i thought 120mm mortar up to 10km je
even Soltam don't reach that far right

You didn't read that post did you? I repeat for you

question is, did the US know/not know the sub was there. this pic doesn't prove that...

Not gonna happen, not just because of Russia sanction but also because of the unique SU-30MKM build.

MA just reporting omong kosong again, which is his job; Gripen huruf apapun doesn't fit TUDM requirement for 2 engines instead of 1.

Because ori SU30 has better performance than whatever China can currently cook up.

Made-in-China betul2 got made in China problem when it comes to high tech stuff like jet engines

for once, just once, can we buy something without having to make it an expensive custom jigsaw puzzle mix and match frankenstein job?

Oooooooo

Combat medic
Open season

buy C-5 Galaxy

but then limited by runway

will Indon Army compensate?
got stories last time, farmer invite NATO tankers to ram their old barns so they can collect the compensation and build new

sos?

right decision. the handgun replacement project needs to be wrapped up quick. Trump is not above cancelling a good project simply for political points.

Weapon: ATGM
Tactic: fight Arab army

Already disproved, got video of his fingers moving
Bodyguard kan tak suka open carry?

FTFY

During the 2003 invasion of Iraq the Challenger 2 tanks suffered no tank losses to enemy fire, although one was penetrated by an IED. This was, at the time, unprotected by Dorchester armour. The driver was injured. In one encounter within the urban area a Challenger 2 came under attack from irregular forces with machine guns and rocket propelled grenades. The driver's sight was damaged and while attempting to back away under the commander's directions, the other sights were damaged and the tank threw its tracks entering a ditch. It was hit directly by fourteen rocket propelled grenades from close range and a MILAN anti-tank missile. The crew survived remaining safe within the tank until the tank was recovered for repairs, the worst damage being to the sighting system. It was back in operation six hours later after repairs. One Challenger 2 operating near Basra survived being hit by 70 RPGs in another incident.

is what I've been saying we should buy more ATGMs.

still a dumb idea because Leo 3 is coming, and Challenger 2 + Dorchester probably beats old Leo 2A5

TLDR hurr durr military > all

^ and that kind of response shows you are equally dumb as a Barangnaik fag

he has a very valid point - I also don't know how operational our 1st sub, the training one, is.

The disclosures given by our ATM is nowhere near the level given by say US or UK. There they have Freedom of Information act, here everything is hidden, or covered by Official Secrets act... you know what I mean

No, these are quite well-trained and fanatical forces which have made significant trouble for US and NATO troops. Only the Republican Guard resisted the 2003 invasion, most of the militia and the regular army were abandoning their posts. It is also documented that the tank was hit by a variety of RPGs and even a Milan ATGM.

Are you sure we have thermobaric warheads? I don't think RPG-7 has "smart proximity fuse", I do know it has a 5-second fuse which can be used for airbursting if timed correctly. Edit: Nor have I seen any ATM troops with the tandem PG-7VR warhead.

Our Indon friend already posted the result of PG-7VL warhead, the advanced HEAT kind, on Leo 2 Revolution armour... 2nd time on this thread BTW.

Doesn't the public have the right to know what they are payijg for? Nobody is asking for top secret stuff, only routine information about actual asset use which any real enemy would already know.

No, it is not enough. Msia must have better disclosure than that. Do you think the US for example considers it a major intelligence weakness that the general status of its carriers is easily available on the Internet? No, it is simply being accountable to the public.

http://www.gonavy.jp/CVLocation.html

The people who actually pay for the carriers are being given the assurance that the assets are actually in use, have the capabilities paid for and able to meet the required defence parameters. If the ATM/Mindef wants to be taken seriously, they should also strive to be as open and forthcoming without the usual current situation where almost everything is kept hush hush whether or not it is a real threat. And if Mindef is more open about what Msia's security needs are and has less of a history of corrupt spending and lousy purchasing decisions, only then will it stand a chance of being seen in the public eye as anything more than a crony-feeding dictator's toy army.

But thats the general level of governance in Msia anyway, as was showcased to the world in MH 370 incident: don't ask questions, trust the word of your lord and masters while we cover up the shortfalls.

I don't know. I'm not talking about the Scorpenes. Is that what happened to it?
Will have to see it next time I'm in Melaka.

I accept that submarine ops by nature is particularly sensitive. However, do you think if I ask how many of our corvettes are ready, and how ready they are, I will get a straight answer?
Or if I ask how many of our armoured vehicles are fully-functioning?
Or if I ask how many of our infantry battalions are actually fully-manned and fully-equipped to BIS standard?
Or what are the factors in ATM's future defence planning?

I'm aware both Scorpenes are supposed to be operational. I'm talking about Msian-style "secrecy" in general.

Nice pic, thanks.

I was aware it was no longer in use since both Scorpenes are now operational. I think the issue has come up here before. But I was making a general point.
