To true. the first of any class of warship tends to suck I’m actually proud of our naval engineers for finding these problems in that they find problems down here instead in the Arctic.

As was discussed a while up, Canadian doctrine apparently doesn’t have a full AOR for HADR let alone for RAS chasing drug smugglers when every ship is very much close enough to land to RAS itself.

I was thinking moving Canadian stores to Europe. They gave up on loading vls a while back.

Don’t tell the Americans it doesn’t not work. 🤪

One thing that caught my eyes is the delivery of the first MPV being 2029, so there build would dovetail with JSS2 and Polar icebreaker. One thing i don’t know is how fast a moderately efficient yard can build a 25,000 diesel electric ship...

HI Everyone, Below is a local newspaper talking about the JSS with mentions of JSS2 and OSFV. https://www.nsnews.com/local-news/navys-joint-support-ship-taking-shape-at-seaspan-shipyard-5642201

Damn specifications.

I wonder if part of the displacement inflation in modern frigates is treating sailors like humans. Perhaps it will help in both recuitment and retention.

I guess sucessive governments had bigger ambitions. I have no idea why they added Fleet command to them, but there it is. It has to had passed many review so. My point about Asterix is that it does not meet a number of requirements. That’s it. No hate. Also if war their is another gulf war...

What does the 1st Gulf War have to do with SNMG 1 or 2, or operation Neon have to do with current doctrine?

Interim AOR LOL. Davie will ride this forever. You asked me why i had a problem with Asterix and you got an answer.

Why would it be unacceptable to our allies. Why would how we choose to employ our AORs and battle groups Need approval from our please? Why would they care in the first place.

NoNe whatsoever. The problem is that people seem to unreasonably love that ship. It is a slick ship that does almost none of what many governments over time said were needed. I’ll leave it that.

Excellent. Thanks. Cue someone opining about Asterix.

My impression of that video, beyond the specific engineering and some imaginative solutions, is that Boeing is a victim of its history lie all of us. And the post MD merger.

Thanks you for the video. My post stroke communication levels are full. Talk to you tomorrow.

FSWAR: instead of buying the right one first, let’s building our own. MRTT news: https://www.flyingmag.com/airbus-a330-mrtt-certificated-for-automatic-aerial-refueling/ It is a plane that work. KC-X Instead buying one that work, let’s build our own plane…so we can keep a 767 line open. I’m...

They’re the most used because it is was the only one. They are used in America by Americans because ‘Merica I agree with the statement 737 opened the skies for manny people. And they did that without covering their landing gear. 😀 My point is that Airbus is winning the single aisles and the...

At this point in what I’ve learned, i wouldn't say that the landing gear is the problem. It is anachronistic and a symptom of a bigger problem in Boeing, as you said. From what I can tell, the A321xlr crossed the Atlantic before Boeing’s design cross a computer screen. Anyway, so we kind of...
