    Adaptable Strike Frigate

    The PBO CSC report figure 2-1 implies that that the Development of the CSC will drop quickly when Acquisition starts. No doubt that there will be differences between the first few and subsequent ships. But that’s all i see.

    RPAS (was JUSTAS): the project to buy armed Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) UAVs

    Sorry everyone. Fatigue and aphasia makes nonsense.

    Canadian River Class Destroyer Megathread

    I hate to quote myself is but to acknowledge. i was falling in for the average that people like me fall for. If you look at Figure 2-1 it shows small shoulders with for development and disposal with the huge centre. I’m not certain how to read the entire document, though I know my first...

    Canadian River Class Destroyer Megathread

    A personal thank you for the information and the link. Make me less amateurish on the costing of the CSC. The weird thing is that is only ~ 5 billion a year. 2% seems like a dream.

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    Like most things in Russia, the bow thruster was stolen and sold on the black market.

    Canadian River Class Destroyer Megathread

    … The F35 as an example for the CSC The reason that we got the F35s was not entirely our choice. ANy of the choices offered to serve Canada’s needs for an interceptor for Russia (and soon to be Chinese) bombers. The reason we (and German) got F35s in spite of other options was because the...

    Canadian River Class Destroyer Megathread

    Except our job is to keep the shipping lanes open. That includes a true sub hunter not your idealized Huitfeld. Also the Huitfeld is built like a ferry with guns and missiles rather than a war ship.If we wanted a loud ship we would have ordered the Alion bid in the first place. Why are we...

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    I wonder if it’s also based on the NoCGV Svalbard, just like Harry DeWold class. (Huge Sarcasm)). There’s only so many ways to build a medium class icebreaker.

    The B-21 will be revealed to the public on Dec 2nd. https://www.northropgrumman.com/what-we-do/air/b-21-raider/?&source=SNS-13494 I hope this is not out of place on a Canadian forum.

    Adaptable Strike Frigate

    I’m watching this closely. I’m curious about how it can be useful for Canada. I don’t know how it would be built. Perhaps at Davie once they’ve warmed up with a few Icebreakers like Irving with the HDW. Yes I think we need more than 15 warships. Crewing would be a problem, but I’ll leave it at...

    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    60 billion for the entire project from 2017 to 2042. The Type 26 was designed as a warship, while the Iver Huitfeld was not. Tons of compartments take alone takes a lot of time and money to build. I’ve read that also covers the operating costs of the already built CSC ships but I can’t find a...

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

    If i remember correctly, Alion’s whining when they lost the CSC com was shut down using national security law. Saab will be sent packing for the same reason.

    Sensor netting and Cooperative Engagmenot are often used interchangeability in American sites and online journals, as well as CSC’s web page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative_Engagement_Capability

    The only reason i did ask is because the CSC has CEC.

    AOR Replacement & the Joint Support Ship (Merged Threads)

    Given the JSS command facilities, I would assume that Sensor Netting would be a given. I can’t find any information indicating if that is true. Any of you guys know?

    AOR Replacement & the Joint Support Ship (Merged Threads)

    That’s great information. I shall run with it. I knew about reformer the the purpose of a naval interceptor, and of course reforger, but i didn’t know about the Canadian STraatgey and tactics. Because canada doesn’t talk about our role in the Cold War, the only stuff easily available is Canada’s...

    AOR Replacement & the Joint Support Ship (Merged Threads)

    I’ll grant that I know little about specific tactics for Cyclones. We’re dancing around that there is somewhere to go RAS. If i were the enemy I’d kill the logistics very soon in any true war. Especially beause we’d want to fight over there not over here. I’d hope that wed keep our as full...
