The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

Yup that’s my number 1 expected threat — second is a bunch of armed folks who will just drive in and shoot up the place.

Don't worry we have Commissionaires for that eventuality......

That's it. All Army members should now be in full battle kit at all times regardless of duties or posting because, you know, just in case.

With the vast majority of CAF bases currently unsecured, an actual gate might be a reasonable first step.

But that would interfere with traffic offbase at 4....

I remember Lahr having a bunker facing the main gate with a GPMG in it.

Recent observations suggest that it's unlikely you'll even find them in a recognizable uniform ...

Willly looks like it has an arming area with berms and certainly one concrete roofed aircraft hangarette.

Darwin has hangerettes with full berms. What the roofs are made of, I can’t tell.

Back to the point: build the hangerettes to get the F-35s delivered.

Have a plan to start building armoured aircraft parking areas.

They are Operational Loading Areas. The berms are meant to protect other aircraft from explosion if a loaded aircraft catches fires, explodes, etc, not to protect from attacks. The ones in which we load weapons will have equivalent protection. Their roof is made of metal, just like the hangarettes we’ll build. They do not close therefore are much more susceptible to UAVs attack than ours.

There’s gotta be something us and our allies are not doing wrong.
