That's the one!

Is the towed component useful for route surveys and detailed charting?

Is this something where radars and whatever else is "eyes" on (EW systems to detect control signals?) need to be working at a much finer resolution than previously, with enough discernment* to distinguish a raven from a quadcopter or little prop job? * ML-driven pattern work, maybe, though...

Those are the least-weird weird hats available in the Army... and at least there's a brim, unlike the inexplicably not-weird felt skullcap.

DJT: "Hey, you parasitic Eurotrash, wokists with a too-pretty PM, Ukronazis, and all other leeches, take charge of your own defence! America won't be taken advantage of, you should do more for yourselves... wibble wibble wibble sleaze" ... DJT: "Wait, not like that!"

That too, especially if you feel that NWOs require enrichment activities. Not inaccessible by any means, but certainly well-supplied with features of interest.

Nation-building (subset: anywhere other than Upper & Lower Canada) suggestion: Crofton BC for a Korean armour plant. Other former mill towns available if desired.

Continue to be amazed that the dread US MiC, offered the first real new opportunity to sell bags and heaps and stacks of expensive kit they've had for years, hasn't been able to convince (bribe) the US government into enthusiastic support for Ukraine. "How many oil refineries, tank depots and...

Do they currently act as trainers for the ship's NBPs?

Thanks! Wasn't sure if it was an attempt at lightweight "spades." Vaguely remember seeing a set-and-drive-down anchor system somewhat like that described for (no idea, brain like a sieve) ag or logging. One of those hillbilly extempore things that works great until the welds or the ground let go!

Are those a testing safety item, or some sort of plow anchor?

Not sure that endurance or range (setting drones aside) improved with the Auroras. Certainly able to "see" more in whatever patch of ocean it's flying over, of course, but did coverage get so much better with the Auroras as to negate the smaller numbers?

To bat that around, bundle a bunch of "jet, but not F-35" roles, and you might actually be able to get rid of some fleets and contracts in a way that provides depth should things go sideways. An armed Skyraiderish prop trainer/COIN/etc. bird, a jet trainer/demo/"not bleeding edge missions"/etc...

Isn't it also a case where there's not really any capacity left open for something that size on BCF's timelines?

5 days suggests a multi-intake recurring evolution; both all at once and two weekends, one of them long, run repeatedly over the year.

Good news! We've provided everyone with a cellphone and an internet connection an interlocutor once available only to the most rarefied levels of society: the Obsequious Courtier. My gig is awash in tech specs and equipment manuals. Few things annoy me more than Adobe offering to summarize...

What sort of capacity would you need to make this work?

Seems to be tasked to GSAR support, though. From my time with Cowichan SAR I remember a medevac (wherein a firefighter with the subject got their arm broken by flying crap) and a Buffalo dropping flares for a night search, and think there were a couple more.

It sort of does, if DMob opened the cabinet marked "mobilization," discovered the most recent item was a note saying "requires rewrite - ALLARD" and then told their staff to just go to town with the wild ideas. Why there's leaks, though...
