Far Canadians skidded from home. Who called them at all?

The USSR and the ATS would not collapse, we would also conduct exercises somewhere in Cuba, and I doubt that under the news about these exercises you would write exactly the same comments

In fairness. In the Soviet and Russian Armed Forces, too, disasters occurred far beyond the borders of their native country.

I don’t understand, if you agree, then why write this?

For the sake of a collection of "plus signs" from thoughtless urya-patriots or what? Well, at least be a little objective and do not be like the Yankes, who believe that they can do what others cannot.

Well, at least be a little objective

To be a little objective, it’s obvious - we are in unequal conditions with the North Atlantic Alliance in terms of the presence of an opponent off the coast
And the presence of one ship of Canada (plus 10 NATO ships) for us is a greater provocation than for Canada the presence of one ship of the Russian Navy

Friends themselves come to the rescue (apparently at the behest of the soul, or whatever they have there). In the Baltic countries, Canadians are the base contingent of NATO forces.

What did he do in the land far
That did not fly in the native land .....

[Alex777]

~ $ 182 million was worth this latest helicopter.
5 billion contract and even 112 million then paid extra for 28 helicopters.
More expensive F-35 is now obtained PLO helicopter. A little expensive ... http://airwar.ru/enc/uh/ch148.html

I wonder when our planes fell into the Mediterranean Sea, did you also write? Or do you have double standards?

Non-combat losses are many times higher!

[fa2998]

Yes, I think 90% of Canadians for the FIRST time heard that the Ionian Sea exists.

[iouris]

Well heard. Not the fact that they can be found on the map.
