Japan Largest Warship To Be Deployed To South China Sea Japan plans to deploy its largest warship, Helicopter Destroyer LZUMO, on a three-month tour through the South China Sea beginning in May, three sources said, in its biggest show of naval force in the region since World War Two. The LZUMO helicopter carrier, commissioned only two years ago, will make stops in Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines and Sri Lanka before joining the Malabar joint naval exercise with Indian and U.S. naval vessels in the Indian Ocean in July. The Izumo-class helicopter destroyer or 22DDH is a type of new helicopter carrier class constructed for the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF). The ships of this class will be the largest surface combatants of the JMSDF. The ship carries up to 28 aircraft. However, only 7 ASW helicopters and 2 search and rescue (SAR) helicopters are planned for the initial aircraft complement. For other operations, 400 troops and 50 3.5 ton trucks (or equivalent equipment) can also be carried. The flight deck has 5 helicopter landing spots that allow simultaneous landings or take-offs. The ship is equipped with 2 Phalanx CIWS and 2 SeaRAM for its defense. Japan wants to invite Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who has pushed ties with China in recent months as he has criticised the old alliance with the United States, to visit the Izumo when it visits Subic Bay, about 100 km (62 miles) west of Manila. President Rodrigo Duterte said he’ll visit if he has time. Japan warship deployment comes as the United States under President Donald Trump appears to be taking a tougher line with China. Washington has criticised China's construction of man-made islands and a build-up of military facilities that it worries could be used to restrict free movement. |

QUOTE(lokideangelus @ Mar 17 2017, 09:33 AM) err, some computers, medical equipment and treatment are developed by Israel , so how ? Its not a valid argument. Msia don't have an attack heli, msia does need some. Its either American apache, kiowa or Russian night hunter or alligator. There are more dedicated attack helicopters than those that you list.Also, basic attack missions apart from anti-tank duties can also be taken by armed helicopters. They may not be as capable, but they are much cheaper, have basic observation & targeting capabilities, and are definitely better than nothing. |

Is Israel imposing 'apartheid' on Palestinians?
The UN Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia has issued a report which condemned the Israeli government for its treatment of Palestinians. It says Israel is violating three international laws that list apartheid as a crime against humanity. The authors call Israel an apartheid regime, saying it operates a system of divide and rule. But the office of the UN Secretary General has distanced itself from the report. And the Israeli government says it's an attempt to smear the only 'true democracy' in the Middle East. So, will this UN report help or hinder the cause of the Palestinians? Turkey about to buy S-400 from Russia? Turkey has announced its wish to obtain Russia’s loan to buy weapons, including S-400 (NATO reporting name: SA-21 Growler) air defense missile systems, Rostec state corporation CEO Sergey Chemezov told the Rossiya-24 TV channel on Tuesday. Turkish Defense Minister said that Ankara and Moscow made certain progress in talks on delivery of Russian-made S-400 air defense systems to Turkey, but the sides are still not ready to strike a deal. "The Russian S-400 system will not be integrated into NATO missile defense system," the Turkish defense minister said, RIA Novosti reported. Kosovo's president plans to build a national army |

QUOTE(atreyuangel @ Mar 17 2017, 02:43 PM) Malaysia never a fan of Apache Malaysia should have more MDs. One squadron for each division. The full attack helicopter like apache or zulu only tag with the main armour brigade. More efficient. Also the Md can be use for specops.Seems like we used to be gossiped with the Rooivalk (TD Rejected the idea) the Tiger and for some time the Zulu Cobra I too like Zulu Cobra |

QUOTE Malaysian defense: Budget hinders military asset procurement By: Mike Yeo, March 15, 2017 MELBOURNE, Australia — Malaysia’s military continues to struggle to implement plans to recapitalize its assets, as the government’s budget is battered by slow economic growth mainly due to falling oil revenues. As a result, major procurement programs for the Malaysian Armed Forces have mostly been put on hold even as existing platforms rapidly approach obsolescence. For the Royal Malaysian Air Force, this means that badly needed fighters, trainers, helicopters and maritime patrol aircraft will unlikely be acquired in the short to medium term. Situated alongside the vital maritime trade routes and the hotly disputed islands of the South China Sea of which it partly claims, Malaysia faces a unique geographical challenge, as its territory is split by the South China Sea into two separate landmasses 365 miles apart at its narrowest point. This has had the effect of spreading the RMAF thinner, with the service recently moving a squadron of BAE Hawk 108/208 light attack aircraft to eastern Malaysia in response to continuing unrest and lawlessness in neighboring southern Philippines. This has spilled over into Malaysia on a number of occasions in the form of kidnappings and even an armed insurrection in 2013 that necessitated a military operation, including airstrikes by RMAF aircraft, to it put down. Malaysia’s $3.6 billion 2017 defense budget represented a 13 percent drop from 2016’s budget. And it represents 1.2 percent of gross domestic product, taking defense spending in real terms down to 2002 levels. The budget includes $104 million to the RMAF for procurement, but as Malaysian defense analyst Dzirhan Mahadzir told Defense News, this will be used to pay for ongoing programs rather than new acquisitions.

The Indonesian Marines this year is expecting delivery of around 30 more BMP-3F to replace the PT-76.
QUOTE TNI AL Perbarui Alutsita, Ada Apa? Penulis Aan Imam Marzuki - 16 Maret 2017 ![]() MALANGTODAY.NET– TNI Angkatan Laut terus berbenah dengan mendatangkan berbagai alat utama sistem pertahanan (alutsita). Hal tersebut dilakukan untuk menjadikan Korps Marinir berkelas dunia. KepaIa Staf TNI Angkatan Laut (KSAL) Laksamana TNI, Ade Supandi, mengatakan TNI AL akan terus memodernisasi alat utama sistem persenjataan melalui kebijakan minimum essential force (MEF). “Untuk melengkapi Korps Marinir agar memiliki postur sebagai marinir yang betul-betul kelas dunia, maka pengadaan kendaraan tempur akan terus ditambah,” jawabnya. Ia menyebutkan, ada beberapa alutsista yang akan diperbarui di antaranya, mengganti kendaraan tempur tank PT76 buatan 1960 yang sudah tua dengan BMP-3F. Dikutip dari Antara, Ade menyatakan tahun ini BMP-3F akan masuk sekitar 30 unit. “Kami juga akan lengkapi dengan kapal pengangkut kendaraan artileri BTR. Karena BTR kita sebagian di Lebanon, dari 11 unit baru datang empat unit yang datang,” ujarnya.
