Little harsh there, chopa, but I see where you're coming from. My view would be that they are more used to relying on technology and a heavy support tail simply because that's what they have. They are also incredibly rule-bound which can constrain initiative at the tactical level. However, this is balanced by the fact that their organisation as a whole is quicker to respond to changes than the MoD, despite the former's greater size.

For all that, their best is as good as (if not better, due to training resources) our best any day of the week.
