Turbocharged
The one pictured is still the 2A4 which is similar to SAF but with a different add on kit.

 

You can see from the turret it as addition automated turret for it's machine gun and it's equipped with APS Active protection system at both fronts of the turret. It detect incoming projectile and fires a countermeasure projectile to intercept it. Sort of like relative armor but activated at longer range from the tank.

 

Heard the Indonesian army is evaluating this kit sometime back...

Nato calls for calm after boats seized in Russia-Ukraine clashes

 

Nato has joined a chorus of western calls for Russia and Ukraine to show restraint as the UN security council prepares to meet amid a dangerous new crisis between the countries and fears of a wider military escalation.

Russia reopened the Kerch strait separating Crimea from the Russian mainland early on Monday morning after its FSB security service said border patrol boats had fired on and seized three Ukrainian naval ships a day earlier, wounding several crew members.

Kiev said the two small Ukrainian armoured artillery vessels and a tug boat, heading to Ukrainian ports in the Sea of Azov, were observing international maritime rules. Moscow said it had not been notified in advance of the flotilla’s passage and the boats ignored warnings to stop.

No need, cos u sure siam one side

[grin]

Of course sure siam. Why throw my life away for someone else's war?

 

But the survey is not just for me - wanna see how the general population will answer. This will also give me an indication of how long I have to run away by counting the number of cannon fodder in between me and the enemy.

Why can't siam war? Many ways to do so.

 

Got money got foresight can leave even before the conflict starts for real

Got money (sgd will be worthless) or gold can pay passage on the last boat out

Then those left behind also can siam easily by learning bahasa. I'm sure we all know 1 or 2 very successful translators
