Author Lewis Page set off a firestorm of controversy and accusations when he wrote an explosive story on the British military’s most useless and expensive hardware. In this puckish and provocative book, he tells the full story.
This irreverent and provocative study exposes the scandalous state of contemporary armed forces as well as the politicians, top brass, and practices who keep these numerous flaws under wraps. Topics addressed include the terrible armaments provided to British soldiers; the huge financial costs incurred by financing useless weapons and systems; the extreme waste in funds throughout the modern military system.
