Improved CADPAT 24,000 2012 The Department of National Defence estimates the production rate
combat would be about 24,000 ICU uniforms per year. The decision to
uniform change the combat uniform is mostly due to problems with drying,
and it offers poor integration with operational equipment. The other
[1]
reason is the loss of colour after only one year of use.
Small Arms small arms N/A 2012–2022 N/A In October 2007, Department of National Defence approved the
Replacement Identification of the Small Arms Replacement Project II (SARP II).
Project The SARP II will deliver a modern networked integrated direct fire,

Unmanned UCAV TBD TBD TBD Senior Canadian defence leaders pitched the idea of spending up
combat air to $600 million for a fleet of unmanned combat air vehicle to
vehicle take part in the Libyan civil war in 2011. According to DND
documents, the military intends to spend over $1 billion on the
project. In July 2012, the Conservative government approved a
request to aerospace firms to provide details about the types of
drones now available on the market. The government pointed out
the need for the unmanned aircraft to operate in the Arctic. The
unmanned air vehicle should also be able to carry
precision-guided munitions. One possible candidate is the

The Canadian Forces is seeking a replacement for its aging fleet
of 25 CT-114 Tutor aircraft by the year 2020.The Canadian
Forces is planning to spend $755-million in the project. The
CF-188 Hornet could be a potential replacement aircraft and
would increase the ability of the Snowbirds to perform around
the world but reduce their availability for smaller venues in
Canada that have runways too short to accommodate the jets. The
CF-188 Hornet would be 20 times more expensive to operate

than the current CT-114 Tutor.

Joint Support auxiliary oiler 3 2017 ThyssenKrupp The Joint Support Ship Project (abbreviated as JSS Project) is
Ship Project replenishment Marine Systems a project undertaken by the Canadian Forces to provide the
Canada Inc. Royal Canadian Navy with three multirole naval vessels.
Canada/Navantia, These vessels will enable a Naval Task Force to remain at sea
S.A. Spain for six times longer than is currently possible. The Joint
Support ships will provide the RCN with a greater flexibility to
conduct a wide range of operations both domestically and
internationally. Originally announced in 2004, a contract for
the construction of these ships was to have been signed in
2009. They were to have been available for operational service
in 2012. As of January 2012, contract for the construction of
these ships has not been signed and proposed entry into service
has been set back by five years to 2017. The RCN has
concluded that the Berlin class replenishment ship and the
Cantabria Class are the only candidates for adaptation. The
Berlin Class and the Cantabria Class designs are the only two
designs that can be adapted to meet the Canadian Forces
[67]
requirements.

Arctic Patrol Arctic Patrol Ships 6–8 2014 Halifax Shipyard On July 9, 2007, Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced
Ship Project Canada the construction of eight Arctic patrol ships capable of polar
class 5 (PC-5) operations. This announcement also saw the
federal government commit to establish a deep water port for
RCN operations in the Northwest Passage and adjacent waters.
The estimated cost of 6-8 vessels is $4.3 billion including
[68]
maintenance for 25 years. Possible design concepts under
consideration include that of the Norwegian patrol vessel
NoCGV Svalbard. As of January 2012 a contract for the
construction of these ships has not been signed.
Single Class wide-area air 15 TBD Halifax Shipyard The Single Class Surface Combatant Project is the name given
Surface defence/Destroyer Canada by naval observers for the expected replacement of the
Combatant Iroquois-class destroyer and eventually replace the
Project Halifax-class frigate in the period beginning 2016–2017. As of
January 2012 a contract for the construction of these ships has
not been signed. DCNS had recently proposed two ships for
the Canadian forces. The FREMM multipurpose frigate and
[]
the Mistral class amphibious assault ship.
Kingston Coastal defence TBD 2020 Halifax Shipyard The Royal Canadian Navy is discarding its $100M mid-life
class vessel/Minehunter Canada []
refit plan for the twelve vessels in this class. Instead,
Replacement MCDVs will be replaced by new vessels to enter service in
2020. It had been intended to retain the ‘mid-lifed’ vessels
through 2045–2055 however, the Royal Canadian Navy has
concluded that the money would be better spent in acquiring a
new platform. RCN's review listed low speed and small size as
reasons for the MCDV being inadequate for patrol duties (both
are factors of the original specification). Critics note that patrol
and training were tacked onto the mine-countermeasures role
and that the platform lacks serious armament for a sovereignty
[]
enforcement role. As of January 2012, a contract for the
construction of these ships has not been signed.
Naval Remote remote weapon N/A 2012 N/A The Department of National Defence has a requirement to
Weapon station provide a Naval Remote Weapons Station defence capability

Amphibious Amphibious TBD TBD TBD The Canadian Forces and Department of National Defence had
Assault Ship assault ships discussed the possibility of acquiring one or more amphibious
Project assault ships for the Royal Canadian Navy that would be
capable of transporting up to 1,000 soldiers and equipment and
supporting them in an amphibious assault. Such ships would
be similar to the San Antonio class amphibious transport dock
or Mistral class amphibious assault ship and would function as
a light carrier capable of supporting aircraft such as the
CH-147 Chinook transport helicopters, CH-148 Cyclone
anti-submarine helicopters, CH-146 Griffon light utility
helicopters, as well as vertical lift fighter jets, and water-borne
landing craft and air cushioned vehicles. The project is not
believed to have proceeded to the design stage. DCNS had
recently proposed two ships for the Canadian forces. The
FREMM multipurpose frigate and the Mistral class

New Defence National Defence 1 2016 In late 2011 DND purchased the former campus of Nortel on Carling
Headquarters Headquarters - 18 Avenue, in the west end of Ottawa for $208 million in order to establish a
Ottawa new headquarters facility there. The campus consists of 12 buildings on
approximately 28 hectares that were owned by Nortel and 120 hectares
leased from the National Capital Commission. An additional $630 million
will be spent to refit the site and construct a new operational command
building. Up to 10,000 military and civilian personnel will eventually
work there. The move to the former Nortel campus will reduce the
number of Defence Department and Canadian Forces locations in Ottawa
and Gatineau from 48 to seven or less. DND’s main headquarters, the
Major-General George R. Pearkes Building on Colonel By Drive, and its
facility on Star Top Road will continue to be used. The Pearkes building
was intended for Transport Canada, but in 1974 became DND
headquarters. In 2008, DND came up with its long-term office
accommodation strategy, which included a reduced headquarters building
at Colonel By Drive, a continued presence in Gatineau and a consolidated
campus that included a new operational command building.
