AIR-TO-GROUND CAPABILITY [2 records]

Record 1 2015-04-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Air Defence
CONT

Both the Canuck and the Voodoo lacked an air-to-ground capability and therefore did not contribute to the provision of a ground support capability to the Canadian Army.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Défense aérienne
CONT

Loin derrière, pour les opérations domestiques, les options d’un chasseur léger et de missiles sol-air (SAM) se classent respectivement en deuxième et troisième place. Ceci s’explique par un besoin domestique presque nul en capacité air-sol. Ainsi, les bombardiers ne reçoivent que peu de considération, n’ayant traditionnellement pas de capacité air-air.
