I bet someone over here makes one for the M203 pretty quickly. And the various under barrel 12ga creations that were never adopted over the years will probably be re-examined. We are SO far behind in tactical drone TTP's and equipment. And our defense industry/military procurement is glacial at...

This will stir the pot a bit

If you can't defeat your enemy by fighting war their way, redefine War. We need to wake up and stop fighting the last war as we already have War being waged upon us. Didn't Sun Tzu and von Clausewitz teach us anything?

Physical (size and structural mounts) hydraulic electrical power support requirements, cost. Would be cheaper to design and build a new suite than to try to modify and STC an existing one to a different platform

The HH60M would be better for SAR, that is pretty much its design mission and Canada doesn't have enough C130 refuelling capable tankers to scatter around the SAR bases to make a MH variant with a refuelling probe worthwhile. And no navy to speak of so the naval versions would be overkill for...

Op Corporate, they flew a Chinook off the Hermes and Invincible after the Atlantic Conveyor (and the other 9 Chinooks) was sunk. I have been told the CH-47 is a hot rod of a helicopter, but the The CH-46's (Sea Knight / Labrador) were sure adept at the VertRep role however...

Good description of Russian tactical objectives for this month (5:45-8:40) Discussion of Ukrainian MSR vulnerabilities and source for above. (27:35-45:00) NATO will either send support elements on the ground in the west and Moldova etc to free up Ukrainians for the front, start enforcing a...
