T-90 tanks soon come to Vietnam - a big order under discussion

the Daily "Iswestija" reports, Vietnam intends to acquire 100 T-90 tanks. According to Wladimir Rostschupkin, the executive director of Uralwagonsawod, the company that produces the tanks, Vietnam and Russia are currently negotiating on price and quantity. He adds, Vietnam wants special configuration for the tanks.

Vietnam urgently needs new modern battle tanks. At the moment, the Vietnamese armed forces possess hundreds of Soviet and Chinese made battle tanks. some of tanks have been undergone modernization and upgraded by Israeli specialists. The country previously negotiated with Poland for delivery of T-72 tanks, but the negotiation failed by some reasons.

Ruslan Puchow, the director of Centrum for Strategic and Technology analysis, urges the russian company to make concession: "the market is highly competitive. Vietnam recently preferred Israeli assault rifles over Kalaschnikow from Russia. Also, France offers weaponry. it is better not to lose Vietnam to our competitors."

T-90s belong to standard main battle tanks of Russian armed forces. many countries operate T-90 such as Algeria, Aserbaidschan and India. Syria also fields T-90 tanks against terror groups.

The end of an era. With last delivery of two Su-30 to Vietnam ends the production of the jet fighter. Though it isn't time to go home yet. The jet manufacturer KnAAZ will continue with Su-35.

besides Da Nang, the government approved a plan to construct $2.5 billion Hon Khoai deepwater port (Ca Mau), with construction due to start in the last quarter of 2016. I wonder where the funds should come from, unless we have discovered a gold mine :D

if the port becomes reality, together with the proposed Kra canal, result in shortening the sea route between Indian Ocean and South China Sea, thing will become very interesting. strategically speaking. a feasibility study was undertaken in 2015 by Bechtel Corp., the largest construction and civil engineering company in America. it is also reported that 85% of Hon Khoai Port will be financed by the US Export-Import Bank (Ex-Im Bank), a US government backed export credit agency. Chinese media reported in May 2015 that China and Thailand had signed a memorandum of understanding to build the Kra Canal for $28 billion.

bye bye Singapore

I've heard the same thing. Thailand denied that there was any agreement.

He he he true it is just rumour and speculation yet. Too bad. We may wait for the Siamese to do it a bit longer. The plan to build the kra goes back to 17 century.

We talked about China delivery of 105mm artillery in another thread. Interesting to know that in the decisive battle of Dien bien phu, the Viet Minh used all sorts of weapons of all countries if available.

Yes keeping such ancient weaponry intact, but for military museums :-)

Just troll the Chinese and use it for combat. Tow the antique 105mm behind a scooter wearing clown shoes. Or, if a t-55 is no longer mobile, put that sucker on a truck and drive it into battle with a giant flag that says," YUmadbrolol."
