so Comox, Greenwood...
Yeah we bought the 3 Vikings and the Mangystau-2 I guess leaving the
Aiviq for the USCG
Polar Circle for the Swedes
leaving one left on the market according to Aker
and now we have
Seaspan building one Polar Icebreaker and 15 MPV
Irving building 8 AOPV
and the "national icebreaking center"...
True the army does seem to be the red headed step child in the CAF at the moment. I think it is a matter of prioritizing resources. As far as tracked APC/IFV goes the decision was made to cancel that procurement before announcement and 2 of the three contenders were wheeled
It seems to me like we are making progress on acquisitions though? Theres no point in us buying more equipment if we cant man it either
F18's replacement F35 ordered
Aurora replacement P8 ordered
Polaris replacement A330MRTT ordered
Buffalo replacement A295 ordered (hesitation on this one lol)...
