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
Any surprises at the Azeri military parade?
- The S-300s sale by Russia to Azerbaijan was confirmed to be true. It had a Favorite marking on it so it's probably this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-300_%...F2_.28SA-20.29
- The Turkish Otokar Cobra which failed during 2008 Russian-Georgian war.
- Israeli Lynx MLRS.
- BTR models.
- Smerch.
- Tochka.
- Marauder and Matador (posted above)
What else?
EDIT: Forgot, are those UAVs locally produced ones or Israeli-bought ones or both?Last edited by Federate; 06-26-2011, 10:24 AM.Azerbaboon: 9.000 Google hits and counting!

The UAVs are the same Yahoodi ones displayed on previous occasions.
They announced that the S-300 PMU-2 was going to be there. It normally takes more than a year to produce such a system, Russia must have given them the 2 systems that were ordered by Iran and never delivered.
Smerch, Lynx, Tochka etc were all seen in the previous parade.
The MRAP (Mine resistant) vehicles were acquired over the last couple of years.
No new aircraft in the air either (just some South African modifications on some of their Mi-24 helicopters).
I will prepare a comprehensive report after I see a complete video of the parade and a extensive photo shoot.

Re: Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan
The press wrote about the signed contract to purchase 24 Mi-35M helicopters from Russia to Azerbaijan in autumn 2010. However, there is no video of the Mi-35M helicopters. At the parade they were not there.

Serge Sarkisian is the best President of Armenia since independence.
I agree. Ignore anyone who claims otherwise because they are either ignorant or have an axe to grind.Last edited by Armanen; 06-26-2011, 09:23 PM.For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.

Azerbaijan Shows Off New Weapons at Military Parade
June 26, 2011 - 7:53pm, by Joshua Kucera
Azerbaijan celebrated its Armed Forces Day on Sunday with a big military parade in Baku and the first display of the country's new, Russian-supplied S-300 air defense system, the existence of which had been the source of some skepticism.
The parade featured 6,000 soldiers and a variety of hardware (you can see a video below). Azerbaijan's president, Ilham Aliyev, also gave a speech in which he boasted about Azerbaijan's military prowess and vowed to retake the disputed province of Nagorno Karabakh, now controlled by Armenians.
“The war is not over yet,” Aliyev said at the showpiece parade in the center of Baku, vowing to end what he called the “occupation” of Karabakh.
“The territorial integrity of Azerbaijan must be restored and the territory will be restored,” he said...
“Azerbaijan has fulfilled the task that I set, which was that Azerbaijan’s military expenditure must exceed the entire state budget of Armenia,” he said, noting that defense spending reached $3.3 billion (2.3 billion euros) this year.
“Military expenditure occupies first place in the state budget of Azerbaijan and that is understandable. It will be like this as long as our lands are not liberated,” he said.
