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

How can a loud explosion be heard? As far as I know UAVs don't explode cz they are not metals and cant be hit by a missile neither theres feul to release heat. The only way to shoot them is; laser, hacking or machine gun but not missile. Am I wrong?

Exactly!i don't think they can because a large missile would probably skip a small object,but they hit one a while ago I think posing it as an Armenian uav.that sound of explosion part might have been from middle explosion but the fact they think a uav is gonna explode is hilarious,at the end of the day their Azeri morons

Karabakh refutes Azeri claims of Armenian drone destruction

September 16, 2015 - 12:03 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - The Nagorno Karabakh Defense Ministry issued a statement refuting Azerbaijani Defense Ministry’s yet another misinformation.
“Azerbaijan’s claims suggesting that the country’s armed forces have destroyed an Armenian Krunk-25 drone are not true. The neighboring country’s defense department propagandists are once again indulging in wishful thinking,” the Karabakh Defense Ministry statement said.
As President Serzh Sargsyan said at the CSTO Collective Security Council session in Tajikistan, escalation at the Armenian-Azerbaijani border may lead to destabilization of the region. The President also informed the heads of the CSTO member states on the situation in the South Caucasus, focusing on the increasing threat of tensions along the Armenian-Azerbaijani border and the line of contact between Azerbaijan and Nagorno Karabakh.
Azerbaijani armed forces continuously violated the ceasefire at the line of contact with Nagorno Karabakh on September 6-12.
According to the NKR defense army, 1200 ceasefire violations by Azerbaijani armed forces were registered, with around 19.000 shots fired from various caliber weapons, including 60- and 82-mm mortars, RPG-7, HAN-17 grenade launchers, as well as Turkish TP-107 rocket launcher.

Armenia Seeks Greater ‘Peacekeeping’ Role For Ex-Soviet Bloc

Armenian called on the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) to play a greater “peacekeeping” role as it took over the rotating presidency of the Russian-led military alliance of six former Soviet republics on Tuesday.

President Serzh Sarkisian offered to open a special training center for that purpose at the premises of an Armenian army brigade that contributes troops to the ongoing NATO-led missions in Afghanistan and Kosovo.

“It is time to create a basis organization on training CSTO peacekeepers,” Sarkisian said at a CSTO summit held in Tajikistan’s capital Dushanbe. “We propose that the training center of the peacekeeping brigade of the Armenian Armed Forces be considered as the foundation of that basis organization.”

“We are ready to share our experience accumulated during a more than 10-year-long participation in various operations,” he told Russian President Vladimir Putin and the other CSTO leaders.

The volunteer unit cited by Sarkisian has received considerable assistance from the United States and other NATO counties ever since it was set up in 2003. As recently as last month, U.S. military instructors trained the first group of teaching personnel for the Armenian army’s new paramedic school that will primarily cater for the peacekeeping brigade.

Addressing reporters in Dushanbe immediately after the summit, Sarkisian said that “expansion of the CSTO’s peacekeeping potential” will be a major priority of the Armenian presidency of the Russian-led defense pact. But he did not elaborate on reasons for a greater CSTO peacekeeping role or specify possible areas of joint deployment by Russia and its ex-Soviet allies.

Some analysts are bound to suggest that Sarkisian had the unresolved Nagorno-Karabakh conflict in mind. Ceasefire violations in the conflict zone have intensified in the last several years, affecting not only Karabakh itself but also internationally recognized parts of Armenia. The CSTO is increasingly criticized in Armenian opposition and media circles for rarely reacting to such incidents, let alone voicing support for Armenia.

Sarkisian said in his summit speech that he briefed fellow CSTO heads of state on the “substantial increase in tensions” along “the line of contact” around Karabakh and the Armenian-Azerbaijani border. He blamed Azerbaijan for the periodical upsurges of fighting there, saying that they are “fraught with a destabilization of the situation in the entire region in the absence of a corresponding reaction from the international community.”

Sarkisian said that he also raised the matter with the presidents of Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan at a closed session that preceded their public speeches at the gathering.

The Armenian leader has previously accused some of his country’s ex-Soviet allies of effectively siding with Azerbaijan in the dispute. Two of them, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, signed up in 2013 to a declaration of Turkic states that called for a Karabakh settlement “within Azerbaijan’s internationally recognized borders.” Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan well as Tajikistan had previously backed even more pro-Azerbaijani statements adopted by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).

The CSTO reserved itself the right to launch peacekeeping missions within or even outside the alliance’s borders with a treaty that was signed by its member states in 2007. It has conducted no such operations yet.
