we RMN need add 5000 navy staff, too little.

our RMN need add 6000 navy staff, 5000k Airfoce staff, too little for currently.
Army: 80k, RMN 20K, RMAF : 20K should be fine.
increase yearly RM5 billion for management and RM 5 billion for procurement should be more reasonable.

Dah hisap ganja Ke?

5billion + 5 billion 😂😂

our RMN need add 6000 navy staff, 5000k Airfoce staff, too little for currently.
total Army: 80k, RMN 20K, RMAF : 20K should be fine.

This may apply to ground forces where 'bayonet strength' is still applicable, but Navy and Air Forces depend more on equipment and less on personnel. Number of personnel doesn't equate with capability. A single modern fighter plane may require up to 50 people working in various capacities for it to fly and operate correctly.

So you can't really say exactly how many people are needed in Navy or Air Force, it all depends on what equipment is being used.

Amman - Pretty blonde saleswomen smile as they showcase the latest rocket-propelled grenades. Paunchy Americans in rumpled suits offer 30-minute tutorials on anti-tank weapons. Ukrainians flog state-produced tanks not 50 metres from where Russians sell a “tandem warhead” designed to destroy them

The everyday collides with the extraordinary: a friendly sales pitch that ends with “and you’ll find all our bombs on our website”, or wandering over to a grandmotherly type who offers sweets and a quick tutorial on thermobaric warheads (“very effective against both fortifications and manpower”)

A gala tour of Russia’s latest for-sale arsenal, then on a few dozen steps to the Ukrainian pavilion. Turkey, too, is flogging its war-making wares – again, a discreet distance from the shiny model of a Russian Sukhoi SU-32 bomber

Politics be damned, there is money to be made

The only regional players not invited: Iran, Israel and, for the first time, Syria

The latest version – which isn’t yet on Syrian battlefields – features night-vision, all-weather capabilities and improved guidance electronics. With its scope angled out the door and up a nearby hill

Raytheon is the company responsible for bunkerising the vast majority of Jordan’s 287 miles of border with Syria and Iraq. In October 2015, the company was awarded an $18.6m contract to expand its work on the Jordan-Syria border, and just this week, Jordan's Ministry of Defence signed an agreement with the US Department of Defence to acquire Raytheon’s TOW missiles

The US-made joint light tactical vehicle (JLTV), a huge 6,400kg truck, won maker OshKosh a contract with the US military in August 2015. The JLTV is in testing and slated to go into full production soon. OshKosh calls itself “the platform mover of choice”, and by platform, they mean a weapons system like HIMARS, THAAD, TOW or Milan – all systems used by the US or its allies

“We can’t prepare a vehicle for integration with Russian systems, for example,” said OshKosh’s Laura Cresswell. But she said OshKosh would still sell JLTVs to a buyer even if it knew they were going to install Russian weapons – it just wouldn’t prepare the vehicles for mounting

Rosboronexport is the state-run exporter, and it was present with several weapons producers including Bazalt, which was debuting its RPG-30 and RPG-7 anti-tank rocket grenades

Russia is the world’s second-biggest arms exporter after the US, and according to Rosboronexport representatives, it maintains military co-operation with more than 70 countries

The wares on offer at SOFEX included the URAN-6 mine-clearing robot, debuted at Palmyra, and a new noiseless mortar system. How noiseless could they be? “Like that,” said a salesman who asked not to be named, snapping his fingers

“There’s an increased interest in the SU-32 since we began our operation in Syria,” said the salesman. “That’s why it’s here.”

Beyond the planes, mortars and RPGs, Russian manufacturers are pushing their simulator training systems – suggesting they anticipate an increased appetite for pilots in Russian planes, helicopters and armoured vehicles

The United States on Thursday delivered military hardware to Tunisia to help the North African country hit by several Islamic State group attacks secure its borders and battle terrorism.

Light aircraft, jeeps and communications systems were part of the equipment handed over at a ceremony attended by US official Amanda Dory and Tunisian Defence Minister Farhat Horchani.

Dory, the US deputy assistant secretary of defence for African affairs, said the equipment was part of a $20-million package to bolster Tunisia's military capabilities.

The Reaper is a support pole for your gun

by JOSEPH TREVITHICK

When the legendary American-born inventor Hiram Maxim designed the first modern machine gun at the end of the 19th century, he completely changed the face of war. But after more than a century of development, one thing still limits these deadly weapons — their weight.

In early May 2016, the Australian Army said it was looking at a piece of American kit that, it believed, might finally ease the burden on its light machine-gunners. Aussie troops will experiment with what is essentially a curved metal pole that they can wear like a backpack — and which could help support their machine guns.

“It’s a funny-looking contraption,” Australian Army warrant officer Nicolas Crosbie, one of the soldiers taking part in the test, commented in an official video. “I’m interested to see … when we trial it with the soldiers, what they think of it and that sort of thing.”

Advanced Accuracy Solutions makes this novel “weapon support” that it calls the Reaper. Extending up over the shooter’s shoulder, the Reaper keeps the gun steady and reduces the strain necessary to keep the weapon at the ready.

A soldier would then attach their rifle or machine gun to the end using a length of cord and a strap. Running down the length of the pole, the line extends and retracts as the user moves their gun — sort of like a retractable dog leash.

With guns weighing anywhere from 15 to 30 pounds unloaded, machine gunners’ arms are liable to get tired quickly while holding the gun on target or while standing or kneeling for long periods. The system itself adds fewer than five pounds to a soldier’s load.

“The Reaper literally allows for unlimited time patrolling with M-249 and M-240 machine guns,” Advanced Accuracy Solutions’ Jason Semple told War Is Boring in an email, referring to two gun types in U.S. military service. “The system actually allows you to patrol at the ready position, as it 100-percent removes the weight away from your arms and shoulders.”

The Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP) has released a new propaganda video, revealing the insights of how jihadists captured Khan Touman and Khalidiyah in southern Aleppo one week ago.

The offensive was carried out by at least 3 tanks and 2 BMP’s while TIP fighters stormed (pro-)government troops alongside fighters loyal to Jabhat al-Nusra.

Work on the new helicopter is proceeding at full swing. We decided to split the project in two. The demonstrator has already flown and will now be used to research technologies for increasing the rotorcraft’s flight speed to over 450 kmph,” Andrei Shibitov said.

He added that the flight speed of the new helicopter was designed to exceed that of the existing ones by an impressive 50 percent. The maximum speed of existing helicopters does not exceed 300 kmph.
