I just found a photo on the net of the 1983 FMC offer for Project Waler which was the last time the @AustralianArmy tried to purchase 800-1000 IFV. @EliLea1 @aussie_tanker @strategic_tank @thepagey image where we would be now if RAAC ego had not got in the way of Mechanization!
Are there lessons to be learned as we buy the most effective, highly protected and capable wheeled IFV in the world the @boxercrv !
With the @lynxifv on the world stage, and the #hanwha IFV about to be unveiled is it time for the SoArmd to no longer be the Chief Instructor for Mech/Armd Inf, Eng, Arty and RAEME?
Is it time for a Combined Arms Training Center @CATCAusArmy without the Corps structure @dwmccammon ?
Tank, Infantry, Artillery and RAEME together in the School of Tacks (Close Cbt), School of ISR Cavalry, UAS, robots and the school of Motorisation, everything else in a protected vehicle that needs to move, shoot and communicate?
