Diego Garcia Was the Warning Shot Canada Cannot Afford to Ignore

DIEGO GARCIA, British Indian Ocean Territory (Dec. 10, 2013) - U.S. Air Force KC-10A Extenders and C-17 Globemaster III aircraft sit on the airfield aboard U.S. Navy Support Facility (NAVSUPPFAC) Diego Garcia Dec. 10, 2013. NAVSUPPFAC provides logistic support to multi-theater forces operating in multiple areas of responsibility in support of Operation Enduring Freedom and overseas contingency operations.

The takeaway from Diego Garcia is not that the strike was a failure; rather, it’s that existing defenses are now being tested by increasingly capable systems. Canada must take note and adapt.
