In addition, in January 2000 the Minister announced the [Canadian Forces' (CF)] intention to establish a combat-ready strike force ready to respond rapidly to global crises in the context of NATO or UN [United Nations] mandated missions. Central to achieving the capability will be strategic lift, an area where the CF has only limited resources. Its Hercules and Polaris aircraft are often overworked, and the CF has no dedicated sea lift assets. DND [Department of National Defence] has begun studies to determine the CF's future strategic lift requirements, one element of which will likely be an Afloat Logistics and Sealift Capability that will combine capabilities for fleet replenishment at sea, in-theatre support to joint forces ashore, and strategic lift for the army. 1, record 1, English, - strategic%20lift

En outre, en janvier 2000, le Ministre a annoncé l'intention des FC [Forces canadiennes] de mettre sur pied une force de frappe prête au combat et capable de réagir rapidement aux crises éclatant dans le monde, dans le cadre des missions organisées par l'OTAN ou l'ONU [Organisation des Nations Unies]. Le transport stratégique sera déterminant dans ce contexte; or, c'est un domaine où les ressources des FC sont limitées. Les avions Hercules et Polaris sont souvent utilisés jusqu'à l'excès, et les FC n’ ont aucun navire spécialisé de transport maritime. Le MDN [ministère de la Défense nationale] a entrepris des études afin de cerner les besoins à venir des FC en matière de transport stratégique. Un des éléments de la solution éventuelle sera sans doute une capacité de soutien logistique à la mer et de transport maritime(ALSC), qui permettrait à la fois de réapprovisionner la flotte en mer et d’assurer le transport stratégique des unités terrestres et, dans le théâtre des opérations, un soutien à des forces interarmées déployées à terre. 1, record 1, French, - transport%20strat%C3%A9gique
