Wouldn't be surprising given K9 thunder as well. DMRL may also be involved. It will be good if this is advanced more with SK in both naval realm and general armoured realm too.... K9 thunder is very good springboard for armoured vehicles and materials technology cooperation more broadly. Light...

Looks like laser warning receivers....I spot on fuselage too?....maybe part of testing new model out or training etc (if this is rarely seen on Turk AH-1Z). Something along lines of AVR-2 perhaps: https://man.fas.org/dod-101/sys/ac/equip/an-avr-2.htm...

you can search terms like "china" , "PRC", "Qing" and "cantonese" w.r.t my name on this forum and read older posts etc....some of which might provide light on what you seek https://defencehub.live/threads/history-and-culture-thread.738/page-3#post-124792...

Interesting @Paro @Joe Shearer @Gessler et al.

The objective failed (to dislodge Vietnam out of cambodia).....Vietnam stayed put in their intervention in Cambodia (Pol Pot was a CCP ally) for a further 10 years. It was a massive failure on china's part, especially as Vietnam has never forgotten that and has added to underlying long term...

Of course there, like with any very large country especially. Currently there is a very large power tussle between Xi faction and other factions in the CCP due to various pressures/faults that have intensified since covid.

Covers many of the points raised earlier in this thread:

Can't wait for some new pics this time.

@Exorcist ..... here is kharkiv area fellow: Vasyl Yosypovych, 63yo & his wife spent 74 days under occupation in the village used as [Russian] base to fire at #Kharkiv. He broke into [Russian] warehouse, neutralized ammunition & vehicles, stole documents and passed them to [Ukrainian]...

@Rajaraja Chola et al A slightly deeper look into the proposals:

Ukrainian Journalist Yuriy Butusov says that he and Ukrainian soldiers, while on reconnaissance, stole a Russian BMP-1 from a Captain Dmitry Furdui of the Russian 35th Separate Guards Motor Rifle Brigade, just 100m from enemy positions.

Good article (in The Week ) on LUH should be out soon.

bluegrass is one of my favourites... legend scruggs (RIP) playing his all time classic (he composed + first played in 1949) with an all-star ensemble the original tune was used extensively in the 1967 movie of bonnie + clyde car chase + getaway scenes...... hence why people always say this...

AKM certainly is a venerable platform....I have no major issue with it, it did the job for its time ridiculously well at its cost. You are correct that training on the rifle counts for so much too.

It has, SSS defence et al (I posted a bit earlier) Private companies have all the answers.....they just need a chance at large order + production.

I am being a bit harsh on it....but the design had number of flaws and the production quality (given state of govt ordinance factory) was not good. I would rather India just continued with FN....and moved from FAL to FNC. Pakistanis did lot better just license production of HK rifles, smgs...

You can read the background here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paki_(slur) The point is many Pakistanis (and others) do see it as a slur used in negative connotation given the precedence and context of it in various areas. It does have other original meaning/root and also has been...

No worries, this thread has re-hashed the talking points (in quite some detail) of this stuff a bunch of times already....hence why I just use allegories now :P ICU resident as in you are doing (doctor) residency in ICU? Or you are patient? If latter, please get better ASAP.

Only if you show you can control fever, does it mean you are serious about treating the underlying conditions (that led to the fever). If you continue playing in the wet rain and make things worse....you are then even less serious....at great damage to your body.
