Need a date please, time as well if that date has been choosen

 

[HavokFour]

I was wondering if an announcement of us licensing the Mogami class to be at home might come out of his meeting in Japan. Long shot I know.

Space stuff, including the UK. Perhaps a sign of further GCAP involvement?

July 7-8 at the NATO summit

 

[KevinB]

July 7-8 at the NATO summit

I think the NATO summit will be ground systems, and F-35 decision -- then the oil on the water for the Subs later...

Since 7 July has been chosen, I'm putting you down for 8 July, unless you can provide a time for the 7th.

I was guessing that the F35 decision would occur 12-14 days later at Farnborough.

Very few folks want information releases at a show like Farnborough as it tends to get lost in the crowd -- while the GoC may want that, manufacturers don’t, and generally neither do journalists, and will often try to work with Defense Officials to find a mutually acceptable time to release.

Koreans, and Mogami? Na Izumo class "helicopter deatroyer" cough carrier*cough*

Are you starting a rumour about the RCN getting carriers?

 

[KevinB]

Never happen, the only people who hate the very concept of Naval air power more then the Airforce is the Navy.

Santa seems to have put the CF on the nice list for the time being. If there was a time to dream boldly it’s now. As my eldest daughter used to say when she asked for something ridiculous, “it doesn’t hurt to ask, you can say no.” But I agree it’s as likely to happen as my winning the lottery.

I'll play:
July 9 - following NATO summit
Korea gets:

• 12- subs
• LNG agreement, Critical mineral (aligning with National infrastructure announcements in north)
• K9 and K10 purchase

Germany gets tank fleet purchase announced - 250 Lepoard A8

• purchase option for both LNG and oil exports. Possible joint funding down road of additional pipelines
• partnership on MQ-9B sea gaurdian drones (designed to work with P8 patrol aircraft as anti-submarine training

Canadian investment into Latvia NATO innovation range for drone evaluation.

Not addressed but on wish list:
APC fleet replacement - can see a split fleet with LAV for Canada and ??? in Europe
update on possible BvS10 fleet purchase due to NATO linkage
