If the Indonesians have idea of putting 2 crew + 10 Rifleman inside the Pandur II, they must recruit skinny soldiers. I have been inside a Portuguese one and when we put 8 men inside with all their weapons, bags and ammo their is no place for oxygen! Thanks

The trowsers are DPM and the upper is Multicam. All will be replaced in 2019 by new one. https://defence.pk/pdf/threads/portuguese-army-new-cammo.583795/#post-10915698 Thanks

NATO SOF operators all look very similair (use the same gear), this is Portuguese FOE Thanks

In the Army we use home made P/PRC-501 at Section Level and P/PRC-525 at Platoon level http://www.eid.pt/documentos/catalogos/online/prc-525_ed1_pt.pdf https://historiadastransmissoes.wordpress.com/2012/01/18/er-pprc-501/ There will be new rádios (home made too) soon Thanks This...

Its a sh**t! We are introducing a new cammo/equipment for individual soldier, new helmet, all Portuguese made. They are on the "Equipment & Gear" Section. All Army/Navy/Air Force radios are built in Portugal. Most Military Software programs were developed in Portugal. We build the Pandur II 8x8...

The Portuguese Army Bought 139 Spanish Armoured Vamtac Uro ST5. First 4 allready delivered this week Thanks

Portuguese Army new Cammo and equipment Thanks

Yesterday they released more 47million for the Air Force, more AW119Kx are caming. The reality is we have very good relations with Leonardo, and the choppers were allready built. Thanks

There seems to be 8 Regs of T80UD + 12 Regs of AZ + 8 Regs of AK + 6 Regs of T85IIAP + 13 Regs of T69IIMP/T59M/T59MII You cant go numeric, there are Armoured Reconnaissance Regiments with only 26 MBTs As AK-I is entering service (21 in each of the 6 existing Armoured Regiments, mixed with the...

Thats right, Portuguese Air Force have allready confirmed this together with F16V upgrade, they said its 10% of the cost of bying new aircraft (F35) Thanks

Sorry Mr. MK, P3 Orion will work just fine, you just have to employ it along TASMO (Tactical Air Support Maritime Operations) NATO regulations. Its just part of a big team of Aircraft with several jobs, together they will solve all the needs the Navy has. You are looking to the PAF as it will...

Sometimes the difference is not big. Take a look at Golra The M48A5 are "stored in the boneyard to be scraped" side-by-side with T69IIMP that were "running" and were modified to COIN operations for FC.

I agree! As JF17 becames the main Air Defence Platform, the F16 becames the main attack platform. It will be them to carry operations inside enemy territory (Your favorit India!) And thats very good, very clever. PAF is doing a very good aircraft fleet management. JF17 will replace F16 in Air...

I was roung before! 12x M109+6 towed 130mm 12x M198+6 towed 130mm Thanks

No. I spent 3 years in Infantry Battalion on Azores Islands and 2 years in the 4th Cavalry Regiment (M60A3TTS at that tyme). I was the equivalente to your REME detachment. In Portugal we have an old say "God save us from our own artillery, and we will take care of the enemy" Thanks

So +7 Regiments...

Sorry, you were right! Just discover that PA SP Medium Regiments have 12x SP 155mm & 6x towed 130mm That justifies the extra Regiments in IABG But I dont like the idea of mixing SP and towed guns. When I started in the Portuguese Army, my Brigade had 18x towed M101A1 105mm & 6x SP M109A2 155mm...

They are Junk at Golra
