Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan
On further reading it wasn't the missiles that were sent, it was the control and checking systems for the missile. Check post #6348 http://forum.hyeclub.com/showthread....l=1#post323977
Still, why would we but this stuff if there was no need for it?
I never checked if they operated T-64's or T-80's, I just remember something the article about the Kobra missile. I don't know how they have parts of the system but it seems like they did, until we bought it from them.
Thats dirt cheap, holy crap. And we also have to remember some guys might only wear one, for the knee that they tend to rest on...More for reserve That is insanely cheap. You can buy them in bulk and then forget about it
It seems as if the soldiers are wearing one of three helmest. Ssh-60, 6B26/6b7, or the Ssh-68, I would personally like to see the Soviet helmets abolished, and we are seeing that. More and more troops are wearing Russian and NATO (PASGT) helmets. Based off the parades, I know Armenia has bought Russian helmets in bulk...but we are yet to see them in full use on the line of contact. Hey, perhaps it might save a soldiers life in the next incursion attempt?
Yup, of all the places for the best gear to go it's the line of contact not Huraparak or some storage locker for special forces. They're going against the best Azeri's have they should have some priority.

John Kerry to meet with Armenian, Azerbaijani Presidents
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will meet with Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev in Wales, United Kingdom, today, at 8:30 pm Yerevan time, the U.S. Department of State’s website reports.
Wales is hosting the largest gathering of international leaders ever to take place in Britain at the NATO summit on 4 to 5 September 2014.
Looks like Kerry the Snake is going to be doing some talking....Notice how Aliyev sits patiently, waiting for Kerry to notice him. Serzh, on the other hand, walks up to him, and shakes his hand, forcing Kerry to acknowledge him. Then, at the last minute, Aliyev walks up embarrassingly, to shake Kerry's hand and remind him that he was ignored LOL. This just shows he is a spineless dictator, who oppresses his people, but acts like a school girl when the big boys from the banks are in the room.
UPDATE:
Sarkisian Challenges NATO on Karabakh
NEWPORT, Wales—President Serzh Sarkisian challenged NATO on Thursday during remarks at the summit of world leaders saying either peace will prevail in Karabakh or the continued threats of war will mar security in the region, as Turkey vowed to protect Azerbaijan’s interests at the Summit.
Saying that the Armenian people have felt threats to security on their skins and know the value of regional stability, Sarkisian that there were two options as NATO is scheduled to adopt of document Friday “that will be related to the security of my people and peace in our region.”
“There are two options. Either it [the NATO Summit] will adopt the language of the OSCE Minsk Group, which is the only specialized international structure dealing with the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict–language that was proposed and supported by the Co-Chair countries that are represented here by France and the United States of America–or upon the lobbying of another member state it will pass again with an aim to save the face of our tyrant neighbor vis-a-vis his own people. Believe me that option will not lead to any positive results,” said Sarkisian. “Either common sense and the desire for peace will have the upper hand, or the silent encouragement of xenophobia will deepen the war rhetoric and deadly provocations so easily brandished by Azerbaijan, which does not care about its soldiers’ lives and becomes encouraged with such statements, will continue,” added Sarkisian.
