    27 Sep 2026 - British counterterrorism op near RAF Fairford

    Unless they are hoping they will lead them to their connections? The other possibility is they were up to no good that has nothing to do with the base or terrorism. Might be some sort of other rural crime?

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    Not sure they are replacing or Parallelring their existing coal loading facility?

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    From my understanding, it's not a level playing field and lot of TFW were brought in to drive trucks, bringing the price the haulage companies were willing to pay drivers way down. Forcing companies to hire people already here and properly trained will help solve that.

    I googled costs and issues with getting that potash from Belarus, the closest port is in Lithuania and they refuse to do business with Belarus, so the potash would have to go through a Russian port. Putin I am sure is going to be happy for the tranist fees....

    Indirect Fires Modernization Project - C3/M777 Replacement

    In your view, do Manpads belong to the Artillery Air Defense units or be organic to the various Infantry and Armour units?

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    Yea well I was in we flew 3 different types of fighters and most of that part stocking and maintenance records were done by hand or on computers that barely had any memory. But somehow we managed.

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    Bomb truck is one element, Chances of both fleets being grounded for issues is limited. Less issues with maintenance and I suspect less security requirements. The F15x is faster and flies higher. Carries significantly more payload, has a far greater airframe life and and lower maintenance...

    Indirect Fires Modernization Project - C3/M777 Replacement

    Have Canada build new carriages and we can re-equip all of our Reserve units and make more for the Ukrainians. Would get us back into the heavy weapons game. Eventually making barrels here as well.
