DND warns availability of Canadian military equipment is dropping

The percentage of navy and army equipment that is supposed to be ready for training and operations has continued to decline, warns a new report from the Department of National Defence.

A lack of money and staff as well as aging equipment were the cause of the problems, according the Departmental Results Report 2023-2024. “There is a risk that DND/CAF may have difficulty maintaining its materiel capabilities at the right level to support operations,” the report, released Dec. 17, pointed out.
