Except our adversaries are not stupid, they will test your drone defenses with hobby drones, determine that route is not an option. Rent a truck, pack it with fertilizer and ram it through the gate, or better yet disguise it as a mundane delivery. So you still need the meathead at the gate, a...

Not suggesting this tank for us, but a interesting look how tank manufactures are trying to address a changing battlefield.

Yes they should, but their army is less than spectacular and led generally by cowards. If the west buttressed the Yemen government forces, likley they could take back the lost coastal areas and push up to Hodeidah. I suspect the Houthi's are stretching their forces and logistics to capture these...

The Houthis are quite brutal on dissent withing their territory and operate under one flag, even if there are old tribal and political divisions. The same cannot be said to the opposing forces aligned with the Yemen government. A little on the forces guarding the coast against the Houthi's By...

Plus the CPC might not fight to hard on defense procurement stuff.

If the Red sea is closed to shipping, Egypt loses out on canal fees, which is a good chunk of their GDP, the Houthi cannot be trusted to honour much in the way of any agreements, as for what they want is "Death to America, Israel and KSA", not always in that order. From Permin Island, it's 19km...

One project might include a dozen different contracts, perhaps one for project planning, another environmental impact, another asbestos removal, another for HVAC, and one for actual construction.

At some point they may not have a choice. This advance by the Houthi if not overturned is going to be very, very bad news for international shipping. Better to respond sooner than later, so they don't have a chance to consolidate.

If the Houthi's are able to consolidate their hold on Mocha and Perim island, then I can see the use of US ground forces and other countries landing and seizing it back and being used to buttress the local forces.

Working with a road engineer for Canfor, he said they saw real longterm savings with the changes made under the Forest Practice Code in regards to main FSR's. The reduction in road and bridge failures easily paid for the higher upfront costs.

On the road to Gingox just south of the Nass River and 10km due east from Laxgalts'ap

15 tankers a month from LNGCanada

It's certainly an ambitious platform, not sure how some ideas are going to gel with others?

Ha this is Canada, you get one UAV per vehicle, 1 spare motor and set of spare blades. As wear and tear sets in, you are restricted to flying it for 4 hrs a day in one hour sets. Then the RCAF tells you you must submit a flight plan for each flight, despite the fact that it is tethered....

Haven't had a chance to listen to this podcast on LPG trade with Asia, but thought it might interest some people here https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/canadas-growing-lpg-trade-with-asia-a-conversation-with-vern-yu/

We used to combine reviews with the BC government review process when we operated under CEAA, there were a few pieces that we had to do separately to meet legal requirements, but the goal was to remove any duplicate work for the agencies, proponent and stakeholders/FN's. Generally successful in...

I will give CBSA credit for not trying to hide their stupidity in the ATIP. Unlike the RCMP who on the same file redacted most of it and stymied the release of the ATIP.

None of this helped by the proxy spate that KSA and UAE had some 6 months ago, where UAE proxies tried to impose their will onto KSA proxies and KSA bombing newly supplied AFV destined for UAE proxies on the docks. The anti-Houthi forces are likley bigger and better armed than the Houthi's, but...

Reading through an ATIP about CBSA seizing my friends shipment of semi-automatic rifles, they had setup a dog and pony show with everything laid out (several hundred guns and bits and pieces) for the press and 1 hour before the press conference, someones asks; "Did he have all the correct...

Remembering gather in our Regional Directors Office in our downtown office building to watch what was happening on his TV, at the same time regularly glancing out the window watching for any odd acting airliners.
