I wasn't sure where to put this but hopefully right here will be fine. (Feel free to move it MODs) :confused:
I don't know how old this document is but its news to me.
PDF Army of Tomorrow
If I read this correctly the Canadian forces want their regular troops to do what JTF2 and CSOR are currently doing in Afghanistan. yeh know, find the targets and kill them using some form of mechanized weapon. Air strikes, artillery. then moving in on foot to finish off the rest at gun point.
Its no wonder why SOF are so effective in this kind of war. the PDF file assumes that future conflicts will be somewhat similar to what you are seeing now in Afghan.
Shoot! now hide for 3 weeks and shoot again! then hide again. worked for the Taliban for awhile. conventional forces suffered because of this until the unconventional forces/special forces entered and lead the fight.
So my point is if Canada did transform the army into a unconventional army what else is left for the Special Forces dudes to do?
Teach?
