Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

[Halifax Tar]

That is... unusual.

I suppose if you're going to spend $35 billion for actual proper ports and your current ships that sail through the Arctic don't actually need a refueling station in that location.

Money and effort better spent in other places makes sense.

Looking back at my enthusiasm for Nanisivik (with 20/20 hindsight) it was a "on the cheap" solution for a different time. Probably should have tempered my expectations. But on the other hand... that's boring. I like dreaming big!

Nanisivik was BER when I was in F4 LOGOPs planning HDWs initial navigation of the Artic.
