Re: The tank that really never was
I'm not saying a word here that I haven't said for years now about ARMATA. You can add the BOOMERANG to that list well as it CURRENTLY looks. It's the T-95 all over again.
What I think is we have them in and unless something does actually come along, and you need the slots you can consider putting on the " chopping block" then.
I've also said for years that the 2025/2026 Submission Campaign would act as the way to " clean up" those OOB's that have equipment that never saw the " light of day" that's my plan but some have already identified themselves to me for instance HIMARS to Australia and CHALLENGER 3 for the UK.
All we can is track these things until either the trail goes cold or we're closing in on the quarry.
Regards,
Pat
