it's nothing concrete right now but considering that most of the toolings for the aircraft is in georgia (and ulan ude is doing mainly overhaul), it's understandable that they wanna find newer attack aircraft

oso, while the design is from yak-130, they may gonna do plenty of changes. it's not really a far fetch idea tho, since sepecat jaguar was also designed as a trainer. besides, i think while this new aircraft gon replace the frogfoot, it may not exactly gonna be the "brrrrt lite" of su-25. instead, it gonna rely on its FLIR and targetting pods to find, target and destroy enemy defences

There's Namer as well as its predecessor, Nagmachon, Achzarit and Nakpadon


armata oso have ifv version

oso, inb4 "mbt-derived design dun count"

kek no. nobody stupid enuf to deploy aircraft carrier alone wothout the entire task group

haah?

look at price la

most of the time they are operating in their former african colonies, which has limited infra to support heavy tracked vehicle

oso, french are also less reliant on supply chain and most of the time they have to operate for days/weeks without proper logistical support (beyond occasional food/ammo/medic resupply by helicopter). operation serval really shows how the frenchies roll

Shit tank beats having no tanks at all. that's true since ww2

btw during the borders war the saffers had problem fighting ww2-era T-34 with the panhard aml. If the panhard and ratel (similar to our sibmas) had problem fighting T-34, T-55 would rip these 2 several new assholes.

when T-55 finally showed up, the saffers were forced to withdraw both vehicles and replace with olifant

exactly. hence the point; " (not) anything also can be used to counter a T-55."

Also, thing is, yes ratel and panhard do saw more anti armor action than olifant itself. it was only when the angolan and cuban start fielding T-55 (and even T-62) that they start fielding olifant.

reason, simple: mobility. them angolan (and its african allies) were pretty ill trained that panhard and ratel ran circles around them

promo chinook ahead of lima?

typical obnoxious,self entitled penang pipu. worse than bangso syurgo pipu

contract law la. plenty of similar case is malaysia oso (usually in o&g business like selling off unprofitable ships and rigs)

hell even tony fernandes buy airasia for rm1

save who?

basically because unker sam dun wan to sell their top planes (they actually wanna shove F-20 to malaysia, when they supply F-16 to thailand,indonesia and singapore)

we eventually said "fark u and yo planes" and bought Mig-29 instead. shitstorm ensues and clinton actually called dr.m and this time, malaysia had better bargaining power (sell us better planes or fark off). those F/A-18 was to save face.

there's also prob with us sanction. if 2 of US closer allies (indon and paki) got sanction, them sanctioning us (which wasn't as close as those two) is a real possibility

kek biasalah, wannabe contrarian. spell rafale also kenot but wanna spew shit
