    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    Fastest way into a new ‘car". In terms of annual production and availability ARO: *assuming on doesn’t want a Chinese J-10C :cautious: 1)Lockheed Martin F-16V Block 70/72 2) Boeing F-15EX Eagle II 3) Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet Unfortunately all American made so that doesn’t really make...

    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    He’s targeting Canada, because apparently your just like China :rolleyes: I used to worry about JD Vance and what would happen if the 25th Amendment got implemented. Now I figure it can’t really get worse. Come on Section 4, don’t let us down.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    I chose to believe he is the Manchurian Candidate - destroying the US and NATO, while strengthening our enemies.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    1 Bde would be an ‘Armoured’ Bde, the others being not, I don’t think it’s surprising that the resultant support structure (inc combat support) be different. Ideally the Infantry in 1 Bde would be in a tracked IFV as well. But Canada being Canada will likely retain LAV for that role. The LIR...

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    For the most part the GoC has been fine with that for years, as the ‘splash zone’ has been fairly unpopulated. Landing in any populated area of Canada will cause significant American casualties.

    Russia in the 21st Century [Superthread]

    I mean the GRU sends its people everywhere. The Diplomatic cover folks generally are there to draw attention away from the ones there illegally and doing all sorts of bad things. For years Russia claimed the little green men had no affiliation to Russia and that when some showed up...

    Self Defence in Canada (split from Gun Control 2.0)

    Coming back to this. Technically regardless of Castle Law state or not, any round that strikes a third party one would/should be liable for. Now as far as the State goes, that may or may it be the case due to the County. However the possibility is if one isn’t charged by the State, the...

    Self Defence in Canada (split from Gun Control 2.0)

    Depends on the neighbor ;) Most Castle Law states allow for it as long as they are still on your property.

    Multi Role Boats (and other small boats thread).

    Well to keep Chalk River at bay, they need at least SHORAD and tactical nuclear delivery capability. :sneaky:

    Political impacts of Ukraine war

    Unfortunately by the time Western Military and Political powers get into rhythm, Russia is usually already onto 3-4 different other nefarious Grey Zone operations.

    2026 US-Denmark Tensions/End of NATO

    At the end of the day, the side that can gather more information, process it quicker, and act on it faster, will be able to shape the battle.

    Political impacts of Ukraine war

    In this instance NATO as a collective (as well as individual European member states) have AEWACC and individual members have AD Radar Nets and AD systems, as well as Alert Aircraft dedicated for NATO and domestic patrol. Militarily the kill chain was shortened. Politically there is now the...

    Political impacts of Ukraine war

    Ability has always existed. Willingness has not.

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    No longer a direct threat, but still a potential threat. The onus is on you to articulate why your continued use of force was justifiable. As far as you can articulate a reasonable reason. Down here lethal force can be used on a fleeing felon.

    Multi Role Boats (and other small boats thread).

    I think he’s planning on a dismountable contingent on them.

    Multi Role Boats (and other small boats thread).

    I’d argue the threat assessment requires other GoC assets, mainly the RCMP and CSIS, as well as Allied IC. The CAF can formulate based on those assessments, but is realistically not setup to make informed decisions without outside assistance as to what threats exists to Canada and their...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    Some countries are in better positions than in others. Some countries also seem to have a clearer vision of the goal than others. Data: acquisition, transfer, storage, safeguarding, analysis, prioritization and distribution is significantly more important than a lot of people believe.

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    I will disagree on Brandishing as there are multiple definitions and none a defined criminal offense (even in Canada :cool: ) Simple possession doesn’t by itself imply threat or intent. Now pointing it at someone, yeah that’s a bingo. Clearly one’s actions with it can be interpreted as...

    LAV 6.0

    I generally agree. Most vehicles these days (or at least combat vehicles) are being designed with the plan of some form of additional armor to be added as theatre specific protection. Some have done it well, and others have not. Interestingly enough GDLS manages to be on both extreme...
