I'm not by any means a tank expert, but I'll throw my own 2 cents in. I like the CASR idea of turning it into an urban fighter, we could maintain a dedicated urban warfare tank unit, with the rest of our heavy armour being new Leos (assuming we bought a full set of new tanks). Again, I'm not...

Good to hear this station is finally silenced, but I want to throw my own 2 cents into the debate. I do not believe IEDs to be cowardly weapons. The manner in which they are used to murder innocent men, women, and children is cowardly. The people who commit such actions are cowardly. However...

Yes, even clerks do BMQ, and SQ. My section commander on BMQ/SQ was a clerk, he was pinned down for four hours by croation troops. Even the non-combat arms people get shot at.

Just a random little rant my buddy showed me that I thought might brighten your day, http://www.pointlesswasteoftime.com/games/wargames.html

I'm a systems and computing student at U of G, and I've had a good interest in Robotics and unmanned systems for a couple years now (the reason I'm in this program). While I'm not by any means an expert, I don't think that in ten to twenty years it would be difficult to make a dedicated air...

Looks like a good read, and ironically enough I saw it for sale at indigo last night and picked up a copy (hadn't heard about it then, but it looked good). I can't wait to read it.

Helps answer the question, doesn't help inspire confidence in issue kit. I take it you got a new chest rig, what kind do you use, all I know from browsing around is modular is best and I read that Blackhawk products are good, and that Denali vest I saw the pic of looked good if only because it...

First off, a little background, I'm 18, uni student, and joined the reserves at 16. My family wasn't particularly happy, and god forbid I mention the words 'Afghanistan', 'overseas', or 'deploy'. Now, my parents weren't too bad, they were proud to be sure, but I'm confident that they were still...

I know the Americans have a bunch of ground based combat robots (not sure if they're dedicated for combat, but they come with machine guns and all the necessary 360 degree sighting and targeting systems). I also read an article in the paper about a new robot (it doesnt move, so you could call it...
