    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    I believe it will handle Force Development for purple capabilities just as the "services" do their own FD. Just as force generating a fighter capability or a ground based long range strike capability is overseen by RCAF or CA FD organizations, now the FD for joint functions will not be ad hoc...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    I've long been a proponent of this. It's a Force Generator orphanage. We've got a few 2 and 3*s in Ottawa whose principal role is to manage the corporate side of the house - the VCDS is in some ways the COS of the CAF, while CMP is supposed to be in overwatch over military HR (ie. CAF J1) but...

    New Army Course - Advanced Land Power Studies

    Brigade G5s are generally filled by JCSP qualified majors. The concept is that AOC trains officers to operate as staff in Bde and Div HQs and to lead staff in Unit and Bde HQs while the new qualification will target select individuals to lead staff in Div and higher HQs. While the Manoeuvre...

    "Chariots on Fire" - IFV SOPs

    Yes, in general, because it's not a question of armour rating, as in close range anything can be destroyed, even a HAPC. So, the real answer is "depends on the threat" - when the principal threat to dismounts transitions from taking steady attrition from direct and indirect fires to dying in...

    World Series

    The Blue Jays beat themselves. If they would have run the bases properly in the bottom of the 9th, they would have beat the call at home. Poor decision making cost them the title. It's too bad, as they were generally the better team throughout the World Series.

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure

    It's still an infantry brigade. Three Rifle Coys and a Multipurpose Coy. The latter contains a recon pl, a mortar pl, an AT pl, and a drone platoon. We call the MPC "Cbt Sp Coy." The Multi-Functional Reconnaissance Coy is essentially a drone coy at the bde level. So, take an IBCT and add some...

    A Deeply Fractured US

    To understand Hegseth's approach to the SecDef (er...SecWar) job, you need to know the auspices under which the clearly political part-time soldier left the service. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/11/15/pete-hegseth-flagged-insider-threat-00189991...

    Ostrich Cull in BC, 2025

    Worth the read on the subject, since this is quickly becoming an ideological issue.

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

    What is meant by decisive? Except that's not what he used to make the inference FJAG referenced. Rather it was derived, in part, from the work of David Rowland and his team from DERA, who conducted a series of studies on battlefield effects based on the aggregate of 159 battles from the 20th...
