PARATROOPERS Train In New High-Tech URBAN BATTLEFIELD SIMULATOR 

also home to a roman legion

@@andreascovano7742 which is also awesome lol

@@Tomm-o The Para's are the modern day legions

@@andreascovano7742 Romans invaded Britain in the past?

@@1anre nah they just spawned in

Well now you know who the training is designed to be used on!

Like shooting innocent people in the back l unarmed real cool??

@@johnorourke9767 shut it

Not really leading the way other armies have similar thubgs it is a good addition though

Always have been

All the troops in this video are Paras from 16 Air Assault Brigade, so it's Brits leading other Brits in room clearing...

That isn’t funny.

@@nodus7853 That is your opinion.

Yeah, noticed that. You’d think the establishment don’t like the paras.

They've all been busy playing soggy biscuit.

@@JammyDodger45 haha well im joining so i hope thats not on the quota

@@davidcockayne3381 its because they don't want to use the paras how they are meant to and trying to justify getting rid

@@non-masturbatingtyrannosau3476?? They are the core of the global response force- The spearhead of the British army... Just because operationally parachuting isn't a common insertion method anymore doesn't demean their importance.

Your military equipment is very modern, Germany’s new infantry fighting vehicle is state of the art!

@Yourda 473i do tell where? Asia or Eastern Europe

Although it was still fun!

@@its_kier yes especially the manaquins that regularly got a rifle butt “hello thire soldier “ comming out of the shop 😂😂😂 and the mother and baby that would get 22 shot up and all on video for de brief 😂😂😂

"its easy to use"

It's garbage ... Everyone knows it.

@Leslie Dodds still trash. And it shows as nobody else in the world is using these weapons. Fact: when it comes to weapons the British have no pull whatsoever. Yes I said it, it's not their strong suit.

@@Roomer645 "Fact: when it comes to weapons the British have no pull whatsoever." Errr Lee-Enfield rifle? Bren Gun? SLR? Sten Gun? Lewis Gun? Martini Henry rifle? Vickers Gun? Historically speaking, British weapons have held their own in wars. And also it's the soldier using it that makes it an effective weapon, not the gun itself.

@@Bullet-Tooth-Tony- Those are some iconic weapons indeed but they were not all perfect. Even more, your talking about weapons of almost a century ago. Name me great British weapons of the past 50 years that really made a difference .....

@Leslie Dodds It's dated in all aspects, looks dated and has been there for ages. They should move on instead of modifing something that was rubbish from the start.

There is no Tier 2 formation, new or otherwise

@@JammyDodger45 🤭 watch this space.

The Corps is fully committed to Future Commando Force, we're not going to be sidelined into a ridiculous CIMIC STTT gig. We'll leave that to the 4 x Pongo battalions who are already regretting accepting the role. Tier 2 indeed 🙄

@@OrionPCs - look at the current retention rate in the 4 x 'Specialist' Battalions ... I'm pretty sure the Regimental Colonels regret taking on the role!

@@OrionPCs - the MoD publish an annual Manning Return for all its units. Please, in your infinite wisdom, tell me why these 4 Battalions feature at the bottom of the retention table. Do you think it's a coincidence?

The L85A3 is shorter in length while still retaining longer barrel length than the C8, I’d rather take the A3 for CQB personally.

Never? I fired a C8 once on a special weapons package run by a 22 maj and never saw it again. This was almost 10 years ago and it's still not in service.

@@JC-kz3ut thats unfortunate

Well it is in service because the marines use it and so do the RMP close protection teams as well as the pathfinders

@@G82_M yes but when will the all parachute regiments receive it because as far as I know only SFSG and PF use them for the airborne forces

Check out the 4GD website Patricio, this facility is just the base level, lots to add on.

@@andyhunter6734 ok

But this one cost half a million quid, much better!

Hopefully, but you may well find the Chinese people’s army a slightly different proposition to unarmed civilians in Belfast or Derry or some goat herders in Afghanistan.

Yeah, in the school, mall or street...

be quiet

This isn't the only urban warfare training they receive…

More readily accessible. Don’t need to organise a whole day trip out with vehicles

Don’t need to go on bams 6 months before to book a days training.

Para Veg admin is so 💩 they'd book the range and forget the buses!

Well the paras are part of the army and are very limited on advertising whereas the marines are the poster boys of the navy and the only infantry unit in it

Marines have to catch up with PARA Regt on professionalism and capabilities, always a step behind. Marines reinventing the wheel and rerolling to what they were back in WW II and not just what they are at the moment Naval Infantry. The standard was set in 1982 as to who was the best and not slipped since. SFSG was predominantly PARA Regt, Marines got hoofed off the range for being a shambles during the setup and now integrated with 1 PARA as their standards were not as high and needed bringing up to speed. It's always OPTICS with Marines, they even had to steal our motto "Ready for Anything."

@@stephentaylor2119 - and yet for the last few years the RM has provided more successful candidates to UKSF than Para Veg. 🤷🏻‍♂️ No wonder you don't have to earn your cherry berry unlike the coveted Green Lid. 🟦🟨🟩🟥🟦

@@stephentaylor2119 But they’re actually kicking more ass than I’ve seen any Para do in the last 24 months. Cross control training, Arctic Warfare, things Paras don’t even smell to do. You have to give it to the RM, those commandos have the latest Tech, collaboration with the US forces & access to intelligence that the Paras will have to work very hard to meet up to The videos are all over RU-vid, be it the Gibraltar one or the Norway one or the American desert one.

@@G82_M Limited on Advertising, but are the loudest always claiming to be baby special forces ? Even the entire UK Army doesn’t get the same publicity as the Marines do, they have to step it up. Recruitment is swaying massively in the commandos favor these past few years, and these “optics” is why.

From the way it’s looking, the a lot more of armed forces are going to be taking on special operations, numbers of personal are being slimmed and troops being trained to a higher level than they already were.

I think it’s probably impressive or at least new for our armed forces because we barely have the money to build these types of things

An exercise in conditioning, coming as it does at the time the queen is expected to announce an amnesty for troops who murdered civilians in NI , we are expected to conclude that they previously lacked proper training. The truth is , they where ordered to murder Irish men , women and children alike.

@@jamesoneill2933 Thats what happens what a power comes to take over your country. I don't know what you expect an army to do when its come over to control land overseas. But it's not to play hopscotch and make nurseries

@@TheFreshSpam I know some people enjoy a good hopscotch tournament, they’ve been all over ,place’s such as Bishopsgate and Canary Wharf and over in Europe too. It’s entirely understandable.

@@TheFreshSpam A good flat surface is imperative to ensure maximum leverage.

It’s called simunition. The ammunition resembles and actual 556 round with a casing being ejected but the actual projectile is just a white pellet. These are not air soft toys, they are our actual personal rifles with a different bolt inserted and special ammunition.

no these are higher level than any usa there brits

Mate it’s CQB training, pretty sure all military and police tactical units use CQB training.

Commando

@@nohandle747 Good choice

A Para trained Commando!

@@nohandle747 Especially, since some of the raids they did.

Special Forces Paratrooper

Electronics involved = high tech

Precisely, hence the declaration that , no matter how blatant their murderous exploits in Ireland , they continue to remain above the law. Of course we here in Ireland fully anticipated the British reneging on the GFA as they are known for it globally.

Also, teach how to react to hand to hand indoors.. similar to milling,. Get into a controlled rumble in close quarters (indoors). When posting how your troops are trained. Remember that if you, one day are turned against a developed nation.. these videos will be seen as Intel.

The M4 is larger than the L85....

Bullpups are shorter and better for CQB than an M4. Besides 1Para and the Pathfinder Platoon use the C8 variant (which is very compact) so I suspect although I don’t know that that will trickle down to 2 and 3 Para, 4 might be a bit of a stretch but they’re working alongside 2 and 3 then it’s possible they’ll get the same kit. My understanding is they’re trying to give the bootnecks and paras better kit but with that said our military is about as well funded Sunderland football club so there’s every chance they’ll just have to end up lobbing potato’s at the enemy

@@jonathanrussell594 I get your point but what most of these Paras are doing in this vid is CQB training as you see, I would call it ‘Insufficient Intel’ as most military’s and police tactical units do CQB training, just saying what I think mate, nothing else.

@@jonathanrussell594 Im pretty sure they are already taught hand to hand combat.

Yeah I bet your Airsoft team are waaaaaaay better than these guys.

@@JammyDodger45 and you have no idea on gun safety

@@steventhomas8514 - thanks but I've put more rounds down a 'two way range' than you've fired on your console. And guess what ... neither myself or any of my Troops have ever had a ND or accidentally shot one another. Weird given how much you've learned from YT on weapon handling. Idiot.

I'm not. I'm in a Corps. But not an Army one.

@@JammyDodger45 ahh so you should have noticed yourself the point when he walks in front of the gun. And another soldier blocking off his view down his sight with his own arm with the barrel right next to he squad mates ear so we have one shot in side/back another deaf in one ear

Did you not hear the bit where he said they can put enemy soldiers in the rooms to shoot back. I’d be stressed if I knew I could get hit with paintballs. Firing real ammo indoors has a lot of potential risks with it. Nobody should be dying in training just for the sake of realism. The whole point you’d do these exact drills in the real world. The difference is the ammo you’re using

@@tomstravels520 kid 1st live ammo gets used sparingly with the british military, other world forces use live ammo regularly not only for muscle memory but for the simply fact everyone needs to handle weapons safely "that includes within conflicts along with other added benefits.. anyway paint ball & laser targeting is one aspect which gives some elements of threat, however this being a single floor modular room layout, it also lacks realism ie not all doors are freely open, they can be damaged/locked/booby trapped you need to use forceful entry etc "the list goes on" then you have the lack of content within the rooms ie furniture innocent ppl hiding & so on anyway the list of what's really required out do what these rooms can supply, they should keep & use the mock villages/streets & give them flexible internal details along with external features rather then a simple ill-effective cost cutting idea such as this & the other virtual reality simulator/video game... if you really think this simulates a real situation your so wrong... also noting the difference between this & a real element entering a building/rooms etc are alot more then simply ammunition

@@malp6280 do you really think what you see in this video is all it’s restricted to? Do you work there? Do you know what they could install in the future and try out? You have no idea what else they may do to this facility to improve. It’s just showing it as a new facility currently. The whole point of this site is that it’s on the camp ready to use almost immediately. Do you have any idea how much work has to be done to go to the mock villages even for 1 day?

@@tomstravels520 kid 1st training villages/streets are located at training grounds of which troops go to stay for weeks (its not go & train & then return home on the same day/weekend etc) also some military bases have such or similar on-site(depends which your talking about) as for future improvements, its spoken about in the feature & yes it all comes down to budget cuts within the military, also not forgetting this site is located at a single location currently other sites would require such to be built "when they've already got better facilities which could be modified to suit for a better training arena.. as for my past, kid.. sorry that's for me, I can certainly state the budget cuts are killing training requirements for real world events.

@@malp6280 listen child, I know all about training grounds and this is an opportunity for something different. You still have no idea how much planning has to go into big exercises. A place like this you can just book and then get on with it. It’s called convenience. And then when you go and do it in the mock villages (which by the way are the same buildings every single time) then you can be better at it. And who says they won’t build a place like this in Catterick or in Tidworth. I don’t need to see or know your past when all I can see you’re obsessed with is your mini and dashcam videos

Only when there’s gunmen in the crowd sending rounds their way :)
