The Indonesian Army will hold a live-firing exercise on June 15, 2015 in South Sumatera. The Leopard 2 tanks & Marder IFV will take part for the first time in the exercise.

cant reach major cities... maybe they would target hainan and guangzhou/hk

Takpa....kita boleh bagi amaran

No wonder so tacticool....
Malaysian army ones so plain.

Shooting down aircraft is simple compared with shooting down ballistic missiles. Aircrafts are relatively fragile and filled with sensitive materials, a good hit even with a small shrapnel of a HE-Frag warhead at the right place could already bring the whole plane down. But you can't use normal SAM missiles to shoot down even a small ballistic missile like the Scud.

Shooting down ballistic missiles is like shooting down a flying telephone pole, peppering it with HE-Frag shrapnel from SAM missiles designed to shoot down aircraft wont do a damn thing to change its trajectory. Worse is once the warhead is already in terminal descent, the speed and gravitational momentum ensures almost nothing can stop it. That's why specialized anti-ballistic missiles (ABM) have a solid tungsten kinetic-energy projectile instead of a HE-Frag warhead common to SAM missiles.

But that in itself is a potential weakness, because if the ABM missile projectile so much as misses a ballistic missile warhead by a single inch, it's already a total miss (and believe me, a 5-foot tall nuclear warhead is not that big of a target). With a potential nuclear warhead screaming towards the earth at mach 5+, you don't get a lot of time for a second launch.

We can talk how how hitting the missile works

But our lack of medium and long range same just make it pointless.

Even our jernas i wonder still works or not.


That not sam lah.

Taming sari missile. Dunno what the development now?

Project sudah mati kah?

setakat paint je..

Four ways China can counter US X-47B UCAV: Sina Military



China has four ways to counter the United States Navy's US Navy's X-47B unmanned combat air vehicle (UCAV), says the Beijing-based Sina Military Network.

Developed by Northrop Grumman, the X-47B is said to provide the US with a major advantage over that offered by traditional fighter jets. The UCAV conducted its maiden flight in 2011 before completing ground tests and commencing test flights in 2013. In-flight refueling tests began at the start of this year.

Even when taking mid-air refueling in account, fighter jets only have a range of about 1,500 nautical miles but their combat range is actually much lower as pilot fatigue needs to be factored in, restricting missions to a maximum of around 10 hours.

The X-47B, on the other hand, has a range of 3,000 nautical miles, greater than that of the F/A-18 and F-35C fighter jets. UCAVs also don't need to worry about pilot fatigue as operators work in shifts and are easily substituted, meaning mission lengths can be extended to up to 50 hours. By comparison, fighter jets need to return to base, undergo maintenance and change pilots before they can take off again.

UCAVs can also carry a wide range of ammunition, including the MK-84, GBU-31, BLU-109, MK-83, MK-82, GBU-32, GBU-103, GBU-104, GBU-105, AGM-114, AGM-65E, CBU-99, GBU-12, MK-82, MK-46/50/54, and so forth, making them extremely versatile and capable of carrying out missions over both sea and land as well as engaging in aerial combat. Importantly, the X-47B would allow US aircraft carriers to maintain a distance of more than 500 nautical miles off the coast of mainland China in an assault on Chinese territory.

According to Sina Military, China has three options to counter the X-47B. The first is to deploy the DF-21D ballistic missile to attack the UCAV from distance. The second, though less likely option, is to attack it with the H-6K strategic bomber, though such a strategy could face intercepts from US fighters. The third option is to use attack nuclear submarines to sneak up on US aircraft carriers, though this would require a great deal of intelligence to ensure correct positioning.

A fourth alternative is for China to develop sufficient deterrent capabilities to prevent the US from deploying the X-47B in the first place. However, China cannot simply rely on its nuclear threat as a deterrent, the report said, adding that the People's Liberation Army will need to develop more flexible options such as building its own UCAV.

Lebanese army conduct live-fire tests on newly arrived US-supplied TOW-II ATGMs

The Lebanese Army demonstrated their newly received TOW-II missile launchers Wednesday at a military base in the Bekaa Valley in a show of force as it prepares to engage militants on Lebanon’s border. U.S. Ambassador David Hale attended the event and Gen. Maroun Hitti represented the Army’s commander Gen. Jean Kahwagi.

“Today we are celebrating just the latest shipment of U.S. equipment, the arrival of over 200 missiles and dozens of launchers for the Lebanese Army,” Hale told reporters as he stood in front of an armored vehicle. “We are absolutely committed to making sure that the Army has the capacity to be the sole defender of Lebanese territory and its borders.”

The anti-tank guided missiles are part of weapons and ammunition shipments that have arrived in Beirut in batches this year.

“This shipment complements the American aid program specifically for the Lebanese Army, with the goal of strengthening its capacity in facing the dangers targeting Lebanon and in facing the terrorist threat,” military officer Jano al-Hadad said in a speech at the beginning of the demonstration.

The shipment – valued at $10 million – arrived in Lebanon via the Rafik Hariri International Airport last week and was partly funded by Saudi Arabia.

US Congress approves sale of A-29 Super Tucano light attack aircraft to Lebanese Armed Forces

The U.S. Congress approved a $462 million sale of A-29 Super Tucano light attack airplanes and associated equipment, parts and logistical support to Lebanon. The U.S. Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) said in a statement on Tuesday that the proposed sale would help the country protect itself from internal and border security threats.

According to the agency, the Lebanese government had asked for a possible sale of ten A-29 Super Tucano Aircraft, eight ALE-47 Countermeasure Dispensing Systems, 2,000 Advanced Precision Kill Weapon Systems, two Missile Launch Detection Systems and a non-SAASM Embedded Global Positioning System/Initial Navigation System. Along with this, Lebanon had also requested spare and repair parts, flight testing, maintenance support, support equipment, publications and technical documentation, ferry support, personnel training and training equipment, U.S. Government and contractor engineering and logistics support services.

“The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale on Jun 5, 2015,” the statement said, adding: "Implementation of this proposed sale will not require any additional U.S. Government or U.S. contractor personnel in Lebanon. However, periodic travel will be required on a temporary basis for program reviews and technical support."
