That is a heartbreaking story, and i'm sorry to hear it. My father worked as a machinist in Serbia back in the glory days of Yugo. I keep hoping it will turn around some day well hope springs eternal, I can't be too hard on people for dreaming of something better. I have worked on start ups...

LOL, now I know you're a real Serb : ) It could very well be that's all it is, but indications are there's some former Engineers from the M84 project, so maybe this thing will gain some traction. You never know, weirder things have happened ; ) Since Armata will never be exported, it...

team of Serbian engineers from Cacak hope to lure investment from Serbian Defence Industry in new tank design Google Translate

more details emerge, 2 Airbus AS532 Cougars + 2 Mi17's. No word yet on model of new transport aircraft, but most likely CN235 or C295. Serbia appears to be courting Airbus and France as opposed to waiting any longer for Russian loans. The country also hopes that to engage the European...

Serbia to buy 4 more Helicopters, and maybe a transport, but no money for new fighter jets . Likely used Mi8's ? Gasic: Serbia to Buy Military Helicopters From Russia, Germany | InSerbia News Proka any news on what Serbia is getting from Airbus, 400M?

Lazar to start production in 2016, Serbia may be partnering with Bosnia to produce 12.7mm ammunition. Vucic: Lazar 2 chance for Serbia’s exports | InSerbia News

I just saw Romania has purchased a squadron of ex Portuguese F16's. Will Serbia be training against these under a "threat simulation" scenario?

Looks like the Bulgarian and Serbian air forces also have very close cooperation, and both countries have been offered the JF-17 by Pak. Proka have you heard anything regarding the possibility of Serbia picking up some JF-17's? Seems like the perfect airplane for Serbia, basically a modern...

As has been posted already, IMO these are for Western Front/Afghan Army, and/or will be converted to this Look on the bright side, this sale is critical for the Serbian Armed forces. Thank you !

That's an impressive vehicle, only thing it's missing is a flame thrower : ) Will they be replacing the BVP-M80's ?

Are those NORA's for the Serbian army? 13.6million for the land, buildings, and machine tools is a bargain. How were they able to do all that for only 13.6M?

I have to say it's really strange to see a country operate modern Russian and US fighters at the same time. I've seen cases where older soviet stuff is being phased out, and US made planes brought in, but never both purchased and operated together. This has to be very expensive, you can't...

according to this veteran, who served in a British tank for 30 years, the T-72 is obsolete

not sure if this is legitimate , but it appears to be Kontact ERA defensive armor protecting the sponsons and track return mechanism : O Wow, starting at 2:36, looks to me like video of the real thing!

Yes, BUT, this also poses some questions as well. Traditionally the Tank had a 5 man crew, the driver, gunner, loader, radio-operator/machine gunner, and commander. Quickly after WW2 technology got rid of the radio operator, then in the T-72 series the Russians were the first AFAIK to get rid of...

Based on what I've read, one of the biggest weaknesses of the T72 family is their propensity for ammunition explosion after armor penetration. This is almost never thru the front glacis plate but that still leaves a 270 degree window of vulnerability. This was seen in IRaq...

well yes that's entirely possible, and maybe even highly likely, but I hope that's not what happens. half of the general public here is as stupid as a box of dirt, it's what happens when you listen ot Fox news, your brain actually shrinks. However there is growing group of people who are sick...

the pictures are funny, but they don't say anything or make any kind of a point. Let's here your "Think tank" prediction of the future of the middle east. How do you think the situation will change for better or worse. I can tell you that the general public here in the US is tired of...

well I think it's important to be honest about what this stuff is. This is not front line equipment coming straight from Serbian army active forces. Wiki shows Serbia has or had, 550 T55's- 260 in reserve. So the sale is for the reserve equipment that was probably last used in the Yugoslav wars...
