Point of the video was clearly to show the proximity fuze, not warhead. Issue with this is that they are pure war systems. They are nothing special, you just put an RPG round on a drone and call it a day. That’s no way to run a business and make a profit if there is no war around.

Their age notwithstanding, ACVs are hopelessly outdated.

Wasted a whole decade and back to starting point.

You are right in light infantry brigades. They have their own atgm squads as part of the platoon. But if you look at Stryker BCTs and their 3 rifle companies each, each 3 rifle squad in one Stryker each have a single Javelin with few reloads. That’s 9 squads with 9 Javelins per company, which...

LAW is light, and this is a huge advantage for commando roles. RPG have one big advantage over it. At least 10 types of warheads for many roles. Both however have abysmal track record against modern tanks. Turkish infantry is greatly lacking in single troop(tek er) anti tank capability. RPG...

SpaceX’s frequency of launches guarantees price competitiveness. Reusable boosters is a bonus. In September of this year they launched 10 rockets, last month it was 9. With universal busses, small universities with small grants can now take up a Starlink mission rideshare for their cubes. Open...

Turns out still to be named Pars V and X moniker is just a placeholder until the official launch. Much bigger turret ring also points out to bigger turrets down the line. Pars V is a Boxer equivalent in size and mission profile. We might see plenty of interesting stuff in near future.

Our guy is back in action.

A new batch of modernized IFVs were also delivered.

Latest iteration of Pars is finally revealed. Dubbed Pars X, surprisingly. What’s the Pars IV next to it is though, i wonder. Never seen that before. More photos of Pars X

300th STA was delivered to land forces command. KKK originally ordered 184 Kaplan tracked and 76 Pars 4x4 for a total of 260 vehicles. In 2021 a second order was given and Kaplan was increased to 208 while Pars to 136 for a total of 344. 44 more vehicles are to be delivered. STA deliveries...

I don’t fully buy these evaluation scores and we don’t have a table for what’s what so too early to come to conclusions. K808 being so lower than Lazar is interesting to say the least but Pandur pricing makes sense.

More info came about Peru’s 60 million$ first batch APC program. “The Purchasing Agency reiterates that the Peruvian Army must reformulate the Technical Study for the purchase of 8x8 armored vehicles The Armed Forces Procurement Agency (ACFFAA) issued a new report indicating to the Peruvian...

Beringer makes wheel assemblies and more importantly brake systems for light vehicles like aircraft and motorbikes. Baylar also uses(or used to use) them. Aside from this being too early to say anything, an in production diesel engine like PD-170 failing in flight doesn’t mean much for a...

4 drones lost in last six months. While not losing pilots is good, this still a loss of at least 50 million dollars in 2 Ankas, an Aksungur and a TB2. Hope it’s not a sign of something.

Downed drone is a navy Aksungur.

He’d have a very tough time. I am yet to see one single destroyed or even disabled armored vehicle. If they were penetrated, no aftermath footage came out. Also haven’t seen any documentation of dead Israeli bodies inside Gaza. Still very foggy.

I like this so much. Kudos to the company, navy and SSB people that made this possible.

Let’s wait a bit before jumping into this bandwagon. Current Turkish policy re Palestine seems to be Palestinians staying in Palestine. Looks like US wants some percentage of Gazans to be transferred to countries in the region and is offering free credit to sweeten the deal. However nothing yet...
