Canada’s Secret Deep Strike Deal: What You Need to Know

Canada just held a secret industry meeting to select its next deep-strike weapon, and the requirements list Ottawa is asking for reads almost exactly like a Ukrainian deep strike drone spec sheet. We don’t know which companies were invited to the secret meeting in Ottawa. My guess is Ukraine’s FirePoint, possibly some UK contenders, and MDBA. I break down the Canadian Deep Precision Strike Capability program, why Canada is looking past expensive missiles like ATACMS toward cheap, mass-producible one-way attack drones instead, and why the factory behind the weapon may end up mattering more than which company wins the contract.
