What's new

Vietnam Defence Forum

Vietnam made rifles: the first batch of 50 israeli Galil assault rifles were successfully testfired. Now the mass production can begin. The rifles are manufactured at the new $100m Factory Z111 and will gradually replace AK-47s.

I guess his lesson didn't workout as expected so he has to come back again.
He is doing good PR in Europe. Vietnam should have a free trade agreement with the EU in the next few months.
the chinese are only willing to listen and negotiate if we are in a position of strength. but too bad: we started late with the modernization of the army and economy. we are miles behind them, but we still hold some secret jokers.
 
JF-17 is a great canditate to replace the old Mig-21 fleet.

The United States will start replacing its F-16C/Ds with F-35s soon. Maybe they will sell some F-16s to Vietnam for cheap price?

That would be very possible, Indonesia is getting 24 F-16's C/D block 52, with life extension and upgrade for $31 million each (including spare parts and maintenance contract).

Oh really? you don't want Chinese military products? Do you know that 80% of your weapons are Chinese? Do you know that the tank that rammed the gate of the Independence Palace is the Chinese Type 59? Do you know that most of your firearms are Chinese Type 56s?

doesn't know if i can calling other countries product is a junk or not, but it was very irresponsible comment made by some Pakistani member. China indeed has a lot progress in their research and industrial capability and they can offer a lot of good stuff to all armed forces around the world. But please look at context here, Vietnam just had been locked in a very serious dispute with China and they just one bullet away from the breaks of war. It would be very illogical if Vietnam bought armaments from China or China willing to selling some of their military products to Vietnam. The situation here is almost like you suggesting Pakistan to bought some Tejas or Pinaka missile launcher from India.

U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel will visit Vietnam soon this year. I bet he will present some gifts to the host: P-3 and possibly F-16 aircraft, too.

unless Vietnam, China resolve sea dispute and become allies, that is unlikely to happen.
