"no matter" missed the edit time limit

It's still the Davies family not matter how they label it.

From some photos I've seen some fuel tanks, with a built in pump, are built into a frame which is the same dimensions and attachment points as seacans. Wouldn't this allow for a truck to drop it at a refueling point then return to get a second which would be dropped at the same point. They could...

How many fuel trucks are needed to support a Leopard 2 brigade?

How are the Leo's refueled? The same manner would apply to the Abrams would it not? Different fuel (or not?) but same logistics vehicles.

The Abrams X will have a hybrid diesel electric. I can't find any other with a diesel.

Was there not a trial to remove the Turbine and install a diesel in the Abrams? Or is it wishful thinking? Nevermind I see the answer above. Too slow on the draw

And yet, Egypt, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Australia, Poland and Iraq have found the ways and means to operate the Abrams.

If Canada had M1A2s then Lima is a mere 260kms south of Windsor.

Sweden and the Netherlands would likely welcome partners/customers to join their development of an extended range submarine Oceanic project. It's a long shot but this may be the best opportunity to integrate a Slowpoke reactor with the Swedish Sterling power plant.

MQ-9B sea guardian variant

No doubt for short runs but I believe it's more about distance and what the road and higher speed friction does to the tracks/pads. (unless it's a long slow drive into Baghdad) you might save yourself some maintenance downtime via transport

Just one added note: if there's any longer distance to cover the Archer is self deployable while the M1299/M109 requires a tank transport.

I may have judged the LAV/Archer as a no go too hastily. The Boxer RCH 155 has the same 52 caliber barrel so in theory if it fits on a boxer an Archer should fit on a LAV? Plus I believe the Archer sits further back and relies on outriggers as opposed to the RCH/boxer suspension when firing

After some research the length of the Archer would likely make it impossible to install on a LAV body, LAV approx 7.5m, Archer is over 14m, so scrap this idea.

Not sure if this was discussed. The Kongsberg RWS that is slated for the ACSV also has an option for a bolt on Anti Tank missile. Kongsberg RWS for Can Is this the same RWS that is on the TAPV?

Implementing in real world conflict

Correct. Politicians, CAF leadership, and bureaucracy are the limiting factor. Not the general Canadian population. If you want the population educated then there has never been more opportunity to use the vast variety of media, social and semi mainstream, to educate. You don't need an official...

Maybe I'm thinking too much but..o_O In the unlikely scenario where an aggressor decides they need to invade and take some land in the far north I imagine their priority would be somewhere with an airfield to accommodate their follow on airlift. This is ironically where our own lack of...
