I am starting to doubt whether we can really afford the newer generations, but why not. As a tax payer i am more then willing to support the building of the stronger tatmadaw. What will the new toys be? Mig35? Su57 seems impossible tho. Cant wait to see those bad boyz.
Those MA13 really kill the mode. Even if the west block their firearm sales, i think we can choose some reliable russian SMG platforms. We really need to treat our elite troops like the real elite troops. Not saying MA13 is not reliable but it doesnt match well with the nature of the operation...
Some korean pages are reporting about the potential Makassar class LPD deal for Myanmar Navy. Let me copy paste what they mentioned.

We finally have a clear photo of a Makassar-class LPD being built at Daesun Shipbuilding...
These pics surface on facebook and people are describing it is locally manufactured MAAG35 35mm Anti-Aircraft Gun. Apparantly it is also being integrated with Smart Hunter Radars as described in the facebook posts.
Interesting news. DI is keeping our Anti-Aircraft game strong. Can't wait to see...
Now they are taking small arms procurement seriously. First with UDMC now in Isreal. Can't wait to see M4 style rifles replacing our obsolete MA series.
Mass production for all troops will be less likely due to the very high cost nature of the item. Even the SOTF are equipped with kevlar vests with third party chest rigs. I would consider Agilite Tactical plate carriers for SOTF and SEALs. Maybe we can take reference from their technology and...
I see a bit of improvement in our body armors. Efforts are being made to imply the molle webbing on it but the overall design of the armor itself is making it impossible to have the standard molle pattern.
Not sure about the build in kevlar form the inside but on the surface we can clearly see...
All mk3 bullpups in my opinion are basically parade gun. No small arms in our arsenal can compare to battle proven MA series. We still need better one tho.
I own one of those. Can be bought form nearby military surplus store with very minimal price. Popular with bb gun players. Not graded for military use unless they enforce with kevlar or ceramic plate. Still the webbings are not up to universal srandards. Cannot fit the standard SAF ammo pouch to...
I think the problem is with the pride of the top levels who were once part of 80s-90s kayin and shan theatre. They are very confortable with the conventional way of thinking when it comes to infantry equipment and way of operating firearms. The pride is so strong that they always portray how...
This pic is creating interesting discussings among local military enthusiast and also by our lovely neighbours who love to call us monkey. :(
Our officers are getting trained by Indian navy for how to submarine 101?
Combat diver means something similar to naval special force?
Since Indian navy...
Army started equiping MA series to front line troops during early 2000s. We can trace back from the books written by veterans. We were dealing with jungle masters KNU during those eras. The size and weight of G3 were big pain in the *** for our light infantry regiments in the karen jungles. So...
