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

the least russia could do would be to hold turkey off our backs and let us deal with the azeris.. but again I'm not sure how much we can depend on them at this point.

They seem more concerned with building pipelines and selling gas to the Turks than actually developing their own country or assisting their allies.

Armenia should have built the very least ammunition factories to supply our forces and put people to work in manufacturing. If 10% of military budget was allocated to purchasing weapons internally, we could have revitalized entire areas of Armenia like vanadzor or gyumri by simply build a military industrial complex. I hope plans are being implemented to get some industry lifted off the ground.

Continue being Russia's number one ally, but like Kazakh and Belarus, only when it benefits us...

According to Meydan Tv they have 64 killed soldiers. The truth is probably between 65-100.

we'll never know the truth..still don't understand why our MOD claimed 2000??

they are likely getting their number from Razm.info
It's amazing how professional and proficient that site is. Last night their list was at 65 (61 dead+4 missing). It's now at 73 (67 killed+6 missing). It's gonna grow a lot more.

I believe what they said was that we've heard from sources on the other side that they have 2000 dead and injured
But the number they have consistently given is 300 dead which right now is looking possible seeing how that list is growing

Actually it's the opposit. Razm.info is getting the number from Meydan Tv.

*I agree about the professionalism of Razm.info. Almost half of the followers of their Facebook page are Azeris. That's actually telling something.

In the thread with the "captured" hill they say in the comments it's "in the direction of Gadruma" not Talish or Jebrail (he says "Это в сторону Гадрума"). I can't find a Gadruma village or region. What is this? I'm thinking he meant Hadrut possibly.

Seems like we should rain artillery fire on that dumb flag of theirs? That hilltop can quite literally be leveled with a few heavy mortars. They also have an excavator sitting there that would also be an easy target.

That was pure BS. It definitely damaged the prestige of the NKR MoD.
