Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

      Re: Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan

      This is a major show of force, this is not a joke. Having players like Russia, Belarus is a given, but Kazaks on Armenian soil put out a huge single to anyone in the area making a mistake against the alliance. Kazakhstan is not the only Stan in the mix, but they are the most important Stan. This was not just Armenia saying we have an alliance, this is the alliance saying we have an alliance! The UAV’s are the best answer to what Armenia can do on it’s own and guess what it is a very valuable thing to contribute not only to Armenia but the alliance.

      Now I would love to know what it means when the Russian DM says we transferred “We are transferring about 10 facilities to the Armenian side” Could these be the very same facilities transferred to Russia for payment of debt? Now they are being transferred back because they realize that it does them more good if we are in charge of these facilities? What ever these 10 facilities are not something small, you know it is something major! A facility is a tangible asset it is not mobile! Trust me I know I am a facilities guy and I know my trade very well thank you! Armenia was always top notch when it came to doing things! The UAV’s are a fine example of this, now add another 10 facilities to the mix what is next?

      This also states Armenia’s position in this alliance, as it is an important member. There are other things afoot like when American’s leave Afghanistan everyone in the area knows what will wait. In addition to other geopolitical sound reasons that keeps this diverse alliance coordinated and focused. This is one of the best things that has happened to us in a long time. Given this alliance against big players pushing their little weight around Armenia is going to get even more powerful. Give these facilities a few years, then turn to me as say what Armenia can do.

          So it’s been 20 years of stability and being a good reliable partner. No color revelations no rose this and that with fake leaders. So this brings us to another question, where is Georgia?...LOL

          Let me guess the Stalin mofo’s cozying up to toorks all over again. Give me Kazakhstan over these back stabbing untrustable feck ups of human kind. Any day any time! After all what are they doing now eating their ties?...ROTF!!


          What more do you want me to say?


          ROTFLMAO

            The last picture from left to right. The first one I cannot tell, but the silenser looks like Russian or Armenian made, so it must be a 30cal(7.62mm). The second one is an A.I.(Accuracy International) AE or AW series with 338 Lapua Magnum(which I hope this one is) or 50cal. The third one appears to be a Polish WKW Wilk Tor 12.7mm anti-materiel rifle. The fourth looks like a Barrett (with a distinct muzzlebrake) 50 cal. I have seen them in NKR military show pictures and think that both Armenia and NKR have them all plenty. How do you think azeris got silenced so quickly and brutally last summer?
            International markets are flooded with excellennt rifles like theese very cheap ($5-10K). The key is the handler's(sniper's) quality. I hope that our govenment does everything to train topline snipers.
            While traditionally soviet military doctrine did not spend a lot of money and time training soldiers, the west spent all the expences and time making snipers perfect.
            A good sniper can hit targets at as far away as 3000 meters and is woth a few platons(zvods) of regulars. They can stop enemy movement for hours by taking out commanders and putting the enemy in confusion and panic(in azery case multiply that tenfold) without being seen. Or they can easily take out infiltrators, disrupt communications. In one zinuj clip i saw, it was talked that our snipers can hit a target the size of matchbox in 1000meters at night. That is an international topline.

                I have not seen the Truvelo 12.7 or the Brugger & Thomet APR before at Armenian presentations but I have seen a picture of the Truvelo with Russian special forces. The rest have been present at Armenian presentations.

For some reference the rocket on the left of the screen is the S-24 which has a 125kg warhead. Doesn't look very aerodynamic but a 10 km range is significant if(probably is) its deployed in Artsakh. Definitely Armenian made.

                      Re: Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan

                      The question now is ;

                      Is OTAN better than the CSTO ?
                      In :
                      -equipement
                      -arms
                      -military experience
                      -countries participating ( if they are "good at wars" or not)
                      -solidarity ( if one country fight , how will the other react ? Will they fight 100% or only fight because of the obligation ...)

                      If anyone can compare those , it will be very nice !

                      Thanks !!!
