Hi, welcome to the conversation. You are correct that while MDA is a great company they haven't built a naval radar. More than likely a partnership with another company with that experience would be a better idea than building it alone and possibility have issues.

Note the absence of X-Band illuminators

Done Deal! This is great news as these enhancements are integral to the CSC project and ultimately will decrease build time with some modules being built offsite and transported to ISI for final assembly. It seems these enhancements were from lessons learned from the construction of the type...

It all depends how you assemble the warship and the documents I have seen the height of the building will be changed. You seem to have something out for Irving I guess, probably be because they don't run all their decisions by you I wager.

Wow what a necro post. Well its not just about the hull length but also the superstructure and height of the mast. Coupled together with filling in up to 14 hectares of harbor which they need permission to do so. Keep in mind as well originally they thought they would be building one CSC at a...

Well we should as it a waste of time. Even another government won't go that way as the sticker shock and public backlash would be too late. More than likely another minority government with the NDP pulling the Liberal or Conservatives chain.

They already visited a number of counties including Japan and they have been looking for several years at options. KSS II is on the short list and very smart of them to get their foot in the door now, especially with the government leaning towards a deal with Korea.

Its not about affording it, the current government has been very clear that acquiring nuclear submarines is unacceptable and its doubtful the public will accept it.

"The Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) project recently achieved another major design milestone. In April, 16 sailors from coast to coast arrived at the Human Performance Lab in Dahlgren, Virginia where they participated in the validation of a full-scale mock up of a selected Operations Room...

So it appears things are moving towards the selection of a design for the next class of submarines for the RCN which will succeed the Victoria Class. Later this month members of the submarine replacement project will travel to Japan and Korea to look at the Korean KSS-III and presumably the...

Put "one over" right......where's your substantiation of that eh? The simple fact is that the prime contractor expected to build a substantially smaller vessel in tonnage when they signed the combat package contract and the government years later bloated so the prime contractor has gone back to...

Pugliese is a well known opponent of the CSC and has consistently painted it in a bad light and well known with playing fast and lose with the "facts" just like Ken Hansen.

Its actually 100M for a syncrolift and changes to the internals of the existing structure. I love when David Pugliese quotes "industry sources" which is pretty much in every hit piece he writes, probably Davie shipbuilding.

Some for tidbits for the people not in the know. From someone that was just at CANSEC. Safran is providing the New Generation Dagaie System which launches decoys. They are providing one system per ship two launchers total, one port one starboard fitted above the flex deck space on the ASM deck...
