They have a marine version of the system.

Would we not be in a good situation to make Gun Ships? Mount multiple Sky Ranger type systems through out a hull. Have two to three on the stern, two midships and two forward with the main gun? We could produce the entire system domestically here at Home. Then provide a old new school air...

I think people understand that a Modern Warship is a complex platform. What they di not understand is how a complex system that is suppose to have efficiencies requires as much or more crew then a WWII ship of similar class/ size. Honestly I think your over simplifying modern ship building and...

How the heck are you suppose to get a load or two of fire wood with the thing? Disappointed. (I wonder if you could make a 2x4 high side boards to strengthen it up enough to fit another cord or two into it) 😅

This has been a long time coming. I am glad to see this might become a reality. This will hopefully excel our 6/7 gen programs.

This is why we have the Communications and Electronics Branch. They can set up tower networks for local areas to communicate. Then they can set up larger towers for distance comms. They can use frequency/ cell blockers to keep regular traffic from using the network.

It is on hold for now. Olds may not be getting the center and may not get to see any future major developments from other companies. Time will tell.

The Business Council of Alberta adds other factors to the possible slow down such as Tariffs. Tariffs have had a large effect across the board. It is easy to blame one in your face factor while ignoring the actual factors. We have seen across the country the major effects of the tariffs on...

Yet interprovincial migration is still leading the country, major investments are still being had here. I wonder how the survey was conducted and what the exact demographic was used.

Ideally I would run three crews (2.5 if you really have to) for two ships. 1 crew operating, 1 crew resting/ Training/ sailing and 1 crew doing training/ Refit etc. That way you can run two ships at sea for short durations like the trips to Rimpac or up and down the coast for shake out...

A few weeks of pack drill up and down the side of a mountain might be fitting before kicking their 🫏 out of the Military.

I see a great role for the AOPS. They have a strengthened hull, can not use their flight deck and can store food for 4months and can add cans for boarding parties. Add a few stinger missile stations and voila you have a excellent mission for the ship class. :unsure: :rolleyes:.

The ME has been trying over the past few years to bury the hatchet with Israel once and for all for prosperity, security and safety going forward. The hamas attacks in Israel derailed the largest peace deal in the Gulf in my life time. Iran was the largest supporter and possible perpetrator of...

I would block Alberta from separating if I was from the rest of Canada also. A significant amount of people from both Eastern and Western Canada make above average wages and take them home to spend in their local towns. A large portion of goods travel through Ab on the way east or west to get to...

That is an assumption made. I wonder what supporting documents and or research you have to back that up? Funny I was still in School then, I do not think I was driving much during that time frame. But I remember the big discussions about it. I remember some of the issues with the new fuel...
