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

    Lots of critcal parts are hard to acquire for the F18 legacy jets. As the US military did not retire their legacy jets like they said they were going to. This put a strain on the available critical parts that already had a shortage due to replacement availability and lack of support for upgrades...

    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    I am pretty certain that GDLS Canada is a stand alone market from US systems, for manufacturing and providing systems for Canada and partners. The make up of GDLS Canada was through amalgamation of various Canadian Companies/ plants to form the core of GDLS Canada. If the US shut down GDLS...

    Replacing the Subs

    It would not be bad for any European country to set up a repair facility for their subs and ships in Canada. So having France and or Germany wanting our business would not be a surprise. With the amount of equipment we need to purchase overall I can see larger bid from Europe and or SK. Time...

    The War in Ukraine

    The costs of production are already known, the cost of expansion are already known. Not a lot of room for them to expand and line their pockets at this point. Had they of 7 years ago started to expand our production they could have hidden costs and pocketed the extra. But war time production is...

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    A few of you have hit the nail on the head, it needs a few more whacks. But Our Military needs a purpose and avenues to show that purpose. This trip down to the Antarctic is a once in a life time trip for our Sailors, going forward may become as familiar as San Francisco, Puerto Vallarta use...

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

    I think it has more to do with the actual production commitments and not humming and haaaing of actual contracts. Canada has public funded defense companies. Who still fail to produce a product on time and close to an actual budget. Even though they eat through money like nobodies paying the...

    the liberals/ndp/bloc never think there is a long term case for business if they cant directly line their pockets with cash.

    The War in Ukraine

    Funny you should say that,. Canada can ramp up artillery shell capacity. Could start up manufacturing of Artillery equipment. The question should be why have we not done so? I would guess it is due to GD-OTS Canada and GDLS/ Canadian gov and their contract restrictions then anything else...

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

    They have a better control of their system. We have to jump through to many levels of approval to get a simple order made. Then we have to jump through many other levels just to find a builder/ supplier. Then many other levels to approve the buy. Often the contract needs to include a central...

    RCMP White paper

    The RCMP tells the provinces they are getting out of Municipal/Provincial Policing by 2032. Provinces and Municipalities start the process to transition over to local Police Force. RCMP go on a large campaign to keep the RCMP. White paper released RCMP to get out of Municipal/ Provincial...

    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    I agree to a point. Command at all levels need to oppose orders that are Unlawful. Especially at the Joints Chief of Staff Command. What we are seeing is Trump saying terms like national security and such when talking about trade with Canada. That worries me a great deal. It's called...

    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    I would like to think the United States Military would have more discipline then to attack a long standing alley. Especially one with such close ties. We would not need Senetors to create a level of chaos unseen in our life time. But it would give us some equipment for military to waste their...

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

    Anything I ever post is open source information. More people then you know or think have access to close source things. Not every close source is Top Secret. Work groups tend to do those things. As does industry who are involved in over all processes. A simple example is a materials company...

    lol, open source is pretty telling themselves. Closed source actually details with great accuracy of the problems. Some may never be fixed. engine issues are not block problems. speed restrictions are not block problems. sensors fusion are not block problems. operating systems are not block...

    LOL I expect you to name call it seems to be a regular content yourself and supporters. I will prepare myself for the onslaught of negative comments coming form others. I will shed a tear that you had enough thought to do so. Yes, the F35 was promised to be able to perform better then it did...
