Meh, would not align with the US at any cost. The lessons from Ukraine, Philippines and even South Vietnam were learned very well.

Might be for the the 1241.RE (Tarantul-III class) missile boats to replace their P-15M/21 missles. The M7 to M10 is a no-go because they'll get different missile systems.

For the third pair of Gepard ships, there may be a possibilty. But for the first four, I doubt it. Adding the BrahMos/Yakhont/Klub would require the redesign of existing ship, which only applies for the third pair. We all know that the only possible space for a VLS system on Gepard class...

I'm not looking forward to the air-launched and surface-launched BrahMos. We have other plans for the Su-30MK2V and surface ships.

The model in frame is possibly the new DN-4000 class OPV for Vietnam Coast Guard.

Just think of them as the unofficial news agency of the Vietnamese Armed Forces. Basically, ComCom is a group of people that have personal access to restricted military facilities/bases and can publish several information that the official military news agency (QĐND Online or QPVN) cannot show.

A new model of Vietnamese indigenous UAV has appeared. It's called "UAV-04". Its main purpose is flying target for Su-30MK2V and S-300PMU-2. However, it can be fitted with several reconnaissance equipment (Luneberg lens, Synthetic Aperture Radar, Imaging Camera etc.) and even a warhead. So it...

True, but RPG lacks the range while ATGM lacks the flexibility and cannot perform NLOS attack. And yes, I'm talking about SACLOS ATGM like Konkurs and Kornet, not something we don't have like Spike NLOS.

So let me translate this for you, in case you don't understand. Bold: Meaning we have zeroed the coordinate of the target way before they arrive, along with reconnaissance for better updates of the enemy movement. Underline: In other word, "Ambush" and "cannot be easily seen". Didn't know any...

I would like to see how "modern" IFV and APC, like BMP-2/3 and/or Bradley.. etc.. survive against a well-placed pre-aimed 85mm round from a concealed T-34. Period. Edit: I think people would prefer to stay inside a tank with 85mm gun, rather than staying outside against enemy armored vehicles...

Same aircraft, after overhaul. By the way, Su-27SK bort 6005 had extensive damage in the hull, not just an engine fire from bird strike. The cost of repair was more than half of a brand new Su-30MK2V, so it remains there. That doesn't mean we can't fix the Su-27 and Su-30 fleet, otherwise...

The pilot trainee was only 22 years old.

A L-39 jet trainer of the VPAF has crashed. This is a single-pilot flight, so there was no instructor on board, only the pilot trainee. The aircraft suffered technical malfunction during the flight, the pilot requested to stay on aircraft to attempt emergency landing. Sadly, he was killed...

Well, whatever he or she said about the Su-27 maintenance and overhaul capability, the Russians would like to disagree. Of course, you can only hear verbal and informal statement, not officially on media. Prove me wrong... if you can. :lol::lol:

Man, you read that first on ComCom, didn't you? :what::what:

Not sure if our Strela-10s have been upgraded to M4 standard or not, but M3 is definitely sure. And, 3 out of several Sukhoi test pilots in Vietnam to train highly difficult flying techniques :p::p: I guess you guys and gals can recognize them.

* Strela-10M3 :p:

Well, a live-firing exercise by a Vietnamese mechanized infantry battalion. No HD footage of division and/or combined arms exercises yet, as the Armed Forces rarely releases those footage.

8-12 missiles per boat is more than enough. We're talking about supersonic heavy missiles, not the smaller 3M24UE/KCT-15 :yahoo::yahoo:

They're designed for hit-and-run tactic from stand-off range and don't operate independently at all. Look at them as missile-carrying platforms, instead of individual combat ships, and you will see.
