    Our North - SSE Policy Update Megathread

    No one makes fun of the LAV Crews - I was in a mechanized Bn, and no a lav equipped artillery regiment, for 14 odd years. It’s not an easy job at all. The XM-30 Lynx is supposed to use AI to help it can the battle field and alert the crew to threats. How the crew commander / gunner is supposed...

    Frankly no. Most of the Ukrainian use of tanks has been from static fire positions that roll into, engage from, and roll out of. With limited pushing of single vehicles at a time. I don’t think it has anything to do with an increased willingness to take risks. It’s been discussed at length...

    Respectfully it isn’t. They aren’t conducting maneuver, rather they are moving from a hide to a fire position. It’s no more hit and run than moving from the admin area to a trench It’s not amazing, it’s a fact of inability to coordinate coupled with difficulty in massing. They’re pushing out...

    Dutch didn’t deploy tanks, or operate in Helmand. They were up in Urzugan. You’re thinking Danes.

    Ukraines essentially used tanks to roll into fire positions and engage then pull back. I would t really call it hit and run, they’re just rolling to run ups and backing off. A huge part of that is of course their general inability to employ combined arms tactics and need to Shepard resources...

    I’d argue the modern tank destroyer is a Stryker TOW variant but potato potato. The M-10 is going to be used like a tank, probably at great cost.

    Not it wasn’t. It won’t be in Stryker Bde’s who were the only used of the MGS.

    CAN Enhanced (Permanent?) Fwd Presence in Latvia

    No because as has been said above much better than I could phrase it, the key to content is perception of authenticity. Being employed as a PAFO immediately erodes that. Gen Z or what ever we call them now doesn’t want to listen to the suit being a desk tell them how the world is.
