they were using Igla .. all of them???

Why they didn't let other use as what exactly they are using ?? like Pakistan we are using Anza and Stingers mainly

It should be like Tank biathlon (that bring army own equipment in which they are used too)

As far as I'm aware only the Chinese used their own equipment. Everyone else was at a disadvantage because they had to quickly learn and adapt to numerous Russian weapons systems that aren't in use in their home nations.

The tank biathlon IIRC consisted mostly of T-72 variants, again, I think only the Chinese used their own tank.

yes only chinese weapons were different

I think they should have perform better .. Since Paksitani contingents are used to chinese Tech which is directly derived from russia .. .So they should have adopt the weapon system quickly

Considering it may take a few months or longer to actually train personnel to effectively use some of these systems and the boys sent over there were expected to learn how to use them in a matter of days their performance shouldn't be a concern.

You're over thinking this. Their performance shouldn't really be a massive consideration, it's a friendly competition with very small teams. It doesn't really reflect on the overall performance of a nation because an Egyptian Air Defence Special Forces operator for example (deployed by air with MANPADs) will go nowhere near a Tor M2 platform or even a Shilka and visa versa, but personnel were expected to do that in this competition.

The Russians set rather silly parameters in a rather silly competition. A team for every system and stage would have made sense.
