UK defense sources have revealed that a senior US general has warned Defense Secretary Ben Wallace that the British Army is barely a “tier-two” fighting force.
One of the sources slammed Rishi Sunak for failing as a “wartime prime minister” unless he takes urgent action to modernize Britain’s military by boosting the defense budget by at least $3.7 billion.
The armed forces would reportedly run out of ammunition “in a few days” if fully mobilized and would need up to a decade to prepare a war-fighting division of 30,000 troops.
