Vietnam Defence Forum

You guys stressed too much on "able to make"
I must say that "Vietnam is able to make whatever ... as long as there is demand"
In production line, the different sizes need very little change applied to.
From shells for heavy artillery, AAA to M1 carbine, M1 GarAnd, M16, 5.56 Galil 7.62 Galil. M60...
It is only ammunitions for Xuan Vinh, Vietnam need to import.
 
Kindly stay on topic "Vietnam Military News & Discussion" as far as possible.

Tip: If you think the post is a troll, please ignore it.
 
@BoQ77 @Viet

Vietnam has already self-produced ammunition for the AR-15 and M-16 for years. But it's the .223 Remington ammunition, not 5.56x45mm NATO ones.

So the news about Vietnam self-produces 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition is correct. It'll be used in the TAR-21 assault rifles, along with 7.62x51mm NATO for the Galazt DMR.
Ok thanks for the clarification :tup:

This further confirms that the UK doesn't have an independent nuclear policy, and Mike 2000 cannot refute this.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/wor...-to-tell-Russia-Britains-nuclear-secrets.html
You troll the British. I read the article, it says the British have full control on Trident's missiles, it's firing does not require any permission, neither satellites nor the codes of the US.

The article in the url you provided here says, the US reveals the serial numbers of all British Tridents to Russia. So Putin knows how many nuclear warheads are loaded on British submarines. That is a slap in the face of the British government but I consider it as a mild slap.

HANOI—India on Saturday agreed to provide Vietnam with a $500 million loan for defense purposes, a further sign of warming ties between two countries in separate territorial disputes with China.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Vietnamese counterpart Nguyen Xuan Phuc also announced after their meeting in Hanoi that Vietnam and India have upgraded their diplomatic relations to the level of comprehensive strategic partnership from strategic partnership.

“Our decision to upgrade our strategic partnership to a comprehensive strategic partnership will provide a new direction and momentum to our bilateral cooperation,” Mr. Modi said. “Our common efforts will also contribute to stability, security and prosperity in this region.”

The alliance between India and Vietnam is set to develop further in the wake of Mr. Modi’s visit. India is negotiating to sell supersonic Brahmos cruise missiles to Vietnam, a deal that might also include the stationing of Indian technicians there to maintain the hardware.

Defense analysts say the weapons are ideally suited to taking out naval targets. In seeking to upgrade military capabilities as China improves its own capabilities, Vietnam has emerged as the world’s eighth-largest arms importer from 2011 to 2015, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.

Military cooperation between the two countries has moved forward quickly over the past decade. There have been several high-ranking military exchanges, and in 2014 India signed an agreement to lend Vietnam $100 million to buy defense equipment.

Indian warships have also made a point of visiting Vietnamese ports, part of Hanoi’s own policy of encouraging more international navies into the contested waters of the South China Sea, where both Vietnam and China have overlapping claims to some of the world’s busiest shipping lanes. New Delhi, in turn, has made Vietnam a focal point of its policy to expand its economic and diplomatic ties in East Asia.

Vietnam and India on Saturday also signed an agreement for India’s Larsen & Toubro Ltd.to design and build vessels for the Vietnam Coast Guard, and to transfer shipbuilding technologies to Vietnam. The two countries also signed several other cooperation agreements, covering cybersecurity, information technology, health care, environment and naval-information issues.

The commercial relationship between India and Vietnam—two of Asia’s fastest-growing economies—is also deepening, aiming to triple trade to $15 billion by 2020. Indian energy firm ONGC Videsh Ltd. is working with Vietnam’s state-run oil company PetroVietnam to develop oil and gas reserves off Vietnam’s coast.

Preeti Saran, a senior official in India’s foreign ministry, told reporters in New Delhi on Thursday that negotiations have started for Indian energy firms to acquire additional exploration rights in Vietnamese waters. She also pointed to Tata Power Co. ’s $1.8 billion thermal-power project in Vietnam as a key to placing India among the top 10 investors in Vietnam.

Still, China’s expanding influence both in the South China Sea and the Indian Ocean colors Mr. Modi’s visit. India, too, has its own territorial dispute with China, with the two nations disagreeing on the exact location of the nearly 2,200-mile border that separates them.

Carlyle Thayer, emeritus professor and a Vietnam expert at the Australian Defence Force Academy, notes that the Indian leader’s visit to Vietnam follows high-level Chinese visits to Pakistan last year, where China is helping to finance the development and expansion of the deep-water port at Gwadar on the Arabian Sea. The port is an important component in Beijing’s efforts to expand trade and influence across Asia and into the Middle East and Africa.

Mr. Modi leaves Vietnam today for Hangzhou, China, where he will join U.S. President Barack Obama, Chinese President Xi Jinping and other world leaders for the Group of 20 summit.

A US-Vietnam Alliance: Prospects And Challenges


Anders Corr, Contributor

I cover international politics, security and political risk.
Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own.


China’s increasing militarization and persistent maritime claims against Vietnam threaten not only that country, but the international rule-based system of international law developed over the last century. The League of Nations, founded in 1919, and the United Nations, founded in 1945, were meant to be rule-based systems to decrease the risk of military conflict. Yet China refuses to follow international law, and seems to have forgotten the wretched history of wars that preceded these great peace-making institutions.

Indeed, China is determined to follow the chimera of its own territorial growth, at the expense of its neighbors. Perhaps China’s hand is forced by a public opinion starved of informational oxygen due to press restrictions. But as China controls the press, so should it control the overly nationalistic sentiment of its population. Regardless of where one stands on this rather pedantic debate about causes of the conflict, China’s territorial aggression is crystal clear.

To contain it requires increased bilateral and multilateral economic and defense cooperation between Asian-Pacific partners. A broad multilateral alliance is optimal to deter China from military conflict in Asia. But even bilateral alliances will help, including between the U.S. and Vietnam.

Due to current U.S. military and economic superiority over China, the U.S. is the linchpin bilateral alliance partner for claimant states in Asia that plan to defend their maritime or territorial rights, whether through military deterrence or economic sanctions. A strong U.S.-Vietnam alliance would strengthen immediate deterrence, leverage economic trade to influence China, decisively remove Vietnam from China and Russia’s camp, and progress Asia towards a stronger future multilateral alliance in which the U.S. is a leading participant and democratization of China is one of the goals.

An incipient U.S.-Vietnamese alliance should include greater economic, diplomatic, and military cooperation, and can be achieved by: overcoming political and value-based differences between the two countries; strengthening the U.S. defense commitment to Asia generally and Vietnam specifically; increasing economic integration between the U.S. and Vietnam; decreasing Vietnam’s economic and defense dependence on China and Russia; and decreasing U.S. economic dependence on China.

Alternative allies exist for Vietnam, in particular the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and Russia. But a strong bilateral alliance between the U.S. and Vietnam is an essential complement to its traditional participation with these two rather weak political entities.

Consensual multilateral alliances such as ASEAN cannot be relied upon to effectively stop China’s territorial and maritime growth. For example, China’s loan of just $600 million to Cambodia on July 15, three days after the Permanent Court of Arbitration award to the Philippines, probably stopped issuance of a stronger message on the South China Sea by ASEAN foreign ministers at their July 24 meeting. ASEAN will be irrelevant on China issues until it dispenses with Cambodia’s veto power.

Transforming ASEAN, if it happens at all, will take a long time. Meanwhile, Vietnam needs a stronger partner to resist China.

That partner will never be Russia, which depends on China’s economy for exports of oil, gas, and defense technology. The old diplomatic relationship between China and Russia, in which China simply followed Russia’s diplomatic lead in places like the United Nations, is no more. Now Russia is more likely to follow China’s lead. So Vietnam cannot rely on Russian troops or even Russian military technology, such as the six kilo-class submarines it recently purchased. What if, in a time of war, China told Russia to stop providing submarine technical expertise and delivering spare parts to Vietnam? When push comes to shove, Russia will follow the lead of China.

The U.S. is a great alternative ally for Vietnam, but it will take work and time. U.S. credibility in Asia and Europe is eroding and needs revival. The Philippines seems to have lost Scarborough Shoal, within its own exclusive economic zone (EEZ), even though it has a defense treaty with the U.S. and defense cooperation with Japan.

Ukraine lost Crimea to Russia despite the Budapest Memorandum of 1994, in which the U.S., U.K., and Russia gave security assurances to Ukraine in exchange for relinquishing its nuclear weapons. The U.S. has not demonstrated, of late, a willingness to go to war to defend allied territory, even where a formal written agreement exists. That reticence actually invites aggression. The U.S. should frankly acknowledge these failures in order to correct its strategy in future, and broadcast a new tougher stance against Russian and Chinese territorial expansionism. This will be important to strengthening U.S. alliances.

Vietnam will also be wary of an alliance with the U.S. because the U.S. prioritizes alliances with countries that are democratic, wealthy, engage in large amounts of trade with the U.S., and have no outstanding territorial conflicts. The more democratic, wealthy, and economically connected, the greater the likelihood that the U.S. will defend an ally. The Philippines and Ukraine, both of which are trying to increase the cohesion and depth of their defense alliances with the U.S. and other western democracies, are both more democratic than Vietnam. Neither country had a major ongoing territorial dispute when they signed security agreements with the U.S. Given the unfortunate track record the U.S. has in defending these two countries, Vietnam’s leadership will be understandably leery of putting too much trust in any U.S. security guarantees.

From the U.S. perspective, Vietnam’s relatively low absolute trade with the U.S., low scores on democracy and freedom of speech, small GDP, and recent history of territorial conflict with China and Cambodia, including Vietnam’s current maritime dispute with China in the South China Sea, make Vietnam a risky ally. The U.S. will avoid committing to a potentially entangling alliance that could yield low returns, anger its trading partner China, and potentially even draw the U.S. into war with China.


Despite all these obstacles, moving towards an alliance is the best option for both the U.S. and Vietnam. if China captures Vietnam’s maritime resources, China will be economically strengthened and militarily emboldened to capture more. If China increases its influence in Vietnamese politics, Vietnam could be used against the U.S. economically, diplomatically, and even militarily. Chinese client states such as North Korea and Cambodia create huge problems for the U.S. and allies in Asia.

If the U.S. fails to draw closer to Vietnam through this window of opportunity, Vietnam could irreconcilably join a pro-China orbit. As much as the domino theory has been discredited, there is a domino theory redux here. If Vietnam falls to Chinese influence, that will strengthen China and increase the chance that other countries will fall as well.

While the U.S. may not be the most certain of allies for a relatively poor and undemocratic country, it is better than nothing. Vietnam’s ability to defend its EEZ would be strengthened by closer economic integration and a defense alliance with the U.S. Deeply strengthened cooperation between the U.S., Vietnam, and other claimant countries, will be crucial over the next decade for Vietnam’s ability to defend its independence and international market access. Vietnamese hedging between China and the U.S. will not work.

Challenges to U.S.-Vietnamese cooperation abound. Vietnam and the U.S. lack trust given their history of war and different political values on issues such as democracy and freedom of speech. However, Vietnam is working hard to overcome this historical legacy. They recently allowed, for the first time, an Australian military commemoration of the war on Vietnamese soil.

China uses international business ties to influence both Vietnamese and U.S. politics, including through both the Democratic and Republican parties. With that influence, China discourages U.S. involvement in Asian politics, especially in the South China Sea. The economic elements of growing the U.S.-Vietnam alliance, for example economic sanctions on China and increased economic integration between Vietnam and the U.S., are therefore critical so that the project is not undermined.

These challenges can be overcome through five measures:

1) political decisions to reorient business ties away from China, and towards each other, for example through the Trans-Pacific Partnership;

2) increased development aid;

3) increased military-to-military agreements, training, aid, and cooperation;

4) increased intelligence sharing;

5) increased diplomacy, including of the Track-2 and citizen variety; and

6) the issuance of official apologies where appropriate and politically possible, including by the U.S. to Vietnam, and through a reconciliation between Vietnam and Vietnamese-Americans.

Vietnamese-Americans could be a powerful interest group in the U.S. promoting Vietnam’s independence from China. It would be in Vietnam and America’s interest to more effectively leverage them to counterbalance Chinese influence in U.S. politics. This might encourage the U.S. to stand up against China, which it needs to do in order to maintain its own political integrity and adherence to founding ideals.

I believe that Vietnam would prefer to remain neutral in the emerging conflict between its top trade partners, China and the U.S. But neutrality entails the risk of having Vietnam’s EEZ and maritime shipping lanes captured by China, its economy subjugated by a new Chinese mercantilism, and its independent foreign policy, over the next decade, subsumed by China. Alliance with the U.S. admittedly entails risk — including from diplomatic tension with China, military conflict, and economic costs due to potential sanctions against China.

This is the insoluble dilemma that Vietnam faces. There is no easy or perfect solution to countering China’s territorial expansion at the expense of Vietnam. But, a U.S.-Vietnamese defense alliance would strengthen both countries and thereby make military or economic conflict with China less likely. We should take the opportunity while we still have the chance.
 
Great stuffs. Though I miss news concerning Brahmos, no concrete acquisition plan. maybe the deal is hided in the $500 million loan.

As you can see, India is doing more for Vietnam in the military front than Japan and there is much more going on under the carpet.
 
China is more confidential about their weapons, unlike the West.

BTW, F-35 is also full of glitches by itself, that's why so many problems have been reported.
That just mean China simply does not report program issues. Unless you are willing to declare that you believe Chinese weapons programs are issues free. THAT would be laughable to highest degree.
 
Vietnam top leaders hail India’s position on disputed South China Sea
Published September 4, 2016

Vietnam’s top leaders on Saturday lauded India’s position on the disputed South China Sea (SCS) and sought its participation in oil and gas sectors of the Communist nation, as they hailed the upgradation of bilateral ties to Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.

Vietnam appreciates India’s principled position on the South China Sea issue, Communist Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong told Prime MinisterNarendra Modi when the latter called on him, sources said.“We must also intensify our coordination in regional and multilateral fora,” he told Modi, who reiterated that India always stood as a friend with Vietnam throughout history.

“It would be rare to find such a relationship which has lasted 2,000 years,” he told Trong and recalled the Vietnamese leader’s visit to India in 2013.


China is involved in a raging dispute with the Philippines, Vietnam, Taiwan, Malaysia and Brunei over ownership of territory in the SCS, a busy waterway through which India’s 50 per cent trade passes.

India supports freedom of navigation and over flight, and unimpeded commerce, based on the principles of international law, as reflected notably in the UNCLOS (United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea).

India believes that states should resolve disputes through peaceful means without threat or use of force and exercise self-restraint in the conduct of activities that could complicate or escalate disputes affecting peace and stability.

The Prime Minister said areas such as cyber security and information technology would benefit from the creation of a task force and help the two sides solve future problems.

Trong agreed that India-Vietnam relations were time tested and very durable. He said he had visited India twice in 2010 and 2013 and both visits had left very good impressions.

Noting that India is a major country with unique and age old civilisation and culture, he said Vietnamese people had never forgotten India’s strong support during Vietnam’s struggle for independence, sources said.

“The upgradation of relationship to Comprehensive Strategic Partnership was an indicator of the importance Vietnam attaches to India. It has strategic partnerships only with two other countries, Russia and China,” he said.

He also thanked Modi for India’s support to Vietnam’s armed forces and agreed with the Prime Minister that cooperation in cyber security was very important.

Prime Minister Modi also called on Vietnamese President Tran Dai Quang at the Presidential Palace on Saturday. “Our partnership will strengthen peace, development and security in the region,” President Quang told Modi.

Noting that Vietnam was a priority in India’s Act East policy, the Prime Minister lauded the strong foundation that had been laid for security and defence ties between the two countries, sources said.

President Quang said Vietnam fully supports India’s Act East Policy and thanked New Delhi for its consistent support to socio-economic development of this south east Asian nation.

He welcomed the upcoming 45th anniversary of diplomatic ties between India and Vietnam and 10th anniversary of the establishment of the Strategic Partnership which has been now elevated Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.

Prime Minister Modi recalled Quang’s visit to India in 2013 as Minister for Public Security. He said greater economic partnership would be a win-win for both countries. As ASEAN country coordinator for India during 2016-18, Vietnam can take forward relations between the two sides even further, he added.

President Quang called for frequent high-level exchanges to further strengthen political trust between the two sides.

He sought further support from India in investment, education, training and science and technology. He also sought more Indian participation in oil and gas sectors of Vietnam, sources said.

Both the leaders expressed great optimism for the future of India Vietnam ties. Prime Minister Modi invited Quang to visit India. President thanked him for the invitation.

Earlier, Prime Minister Modi met with Speaker of National Assembly Nguyen Thi Kim Ngan. The two leaders called for greater parliamentary exchanges between the two countries.

Ngan said she would be visiting India in December. She recalled long standing historical and cultural ties with India and said as a young girl she used to watch Indian films. The two leaders applauded the decision to upgrade the ties to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, sources said

Their form is so much better now. They used to lean back while shooting an assault rifle, and I wondered how they could be allowed to make such amateur mistake.
 
I'm sure they know this, but lack the technology.

Air power have proven to be too effective to ignore.
the emergence of air power has changed everything in wars. in the second world war, japanese bombers Mitsubishi G3M took off from Saigon airbase, loaded by 500 kg armor piercing bombs, attacked two british battleships Prince of Wales and Repulse in the South China sea (1941). when the battleships were sunk, the fate of Singapore was sealed. the time of battleship was over. found some nice drawing pictures, better than photographs.

With drone technology you can add a layer of support/asset to all branches of the Vietnamese military. If you keep up with the war in Syria, drones are being used to monitor enemy position. Not only that, drone application in the military are countless.

Instead of R&D in aircraft and warship which have too many components, Vietnam should focus on drones and innovate in a direction they want. drones for ship based air defense for starter.
