So to be clear, you're saying you have some minor issues with that document???

I don't think it would be a major stretch to re-organize the Reg Force to be set up like that: Mechanized Division - 12 RBC (Valcartier - Divisional Recce) 1 CMBG (Edmonton) LdSH (Edmonton - tank regiment) 1 PPCLI (Edmonton - LAV) 2 PPCLI (Shilo - LAV - reserve heavy) 3 PPCLI (Edmonton -...

Apparently the US is re-evaluating how it will use tanks in light of lessons learned from the war in Ukraine. https://www.armyrecognition.com/news/army-news/2025/exclusive-us-army-reevaluates-tank-warfare-strategy-amid-drone-threats A couple of interesting points from the article: This...

I think you're being a tad melodramatic here...how much of a "significant reconfiguration" is it to add the Signal App to the air phones?

It's not like there aren't know solutions to fixing/expanding the training system. Someone however at the top needs to make the difficult decision to tie up ships (even new ones) and cut back operational tempo in order to focus on training and recruiting for the next several years. Don't...

AW-101 has Link 16 as well

Presumably (hopefully!) our light forces would have Carl-G's and Javelins (or equivalents) available for use when required, but I'd agree with @Kirkhill and @FJAG that the cost (and availability) might make using them a less than optimal solution for some targets. I'd also agree with @KevinB...

Or maybe it's just a bad month for F/A-18's? https://defence-blog.com/finnish-f-a-18-fighter-jet-crashes-near-rovaniemi-airport/ Fortunately we've cleverly disguised ours as CF-188's so we should be safe!

It would appear that India's loss of one Rafale and one MiG-29 are confirmed - along with Pakistani use of Chinese-made PL-15 Air-to-Air missiles. https://defence-blog.com/wreckage-of-indian-mig-29-fighter-found-in-kashmir/...

Autonomous "Killing" faces lots of technical (and ethical) hurdles but autonomous "Hunting" should be a much lower bar to achieve. We have manned systems that are capable of engaging targets (of course we could always use more) so to my mind our focus should be on autonomous sensor nodes to...

More updates from CNN: If the claim of 3 x Rafales being shot down that's 10% of their current fleet of Rafales. ...maybe that F-35 order shouldn't be put on hold yet ;)

The latest updates from CNN:

Let's hope so, but Modi has said that India will stop its water from flowing over international borders. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cd9l9qwyv23o From the article: Doesn't sound very promising.

Was listening to the War on the Rocks podcast today and it had an interview with US Army Chief of Staff, Gen. Randy George and Secretary of the Army Daniel Driscoll. Not sure which one said it but part of the reasoning for pausing on the UGV program was the calculus of a $1 million vehicle that...

Two opinion pieces from the Naval Association of Canada website on what the MCDV replacement should look like. https://www.navalassoc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Santarpia-Corvettes.pdf https://www.navalassoc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Todd-Corvettes.pdf Definitely count me in the camp...
