Canada's tanks

[FJAG]

Production of AMPV was reduced at request of US DoD. Im sure the manufacturer would love to have a FMS take up the slack....but I thought the Canadian Army was done with tracked vehicles?

Hey. They've recently rediscovered mobilization and artillery as concepts - tracks to help the Leo2 can't be far behind.

I mean the AMPV is required to replace the donated or scrapped M113’s, it’s not like it was adopted in a vacuum.

The brain power in our current administration is less than inspiring.

Yes I keep forgetting them - probably intentionally . The KM merger with the French left me less excited for them.

The French make some really cool stuff. Since the med cav vehicles seem to be destined for wheeled brigades I think it would make sense for something like Jaguar. That thing is cool as fuck.

Personally Id like to see Jaguar for LAV bdes and CV9035 as IFVs and as bde/div recce in the tank bde.

A lot of French light armour was designed with Africa in mind. Long distances with minimal logistical support.

Which wars do you want to fight?

How about crossing a Jaguar with a TRACKX?
