The Americans have bombed the hell out of Iran. How much Iranian territory have they taken? Has the bombing compelled Iran to give in to US demands? I'm very much in favour of autonomous systems and cheaper precision fires, but ultimately you need boots on the ground (and their irrelevant...

There shouldn't be any issue with letting her leave the country.... ...now letting her back in is another story!

What you seem to be describing is your everyday, run of the mill, Ontario pot plant. Non-descript. Secure. Lots of parking. Basic footprint offers lots of flexibility for internal design.

The 120mm mortar requirement is separate from the SP Howitzer requirement. Different roles so it's not a one or the other scenario.

Maybe he's one of the un-named regime members that the administration claims to be having negotiations with?

You seem to be much more willing to deploy US ground forces in a number of places (Yemen, Iran) than either the US administration or US public appear to be willing to do.

I stand to be corrected, but I don't think the suggestion was that for example that an active mall with an empty tenant location (like a former Bay store) would be used as an armoury, but rather that a mall that has been completely closed (and there are a few) could be transformed in whole into...

A couple of things related to the Ukraine War... Are we getting closer to the point where first contact will be drone vs drone? https://defence-blog.com/ukraine-claims-first-ever-battle-between-naval-drones/ More and more being bolted on to tanks to counter the drone threat...

Of course with our Arctic territories we'd have to modify the idea somewhat...

Interesting that the Engineer Regiments (other than 4ESR) and the Support Battalions were not listed in the Divisional re-assignments in the Organization Message while pretty much every other CA unit (including bands) as far as I can tell were. Is there still some question as to where they will...

Yes and no I guess. Building a one-off batch of Gripens doesn't make a lot of sense to me. You need something to follow to keep domestic production going and more Gripens after the initial contract don't make sense when other options like GCAP will be coming online. I've always felt the...

Nah....hardly a war at all https://defence-blog.com/u-s-forces-destroy-three-iranian-oil-tankers/

I'm surprised that the Light Regiment hasn't been given an Arctic focus...and BvS10 would be great for that but I don't think you'd have much luck towing an M777 up there. Better choice would be to have a 120mm mortar version.
