Is there not a rich vein of irony here, in discussing how a hypothetical attack on a well equipped and technology savvy agressor would work with all of our flash bang gizmos, when in the background the white noise of today's media is incessantly reporting how well trained, but ill-equipped and poorly focused British Forces are taking a regular arse kicking from Habib and the boys with their deadly RPG, AK47, and re-engineered 155mm IED's? Nowhere near enough CAS, no Military Objective (ie. retake the Falklands), and dwindling moral support. At least with Corporate we knew what the job was and went and did it.
