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.

    If Russia pays 10mil for SU-30s, that means we will pay 10mil as well.

      There were many reports in Armenian media about using the credit for buying Pantsir.

          Politics is not about the pursuit of morality nor what's right or wrong
          Its about self interest at personal and national level often at odds with the above.
          Great politicians pursue the National interest and small politicians personal interests

            It doesn't justify taking a loan for the sake of Pantsirs, BTRs and Gaz Tigr. I beleive we are not in urgent need of medium range SAMs. But it would justify taking a loan for Iskanders.
            Besides, that's the only outlet saying so.

We are on the higher grounds, we have the waters, that will at least create a larger natural buffer zone around our country if water is not available conveniently to the nomads.

Add to that a few billion dollars dollars in damages, a few hundred/thousand dead, a few hundred thousand in emigration, and forever scaring away any foreign investment, and you can very well have the end of our nation.

                Only way realistically that Armenia can take Nakhichevan is if war starts, and those idiots attempt to fire at Yerevan from Nakhichevan which is only 80km away. Short of that, it will be very hard to do anything. Remember that there's 200,000 people living there. That land is not connected to Azerbaijan, what would happen once Armenia starts taking it, and those people are stuck there?

                It would be like begging the Turks to get involved.

                And once again, let's just say it goes perfectly and we take it. What then? you still have all of the problems i mentioned.

                War should be avoided as much as possible. The only scenario in which I can justify war is if the central government in Azerbaijan falls, and theres mass chaos, and we can advance east, and even into Nakhichevan with absolute minimum losses, to get the perfect ground, and create a better buffer, while being sure Turkey will not get involved. Short of that, war should not be an option.
                That is sound judgement. We'd all like Nakhichevan back but we cannot instigate this.

                  Water will one day (actually, this process is already coming to realization) prove priceless- this will be Armenia's strength. We'll see more bellyaching on this by the Azeris in the future. Furthermore, a decades old sticking point between Turkey and its Arab neighbors was Turkeys control of water into the rest of the Levant/M.E.

                    YEREVAN. – The official opening of the National Defense Research University (NDRU) of the Ministry of Defense of Armenia was held in capital city Yerevan on Thursday, January 28, 2016, on the 24th anniversary of the Armenian Armed Forces.

                    The event brought together President Serzh Sargsyan, Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Defense Ministers Seyran Ohanyan and Levon Mnatsakanyan, representatives of the command staff of Armenia’s armed forces, foreign mission chiefs in the country, and numerous guests.

                    Kotanjian told reporters that young promising specialists, who were trained abroad, are engaged in the activities of this institution of higher education.

                      probably contract is canceled since officially we chose UralVagonZavod to modernize our stuff. But maybe will be surprise in NKR parade.

                      SU30

                      We will probably get them for same price as Kazakhstan since both are CSTO states (50mln for each jet) BTW Russia getting one Su30 from factory for only 10mln.

                      KuB

                      we know that 2 battalion of KuB M3 was given from 102 base to Armenian side, and we will see them in Stepanakert parade.
                      Well as for the pt-72u,i think if armenia will modernize its tanks in russia,so will karabagh(really hoped to see the pt-72u in armenia though :/).regarding the su-30,we shall not forget that kazakhstan is a very rich and wealthy country,i don't think russia will sell the su-30's to armenia at the same price (btw they do not cost 50 million),the kubs will definitely be seen in stepanakert's parade
