    not MBDA asking japan but japan buying meteor for their F35 (because AAM4 too large to fit into F35 bay) and integrating them using their own (new) seeker. . . . the UK possibly would adapt those into their own service and replace their own meteor with it. so there going to be 2 version of the...

    CAMM got it's own stand alone VLS (as used in Type 23, and in the future Type 26, Type 45) , but it can be use on Sylver (as in italian navy use for CAMM-ER), ExLS vls (while Exls not adapted by any navy it had been tested for CAMM launch) and MK 41 (for MK41 it uses ExLS adapter). sokor do had...

    barracuda is nuclear, too advance for just a intrim sub (also its not fully operational in france). that also rule out attack-class because they still in design stage and aussie (possibly) would pressure naval group not to sell those to our. also its expensive AF, its 1bill+ USD.

    it's depend on who are handling on selling those Eurofighter typhoon (or who are they buying from). for airbus germany they usually are conservative in selling/giving ToT on those aircraft and usually put restriction on those (also the don't want to lose job on their country), for leonardo and...

    it also mean that our FREMM arrival time would take a bit long because Fincantieri just not focusing on our order only but the greece one (if they won it). i wouldn't put much hope in commonality with US one because they got a history of putting their manufacture first, that's mean that most...

    didn't CBG and cakra-class use different torpedo? cakra mostly use SUT while CBG use black shark (CMIIW here), maybe the navy wanted to empty the SUT stock before cakra-class retired? also there's a news that nagapasa fired a black shark in 2019 (idk if it true or not)

    if we wanted to achieved the 12 (or some say 14 in latest) submarine plan, CBG is needed. so we can fill our sub with 6 CBG, 4 TKMS*, 4/5 Scorpene*. *if the "bocoran" from early this year are true.

    not caseless, For NGSW program US Army only required them to be 6.8 mm (projectile/bullet), manufacture can bid their preferred ammunition design. For SIG their ammunition bid are more conservative with using regular brass with stainless steel base General Dynamics and True Velocity bid are...

    what make them different with us is that their program is the establishment of their own supply chain in their own country, they sub-contract their parts into their own company instead using the original contractor from French / Britain. while we mostly using parts from the origin country and...

    My opinion, right now one of the good combination of caliber are the one like the one use in old soviet doctrine or British Post-Afghan (current) doctrine are. that is using dual caliber ammunition in a squad level, so using combination of 5.56 as standard round and when needed for larger...
