CAF Security Forces [Split from RCN Anti Drone Weapon]

[SupersonicMax]

Sure. Just like half the public who apply to the CAF. I see no difference.


Yah patrols. If there is a security breach on the base you call MPs. No difference in operations except now the RCAF Security does the initial detainment and hands them over to the MPs. Or shoots them*

*Case by case basis

Sure. The MPs response is always that they’ll prioritize a policing call over a base security call. Not quite acceptable from a force protection point of view. The current system is jacked and unless MPs re-prioritize force protection over issuing tickets, the current Force Protection concept needs to change.

The RCAF conducts operations (in the actual sense) from their Wings on a day-to-day basis.

Or would it just be more cost effective and simpler to house the aircraft at close to the border US bases?

Honestly, does anyone really think our training system can pump out enough trained personal to staff this, or have enough housing at our locations for the influx?

We probably will have no coming up with the doctrine, but coming up with physical?
I dont see it....

I’ll also respectfully suggest that a real threat to the sorts of assets we’re talking about is likely to be a more planned and deliberate threat. One that may well exceed the ability of one or two MPs acting on no notice to deal with.

Security and policing are distinct. The security task for the sensitive assets being procured isn’t something that should be subject to dual hatting, at least not at the inner perimeter to the actual high security areas. Those should be dedicated elements trained and equipped for The Really Bad Day- enough so that, domestically, nobody will be stupid enough to try it, and when deployed, anyone trying it would be really stupid.
