Lebanese Army set to receive 20 refurbished VBC-90 6x6 Armored vehicles



After receiving 15 units of the GIAT Caesar 155mm Self-propelled artillery system last month, the Lebanese army is set to receive 20 refurbished ex-French Army VBC-90 Armored vehicles sometime before October. The vehicles, purchased with part of the $3 Billion USD military aid from Saudi Arabia, will reduce the workload of the elderly M113 armored vehicles in the Lebanese Army. 

The VBC 90 is a 6x6 armoured vehicle manufactured by the French Company Renault based on the VAB 4x4 armoured personnel carrier. The VBC 90 has been used by the French Gendarmerie since 1983 and now it is no longer in service.

The VBC 90 is armed with a long-barrelled Giat Industries 90 mm F1 gun with a 35º oblique wedge breech block, a hydropneumatic recoil system, a thermal sleeve and a muzzle brake. There are 20 rounds of ready to use 90 mm ammunition carried, four in the turret basket and 16 in the turret bustle.

Mounted coaxially to the left of the main armament is a 7.62 mm machine gun and there are two electrically operated 80 mm smoke grenade dischargers mounted either side of the turret towards the rear.

Sigh. I always feel sad when read about this. The allocation by the government simply not enough.

Amaran tu effective ke? Nanti takdak orang hiraukan Amaran kita ni

Nice fact: Vietnam People's Armed Forces currently has 24 Scud launchers with about 100 missiles, almost all of it is aimed at the PRC . And they're are capable of producing the Scud-B missiles by themselves.

That's a 100 more missiles Malaysia doesn't have haha

Mind you, this is one of the more older, medium-sized ones in CCG fleet, probably 2,000-3,000 ton-class. The ones they use on Pinoy territory is larger and more advanced, even have helicopter.

But I hear some types of heavier CCG ships are used more often in certain seas. Especially more hostile ones like Japan, Pinoy or Vietnam. For example, the two 12,000 ton CCG ships will mainly be deployed to East China sea and confront the Japanese, who China view as their most capable and dangerous adversary.

I usually just read thru but i saw that post then feeling abit uncomfy must confirm with ltz

Biasa ikut the coast guard what type of grey ship?

Butterworth base is already been planned for a land-swap redevelopment, new air base is planned at Ara kuda

The journalist probably never heard of planespotters, any pictures taken outside the base looking into the base or the planes in it is not against the law (more like there's no law for it) and these guys can literally camp just outside the security fence

The problem with butterworth is that its an old legacy ww2 british airbase and any expansion is out of the question, so the air force have planned it to move to new location in few years time

I've no idea about how Malaysia do thing with regards to housing near military bases.

Cheers.
