I wanna do this , this is my dream job but there’s too many ppl that want this job that half the time ur gonna be stuck Eli shorty jobs instead of being in the actual tank, Canada needs to invest more on rhere military power
LAV's -good piece of kit, with a reassuring throaty diesel roar at night when you're in urban terrain. Looks like Canada runs a combo of Leopard II's and older I's?
I did a stint in the infantry, came in first for my regiment in the training course. I saw how much politics overrode functionality and when it came time to re-sign for a new contract I outright refused even though they promised me the moon.. It’s too bad, there were some good people in there but the system is full of rot.
Dappr Boi420 Too many to list here but some big ones are blatant double standards to accommodate differences in gender, an obvious emphasis on “quotas” over performance, too much attention to political correctness, budget issues directly effecting the standard of training, kit and housing etc.
You are right. You should see the buildings at 17th wing airforce base in Winnipeg how bad the buildings are maintained. They can't fix the basics and which Army has an external security company (comissionairis) working the gates? This is a big security issue. It's a shame.
Yeah my dream all my life was to be a Canadian soldier. Passed my first basic in 1991 and then got downsized out. Tried again in 1994 but ran into the "french attitude"(plus was "blessed" with a serious infection when I was sent to the field too early after an operation) and got dropped again. I then tried once more in 2009 in which I worked back into fighting form and all ready to go for it but discovered the corruption and rampant changes to the entire core of our military service and chose to walk away for good. All the power to those who still serve but it is not the military I remember nor ever will be again.......
I'd probably buy every single bit of my kit if I were in the Canadian military right down to the gun and bullets. Night vision only thing they would probably give me is the pistol because well we all know, I'd have a mr28 rifle or mk18 new hhv helmet top of the line gear I'd probably have 100k in gear bis only

Canada gave up their Military years ago, no navy, only a few patrol guard, no Aircraft Carriers or warships, no bombers, few fighters, no armor (Handful of obsolete tanks for training). and a handful of artillery. Pathetic, couldn't even field a full battalion. It's a joke. Now their citizens are disarmed too
some of it is old footage we mainly have leo 2a4's which are mostly used for training and leo 2a6's which are mainly used for deployments from what I understand but no leo1's are still used its just old footage
nah it's from the old footage. The Leo C2A1 are removed but if some of them still on service, it's for the armored crew members formation. We have 2A4M and 2A6M.
Canada military is 1/100th of America. But Canadian soldiers are 100x more trained on all equipment and weapons than Americans. Not saying there better in combat but they can pick any weapon and know how to handle and reload etc. Americans normally specialize in certain weapons and equipment.
So what you are saying is that Canadian Army has a bigger shortfall in manpower than it does in equipment? I mean you just told me how much your forces cross-train lol. 100X the cross-training of a normal Army is not normal at all.
Poor 40 year old tanks. Let's hope we stay fighting bands of unorganized terrorists till we get rid of L7s and L44s and find us some L55s. *i do think we have some but not many*
Those are C2A1 it's a leopard 1A5 with a MEXAS armor upgrade package, still kept in very good condition, however those and the leopard 2s need to be fazed out, the old rheinmettal L/44 120mm smoothbore is under powered, and a little clunky in terms of size and weight vs effectiveness, as well as the C2A1 still have the old 105mm RO-L7 gun, seriously underpowered if it comes upon an enemy tank
I don't believe we have any L55 guns but we do have roughly 80 leopards that we bought surplus from Netherlands (give or take a few dozen) 2A4M and 2A6M (M= mine armour upgrade package taken and reshaped from the latest armor of the german 2A7+) with up to date optics and electrical targeting and stabilisation, basically bringing them on par with a 2A7+ in terms of armour, functionality and capabilities, with a slightly older and slightly less powerful engine is all, the rest of our tank fleet is made up of roughly 145 leopard 2s and C2A1 (upgraded leopard 1A5) but at least the 2A4M and 2A6M that we have don't have 40 year old used guns but newer only 10 or more year old L/44
@@CanuckBacon I know the 20 that were loaned for the war in Afghanistan had the L55; then we returned those and bought 20 to replace the 20 we gave back
It's not as essential as it was in WW2, but after the nukes are detonated, cities bombed, and lives lost, then you'll wish you had the worlds best tanks on your side. They serve as walking armor to ground troops. They also have massive guns. See the enemy tank? No problem. Is there a building in the way? Not anymore. So yes, tanks are still used.

Good men and women serving their country. Too bad Trudeau breaks his alliances and has his favourite Chinese soldiers training with NATO equipment on Canadian bases. Next thing will be Cuban “advisors” similar to Grenada in 1983-4.
Well said...
Pretty sure that doesn't happen but you do you man
@@c3a118 Check the news my friend. It happened in Petawawa ontario. Training for winter warfare. They in turn took it home and used it against the Indian army in the spring. Another news flash not reported to canadians by the press
@@c3a118 ignorance is bliss
You're shitting me!?! Now that I think about it...yep, I can see it. They ought to threaten him with expulsion until he gives Me. Xi's mini-me's the boot! Incredible. I wonder what mission Commissar Trudeau plans to undertake with "our good friend," Mr. Xi?

Canada gave up their Military years ago, no navy, only a few patrol guard, no Aircraft Carriers or warships, no bombers, few fighters, no armor (Handful of obsolete tanks for training). and a handful of artillery. Pathetic, couldn't even field a full battalion. It's a joke. Now their citizens are disarmed too

Cant believe we are still using Leo a1 :(
some of it is old footage we mainly have leo 2a4's which are mostly used for training and leo 2a6's which are mainly used for deployments from what I understand but no leo1's are still used its just old footage
@@alexmcmillan9595 thanks for the update pal !
We have 20 Leo’s with the L55 cannon most of our armour is with the older L44
For training purposes , yes
nah it's from the old footage. The Leo C2A1 are removed but if some of them still on service, it's for the armored crew members formation. We have 2A4M and 2A6M.
1:08 that communication skill tho 🤣
Canada military is 1/100th of America. But Canadian soldiers are 100x more trained on all equipment and weapons than Americans. Not saying there better in combat but they can pick any weapon and know how to handle and reload etc. Americans normally specialize in certain weapons and equipment.
So much 🐂 Shit...
So what you are saying is that Canadian Army has a bigger shortfall in manpower than it does in equipment? I mean you just told me how much your forces cross-train lol. 100X the cross-training of a normal Army is not normal at all.
ok c'mon. nobody is behind armoured recce......
Poor 40 year old tanks. Let's hope we stay fighting bands of unorganized terrorists till we get rid of L7s and L44s and find us some L55s. *i do think we have some but not many*
Those are C2A1 it's a leopard 1A5 with a MEXAS armor upgrade package, still kept in very good condition, however those and the leopard 2s need to be fazed out, the old rheinmettal L/44 120mm smoothbore is under powered, and a little clunky in terms of size and weight vs effectiveness, as well as the C2A1 still have the old 105mm RO-L7 gun, seriously underpowered if it comes upon an enemy tank
I don't believe we have any L55 guns but we do have roughly 80 leopards that we bought surplus from Netherlands (give or take a few dozen) 2A4M and 2A6M (M= mine armour upgrade package taken and reshaped from the latest armor of the german 2A7+) with up to date optics and electrical targeting and stabilisation, basically bringing them on par with a 2A7+ in terms of armour, functionality and capabilities, with a slightly older and slightly less powerful engine is all, the rest of our tank fleet is made up of roughly 145 leopard 2s and C2A1 (upgraded leopard 1A5) but at least the 2A4M and 2A6M that we have don't have 40 year old used guns but newer only 10 or more year old L/44
@@CanuckBacon I thought the 2a6 had the L55 but maybe I'm wrong
@@CanuckBacon I know the 20 that were loaned for the war in Afghanistan had the L55; then we returned those and bought 20 to replace the 20 we gave back

hahah tanks in 2021. no one does war with tanks anymore.
It's not as essential as it was in WW2, but after the nukes are detonated, cities bombed, and lives lost, then you'll wish you had the worlds best tanks on your side. They serve as walking armor to ground troops. They also have massive guns. See the enemy tank? No problem. Is there a building in the way? Not anymore.
So yes, tanks are still used.
@@alexm.8619 you need to join the 21st century my man. wars won't be fought like that again. nukes won't be going off. you need to come back to reality.
@@slybrethren3252 Well, as long as mankind exists, so will wars. It's the sad but honest truth. Counties like Canada avoid conflict as much as possible, but a simple glance at the Balkans can teach you so much. And on top of that, we haven't had a major war in 80 years, so..... As much I want to believe you, realistically, it's gonna happen sooner or later.
Your points are would be valid, if humans were perfect. :)
@@alexm.8619 i never said war won't happen. just not like in the past. economic and virial war are much more effective in today's modern world.
@@slybrethren3252 the biggest enemy of tanks are drones but anti air technology will catch up and tanks will evolve. tanks have still been used in the 21st century as recently as this year. and recon will always need to be done

Act accordingly. You're good to go.
I’m Canadian and I say these are good Tanks and Regiments , Soldiers but we should still use the Churchill tank in my opinion CANADA STRONG !
The Churchill would be crushed like a empty soda can compared to these modern tanks
Just so a new generation know how to use these type of tanks just in case
Well if we had to go to war in are own homes this would make sense because if we run low on supplies then we then actually have something to use hopefully it does something do you get me ?

Canada was worth fighting for before, Pre 2015. False Valour Harjit and others, including general vance made me decide against joining the military and you should too!
Damn I didnt know being deployed to Bosnia and thrice to Afghanistan was false valour. I feel like if current politics dissuaded you then you would never fit in at all anyways.
@@KartyMcFarty the fact youre defending a defense minister who has ignored and abused our military and buys used f 18s from austrailia, a country with less people and a smaller economy, just shows your character. Our best men and women deserve a lot better
@@maxhoefoe3462 no, his 4 deployments showed his character. His feelings of a single defence minister don’t matter. It’s a political position at the whims of the current PM. The new one doesn’t have any military experience at all. He chose to protect his country and your choice not to for petty political reasons shows your character
Looking at your profile picture, you'd drop out on the first day so thank god you didn't waste the governments time.
