Nothing against the Brits but the USA has a kick a** army. :D

The US army is only superior due them having greater financial resources. I'd say the British army are better trained, at least the special forces, and more respected for not being as aggressive with the civilian population whos countries they are occupying. The British army seem to use their heads more, and not just their guns, hence "friendly fire" incidents are usually the US shooting the British, or themselves. But both do an amazing job.



Hmmm..... no offense Monty but technically it wasn't really the Americans that beat the British was it? Let's not forget the massive role that the French played in it, oh and the Spanish and the Dutch! ( I'm refering to the American revolution, don't know anything about the 1812 war and can't be arsed to have a look but I'm sure there will be some more to that one too!) The French, Spanish and Dutch lent you their centuries old expertise of warfare and of fighting the British, as well as their men. Also the British were out numbered by about 3-1 and thousands of miles away from their land, so the odds were kind of stacked in the Americans favour. Had this been the other way around at that time, the Americans invading Britain, out numbered by 3-1 and the Brits having support from some of the most powerful nations of the time I'm quite sure the US would have been defeated under such circumstances. The fact that it lasted so long under such circumstances is if anything a testament to how strong the British were. So to the British, the American revolution never really counts as a valid arguement! No one has invaded and conquered the British Isles since 1066 when we were all a bunch of peasants. Since then our tiny nation has been the victim of attempted invasions many, many times but nobody has ever managed it, not even managed to step foot on the land. My point being that it's a little bit weak to bring the revolution into this. When the US has successfully defended its land from invasion as many times as us (from a nation that has as much military might as the US, as has been the case for the British), and with no help from the world's most powerful countries, then fair enough!

The 62nd Royal American Regiment, descended from Rogers Raiders, were the forerunners of the Kings Royal Rifle Corps (60th) who amalgamated into the Royal Greenjackets with Ox&Bucks LI(43rd/52nd) and The Rifle Brigade (95th) in 1958.. They are now part of The Rifles. They were the first British regiment to realise that green was a more suitable colour than red for their uniforms, although they were not allowed to lose the red completely.

The British army

Ok This is no Offence to americans at all.

But the Brits are trained more, They get alot of training, The training has gone down a lil since world war 2. But brits are trained very well they are very good.

The americans tho, I dont think they are trained much, They have alot of friendly fire inccidents, But the americans Have LOADS Of troops, The country is so big they have a big army,



If they went Into war against eachother.. Id say the Americans would win, Not because they are better but because they have More soldiers, If it was say 1000 brits against 1000 USA soldiers, Id say brits would win. (Well trained ones ofcourse)

British soldiers own but America has better equipment and a bigger army so in an all out war, I'm gonna have to go with the US. On the other hand, seals vs. sas: sas would own

the u.s.a has defeated the british army twice in the 200 + years .

the american revolution and the war of 1812 .and we have covered each other,s back ever sense world war 1 and there have even been americans pilots flying british aircraft during the first years of world war 2 and we still have bases in england sense world war 2 also ,so to me it would be a toss up .

the British army is far superior. The american army has the numbers and equipment but the British army is better trained is just better at fighting. too much whooping from the americans.
2009-04-12 16:36:10 UTC
Being an American, of course I am very proud of our military. I also tip my hat to the Brits as well. A competent, brave soldier deserves respect.
2009-04-12 16:19:28 UTC
The US Army is very much the bigger and better equipped army although for it's size, the British Army is the most professional and battle hardened in the world and many serving US soldiers will attest to that.
2009-04-12 16:23:25 UTC
The american army is much bigger than the british army but doesnt mean they have better soldiers.They are all equal the british have the better special forces though.
2009-04-12 16:20:36 UTC
Is it 'Who' do you suppose?

Let's see how this question looks in English.

'Who has the superior army, the British or the North Americans?'

er The Brits.

2009-04-12 16:19:37 UTC
This is daft cos the Americans will say them. and the Brits will say British..

They're both equaly good. They both do a great job. I'm sure there's strong and weak points on both sides.

if in fact you mean "who has the best army Brits or Americans"

" I was just wondering who has the best Army Brits or Americans" I would have to say Americans simply because my son Jordan is in the American Army he is an Army of one!! But any country that has an army in place to protect their home and people and stand proud they are the best army the difference here is are we talking about the troops or the fire power

I don't care about that. What I care is that the American Army, with the British, Canadian and Australian Army are doing a great job in Iraq and Afghanistan helping those poor people.

I'm sure to get a lot of thumbs down for this, but here you go:



In afganistan, at one point the us rangers moved on (kabul?) and upon meeting heavy resistance, pulled back and sent the british in.

USA I'd say. Tough choice, though. Even though Im in the US Army.



BOTH have balls though, I wont lie. I RESPECT the BRITISH army a ton.



We're all brothers in arms. I'll probably meet some platoons of British soldiers whenever Im in Afghanistan lol.

as soldiers or people? As people, I'm sure they are about the same, but the USA has a stronger army.

ask yourself this question...which army coined the term "friendly fire" to explain why it kills more of it's own soldiers than the enemy does...

(hint...it's not the brits)
