    Canadian River Class Destroyer Megathread

    He already has that with NSS. The gift that keeps giving. Fleecing the taxpayers since 2011. Build the 9 Hero’s. Get a bucket of money from N.S. to build new facilities. Build 6 AOPS over budget. Cry that they will lay off till CSC can be built. Given contract for 2 more AOPS for CCG. Demand...

    Navy to potentially create training ships on great lakes

    That can’t possibly still apply. Marinette Marine is building (Little Crappy Ships & Constellation) warships on Lake Michigan. During the war years both countries built loads of war ships on the Great Lakes and trained on the Great Lakes.

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

    Sad fact. CF-18 was ordered and began deliveries by P.E.T. government. 7 Prime Ministers later its replacement was ordered by his son. 8 Prime Ministers later the F-35 deliveries begin. Yeesh.

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

    We are also adding a capability that we never had of our own; AEW&C aircraft. Yes, we contributed to NATO’s E3 program.

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

    Just noticed I typed an incorrect number. We have 5 Polaris not 3. My dog likes to help sometimes. Apologies. Still we are getting twice the number of aircraft available for AAR or troop transport, plus they are higher capacity and will be able to support both types of AAR. Truly a win-win.

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

    In some areas we are getting larger numbers: 9 Huskies to replace 3 Polaris. 16 (possibly more) P-8 Poseidon to replace 14 Auroras, adding 11 of MQ9B Guardians. Helicopters , I’m not sure where that is headed. There’s a thread for that. The size of the F35 fleet was sized to NORAD and NATO...

    Because we won’t decide on a submarine until next year (summer earliest) , then negotiate a submarine purchase agreement & a maintenance contract. Once terms including payment schedules are established, then the government will include it in future budgets.

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

    So Ukraine gets screwed on delivery? This sounds a bit like TKMS saying they can supply us when they already have orders in the pipeline.

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

    Trudeau in 2015 vowed to scrap the F-35. There wasn’t an order with Harper just intent. Trudeau canceled nothing. They played this numbers game to delay buying anything. The numbers changed from 65 to 88. Talk of getting Super Hornets as an interim to bump the numbers. I think Boeing was...

    Canada should join the (nuclear) big leagues

    Had a similar thought. By nuclear deterrent my thought is the Vanguards, tridents, cruise missiles and fissile material inventories. Not the Astutes and Trafalgers.

    Replacing the Subs

    “As it makes the decision, the federal government will put a lot of weight on what kind of package each company can offer in terms of sustainment for the fleet of 12 submarines after they’re purchased. Fifty per cent of the company’s score will be in that category. According to the bid...
