Pakistan's Artillery Upgrade Discussions

Ok, first I understand your point of view. But some things has nothing to do with puppet state or not puppet state.

Gerald Bull was later in his life US citizen that developed weapons and his howitzer technology is developed in USA and in one stage of his life he transferred that technology developed in USA and in part in Canada to Denel in South Africa. Any design and or technology developed in US and in case of transfer or sale under US law is required to have clearance of State Department office of Munitions Control in order to sale internationally. Gerald got approval so he was able to transfer technology to Denel. But that does not means that Denel can sell US technology again to third party without again seeking approval.

If you think that you can sale any peace of hardware or technology for military use and not just you but any country(it is not related to South Africa only) in world that is in part or fully developed or produced in US without their approval you are wrong.

In case of G-6 or any associated weapon with this design you are not just selling your own product and or design but a design developed in USA.

And you have many weapons system for example developed with technology from Israel and they will ask you also if you have permit to sale their technology to third party if you want to sale their designs in part or full.

This is in accordance of many domestic and international laws that are connected and regulate arms sale. Nothing to do with puppet or not.

And that is just one point of view...

One example of other point of view.

You have tried to sale in recent years weapons to Syria.

Than it came this:
USA: US WARNING TO SOUTH AFRICA OVER WEAPONS SALE TO SYRIA

And this was why in some cases you could have made deals:
"Because of the international stature of South African President Nelson Mandela, the United States has up to now been willing to overlook the close ties he maintains with nations at odds with the United States, including Libya and Cuba."

But president Mandela is not longer among as living so they don't care any more about media picture related to South Africa and they will not turn a blind eye.

Did you finish sale of 650 millions USD weapons to Syria?

Nora is fully developed in Serbia, no other party can stop sales as no third party technology is involved. That is one point of view, and about other we proved that despite heavy sanctions or other meddling of third parties we always honored our deals for example take Iraq.

I wish you and South Africa all the best...And let the best weapon win :)

Any idea what it means ?
 
Developed by Serbia, the 50km-range TV / DataLink guided land-to-land Kosava-1 faction has been sold to Pakistan.
Why tv guided for land attack ? Is this for targeting high value target ? Or some sort of long distance anti armour missile ... By the way whats thw cost of the system
 
Kosava 1 is in its later phase of flight is guided weapon via data-link using TV/IR head for terminal guidance. Operator can chose and lock on any target. Would that be a fortification, command post or command vehicle, tank, ship, section of bridge or something else that 100kg warhead can damage or destroy it on weapons officer to decide based on orders, battlefield condition, possibilities of system he uses, importance and value of target.

It is made to be launched from a same canisters like Alas/Lorana system, and it is primary designed to be used from a new Modular MLRS Morava that Serbia has developed. It is cheaper to operate than Alas and has greater range than basic Alas missile system. It is possible to use this type of weapon system from ground type launcher -MLRS- or from ship(smaller patrol ships, corvettes and frigates) and it is possible to make similar air launched weapon that will have greater range(approximately 75km) from ground launched if launched from airplane at large height above 7000 meters.

MLRS Morava can fire newly developed Grad 122mm rocket with 52km range, Oganj 128mm correctable rocket with 50km range(very precise rocket with a small CEP), all other Grad and Oganj rocket, Plamen 128mm rocket with 12.5km range, 107mm rocket with 11.5km range, Kosava guided rocket and Alas guided missile.

It is one of the best modular rocket system in world accompanied with many different types of rocket and missiles that allows him to resolve any tactical situation by simple changing ammunition.

The Aleksandar 155mm 8x8 self-propelled howitzer was also launched during the Serbian defense exhibition in June 2017. This new artillery system is based on the NORA B-52, a 155 mm/52-caliber self-propelled howitzer weapon system also developed in Serbia by Yugoimport.

The main feature of the new Aleksandar is the use of a fully automatic loading system mounted at the rear of main gun which has a total of 12 rounds ready to the fire.

To increase the speed for the reload of ammunition, 12 additional ammunition are stored in a storage box located at the rear of the crew cab. In a few seconds, the automatic loading system can be reloaded and continue firing operations.

The Aleksandar has a maximum firing range of 32,5 km with standard ammunition and 52 km with the 155 mm HE ERFB RA/BB (VLAP), a new generation of very long range artillery projectiles designed for importantly improving operational range performances of a modern towed and self-propelled 155 mm gun - howitzers with 39, 45 and 52 caliber barrel length.
