I got a message that the V1 model I presented to the CO in January needs a new helicopter....apparently someone was looking with their hands not their eyes .. er... playing.... er .... accidentally dropped the Cyclone I made her, so she needs a new one. So I have 4 on the printer - I'll do up...

Mine cost considerably less than that....

CMS330 is scale-able as I recall. CMS330 is proven to integrate with the following systems that are common to both Halifax Class and Meko: Phalanx CIWS MK41 VLS/ESSM Harpoon Raytheon CW MK73 Also, compatible with the Rheinmetall MASS (already installed on HFX) I would say that it's...

Interestingly, one of the foundations of military equipment is small arms. The GOC's policies of the past few years related to small arms have devastated that industry in Canada. Several manufacturers have closed up shop, innovation has been driven offshore, and due to the political climate...

This is why, for the 3rd year, we're running a Marksmanship Training program in the summer in 36 Bde. Fun.

Want a 3D printed C-130? I can scale up....

Friend of mine who's shot a bit tried one of them at Connaught and indicated that with the Suppressor, it seems more like a paintball gun in terms of felt recoil and noise. Also the muzzle rise is probably 30-40% of what it was with a C-7. That's good news for follow-up shots. He mentioned...

There is discussion from both of a 70% drop in logistics transport across the 'land bridge', and varied reports of fuel shortages in Crimea, and now rumbles of food shortages. That should be concerning to the russians.

Is it possible that there was a grand strategy in behind all of this afterall? No....that's too much to hope for...?

Looks like some urban explorers spent a few hours in a Russian/Chinese Kilo class sub: Can you imagine this sort of access a few years ago...? Wow.
