i watch battlefield brothers kat Natgeo

Talibans would not want to risk their life firefight with the marines, usually shoot from 800 - 900m away with 0 accuracy.

the marines also unable to shoot back. they use a javelin to destroy a technical.....lol

then they jam their comm and hear taliban conversation, they heard taliban say shit their technical hit an IED.

the marines bring good translater with them, not that taliban speak english though....

ya taliban like to shoot from murder holes and suprisingly so far the marines also can spot the holes.

i tried shoot M16, dem accurate even on my standing pose

And yet we all buy something the other people trying to phase out.
And the region around us are buying the same type of MBT

There is a reason why Leopard is the most popular export tank in the world.

If one or two country choose maybe got their requirement, but when there are so many.... sure got reason in terms of (cost, ability and maintanence n etc)

unlike Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, laos and Vietnam which are consider as land based power,

SG, indo, Msia, brunei and pinoy are consider as maritime power.

so basically we shud spend more % of our GDP in upgrading our sea n air assets.

just imagine Britain and Germany during ww2.

japan traditionally already consider as a sea power.... look at ww2, they are the best seapower in the world during the beginning of ww2, but their land based power is 3rd rated from start till end.
