Positives - very up to date and well structured into Land, Air and Maritime domains. Really good breadth of topics.
Negatives - too few Industry or Military guest speakers and some of the Journalists have better voices for Podcasts than others.
Not for the feint of heart listener. You need to know your defence. But this is comprehensive, thorough and useful for those in the defence and military spheres. Highly recommended
This is not for the ‘casual ‘ listener it’s full of jargon and acronyms, so if you struggle to understand this isn’t for you
