Years ago on this blog there were similar complaints about the AOPS. I would have argued for the 57mm only so that there was commonality with Halifax class but I understand that the mk38 is suitable for constabulary duties plus reduced maintenance and ordnance cost.

Just reading about Trump rescuing Argentina after their president praised Trump. I can’t help but wonder if next time Carney meets Trump he should wear some Trump high tops and a limited edition of a Trump watch. And maybe tell tRump what beautiful improvements he is doing to the White House.

It would appear that the USA is taking the threat of foreign ships in their waters extremely serious, that they are taking measures to field them as quickly as possible. They recently converted the Aiviq for Coast guard duties after we turned it down. Using an old car analogy; they’re shifting...

It’s not quite clear but It appears that: 2 ships will be built by Helsinki Shipyard based upon a ship they have built for past customers and that Davie will build 3 of the same in their newly acquired US yard. 2 ships will be built by Rauma in Finland based upon a Seaspan/Aker design and...

And from Cdr Sal: Davie & Bollinger will build new icebreakers. Looks like Davies recent acquisitions are paying off...

The author never heard of Polestar, Rivian or Lucid.? They all started after Tesla. Not sure if Lucid is going to survive as they are bleeding money badly.

Agreed. Trump made it clear in his meeting with Carney that he isn’t going to allow any Canadian built car in. GM has already announced they are pulling part of the Silverado production from Oshawa. Just to clarify, there are 5 foreign car manufacturers in Canada: 2 American, 1 Italian, 2...

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not. No phone (even landlines ) is safe in SCIF especially Huawei. Bell and Rogers both have Huawei telephone switches. Justin was supposed to ban Huawei but backed off after the 2 Michael’s were imprisoned by China. Huawei destroyed Nortel, the crown...

Given how little info is public, the SK proposal looks superior on delivery but Germany looks superior in regards to stealth. The 212CD delivery schedule may be a major issue. I may be way off base with this but, the negative with Hanwha is that they have tied themselves to Babcock. Our Vic’s...

I like that but they can’t keep up with the Hornets. So rip out the ejection seats and install equipment to fly as a drone, add a pair of bombs to the belly hard points and give to Ukraine.

I was under the impression that RCAF was having trouble attracting and keeping CF-18 pilots. Our 18’s are probably viewed as antiquated

The general public sees Snowbirds impressive flying in a Volkswagen Beatle vs the Blue Angels in loud and fast Scat Cats.

I am going to show my age. I watched them fly Tutors when the team was called the Golden Centennaires.

Some might believe the Snowbirds are a useful recruiting tool. I’m not sure how that could be when they’re flying antique trainers while we see USAF & USN demonstration teams flying F-16’s and F-18’s.

Yes, it is in production but no production aircraft have been delivered. 1st is expected in December. Max speed according to Boeing is .975M; transonic is still subsonic. Boeing may be planning to sell USAF F-7 but I highly doubt there is any one in the Pentagon wanting it .

Still not in production. And is subsonic. Not rated for weapons carriage.

Guaranteed to add 5 years to delivery of 1st hull and each one after that will be every 2 years or more at triple the cost.

I constantly see people crossing the road or driving glued to the phone.
