DEFENSE STUDIES: Vietnam Expressed Interest in Korean-made K9A1 Self-propelled Howitzer (defense-studies.blogspot.com)

Pour la petite histoire, le Vietnam est le dernier utilisateur connu du Mil Mi-24A. Ils sont dépourvus d'armement (même la mitrailleuse de nez a été démontée), et ils servent probablement d'hélicoptères de transport.

DECON vehicle built on TATRA FORCE 4x4 undercarriage allows the crew of 3 to efficiently decontaminate almost all size military and civilian
vehicles, equipment and ordnance, people,  and static objects, using a number of tools.

DECON was developed for the armed forces of a specific foreign user, but it can be used in the civilian sector just as well. (Excalibur Army)

Le fusil STV (que l'on voit sur la photo) est une fabrication sous licence du Galil israélien produit par l'usine Z111. La version vietnamienne comporte quand même quelques modifications pour l'adapter au climat vietnamien.

Compared to the good-old Kalashnikov, STV-215 is more compact and portable so it fits well inside the confinement of BMP-1 IFV. pic.twitter.com/OQyGo63TYq
