End of the day is pinoy pride.
Ill equipped and poorly coordinated. Resulted in their demise.

Who the hell go to a conflict area in soft skin trucks. It like a sitting duck. Even outdated apc like bmp is a better choice. Though a rpg hit it dead in its tracks.

Malaysia should just shut down the border with PH.
if PH complain, just say to them the border will only open back after all malaysia hostages arrive back to Malaysia safe and alive.

The issue however, it a sea border so it hard to enforced unless u have plenty of boats.

Some still can slip through.

Right now with the orders from the MKN and Government of Sabah all economic trade and barter trade with Indo and Philippines are suspended

so, that means if i were a pinoy fisherman, i can just ask stupid and continue sailing even though the RMN is screaming at me with a microphone?  mega_shok.gif

Technically, yes. Until u reach pinoy border, rmn will stop chasing you.

Unless u start shooting at them. Then rmn would be more than happy to shoot you with the oto 76mm to pieces. Even the 57mm pack a punch for a small boat.

First video, if they're against trained terrorist, they're all dead. Watch most vehicle dynamic training from US trainers also more beneficial.

Don't worry....these people are not really military experts....their opinion is still based on the faulty GlobalFirePower rank....

Real military experts would talk about types of armaments....instead of percentage of GDP spending and numbers military personnel
*
But there a silver truth

We dont spend enough on military. The armed forces have always ask fot extra fund. The bean counters are refusing

Now the issue a big huhua, just want to spend

Too little to late. Even if we spent now, we will only get 3-4years down the road.

I doubt f35 is a proper aircraft to replace A10.
Going into hot battlefield, hunt enemy tank and awesome vlose air support.
I doubt not many aircraft as capable as a10 and su25.

The only advantage of the f35 over the a10 is its stealth capabilities will allow it to move in deeper into enemy's territory without being detected.Other than that,the f35 loss in every other aspects against the a10.

Technically also wrong

Once in visual range, f35 lose out to a10.

Then only real advantage for the f35 to win a dog fight is BVR capability

T72 was considered a medium tank before the MBT desigination.

All the T series are considered medium tank as they focus on mobility more than amour. Amata platform is the diversion the of that principles.

M1 Abram was first designated a heavy tank in development similarly before the MBT desigination.

It an APC, dont expect to have tank protection armor level la. Even if you see the BMP3, it cant really stand a RPG7 hit without immobilization unless fitted with ERA bricks

Even the bradley is not so well protected as claimed.

Then again, it a battle field taxi as what most ppl will call it. It go, send troops and move fast away

but the russian one all team using same tank (russian tank), it more to test their crew ability.

meanwhile this one they bring their own tank and compete whose the best.

The western tank gun variant is almost the same L44 or the longer barrel L55. Gun performace will not vary much. Same goes to the fire control system, capacibility on paper again match more or less the same.

So it down to creq skill as well.

No body gonna test their tank armour to be honest. U want shot a live sabot on on tank to test armour performance
