How many hundred miles do you need to move in combat?

This many?
On the other hand, how long does it take to burn up a tank of diesel even if you are just jockeying your tank around the same paddock in defence?

A few hundred KM is easily done with tracks or wheeled AFV's
Admin moves are however best done via lowbed
Depends on the tank - turbine engines will be burning a tank every 4-6 hours regardless if in idle or flank speed.

Correct. We could take the 113s from Winnipeg to Shilo quite easily. We would low bed the 577s and the TOW carriers.

In the CP140 replace thread there is an ongoing bet about what is will be replaced and amount.
Stealing that thread idea. There is a piece stating (can't be posted) that the Gov will be using UOR's to get both

Sorry another piece called it PAXM Portable Anti Material Missile. So my guess a multiple warhead or warshot system. anti tank and anti light vehicle or bunker type system. AT-4?What is a Portable "Anti-X Missile systems"

You can't just go to Costco to pick up AD systems. Timelines are long, particularly when we are one of many nations all scrambling for the same materiel at the same time.

I've been wondering if this is the solution - brought to you by the people that brought you Blowpipe, Javelin and Starstreak.
Martlet - 13 kg, 8 km, Mach 1.5 (Slower than Starstreak)
It can be a SAM or an AGM. It can take out Helos, UAS, boats, LAVs and utility vehicles.
It can be Manpad, LML, Stormer, Helo, UAS , Ship or Boat mounted.

Im I wrong in the statement that "contract award" does not equal "initial delivery"? and that therfore an an earlier contract award would shorten the timeline by at least speaking for our spot in line among said scrambling nations?

Before contract award, you examine the market, discuss with vendors, get the plan lined up.

OK,
Here's my bet.
Divest remaining M777 to Ukraine.
Purchase 40x HIMARS
Purchase 40x Archer
Split up in inadequate amounts between various units in Canada to provide overstretched maintenance, and understretched training capability.
C-3's will get hung onto as saluting guns only.

I don’t think the Ukraine wants them.
Most opt for a 2:1 Tube to Rocket ratio at Div Arty and below. Corps Arty is usually 1:1
Probably wouldn’t get ammo trucks for them anyway.
A CA SOP.
I still think the 9lb’er does a better job and is significantly classier. (Albeit awkward to move as you need a 3 or 5t with lift ramp).
