Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan

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

And how exactly do you plan to invade without having an airforce?

It is well known fact that air superiority wins wars....since Armenia is limited offensively in that capacity it must do it the hard way (defensively). As territory is taken, air defense systems must be moved in.

Our Coat of Arms has a lion and an eagle.....may the day come soon that our Eagle claims back his airspace (Armenian Highlands).

I'm all for liberating more land, but this is not how you do it. This is fantasy.

Iran would love to see a longer more viable border with Armenia and removal of danger from an attack by US/Israel from Azeri territory as a bonus....as long as fighting doesn't spell into its land.
Turkey will support Azerbaijan with weapons and logistics but no real troops at the end of the day, maybe special forces under the table.

This is a win win deal for Russia. Not only the Georgian problem will be solved but also the attempts of the West to get a foothold in the region will be crushed.

BTW, Russian Iranian relations is very important to Armenia......a political card.

A win win deal for russia would be a tighter relation with over 72 million populated country. The more than 72 million populated country has more potential for Russian interests than a 3 million populated country with a very weak economical potential.
The tighter Turko-Ruskie relation gets, more Russia will let Turko to do what the poop ever they want. Consider Turkey and Azerbaijan cornering Armenians. Imagine Yerevan being a country alone; not a city.

Russians are not in love with Armenia. It's all about bling bling, when will you learn that?

Russia is interested into something more than economics alone, because economics will not guarantee the security of Northern Caucasus. Right now Armenia is their last ally in the region, it's the place where they have their last base. If Russia loses Armenia it loses the Caucasus. Turkey and the West move in and take over. Do you think Russia would like to lose its sphere of influence to the West and Turkey? Because you can bet Azerbaijan will choose Turkey over Russia any day.

Right now in the Caucasus a chess game is being played between the great powers and Russia needs its base in Armenia to keep its influence and power in the region.
The world doesn't revolve around money alone like you seem to think.

But Russia isn't emotionally tied with Armenia. It's all about mentoring the nato, having a sandbag to defend motherland, some resources which would fill only a tooth, and a potential market for the abandoned weaponry. We are all aware of this, aren't we? Short and sweet it's all about the national interest. This can turn up side down anytime. Azeri dictatorship can invest in Putin corporation, hand out the entire sources and feed Medvedev, Turks can buy resources and sign a military cooperative deals with Russians and viola!
Next day CNN headlines:
-Azeri troops invaded karabakh and moving towards north.
-Turks closed the Armenian border to prevent flow of Armenian refugees.
-Russian troops pulling out of Armenia.
-Azeri rebels shooting down Armenian Air Force hinds down with stingers (+18 Video)
-Turks sign 8 million USD worth arms deal with Azeris

Why would Russia leave Armenia or sign a military treaty with an NATO nation? That doesn't make sense at all. You haven't given a reason why Russia would betray a close ally, and lose their only base in the South Caucasus. They are already selling their resources to Turkey and they don't need to retreat out of Armenia to do that. And What will the US say if their close ally signs a military deal with their rival? Do you think they will allow something like that?
