Can any Iranian members provide some info on the Navy's current fleet strength? Finding reliable info online is proving to be difficult and I want to compare capabilities.
Edit: Mods please have a look at this thread. Some of the posts are ridiculous.
Its good news that we are holding Joint excercises. Start rebuilding the relationship that has been breaking down recently. :tup:
However I don't understand what they mean by 'supervising' :what:.
Ok this is getting boring now. I don't know why I'm wasting my time trying to point out your errors. The fact that your arguing about this with Cabatli who is a well known and respected member of this forum (especially in regards to Naval matters) is funny.
1. Your sole source is Global Fire...
@ Hossein2
Jamaran is a Mowj class frigate. The reason you think its a Destroyer is because (according to some Iranian members on the forum) the word for Frigate was mistranslated by Western Media sources when they printed the story.
Furthermore, Iran and Turkey have NO Destroyers in...
Milgems with ToT would be awesome. If this happens and Bangladesh can start building advanced warships 'in-house' then other nations would think twice about sending any subs into BD waters.
People need to stop underestimating BD. The potential is most definitely there.
Good news. We need to start investing more in bangladesh. Rapidly growing economy along with a huge workforce. They just need to kick start the industrialisation process in earnest.
Plus I would love to see a Milgem class corvette patrolling the bay of Bengal. :tup:
You thinking of invading Europe or something kardes? 5000 Altays is way too much. Huge tank battles are mostly a thing of the past now. 1000 is a good number along with the NGs.
Those 4000 extra Altays you want could be put to better use modernising the navy and infantry to a great extent...
I agree with you. I just wanted to point out that the Japanese have a more then capable missile defence system to shoot the Launch Vehicle down.
They probably won't do it anyway. The U.S doesn't want further tension in the Peninsula. Most probable scenario being:
Sattelite Launched > SLV...
The Japanese do have this capability. Their Atago Class Destroyers are equipped with SM-3 Missiles which have been successfully used by the US as an ASAT weapon.
The so called 'Free Kurdistan' map was drawn up by some Kurdish keyboard warriors with nothing better to do. It's got nothing to do with this discussion and thanks to Iran and Turkey there will never be such a place as 'free kurdistan'.
Before calling our soldiers cowards do some reasearch...
@ SyrianChristianPatriot
Turkey = Joke huh?
I guess you don't remember what happened circa 1996-97. Go educate yourself before spouting your Assad Propaganda in this forum.
We are NOT going to attack Syria. Many Turkish members have said this and demanded you provide (legitimate)...
It's a great jet no doubt. But engine is produced by GE so prone to US sanctions.
Threads like this make me realize how the US / Russia (and China soon) have such a large monopoly on the international arms market. Most countries could produce a decent fighter jet if they had an indeginous...
I'd go for the F-35. EF-2000 is a 4+ Gen aircraft with no stealth capability. The F-35's Sensors and avionics are also equal to / outperform the F-22s (According to some sources).
Though I must say i beleieve the ef2000 would outperform the F-35 in Air air superiority missons.
A2G Missions -...
Good point.
I think there would have to be a small re-design to incooperate a booster engine. That's the only way i can see SOM being able to hit 2,500km. A reduction in payload will also have to happen.
Great news! :yahoo:
Seeing as the TN is going to operate the new LHD as a 'mini AC' i'm guessing a TF-2000/ TF-100 (SM-2 Capable?) along with the 214TN AIP subs will be used in an escort role?
Coz this baby is going to be a sitting duck if adequate protection isn't provided.
Wow. This thread started off so positively. Can we please stick to the topic instead of silly 'missile' measuring contests. And Iranian brothers if you have nothing positive to contribute kindly leave.
