I believe the correct designation for mobile artillery is "self-propelled artillery."

Do you have the spec on that Gatling? What's the rounds per minute? Range? Caliber?

Nothing a thousand mini-sub cannot handle. Pipe dream, but probable.

Nice. The first country with a space elevator will rule space.

LOL obvious troll. There are no other reasons for this damnable persistence. I'd say that UAV is not bad for a country that eats rice and fish sauce to survive. Imagine the possibilities when their newborn are kept nourished to fully develop their brain. So much potential to cultivate. I...

Anybody here able to provide update on Vietnamese space development? Military or otherwise?

If there was ever a nation that can win a modern war with RC planes, it's Vietnam.

Now if they can fit an early detection radar or Brahmos missile on that. Too slow to weaponize. If fitted for Kamikaze it will never make it pass a ships first line of defense. If they can triple the range it's perfect for SCS reconnaissance.

So I thought maybe training is overrated. Rome had a professional army, and it was sacked by barbarians. And who would think that booby traps still work in this day and age. Quite effective too, that is undeniable. So maybe, just maybe, all that glamorous hardware and gear is the trigger that...

I heard it had something to do with the wrong flag.

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...

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.

LOL. I had expected more from Dynasties that changed the names of their population. The age of superstition is still upon us apparently. Definitely outgunned. Still, asymmetric warfare could have worn down the French. No matter, there is still time for a rematch. Developing a SAM system with...

Noted. Can anyone clarify if it's going to be T-90MS or T-90A?

FDI being as high as it is, I doubt you understand economics. Given, some of that is coming from China. The Chinese military industrial complex have been receiving a lot of attention in the last decade. The type-055 looks promising, but they're just toys that will change nothing. Why? Because...

So the Nguyen kings ruined it for everyone? So the puppet king had no choice but to be a puppet. He knows he can't win a war, and so he submit. sounds logical to me. Mod edit - removed off-topic material.

What were his options? It was clear the French enjoyed superiority on many fronts.

I do not think he had much of a choice. Bow to the French or face invasion. In the unlikely chance that Viet Nam become an exceedingly capable nation, should she colonize France as a token of her appreciation?

He weigh about 100 pound, maybe?
