JTLV is a complete non-starter for non-SOF. Imagine the explosion in the media if an American-made platform when a Canadian alternative (ie Senator) exists. What puzzles me is why they havent pulled the trigger on Senator yet, its obvious Roshel is the heir apparent, its made in Canada...
The talk around town is that a sizable minority of them will be redistributed to ARes Armoured units as is - what a terrible idea. We already dont have the infrastructure or support for 4-6 TAPVs, I dont know how we're supposed to properly store and maintain them when units have 10-15 TAPVs...
I really dont know if the upgrade juice is worth the squeeze. Id rather see these turned over to Global Affairs to donate as they see to build diplomatic clout than to spend more money polishing a turd. Lets identify the capability (light cav, RAS, convoy duties, whatever) and then tailor a...
100%. It rolls for experienced drivers too. The sway in a crosswind is noticeable and scary af lol.
Youre probably not wrong. I wonder if they intend to install RWS on some of the Senators when they inevitably win? A single mount with a 50 would be nice.
Neat - but not relevant to the discussion.
I dont. I think we're following along with the remainder of the American aligned middle powers and not touching this with a ten foot pole, good. The IRGC declared the RCN a terrorist organization, do we want to put our boys anywhere in range of those...
Irrelevant. If a government is unwilling to use that military capability in any circumstance, including the collapse of a 20 year stabilization effort or to prevent the attack of merchant shipping by irregulars then whats the point of having it? War is just politics by other means, policy...
We said that plenty about the Taliban too but you guys still did Saigon Airlift 2: Electric Boogaloo. Heck, in the region the US had to reach a deal with the Houthis. Its proving incredibly hard to go on the offensive with motivated adversaries on the defensive, regardless of technological...
Per the Turkish version of CBC. The Americans may have began attacks on energy and water infrastructure despite Trump's tweets. Grain of salt alert - Im unsure abouth the reliability of AA. Ive also seen videos coming out on social media purporting to show these attacks in Ishafan...
A little thread necromancy but wanted to put this here both because its funny but also - at what point do we we cut our losses with these tippy, broken lemons, give what runs to the Ukrainians or Haiti or whatever and start from scratch?
