ISIS has released drone footage of knocked-out Turkish Leopard 2A4 tanks, M60T Sabra, Cobra armored vehicle, and ACV-15 IFV.
The equipment were damage near Syria’s northern town of Al-Bab. http://defense-watch.com/2016/12/24/photos...-syrias-al-bab/ |

QUOTE(Skidd Chung @ Jan 10 2017, 05:52 PM) if we really need the new fighter now, gripen is a sensible choice considering our budgetrafale is too expensive....for 18 gripen price,we can only get around 12 rafale... and the operating cost for gripen is definitely lower...it is a single seater and single engine fighter... capabilities wise, i would say that gripen is about 90-95% of rafale |

QUOTE(dongfeng21 @ Jan 10 2017, 08:29 PM) 2nd batch of su30 is one of my prefer choice. another one is trade-in hornet for super hornet....btw, i believe the main issue with russian jets is after sales support... and russia is currently sanctioned by us/nato/eu. we definitely dont want to be chided by these big powers.. another thing is mh17 issue This post has been edited by patt_sue: Jan 10 2017, 09:23 PM |

QUOTE(pziv2 @ Feb 11 2017, 12:35 AM) I'm aware of said decision, but the fact remains that such a proposal existed despite the practically of said proposal being seemingly obvious.. thus the comparison with the alleged Su-25 (a dedicated CAS aircraft) replacement by a trainer. its been done before.... dassault/dornier alpha jet,saab 105,korean t50/ta50/fa50 and even malaysia have hawk 200 series(combat variant of the aircraft)there's definitely some factor/intel/politics that as the public we're not privy to, but besides the increased prevalence of COIN/LIC operations I can't fathom their rationale. EDIT: found a related article from 2012. In it, the planned Yak-130 derived light attack plane never materialized. a SU-25 replacement is in the works but it's implied that it's a new design and not be from a Yak-130 https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/...acement-372103/ |

QUOTE(pziv2 @ Feb 11 2017, 02:44 PM) but none of them are of the same calibre or even of the same role as the SU-25! these examples are certainly light multirole aircraft that just happen to be able to be equipped as an attack plane. the SU-25 on the other hand is a dedicated CAS aircraft, and no matter how you cut it, any trainer derived attack aircraft will not have the endurance, armour or payload of a dedicated design.. russia got su34 if they need a heavy-hitter |
