From Thailand, we see this interesting 8x8 vehicle called the Black Widow Spider. A collaboration between Thailand's Defense Technology Institute and Ricardo of the UK....
Another instance of modern armor thats showing up in the Pacific.
Next we have the Polish Armed Forces testing out the Rheinmetall MBT Revolution for their Leopard 2A4 upgrade program....
I find this all fascinating.
With the exception of the Western powers, every other force on the planet is in the midst of well planned upgrades of their entire force structure.
No imbalance. No total focus on simply getting one airplane into service and the hell with the rest of the force. The future is bleak if my worst fears are confirmed. The Chinese hacked the F-35, and either planted a trojan horse in the programing or detected a fatal flaw and every advantage in network centric warfare along with stealth vanishes in the first day of combat.
Never has the US military placed all its eggs into one basket. The F-35 basket seems extremely fragile.
