The New Canadian Military does not have any M1128 Mobile Gun Systems in our inventory. They where all stripped for spare parts to fix our fleet of LAV IIIs, and its 105mm Guns are reused in the Leapord C2 fleet.

If you want an MGS, you will need a different chassis. The LAV III has the same problem the current chassis does... too narrow, too light, not stable enough.

Unfortunately for the Karma-naskis PM running in the election, he may want to look somewhere else other then New Canada, as GD Land Systems-NC has declined to take part in this "joint" venture with the KDF. Citing it would give the company a bad name to deliver their LAV IIIs to "Pot Smokers".

The ROD has one Stryker infantry battalion (20th infantry) and they do employ the M1128 MGS alongside the infantry carriers. It is not suitable for armored warfare, but it has proved very useful as an infantry support weapon: engaging infantry strongpoints, blowing holes in walls, etc. In our opinion it’s not a good replacement for tanks though.

Right now, the 20th Infantry Battalion – Call Sign Mongoose – is deployed to Panama and they brought a company’s worth of Strykers with them. The remaining Strykers are still at North Barracks in the ROD with a small rear detachment. You are welcome to send some guys over to the ROD if you would like to take some M1128s for spin and bust some caps on the tank range (just don’t try to shoot them cross-carriage). Or you can drop by Panama and try them out in the mud and rain or a much wetter climate.

Karma may want to go to Italy to see their mobile gun system the B1 Centauro, Im sure that will be enough to support the KDF's needs.

The CoC is conducting Cabinet meeting, one Associate Under-Secretary proposed an Embargo on Kamanski. Expressed interest to improve relationship with Canada as important. Also much larger economy, will need to work with Canada more in the future.
Discussion ensued on the idea, even though it surprised everyone.
The Asst Under-Secretary mentioned how apologetic Canada was a week ago with training program operation. In the end, there was not conclusion to set up, implementation of an embargo. But extend invitation to improve trade with Canada.
This was approved.

A trade embargo on Karmanaskis, this should be interesting, at least then it would get rid of the Cannabis.

New Canada Sent out a Reply to BC Engineering saying, " Unfortenely, New Canada has declined taking part in a Joint deal with BC Engineering in producing 8x8 APC's for the KDF, citing that the embargo aginest Karmanaskis will be imposed."

So the Karma-naskis and New Canada just split Vancouver Island and that's it? Where's the rest of Canada? Did you turn it in to an uninhabitable wasteland?

No The rest of Canada does exist but in my own thread, this thread only the southern portion of Vancover island is under our jurisdiction, the northen half is Karmanaskis.
