    Medium Cavalry: Critical Capability or Poor Man’s MBT?

    Let's be honest things have morphed a long way since man first picked up a rock. Indirect fire sort of went away with the demise of the Longbowmen and Trebuchet, and Artillery where pretty much a direct fire weapon in the days of Wellington and Napoleon. No amount of historical claims work...

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure

    I find it hard to believe that many if any PRes unit have 2 actual field companies. Regardless 2 companies isn’t a BN, and could easily be commanded by a Major, or merged with other units to form a 3 Rifle Coy plus Combat Support Coy and Adm/HQ Coy to make them a real formation as opposed to...

    Medium Cavalry: Critical Capability or Poor Man’s MBT?

    So like Mechanized Infantry… He isn’t wrong. It’s garbage, that was used to situate an estimate.

    Canada's tanks

    Or you could launch MICLIC’s and save time… Keep your plows, blades and rollers for secondary fields sewn after the primary breach.

    Anti-Tank Platoon or Anti-Tank Battery? - 24 Vertical Launch JAGMs on a WAPC

    Because we have seen them fail in combat... They get a lot of combat usage? Just like Lowbeds in the Military for longer admin moves. Not a good look there. The difference is the Hook is massively evolved, and the Buff's have been rebuild and reworked to hell and back. Last war vehicles...

    Medium Cavalry: Critical Capability or Poor Man’s MBT?

    Hagglunds doesn't exist anymore, it is a wholly owned subsidiary of BAE Systems. Nowhere did I suggest building one plant. I think you will find that the AFV plants cannot do a 3 shift setup due to maintenance - so while you may be able to get a second shift going - I don't think that any of...

    Canada's tanks

    Not really. Unless you are opting for M1A1's, or can swing some newly mothballed M1A2 SepV3's, you are playing a fairly long waiting game with the K-2 Black Panther being the next available option. Or if you act now, you could have another unit equipped with Leo2 A7 or A8, by 2037...

    Medium Cavalry: Critical Capability or Poor Man’s MBT?

    It isn't a tank, and it isn't designed as a tank. It is a Medium Tracked Combat vehicle in various optional configurations - none of which are a tank. I think the CV-90 is a good system, even a great system - but I don't see the point of putting a tank gun on it. It isn't a heavy and...

    Is it time to list ANTIFA as a criminal or terrorist organization?

    Germany in the 1930’s and more recently down here.

    A Deeply Fractured US

    Well to be fair in this situation, the previous administration had bright back the Obama era ‘cleansing’ of data, and had focused on white suprematism for terror and violence. Now personally I don’t support deleting any data or reports, and all public record keeping should be done correctly...

    A Deeply Fractured US

    As @Halifax Tar pointed out a lot of that appears to be criminal on criminal, or Criminal on disadvantaged populations likely in regards to illicit narcotics. The homeless are often either addicts or partially recovering addicts of some type, and are preyed upon by criminal enterprise...

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    I think Canadian gun owners should see if 47 will give them refugee status as discriminatory policies of the Canadian government are causing y’all undo hardships and suffering, both financially and mentally.

    The War in Ukraine

    One wonders what the Russian pain point is. Clearly it isn’t combat losses, whether this is a national pride issue, or the locations/types of recruits isn’t clear. However with the significant punishment the Russia petroleum industry is taking, one wonders if this may be it. The...

    Anti-Tank Platoon or Anti-Tank Battery? - 24 Vertical Launch JAGMs on a WAPC

    I'd suggest part of that is that Tank Destroyers were used more defensively - where their armor wasn't exposure like it would have been on the assault. The second part was the M-18 Hellcat had a 76mm gun, which is hardly a slouch when the vast majority of Shermans still had the 75mm, and so the...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    Green Card Holders must have their card on them at all times, and show upon request to LE. Temporary Residents must show their visa and passport. On the LE side it is very common to ask about citizenship status and ask for proof, due to open carry firearms laws. Non Resident Aliens cannot...

    Anti-Tank Platoon or Anti-Tank Battery? - 24 Vertical Launch JAGMs on a WAPC

    ATGM's have better warheads and ranges. The Modern AT Gun is a missile, be it man pack, or mounted. Except unless you have sensor overmatch and an ability to mask your own forces - you need some degree of armor and protection systems - or significant stand off from the enemy detection range...
