@20STARegt #shadow replacement project Land 129-3 ITR industry briefing was this week. Who are the hot tips to respond and will we see any breakthrough bleeding edge offers? @keirinjoyce @EliLea1 @nicholadrummond @DTRmag @KZiesing @andrewmagoo19 will Oz lead ABCANZ procurement?
@20STARegt @keirinjoyce @EliLea1 @nicholadrummond @DTRmag @KZiesing @andrewmagoo19 First contender that has been suggested to me is the @BoeingDefense RQ-21A Blackjack. Now in services with the @USMC and Canada it would be an interesting choice as it comes from the Scan Eagle. Who else is out there interested in the project? @JbAvn @ODowcett @WG_Cooper
abc.net.au/radionational/… @KZiesing kept this radio interview quiet when I started this discussion!
@KZiesing I think I agree with @Foliohat , in a conventional war UAS will be shot down like ducks during duck season!
So are UAVs being shot down in Syria? Are the drones now scoring as well as the Turish claim?
Are drones going to get as complex as a F-35. Can we afford not to be investing more in a counter UAS capability?
