Gempita AVS, the signal variant. It is armed with the Reutech Rogue RWS fitted with a 12.7mm machine gun. The vehicle took part in Eks Satria Perkasa in October, 2016.

but military aircraft（include helos） usually crash rate x3 more than civilian aircraft. 
if can insure, sure cost will be very high。

China, Malaysia militaries launch joint exercise to cement ties

SELANGOR, Malaysia, Nov. 23 (ChinaMil) -- The China-Malaysia joint military exercise codenamed "Peace and Friendship 2016", kicked off in Selangor of Malaysia on November 22, 2016.

Themed on humanitarian assistance joint operations, the exercise is divided into two phases, namely desktop deduction and actual-troop drill.

Nearly 300 troops in total will be put into the exercise by both sides with 195 Chinese servicepersons, who are from China's Central Military Commission (CMC) departments, the Southern Theater Command and the PLA Hong Kong Garrison.

General Fang Fenghui, member of China's Central Military Commission (CMC) and chief of the Joint Staff Department under the CMC, and Chief of the Malaysian Defense Force General Zulkifeli Bin Mohd Zin attended the exercise opening ceremony, they both delivered a speech at the ceremony.

Fang pointed out in his speech that the Chinese President Xi Jinping attaches great importance to the development of China-Malaysia comprehensive strategic partnership, and the Peace and Friendship-2016 joint military exercise is an important measure to implement the consensus reached by leaders of the two countries.

The exercise also serves as an important mechanism to promote the exchange and cooperation between the two miltaries, an important approach to improve their combat capability and an important platform for the two militaries to jointly cope with challenges and safeguard regional peace and stability, Fang said.

Fang hopes that the two militaries can make continuous joint efforts in combating terrorism, addressing maritime threats, safeguarding maritime security and promoting regional peace and stability.

China has always advocated peaceful resolution of disputes through friendly consultations and negotiations, Fang continued.

We have consistently opposed interference and undermining of the peace and stability in the South China Sea by any outside force as well as any actions that may complicate the situation or escalate tensions in the region, stated Fang.

Zulkifeli said in his speech that this joint exercise is a microcosm of the cooperation between China and Malaysia, which shows the friendly relations and the broad prospects of mutually beneficial cooperation between the two nations.

Zulkifeli called the joint exercise as a milestone marking the increasingly strengthened bilateral relations, and he believe that it will help strengthen ties and deepen the friendship between the two militaries and have a significant and profound impact on the relations between the two nations and their militaries.

Fang, Zulkifeli and Sitthichai, director of the joint exercise planning office of the Royal Thai Army Command observed together the jungle survival drill staged by the Chinese and Malaysian participating troops and inspected the joint exercise command post.

Chinese Ambassador to Malaysia Huang Huikang and Lieutenant General Tan Benhong, commander of the PLA Hong Kong Garrison, alsoattended the above-mentioned activities.

Indon defense will have to factor this development of PRC military nearer to their shore ... with or against them?

India's eastern neighbor Bangladesh acquired two diesel-electric submarines from China on November 14. After they enter service in 2017, they will become the first and only submarines in the Bangladeshi navy.

"It is difficult to fathom why Bangladesh, which does not encounter any conventional maritime-military threat, has inducted submarines in its navy," said Gurpreet Khurana, an Indian Navy captain and executive director of the National Maritime Foundation.

"Submarines are offensive weapons of sea denial and their only use would be to pose a threat in being for India and to complicate the latter's maritime security paradigm,"

Prakash also believes that the sale is a step in a long-standing Chinese policy of encircling India with client states who are dependent on China. Both India and China are significant weapon manufacturers, with India seeking to become one of the world's largest arms exporters, according to Bloomberg. Snatching regional markets from India is a logical act of competition.

In 2016, the active component of the U.S. Army of 479,000 soldiers shrank to the smallest it has been since before World War II, when it had some 269,000. The number of Army combat brigades is scheduled to decline to 30 by 2018, one third fewer than there were just in 2013. The U.S. Navy, with 273 ships, is about the same size as it was prior to America’s entry into World War I.

The U.S. Navy, with 273 ships, is about the same size as it was prior to America’s entry into World War I. At approximately 5,000 total aircraft, the U.S. Air Force is both the smallest and oldest it has been since its inception in 1947. The number of active duty squadrons in the Air Force is slated to decline to 39, less than half of the 70 that were available during Operation Desert Storm.

The number of active duty squadrons in the Air Force is slated to decline to 39, less than half of the 70 that were available during Operation Desert Storm. Army, Navy and Air Force end strengths are each about 40 percent smaller than they were at the end of the Cold War.

This is one of the main reasons why the Pentagon had to rely on more than a hundred thousand private contractors to provide the necessary logistics, sustainment and communications for its deployed forces when it went to war in Iraq and Afghanistan.

At the height of the Cold War, the U.S. maintained a two-and-a-half-war strategy: major, simultaneous wars against the Soviet Union and China plus another nation.

The Nixon Administration changed the sizing criteria to one-and-a-half-wars: a major war with the Soviet Union plus a second, possibly related, conflict in the Persian Gulf or on the Korean peninsula

Thus, a two-MRC U.S. force would consist of 10 Army divisions, two or three division-sized Marine Expeditionary Forces, 11 aircraft carriers, 120 large surface combatants, 38 large amphibious warfare ships, 200 strategic bombers, 60 tactical fighter wings, 400–500 tankers, 250 airlifters and some 75 maritime support ships.

Even the fight against Islamic terrorism strained the military’s capacity in some ways. The Army had to add nearly 75,000 active duty personnel and mobilize a large fraction of the National Guard just to handle the ongoing demands of Iraq, Afghanistan and its other worldwide commitments.

The civilian and military leadership of the Department of Defense (DoD) have publicly declared that the U.S. now faces five strategic threats: Russia, China, North Korea, Iran and global Islamic terrorism. Conflict with either of the first two would constitute a major war, not a regional contingency.

Both Russia and China have invested heavily in so-called anti-access and area denial capabilities (A2/AD) that are designed to counter erstwhile U.S. advantages, particularly in air and naval power. Russia is deploying its A2/AD capabilities in ways that could preclude U.S. and NATO military operations in the Baltic, Black and eastern Mediterranean Seas.

North Korea, a nuclear weapons state, has already deployed over a thousand ballistic missiles -- three hundred of which have the range to strike Japan and U.S. bases in the Western Pacific. Iran has ballistic missiles that can reach most of the Middle East. Tehran just received its first Russian S-300 air defense system. Hezbollah, the Shiite terrorist group, is reported to have an arsenal with tens of thousands of rockets and ballistic missiles. ISIS has employed Russian-made anti-tank guided missiles capable of destroying U.S.-made M-1 tanks operated by the Iraqi Army.

Yes, the U.S. military can penetrate current A2/AD defenses, but at what price? Let’s remember that the Air Force only has 186 F-22s, the plane that was designed to penetrate advanced air defenses, and there are no more where those came from.

The reality is that the U.S. military today is too small, with too few technological advantages and facing too many threats. There is now a very real possibility that in a future conflict, even one with a regional adversary, U.S. forces could suffer such high casualties that, regardless of the outcome, this country will lack the capabilities needed to deal with any other major contingency.

China has become the latest country to successfully test fire a hypersonic missile, it has been claimed.

A Chinese J-16 strike fighter test-fired the giant missile earlier this month, successfully destroying the target drone at a very long range, according to Popular Science.

Its experts analysed pictured of the launch, and concluded the missile was  19 feet long, and roughly 13 inches in diameter, meaning it could hit targets up to 300 miles away.

The pair analysed photos of a J16 taking off with two of the very long range air to air missile (VLRAAM)

'Reports are that the size would put into the category of a very long range air to air missile (VLRAAM) with ranges exceeding 300 km (roughly 186 miles), likely max out between 250 and 310 miles.'


'Additionally, the VLRAAM's powerful rocket engine will push it to Mach 6 speeds, which will increase the no escape zone (NEZ), that is the area where a target cannot outrun the missile, against even supersonic targets like stealth fighters,' they said.

A 2015 study in a Chinese scientific journal revealed the missile's potential flightpath.

It showed a VLRAAM, flying 15 km upward once it is released by a fighter jet, reaching a 30 km altitude.
