At sea? Pretty soon based on some stuff I've seen. On shore? No idea.

What do you for see ?

What do you for see ?

The new UAV plan. They've done some preliminary work in IDing UAV's that can transfer pallets between ships. Not needed right now as JSS is still to be introduced, but its on the board.

Wantedto tee up and see if anyone is hearing anything interesting on the CAMO front. Been pretty quiet for a few months it seems. We have to be getting into thr brass tacks at this point several months down the road.

Arty Bns are standing down OP Btys in April, establishing ATGs, while the STA Btys will be in flux. In 1 RCHA C Bty will form the nucleus of or LRPF with NCOs and Officers going off on probably HIMARS course to form the cadre until 3 RCHA stands up and 1 moves to rockets.

I've been playing with my napkin army and long ago decided that the OP battery should be converted back to a gun battery. Tactical groups should just be a large troop inside the STA battery. In some ways FOOs are "sensors."

Good to see things are moving on HIMARS.

Incidentally saw this article in the Stag. Very interesting. It's a good idea to get gunner stuff up north for experience in doing the math up there. IMHO, the right weapon up there is HIMARS rapidly shuttled in by CC130 and out again.

STA and OP troops will be part of the gun Bty. I largely differ in that I'd have the OPs in their supported units vs in the artillery regiments. The important relationship is more with the supported commander than with the gun CP who should be able to take anyone's data... if FATES wasn't ass. An OP battery is a reasonable compromise we're a bit unique in doing it the way we do.

Yeah we'll see how it goes. They're going to shoot some illum just to say they did it. I anticipate some blown hydraulics lol.
