Do you have plans to add Tracks and other utility vehicles to the Myanmar Army Equipment list?

I am now adding radars such as YLC-2V SLC-2,air search radars,early warning radars and etc at the Myanmar Army equipments page ang myanmar air force page.After adding radars,I'll do that.

New version of the Mk3

From the video related to the naval exercises of this month, in addition to the view of the Kilo class submarine, there are other news.
1) on the frigate F11 - Aung Zeya they replaced the anti-ship missiles with the C-802s

2) on the Anawrahta (771) and Bayinnaung (772) corvettes they replaced the US Bofors 40mm twin monts with what looks like a single Bofors 40mm L / 60, which looks modified, behind it you can see that they also installed a fire control radar.

Certainly on these 2 corvettes over the years the technicians of the Myanmar Navy have experimented with many systems and many configurations

Kh 35 from F 11 are replsced with C 802AK as a pa part of standardization programme.
Those Kh 35 are converted into land based coastal defence missiles.

771 & 772 are constantly upgraded from time to time.

Good observation bro...

I hope that some of the users of this forum can post better photos of the two corvettes 771 and 772 in that tutorial, so that I can confirm or disprove some assumptions that have come to my mind.
This single 40mm Bofors system as well as being guided by a radar, I hypothesize that the Myanmar technicians have also possibly modified it for remote use without gunners on the system, to achieve this the system should have a higher number of ammunition ready to be used and not just the 4 used in manual loading, so I think it has some updates.

New version of the Mk3

It is quite confusing in that is the army going to replace the current Ma series with the new ones that is modernised with rails and stuff

or replace it with the bull pup variants? Like if they are focusing purely on the first variant then logically the bull pup design should have been discarded but now it is also getting updated???

What's more confusing are the names I don't know what to call them anymore. Technicality this would be the MA2Mk3.mk2
We have a Jane article about the sub.

MA2 mk4?

Will Myanmar buy additional Kilo submarine from Russia/China? Myanmar's neighbours are building a good submarine fleet however Myanmar navy is stuck with an old Indian submarine. It's not enough dude, order more kilos before Thailand and Bangladesh orders better submarines
