Well no one should be shocked here. https://abcnews.com/International/leipzig-airport-drone-linked-russian-military-intelligence-us/story?id=135945223

https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/9.7321847 Some thought down here is that Canada took issue with some of the language on external trade deals wrt strategic minerals and foreign ownership. Best guess is that it was perhaps a clumsy way to say we can’t have China involved in some things...

The USMC Squad has been in a near constant state of flux for the past decade. It is already very large, and has been shift back and forth from 13-17 Marines. I do not see the logic in pushing a 20km system down below the Company Wpns Platoon. In an extremely dispersed environment, one...

TBH the dash/instrument panel on the Patria is clearly purpose built. One suspects that shortly it will become practical for Roshel to go that route as well / mainly to be able to incorporate various features on the displays there, and not have a lot of clunky crap in the center. The...

Imagine my surprise…

Idiocracy: the unfortunate documentary

He lost his ‘deniable’ with the admissions that then Wagner was a defacto arm of the Russian state. Regardless of it’s called Redut or not, it’s a wing of VDV 45th Guards Spetsnaz Reconnaissance Brigade. No one really believes those soldiers are ‘on leave’. Short of quickly throwing a slew...

Local LE ERT can kinetically terminate those types of folks. You’re requiring now some sort of GPS enabled system. That is a tad more complicated than the original threat of a quadcopter using VFR. There are many potential threats — the folks who have the capability/ability and desire to...

I think Trump 45 had some very capable people around him. Trump 47 seems to value loyalty over competence, with all the intelligence long gone ,and I think we are all suffering from that.

If you want them to be effective, then they need to be relatively near, solely due to latency. The bandwidth requirements for large scale applications is significant.

I suspect if you ran a business like this it might go bankrupt… Oh wait, he did. The fact he ran on cutting prices, and everything here is going up (albeit in VA a lot of that is also due to our Democratic Governor also being about as economically intelligent as our President ).

Unlikely, global society revolves around travel, and air is the fastest means of travel. Air travel has weathered the hijackings of the 70-80’s, the bombings of the 90’s and 9/11. Any state supported terrorism against aircraft tends to results in the targeting of the leaders of that regime...

If Canada wanted to be truly independent from US tech in that respect that Aircraft is the only option that is available from a friendly allied nation. I still hope that some sanity can be restored, on both sides of the border.

Oh well unfortunately it got a US engine and some other stuff that could make it a no/go He’s advocating economic suicide between two long term partners. While I think everyone can agree that Canada freeloaded for decades, it is hard to rationalize his current stance on Canadian trade (and...

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...

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.

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

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...
