After about 3-4 of such interception, even the APS sensors and radars would have been destroyed along with other important components outside the tank.

Just for sake of discussion

I have some doubts regarding the above portion in that some probability of damage might exist post 4-5 interception but not high enough in probability to render APS inoperable majority of times, competent end users/designers will (should) frame op requirements pre and post system development factoring probable kinematic damage from dispersion etc post interception & include mitigation measures either during interception or post interception or both

There are lot of studies done including real ones and stimulations when it comes to kinematics of projectiles etc if it involves any system

APS is a very expensive system , nobody is rich or foolish enough to induct a system which supposedly will lasts 4-5 interception , ironically that too after successful interceptions

Just my POV , you could be right too

Anyways DRDO also started working on it's APS system

Sensors reportedly both radar and IIR based

Let's see how it comes out

Governments should buy all produce and distribute. That way, you don't mix out on revenues.

Turkish propaganda in Kazakhstan

Lurker4Long:


Yep. Exactly what's supposed to happen to a prototype when stress-tested for 4years/25 000km.
There's a reason the Turkish claims have only appeared in a dodgy site and a few Turkish fangirl blogs:
respectable defence publications know this game.

KPE begins production of Barys 6×6 IFVs for Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan Paramount Engineering (KPE) has started production of the Barys 6×6 Infantry Fighting Vehicle (IFV) for the Kazakh military, which will receive its first vehicles by the end of the year.

The company, a joint venture between Paramount Group and Kazpetromash, said the Barys 6×6 (Mbombe 6) is being manufactured entirely from within Kazakhstan.

ARMA-8 towing the Mbombe after it got stuck going through the same obstacle the ARMA itself went through. This is about as embarrassing as it gets. Just take the hit bro. We have recipts.

Lol. In some cases some APS didn't even last more than 2 interception.

We use nominal to compute true national wealth. PPP, power purchasing parity is more useful for national comparisons.

RECRUITMENT MALPRACTICES
A Kenya Defence Forces soldier was on Monday 29th November 2021 convicted to five and a half years imprisonment by a Court Martial sitting at Lang’ata Barracks after he was found guilty of engaging in recruitment malpractices.
The members of the court led by Colonel Lucas Teimuge and Milimani Senior Principal Magistrate Bernard Ochoi found Corporal Fred Kiptum Kiplagat guilty of obtaining money by false pretense, desertion from duty and issuing a fake KDF recruitment calling letter.
Corporal Kiptum was convicted to two years in jail for obtaining Sh300,000 (About $2,600) from Charles Kipkorir on 4th April 2021 pretending that he was in a position to help recruit his son Brian Kipkemoi into the military. He was also convicted to two years in prison for obtaining Sh102,500 from Brian Kipkemoi on the same day pretending that he was in a position to influence his recruitment into the military.
Further, Corporal Kiptum was sentenced to a year in jail for issuing a fake calling letter to the complainant, an act he ought to have known constitutes a criminal offense and additional six-months in prison for deserting his place of work for 90 days without official leave until his arrest on 3rd May 2021.
The Magistrate directed that all the charges run concurrently and granted the accused 14 days to lodge an appeal if dissatisfied with the decision of the court.

This is commendable.
The day Nigeria Army start discovering similar structures in NE is the day ISWAP ends.
