Azerbaijan Defence Programs & Military Development

RMI5,

Thanks for your views. I am just really curious how the commando forces on both sides are able to get across the front lines, especially when they're so heavily defended.

No, Such tunnels are easy to be built and don't even need much money either. even small fighting groups in Syrian Civil war, have built very long tunnels.

There is no need for such tunnels. Tunnels have use in civil wars and also for sending help to your forces in a blockade. In this case, there is no use for such tunnels.

No, too much conspiracy theory for no reason!


I agree. About tunnels, they have been used in Bosnian war, Syrian war as well. I think what author means are like incursion tunnels that North Korea built before, in which they were found by South Korea, and they were just useless and a waste of time and money.

Wow Zack, did you really create your account just to randomly declare me to be an Armenian? I am almost honored you are this focused and interested in my thoughts and motivations! lolz ;-)

So long as we're making baseless accusations, I hereby accuse you of being a Dashnak spy. Because who else would benefit from such Red Herrings? ;-)

So are you saying you are not the actual author of the article? ;-)

And are you saying that you are not here trying to promote your (or that of the "author you referenced") blog and your article? ;-)

Finally, are you seriously going to try to claim that you are somehow "objective", and are not, for example, Armenian? Because the article, despite all of its efforts, is clearly written by an Armenian sympathizer.

RMI5,

Thanks for your views. I am just really curious how the commando forces on both sides are able to get across the front lines, especially when they're so heavily defended.

That would be a very general question. it depends on different sections of border, how close both enemy soldier fronts are, is the neighborhood rural or urban or a farm or jungle, and many other different factors. Sometimes, both sides are so close that snipers of both side can shoot at the other front soldiers. In the recent conflict, there was many of this sniper wars. As a summary, the border is really long and each part of it is different from other parts. so, different techniques are needed to be used by commando forces.

Question about tunnels could came to mind of a person who never has been in the region and who does not know anything about region. We used to dispatch from Nakhchivan passing our positions, then armenians then cross whole Zangazur then occupied territories, then passing Armenian reserve forces, then their front line positions and then we used to snick something from our positions and bring it back to headquarters in Nakhchivan. Soil is mostly extremely hard or rocky. Some front line positions are less then 10 meters. You can hear how they talk, eat and snore.

Story about their reconnaissance team was trying to pass our front line is BS. They do it all the time as well as we do it. It is impossible to lock up it completely. On top of that most of the soldiers are ignorant and poorly trained on both sides. If you pay attention all Martyrs are from poor areas and from poor families who cannot afford their kids not to be sent on frontier.

I feel like I better shut up.

RMI5,

not every point is heavily defended there are areas where you can easily pass without detection
even locals on both sides know about them

conscripts everywhere except in Israel are poorly trained and poorly equipped
I would wish we would move to professional army but this is how it is

I thought pechora-2 was mobile :O any pictures of its radars by any chance?

P.S. Buk-mb is ukr/belarus modification, isn't it?

You might be confusing it with Pechora-2M.

It has new radars, SNR-125-2TM and P-18T.

P.S. Buk-mb is ukr/belarus modification, isn't it?

Belarus. But there is also Ukrainian contribution in the form of 80K6M radar (which replaces the 9S18M1 radar).

9A310MB launch vehicle.

Azeri coastguard revamps fleet with Israeli help - IHS Jane's 360

IHS Jane's can confirm that an Israel Shipyards order to deliver six Shaldag Mk V patrol boats and six Saar 62 offshore patrol vessel (OPVs), an order reportedly for two separate customers, in fact came from the same customer - the Azerbaijan Coast Guard (Sahil Mühafizsin).

This development came to light following the release on 18 July 2014 of images relating to the commissioning of a new 13,000 m 2 naval shipyard, staffed by nearly 100 specialist workers, at Turkan in Baku. The images showed details of the ongoing work on the vessels.

So far the new facility - itself also believed to have been built by Israel Shipyards - has constructed two 32.65 m, 95 ton Shaldag Mk V fast attack craft (pennants S301 and S302) using kits supplied by Israel Shipyards.
