Wow. Tell me, How is the Leopard 2 better then the M1A2? Wow, you have helicopters? I wish my country could afford those.

Actually sneaky.. IIRC the Marine Corps no longer allows the use of Dragon Skin.
Canada has the Leopard 2 while the US has the M1A2 Abrams (Not the A1) Between the LEO and the Abrams, it would be a close fight and a number of variable would affect it's outcome. You have to remember, each country buys/builds it's military equipment to match it's style of fighting. The US style of fighting is combined arms, and the M1A2 is built to share info VERY quickly on the battlefield. When in combat, CAS, CAP, and all other combined arms assets won't be too far off. It will never be a tank on tank situation. |

OMG, I'm gonna flip out. OK, son. First off it's 66 canadian soldiers and a diplomat dead. Second, we don't use M16s and M4s. We use C7s and C8s, which, while variants of those weapons, have been pretty heavily tuned by Colt Canada (formerly Diemaco). Our helicopters are unarmed and unarmoured, and can carry up to eight soldiers in them. The armoured versions can only carry four troops, and they don't have enough thrust to operate inAfghanistan effectively, as it's too high above sea level. Our tanks are mediocre. We've been using the Leopard C2, which is a Leopard 1 chassis with a Leopard 2 (A5?) turret. We've just bought/leased a number of late model Leopard 2s, which will see service late in the year once our crews and techs finish their training in Germany. Even then we will by no means have 'the best tanks in the world'. The Leopard 2 is a damned good tank for sure, but it's not out and out the best. The American interceptor armour has plate inserts in both the front and back. Don't you even think about talking crap about the American troops- many of them have given their lives, many more than have Canadians. Don't go talking smack about their soldiers when clearly you aren't in the forces yourself. Hit a recruiting center, put a few years in and THEN we'll talk about the Americans. Dragon Skin is a very well known kind of ballistic armour that has been used by many agencies, including CIA and I believe the secret service. It's been trialled by the U.S. armed forces, but generally rejected due to discrepancies in some of the test results. Any more questions? ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

Posted By: Linus

Or like me, 12 weeks. That's the one thing civilians will never understand, Bri, is the brotherhood between the services, no matter what country. I remember something on TV a while ago, and a US general said that he was talking to a counterpart in France and the French General said that he was mad at his country. He and his soldier's wanted to be on the ground in Iraq with their American allies because he know's we would have done the same thing for them. Hysteria... Let me rephrase what I said before. The US has the most modern combat experience in the world today, bar none. |
Posted By: brihard
Date Posted: 02 August 2007 at 1:09am
Correct. Combat experience is only valid/useful for about one generation- tactics and technology shift too rapidly for it to be otherwise. The United States is arguably the most combat experienced military in the world, due mostly to Iraq. No other developed nation has as many combat blooded soldiers. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

Yes, but it's a distinct weapon- different sights, different trigger group (full auto as opposed to burst), different rail mount on top (Canadian standard Weaver as opposed to an actual M1913 std), in the case of the C8 a very different barrel, and a hundred other mechanical differences. I would kind of hope I know my stuff... You don't put idiots in charge of infantry sections. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

If you join up and get accepted you can give a preference for regiment- if you ask for RCR you'll probably get it - but you don't get much say in your battalion. They might send you to 1st or 3rd in Petawawa, or you might land with 2nd in Gagetown. Or some joker might send you to the PPCLI in Edmonton or Shiloh. Apology accepted. From your profile I see that you turn 16 shortly. Have you thought about giving the reserves a try? EDIT TO ADD: Hysteria- True enough- we're debating semantics, I guess. We're on the same page though; I get what you're saying and you're right. I was just counting relevant experience... ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

Posted By: brihard
Date Posted: 02 August 2007 at 1:27am
It's got both repetition (semi auto) and automatic, but you'll almost never use automatic. The new close quarters shooting drills use repetition only, so that you can control and be accontable for every round you fire. We can't afford to have someone spray a room and waste a kid. You'd be surprised how quickly and accurately you can fire on semi auto. Shooting auto is hella fun though. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

JTF2 has a mixed counterterrorism and military combat role. The best comparison would probably be the British SAS, or for the Americans, a combination of what Delta and U.S. Army Special Forces do. Probably not as much amphibious stuff as the SEALs, but I may be mistaken. Very versatile I would worry about getting into the army first before you go thinking about getting into any of the 'high speed' units. Selection is exceptionally competitive. Within the past year we also started up the Canadian Special Operations Regiment, which is a second tier outfit- similar to the U.S. Army Rangers. CSOR seems to double as the JTF2 'farm team'. Probably a third of the kids I've taught in basic training wanted to be snipers, or join JTF or whatever. If I taught ten basic courses, I'd be surprised if one of those kids ever made it. Being infantry is challenging enough. As for choosing your weapon, no. You'll be issued a weapon (generally either a C7 or a C9 light machinegun) depending on what your job is in the section. Overseas many guys with C7s have been able to get C8s instead of C7s, but that hinges on whether there are any available to be issued out. You might have an M203 as well. You might be in a platoon or company weapons detachment and have to carry an anti armour weapon, or a mortar, or a general purpose machinegun, or a machinegun tripod, or even just mule a whole lot of ammo for one of the above. I'm gonna go out on a limb here- were you in cadets? ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

Dragon skin is a lotta hype. Untill I see it go against Rifle Rounds and other fun stuff it's just hype. I havent seen many Insurgents or Armies that field their troops with .45acp pistols. Interceptor is a good piece of gear. It isnt a miracle fix but it's way better than what we had when I was in Bosnia wich was a Flak Jacket that was so old I doubt it could had stoped any frag. I know many a good brothers who are alive because of the Interceptor. A bummer they cant buy commercial gear. We always uased aftermarket kit because the old 782 gear sucked so much and was so worn and beaten from training that we didnt trust it. -------------

We've gone over this before.
As Brihard stated before, experience only last about one generation do to shifting technology and tactics. And as I stated before, I meant to say modern combat. Trust me, what the Japanese learned with the Samurai, and that the Chinese learned the with Boxers, has very little effect on combat now-a-days. Well, except for the fact that guns > swords. |

LOL... You'll find out when you need to find out. 4 RCR is a reserve infantry regiment like any other reserve infantry regiment, except with a slightly higher proportion of regular force NCOs working with them. 1, 2, and 3 RCR are all solid infantry batallions. I could tell you all kinds of thigns about the RCR, but it really wouldn't do anything to help you out. Just wait out til you're 16, join the reserves, put some time in, learn the same way everyone else does, then when you hit 18 put in for a component transfer to the regs. There's a simple rule of thumb in the forces; everything you need to know you will be taught.

He went down, the bullet did not penetrate, but what did happen was the ballistic plate bent and splintered and ended up piercing his heart, he was a great guy, loved to smile. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/DBibeau855/?chartstyle=myspacecolors">

Block parties are a great way to talk to a source, what you do is talk to everyone on the block so that you dont have a bunch of green suiters talking to one guy over and over and over. Its to protect the iraqi people that want to help us.
My MOS is getting more and more tactical every day, interrogations on the objective are becoming more and more common. And also, 97E, interrogations are not all that we do, we are becoming more and more like 96Bs, the civilian contractors from firms like OSIRIS, CACI, OBERON ect ect, they do the brunt of the interrogation work. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/DBibeau855/?chartstyle=myspacecolors">

LOL at e-penis. This lad isn't fit to serve in *any* army, I'm rather sure, so I won't bother getting defensive about this one... ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

I know a few people who've been saved by the interceptor armor, and at least one who's been saved by the better kevlar helmets(US army adopted a smaller profile helmet for infantry with less neck and ear coverage for better motion and hearing using better kevlar, USMC retained old helmet profile, used better kevlar). The interceptor stuff is even stopping 7.62X54mm light ball ammo from sniper rifles in cases. If dragon skin could stop 7.62X54mm heavy ball ammo, I'd be impressed. The C7/C8 series has some advantages over the M-16 A2/A4/M4 rifles. Aren't C7 barrels thick under the handgaurds? A semi/full auto trigger group has some advantages. The M-16's with 3rnd burst have a poorly designed burst setting, that among other things, can give you three different rotating trigger pulls. Then again, I was told I'd never use it except once at A-line BWT just to show me how much it sucks. I'd think linus was in training long enough to get it, I hardly think he's talking like a combat vet. DEP and recruit training are in a large part, cultural indoctrination. |
