@Bone348 I agree with this. We all know Saab has some 6th gen equivalent plans, if we were to be able to assist with software, manufacturing, testing of the next generation. At the cost of using the Gripen to train and build up the forces necessary. I say get it done now.
82 years ago, 14,000 Canadians landed on Juno Beach, many of whom would never come home.
On the anniversary of D-Day, we pause to honour those who served and sacrificed. We remember that our rights, our freedoms, and our way of life were fought for and were won by those who answered the call.
82 years ago today Scotty from Star Trek was shot 6 times during D-Day while fighting for Canada during WWII. On June 6, 1944, James M. Doohan of Vancouver, later of Sarnia, landed at Juno Beach while serving in the Canadian Army. He was wounded six times later that day by friendly fire and later became best known as Scotty on Star Trek. 🇨🇦
@Ghost_msl@heatloss1986@BluefleetOC Could also be defined as “Thousands of parts all build by the lowest bidder, all designed to fail at different times, rotating around until it falls from the sky”
Old Chinook Pilots said that to me
@JessieTweeting Warfare is changing. Very quickly. The moves and counter moves are clear. It’s now about who adapts the most effectively. While drones currently are surging, it’s also understandable that the countermeasures to that will surge soon too. Interesting to watch the evolution.
Just discovered this commercial from 1994 where Darth Vader, one of the strongest Sith Lords in all of Star Wars, is canonically defeated in a lightsaber duel by the Energizer Bunny.
@cadetleaf@NoahGairn That is a problem across all HIMARS users at the moment to be fair. LocMart needs to ramp up production in a hurry. Which is a problem in and of it's self.
