New article from defense news states Hanwa is building a K9 factory in the UAE to build for middle eastern customers. Is this not like shooting themselves in the foot, when it comes to their CPSP offering of building them in Canada for export? If Poland is building them for European sales and UAE is for the middle east, where exactly would a new Canadian factory be selling them to? Certainly not the US and Australia has their own Hanwa manufacturing connection so where would a Canadian product go if not purchased by the CAF? Just saying Hanwa really didn't think this through by making a deal with the UAE while including manufacturing of the same vehicles for foreign sales in the Canadian offer.
Looking to see if he drops in to SK on the way back. It’s CPSP time!

Starting to wonder if the CPSP gets officially announced on Canada Day….I know definitely not a business like decision…..but maybe a political one.
Is Noah hinting at a KSS-III win announcement? Here's to hoping.
