    Canada's tanks

    I've driven past that facility in Lima, OH. My daughter had an offer to play soccer from a uni close to there. When I worked in Michigan (Warren), I worked just up the road from this place and I would drive by it daily. They closed production the year I left Michigan for Boston. Move all the...

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

    Just to help me understand this 'dual fleet' argument in terms of what looks like is on the horizon for the rotary arm of the RCAF where there looks to be 3 separate helo's on the ask - 1 for SOF's, 1 for tactical lift and then another to be 'dual' use for ASW with the RCN and for...

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

    Not sure how to answer that. One argument could be that the heads of the Army/Navy are seeing what the future is, what the current environment is, and they are aggressively moving towards it and addressing what they can. Another argument could be that the heads of the Army/Navy see a chance to...

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

    Why do we believe that the number of 88 F35's, or fighters in general, that was stated as our end point in Jan of 2023, will still be the number of fighters that Canada will need under the current situation that we are now in? The number of ships/subs for the RCN is going up from what was...

    A Deeply Fractured US

    I'm not going to the Olympics in Italy and frankly I don't care who the Americans send over to deal with their own people. Just don't come around any Canadians, we'll police our own. Lastly, its the Italians, the general population, that they've need to make happy. :D

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    Interesting idea about stationing F35's there. Keflavik was used by the US until the early 2000's. What about stationing a few of our P8's out of there? Add them to the F35's. Someone had talked about a Naval Station out of Nuuk, would Iceland instead make any sense? Could there be a case...

    At what point does the argument come up that Iceland needs to acquire some more 'robust' naval ships?

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    EDIT: The Danes also look to have another warship off the north-west coast of Iceland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMS_Thetis_(F357) And another off the Faroe Islands. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMS_Iver_Huitfeldt_(F361)

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    Looking at Marine Traffic info, the Danes currently have 3 naval ships docked in Nuuk, 1) Ejnar Mikkelsen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMS_Ejnar_Mikkelsen 2) Knud Rasmussen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knud_Rasmussen-class_patrol_vessel 3) Vaedderren...

    Replacing the Subs

    Ask yourself the number 1 reason why the SK’s made the decision a decade or two ago to build out their arms industry? It’s because they felt that the US didn’t appreciate them and was taking advantage of them by overcharging them for US arms and controlling them as a result. So, can they relate...
