United States v.s. United Kingdom: Who would win in a war?

Mercury · 10-12-2009, 05:00 PM

The ultimate showdown!!!

The sizeable U.S.A. takes on the cunning England for round two of WAR OF THE SUPERPOWERS!!! The Americans kicked the Brits off their home turf before, but this time the battle begins in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and spreads outwards!!! Whose shores will be sieged first? Whose capital will fall to ruins? Will it be the clean cut Washington D.C.? Will it be the decorative London? Some say Britians Marine corp. are the best trained in the world, but can they defend against the United States massive firepower?!?!?! Only one country can remain to dominate the civilized world. WHO WILL IT BE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

LET'S GET IT ON!!!!!!

Gun politics in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"...These two situations create what is believed to be some of the strictest gun legislation in the world.[1][2]"

edit- I don't think nuclear weapons even come in to play here. the US would never nuke the UK and vice versa. you gotta think how many Americans still have family in the UK.

that being said the whole situation is of course completely hypothetical and extremely unlikely.

Overall US without a doubt. The UK's government over the last 12 years has practically abolished the armed forces, in favour of putting speed cameras alongside roads to save flowers and bunny rabbits.

Parts of the army recently had to cease training due to a lack of funding. Go figure.

That said, point for point, UK pilots would pwn US ones, and the UKSF would pwn the USSF.

sidenote: We don't even have bombers in the Airforce, all US would have to do is send one of it's nuclear bombers based in England to do a 15 minute sortie, and the war would be over

might as well start flying the stars and stripes now

Flamingnun · 10-12-2009, 05:23 PM

We've been doing that since like 2001.

But hey, don't forget without the UK, you'd either be speaking French, or Spanish by now. Count yourself lucky

lol. you mean MI5? and it's an intelligence agency, not secret service.

**Mafoo** · 10-12-2009, 05:29 PM
