopters going over, with personnel in the open doors, feet hanging over the edge (probably thinking "get some, get some") mixed fleet vessels in the Pentland firth, Ours, Dutch, Danish, even murcan ones.

Quite a few fighters stooging over too. Euro fighters mostly. Low too.

Interesting reading, how our stocks of munitions have been reduced by giving so.much to the Ukraine... And how they are now trying to restock.

Thanks for the heads up, I just watched Kurt Steiner (Michael Caine) try to kidnap Churchill. A very tasty Jenny Agutter to dribble over. Great film.
