I think it should be divided into 3 topics :Army, Navy, Airforce so that members can read more easily. Thank you for your interest in our military topic. Merci beaucoup mon ami !

It's done. Feel free to start new threads in the subforum sections (Army, Navy, AF) too as you feel necessary, or keep them all in the main news threads for each. Its your choice.

I split the old thread roughly into the new 3 ones as well as I could (like coastal battery defence is technically army compared to navy etc) with some inevitable overlapping. Anything you want to be switched around, let me know.

Recently, the picture of next-gen ATGM have been revealed, TLCT-3 ( abrr TLCT = tên lửa chống tăng mean Anti tank guided missile) . It have the same external appearance as Israel's Spike missiles. AFAIK, Vietnam MoD plan to buy technology from Israel. This is fire-and-forget ATGM with tandem HEAT that can make top attack.

This is a new weapons program to equip our armed forces to defeat main battle tanks, battle bunker, small ships, ... from potential enemy. Currently, few countries can manufacture this type of weapon. Even the Russian have not announced it yet.

Learn to experience from Russian full-scale invaded Ukraine, low-cost ATGM still defeated light amoured, fortified shelters, .... Vietnamese are research low-cost ATGM, you can see image above

A delegation of high-ranking Vietnamese officials visited Viettel Corp on 15 March 2025. Viettel is currently accelerating the production of modern weapons for the military.

Looking at the picture reported by state media, you can see VCM-B coastal defense system, AESA radar, ..Guided missiles are the sole weapons capable of achieving pinpoint accuracy and causing massive enemy casualties.

In 2025, Viettel Corp will hand over another coastal missile complex to coastal missile bridage in Central Vietnam.There is no doubt that Vietnam possess the strongest coastal missile defense force in Southeast Asia

The Liberation flag (Vietnamese : Cờ Giải Phóng), symbolizing the two regions of a country divided by enemies, was recreated by young officers in period military uniforms during the 50th Anniversary parade celebrating the liberation of South Vietnam and the Reunification of the country.

The flag is a part of the glorious history of the Vietnamese people. The flag of the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam and the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam (the Liberation Flag) was used from 1960 to 1975. This flag was modeled after the national flag of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, with half of the red replaced by blue. The flag features a yellow star on a red and blue background. The upper half represents the independent North. The blue half symbolizes the South, still under the control of the US and the Saigon regime, but also represents the South's struggle for peace and reunification (the blue of peace)
