A sad day for the Royal Navy. No conjecture. No urban myths. No rumours. Just analysis from people who have been to sea on Type 42 destroyers. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/s...

Folks episode two is up of our Air Raid Warning Red series. Now, this is a bit nerdy but if you really want to understand what a close run thing the battle was, we felt it’s important to understand the kit a d tactics being used. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/s... open.spotify.com/episode/2NM1...

On the 20th May 1982, ships of the Royal Navy, Royal Fleet Auxiliary and merchant navy commenced the riskiest military operation carried out by Great Britain since WWII. Join the team as we discuss the landings at San Carlos and Argentinian response. It’s expert analysis by people who have served.

Five years. Two Adriatic patrols, an epic Far East jolly and some great times. Lean about life at sea. Mess parties, S10 respirators and beer, five deck dashes and a disastrous cheese and wine party down 6D2 Warfare mess. Read about it here! podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/s...

Story time with @fouthtimelucky.bsky.social HMS Exeter 2008. A month after this was taken, she decommissioned. She was my first ship in 1990. She had been down the Falklands in 1982, and when I joined was preparing for war in the Persian Gulf. /1

Gunnery is funnery. You’ll have seen the black and white photo on our latest podcast Through The Gunsight. This is a good explanation of how a very simple aiming reticule works. It’s not of course tailored for anti-surface shoots so you’d very lead ‘lead’ tracer onto target.

We spoke with our friend in Odesa about the psychological toll of the war and how resilience evolved as Russia’s naval power diminished. It’s an important perspective to accompany our larger discussion on the Black Sea Fleet’s lost victories. Many, many thanks to Olga for joining us.

And we are up for part one of your guide to the maritime war. A special guest host, and a fella who’s been there done that in the anti submarine world, and two Royal Navy veterans. We unpick the major events, look at the kit, and try to work out how Russia lost the initiative and what may yet happen

Fantastic recording with @dmbrookfield.bsky.social @intercityfc.bsky.social @hopc.bsky.social on Tuesday night. The hard stop was three hours. The end recording was about five. We covered tactical data links, SAMS, prostate examination and stair lifts in a wide ranging varied recording.
