one of my friends is a CF-18 pilot in CAF, coolest guy I know

Keep in mind we entered WW2 with one of the smallest overall armed forces in the world and left WW2 with the second or third largest in the world. This is compared to countries with 10 times the population! We also did it with volunteers. No conscription and no draft to dodge from!!!

I don't see it coming down to luck, no matter what we did we would never be able to muster as many troops as the US or USSR at the height of the cold war. Besides, we were supposed to be protected under your ballistic missile shield!
-
yea i know, like what is it we have 35,000 land troops and were looking for another 8000, i think we should look for at least another 25,000
-
They've came in before and we intercepted them with the F-18's.

Ouch, no Arrows, no AWACS, you guys are lucky the Soviets never Beared into North America.

Do anything NATO really serve anyone?? LOL
The only Patrolling Aircraft we have is the CP-140 Aurora.

My bad, should've been more elaborate. NATO has joint AWACS, and Canadians fly on them, but I don't think any of them really serve Canada. Answers my Q but I think Canada could use some of their own, not NATO ones. 80 fighters is not much for the world's 2nd biggest state and Canadian based AWACS could really come in handy.
-
Actually there are NATO AWAC's and Canadians do fly on them I can assure you because I happen to know Canadian Forces members who flew on them.
Search NATO AWACS

AWACS is not NATO. The US doesn't share their E-3s, and the Brits and French have their own also.
Also, they are based in Germany and would rarely be in Canada. It answers my question but I don't think it is adequate for Canada itself.
ill be flying there one day.
