  • The Commando Raiding Craft (CRC), a vessel that can go further, is more manoeuvrable and has more power, has been issued to the Royal Marines and is already seeing operational service.
    The multi-role CRC replaces the troop-carrying and fire support variants of the Offshore Raiding Craft (ORC).
    With flanking fire support no longer a priority and more focus on discreet entry into a combat environment, the CRC can be easily reconfigured to store smaller inflatable raiding craft which can be used to venture deeper behind enemy lines and deliver lethal strike teams ashore.

So does Autralia, Canada, Poland Italy France have naval fleets? Oh obviously they don't as the largest navy outside of India, China, the Russians (mostly defunt 1980's vessels) and obviously the US Navy, However the RN has more tonnage than both the next two NATO navies combined Italy, and France. So you still don't know what you are saying. Deluded is what you still remain.

      The edited bit. Last year they were so freindly to their USMC counter parts, that they finished an exercise within an hour of starting, specifically so that the USMC could go get cleaned up. and go home whilst they (the Royal Marines) played around with the exercise grounds, and their equipment, for them!!

    Thank god they’ve purchased some fast boats. Lads I know got bored of rowing. Imagine as well if the enemy could hear the silent boat and see the wake. Oops, forgot it’s grey. On a positive note our wonderful aircraft carriers will protect us. Imagine the amazing electronics they have but a mechanical issue prevented a simple movement. Russia, come on over and take us. The only reason we get away with things is because we are a staging post for America. They won’t let us fail because we are required to conquer.
