Figured I would put new life in an old thread.  Was on the FELEX PMO site and there is a bit of new and updated info people might find interesting.  Included is a copy of the presentation given to industry officials on what needs to be done.  Just thought it would intrest some of you. :salute...

Sorry to highjack this but on the topic of .50cals and rust.  Just had a brain wave.  As an ET we commonly get parts (motor's controllers ect) which come with large baggies full of moisture absorbing material.  Kind of like the little bags that come in IMP's and shoe boxes that say "do not eat"...

The F.A.G. (Film Actors Guild) will save the world!!! @%#& YEAH!  ;D  Jimmy Buffet is going after the seal hunt now too.  The Natives just see millions of dollars going off they're land and don't think they get enough in return.  Boo Hoo!! read the frigg'n contract fokes.  You would think they...

The new time slot really sucks  :P  All of us east coasters have to wait till 11:00 on a sunday to watch!! that's crap!!  :threat:  I like my Saturday time slot.  10:00 was pushing it 11:00 is just wrong...

We are looking at 10 yrs here.  Does anyone think UAV technology could come to a level where it can really provide support to maned fighters??  To become an extention of there operational capability.  If you have a aircraft with attack capabilities (speed, firepower, ect) with the ability to...

I think if they were to buy only 80 they would try and justify less maned Airframes for more UAV technology.  If you have UAV's as Recon (even attack in a pinch) and couple that to smart weapons on a stealth maned Aircraft then you would not necessarily need to replace the CF-18 one for one. ...

Do the block and NDP have the power to pull this off without the liberals??  I thought the Block only had 51 and the NDP around 29??  They still need some red to topple the Conservatives right???  Duceppe is just upset that Harper pulled off the whole nation thing :) :cdn:

After seeing who was selected and seeing their sites info I'm really excited.  I'm hopping Shield gets it just because they have been building on the same hulls for awhile now and they seem keen on Pod drives for propulsion.  Being an electrician means the boat will be more focused on our...

So Irving is not in this?? Kind of pleasantly surprised. :cdn:

Its really more for fun than realism.  You do need to think about tactics and the career progression of your sailors though.  In some of the big battles if your a small ship you just can go blasting away into the middle of the other fleet and hope to get ahead.  You get more points and credits...

If they put a Armoured game in this format it would rock.  Start in light armour and work up to heavy King Tigers.  Add line of sight rules and terrain situations it would be awesome.  It would have a close combat feel without the infantry. On a side note anyone in here play in Navyfield let me...

I stumbled across this game indirectly one day last weekend and was pleasantly surprised.  Its called navyfield and it can be played for free or the super computer geeks can pay to move up quickly.  Its a WWII naval combat simulator topdown perspective.  You get to build ships starting with...

If this gets the go ahead maybe we can get approval to right off the two old steamers at NED in Dartmouth.  It think at least one of the O boats hasn't been spoken for too.  The east coast could benefit from an ex like this too.  It would be nice to put some holes in them with the different guns...

There is no reason CHofO and GGFG couldn't pull this off.  The guards have the man power 6 months a year to pull it off reliably and this could be supplemented by CHofO.  If you could tell collage and university students they could get a half days pay for evenings through the school year they...

What if the last few Cylon models followed the 13th tribe to Earth??  Hence the whole one true God concept.  We all bread into the Cylons so that means we're all really Cylons and don't know it!!!  Dun Dun DUN... Just a thought... :warstory:

Past life R031 Camron Highlanders of Ottawa (I miss those guys). Now MAREL soon to be E-TECH still loving it. Cheers.... :cdn:

was it naturally formed???

I'm not suggesting we send navy people into the heat of combat but there are people within the navy that can preform tasks to relieve the work load put on our well trained combat troops in theater and allow them get out after the bad guys.  Of the hundreds of people who have re mustered from...

Listening to Scott Taylor on CBC tonight on the way home.  It sounds like they are trying to bump infentry out of training positions, desk jobs, etc first.  It would not be beound the scope of things for them work out the logistics of us getting trained to do things filled by our well trained...

In the Chronicle Herald on Saturday.  http://www.herald.ns.ca/Search/535722.html It seems they really are desperate for bodies.  Wont be the first time they have used us as infantry.  My MS got pulled off the tanker back in the 90's in Somalia handed a weapon and was used for convoy...
