Malaysian Tanks

there is nothing to feel dread about this. If you are standing at the other side lookin at SG, from a strategic perspective this deployment is necessary reaction.Originally posted by CM06:Chino's right.
Now, if the TS posted those pictures...did he take those IN JOHOR?
If they are...i feel a sense of dread.....
U probably have to do more standby.

On the side i m sure there is no problems. on the frontal section armour looks thick.Originally posted by Shotgun:Matador ah... If can hit it, it will toast it. =)
The effects of it will be even more "happening" due to its light armor. I don't think any of the crew will get out alive. -
yes the original metal was actually WWI and German melt the metal and recast to Panzer and it was left over in the Pole after WWII and they convert it to what is it today.Originally posted by ninefold9:Could these be 2nd World War tanks which Poland was trying hard to dispose off with huge discount offers.
At one time M'sia was expressing interest in acquiring them but citing lack of fund. They even talked about paying through installments and supplementing the deal with vast supplies of M'sia's palm oil.
If indeed these are World World II tanks, there is a possibility that they were built with Russian technology. The weaponry technology is out-dated for use today. Furthermore, they were meant for cold climatic European countries - O Kay for cold countries like Poland but not hot tropical countries in S.E. Asia.
Bringing them over to M'sia, the military engineers may need to come out with a solution to install cool air-conditioning system, or else soldiers inside the tanks will be barbequed to death. Mitsui air-cond system from Protons can be considered.
In cutting down costs, some wise nuts might consider reconfiguring the system in such a way that cheap palm oil can be used in place of the more expensive high grade petrol to power the tanks. After all M'sia is known as one of the world's biggest exporters of palm oil.
Hopefully these tanks will not leak in water, like those in which ex-president Habibe purchased out-dated World War II tanks from Germany. On its maiden journey to Indonesia some of these tanks leaked in water and reportedly sunk into oceans.
Be sure that these tanks won't end up as museum pieces
Sorry i can't help it. Its too funny.

this thing is to fullfill the combine arm division that they were transformed in to right now. Its for the mechanized and motorized brigade.The development of 3rd Division into a full fledge Combined Arms Division is still in progress. When completed, this division will comprise of an armored brigade (1st Brigade), a mechanized infantry brigade (4th Brigade) and a motorized infantry brigade (7th Brigade). The final composition of 1st Armored Brigade are 2 tank regiments and a mechanized battalion. A tank regiment, 11th KAD, has been designated and waiting to be equipped with PT-91M Main Battle Tank from Poland due to arrive in 2007 would form the basis of the Armored Brigade.

Not very lar. Nothing the matador or even the RPG can't get thru.Originally posted by Arapahoe:On the side i m sure there is no problems. on the frontal section armour looks thick.
Just less after armor effects due to the engine lor. -
why are there so many retarded ppl in this thread?
WW2 Polish tank my arse. I use my M16A2 shoot can or not? -
AIFV is just only upgraded version of M113, if all the spaced armour is removed, you will see a M113 hull.
It look bulky becos of the spaced armour which is actually a armour plate with some distance away from the hull, creating a standoff distance from the hull, the same concept as the slat armour or the the bird cage of the Stryker in Iraq.
This will reduce the effect of the penetrator especially HEAT rds. -
I smell trouble for sg soldiers...............

It's a Light Armour Division to me.

Ah yess.. .the only time when you draw live ammo its "Take first, worry about paperwork later."Originally posted by FireAndHell:rest assured........i do believe there's considerable planning and preparation in place for any eventualities during our ND.... -
has this happened before?Originally posted by Shotgun:Ah yess.. .the only time when you draw live ammo its "Take first, worry about paperwork later." -

I can take any word you hurl at me; won't lose any sleep over it.Originally posted by tankfanatic:i almost call this guy bodoh.... but i wont.. it is funny.
The news concerning M'sia negotiating with Poland over the acquisition of World World II tanks, took place towards the end of Mahattir's tenure as PM.
The news about the acquistion of tanks was featured on tv news reel (tv 1) as well in the English language newspapers. I am not kidding.
The out-dated Germans tanks which Habibe purchased and reportedly sunk was a big issue in Indonesia and reported all over S.E Asia. Not kidding about it.

Do you think the Apache attack helicopters are capable of wiping them out?Originally posted by Arapahoe:there is nothing to feel dread about this. If you are standing at the other side lookin at SG, from a strategic perspective this deployment is necessary reaction.
U probably have to do more standby.

do i need to even reply to this noobs?

lol its all over the net. but thanksThat's not a combined arms division.
i meant in the process becoming a full fledge CAD the AC 300 were one of the requirements. They also in the process of implementing BMS... right now their tankee are waiting for the PT91 so that all will fill up. But even the PT91M main purpose is to create a nukleaus of officers and tankee so that in the future these man could train and redesign the MAF armoured doctrine. So i guess rigt now no one should be worry much about the MAF CAD.

Habibie is an indonesian.......not malaysian...what german tank? .......AND WHAT TANK SUNK!!!!!!
-
Btw, I always thought AFV was an umbrella term that includes tanks and IFVs? Is this not the case?
-
If u got articles on Malaysia intending to buy old WW2 German tanks. pls post up. It will really be an eye opener for me.
-
Hmm, IFV with 25mm Bushmaster ...
ours is with a 30mm bushmaster, right?? -
Apparently you have not read my earlier post carefully but chose to jump in blindly and answered hastily.Originally posted by tankfanatic:Habibie is an indonesian.......not malaysian...what german tank? .......AND WHAT TANK SUNK!!!!!!
In my earlier post which I am reproducing it here in Red, I did not state that Habibe is a M'sian. Open your eyes big and read it one more time: Hopefully these tanks will not leak in water, like those in which ex-president Habibe purchased out-dated World War II tanks from Germany.
In my earlier posting, I mentioned 2 issues. The lst one concerned M'sia's intention to acquire tanks from Poland. The other was about Habibe who most of us know him to be an Indonesian, procuring German tanks from Germany.
For the millions who live in S.E. Asian countries and who have been reading newspapers often and seeing Habibe's face on tv during Suharto's time, we alll know him to be an Indonesian. There can be no mistake about Habibe's nationality. You youself appear to be 'very blur'
Many of us who are living outside Indonesia are also aware that Habibe was adopted by President Suharto's family, when he was a young boy. In his adult life, Habibe spent some time in Germany and was trained there as an Engineer.
For the time he spent in Germany, Habibe thought he had a good deal when he settled on a fleet of dyfunctional German tanks from Germany. unfortunately some of them were found to have leaked in water. -
So care to enlighten us, which German tanks did he obtain for Indonesia? He certainly did get 2nd hand landing ships and navy vessels.
