SANDF seems to be rocking FAB defence furniture on their R-5's. Almost unrecognisable.

Does the VT4 have an RWS ( remote weapon station)? I don't see it. lts on the Chinese and Thai variant. The RWS is for anti- infantry which we need.

It does. Comes as a standard feature. It would of course need to be detached for shipping to avoid damage.

Turkish drone tech and EW capabilities are scary AF! For anyone doubting Turkish military strength, Over the past 72hrs, Ankara has obliterated the SyAA in idlib with hundrends of targets hit and almost a hundred SPA, Tanks, MRLS, helicopters and APC's destroyed. To think it's actual operation against the Assad Regime hasn't even commenced yet!!!

Massive setbacks for ISWAP, leadership rift and a marked increase in agressive action by NAF, targeting numerous key leaders in the last weeks. Dynamics are shifting substantially.

Dude,they've lost at least 20 Leo 2A4s to the Kurds since 2016!

Here's a vid with explanation of the same pic.

A female YPG blows up a Leo 2 with maybe a Konkurs-immediate penetration and complete destruction!

Patton M-60s have fared even worse!

So,after all sorts of problems with bare arsed jihadists they should confront an experienced combined army,the Russians? Here's the 2.5 MT KA 52 loadout of 30 mm,80 mm rockets,Vikhr AT ,of which they have 4,not to mention 6 Mi 28s.

Erdogan is a special type of genius but I doubt he'd be dumb enough to deliberately provoke the Russian bear in Syria-I doubt his army would let him!

I disagree. Turkey has an extremely formidable force currently on station in Idlib. The only thing that's currently keeping the Turks at bay is Russia's air superiority in N Syria. The only things the Turks currently lack are air defences which they seem poised to address. Air security for the Turks in Idlib would dramatically tip the balance in their favour as we saw in Nayran a few days ago
