TBH the dash/instrument panel on the Patria is clearly purpose built. One suspects that shortly it will become practical for Roshel to go that route as well / mainly to be able to incorporate various features on the displays there, and not have a lot of clunky crap in the center. The...

Imagine my surprise…

Fastest way into a new ‘car". In terms of annual production and availability ARO: *assuming on doesn’t want a Chinese J-10C :cautious: 1)Lockheed Martin F-16V Block 70/72 2) Boeing F-15EX Eagle II 3) Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet Unfortunately all American made so that doesn’t really make...

I chose to believe he is the Manchurian Candidate - destroying the US and NATO, while strengthening our enemies.

1 Bde would be an ‘Armoured’ Bde, the others being not, I don’t think it’s surprising that the resultant support structure (inc combat support) be different. Ideally the Infantry in 1 Bde would be in a tracked IFV as well. But Canada being Canada will likely retain LAV for that role. The LIR...

Unfortunately by the time Western Military and Political powers get into rhythm, Russia is usually already onto 3-4 different other nefarious Grey Zone operations.

At the end of the day, the side that can gather more information, process it quicker, and act on it faster, will be able to shape the battle.

In this instance NATO as a collective (as well as individual European member states) have AEWACC and individual members have AD Radar Nets and AD systems, as well as Alert Aircraft dedicated for NATO and domestic patrol. Militarily the kill chain was shortened. Politically there is now the...
