Ho...WRT your point 3. More camera than gun barrels.<br />Hopefully this mean we getting something similar to <br />Elbit Iron Vision helmets and keep our Vehicle Commander <br />under hatch.krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05857814849112037231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2348464617577736454.post-60115446234077766292017-05-25T10:17:08.791+08:002017-05-25T10:17:08.791+08:00@Benjamin Ong,

Do we still need three divisions etc etc, If the air force is a 100% PGM force and the Artillery a 100% PGM capable force , with more precise firepower could we do with less divisions. <br /><br />The theory now is one of smaller and smaller battlegroups more geographically spread and mobile. Not automation but more with less.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12530308508951725575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2348464617577736454.post-13833876456463819532016-07-17T13:12:22.035+08:002016-07-17T13:12:22.035+08:00Looks like a smaller version of the Ajax (Scout SV...Looks like a smaller version of the Ajax (Scout SV). <br />Side note - it seems like a strong hint that the next transport plane will be closer in width to either the A400M/ C17dtayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14645268625588900439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2348464617577736454.post-60292722363588419262016-07-10T23:34:32.124+08:002016-07-10T23:34:32.124+08:00The AFV's stablemate must be the long rumoured...The AFV's stablemate must be the long rumoured SAF indigenous/local tank with 120mm gun. <br /><br />I am hopeful SAF will showcase it soon.
