Why buy Eastern or Russian weapons why not buy Singaporeans or South Koreans. Its compatible with what we currently have now ( Western ) it cultivates closer military and economic ties with another Asian country. Maybe not the cheapest but probably of better quality than east bloc weapons. |

Im a supporter of the BMP-3 IFV for the AFP before... After seeing a clip of it firing its main gun, masyado mausok... The clip shows the IFV dug in and used as an artillery piece in Checnia. If we have the russian 100mm replaced with a 90mm, and work out the visibility problem [smokiness when it fires]... Lets issue it to all the divisions, atleast isa brigade of the div has these and they might sare the same ammo with the V-300s. |

with the Democrats, supportive of the Communists and Islamofascists in this country, cutting US military and police aid to the Philippines by 2/3, it is high time for us to consider Russian hardware. we will not get anything from the Americans as long as the Democrats are in power. |

I agree with you, Sir israeli! The closet commie liberals are screwing us up. WE INTEND TO BE USEFUL, NOT "USEFUL IDIOTS"(AMERICAN LIBERALS) (An Exact Personification of a Manchurian Candidate, The Movie) it has been my lifelong ambition and enduring dream printed on hundreds of sheets of paper that equal one ream closet communist spy and socialist liberal that i am patriotic and loyal, from CPUSA* to uncle sam that there comes the day when i become a liberal politician feign those grandiose plans and remain an anti-war tactician through active measures, i will inflict heavy toll on the enemy control the press, slant the news to defeat a southeast asian ragtag army(AFP) and that when i become the great, great american president resilient that i am would give the hint: i am your fellow-commie US resident thus, shall i create chaos and anarchy, in congress, uproar well, watch those NPAs and G2s laugh and roar shall i make a fool of myself when i make it known, such as in this era we seek to dispel the myth: we are such "useful idiots", my dear elvira try mocking me for economic sabotage and defrauding the american public and i shall place you behind bars for making love to me, a lunatic Signed: John Hinckley Ana Montes Aldrich Ames Lee Harvey Oswald Hillary Clinton Bill Clinton John Kerry Teresa Heinz Kerry Kim Philby |

Zero Wing, The M109A5/A6 Paladin IS NOT A TANK!!! It's a self-propelled artillery platform!!! The Philippine Army needs new artillery, but they don't have to be Paladins when you can get similar self-propelled guns like the just as effective M110, used by many countries such as South Korea.
Epigone, You're really are paranoid, man! You blame the Liberals for everything! And Liberals/Democrats are NOT the same thing as Commies!  Just because someone is pro-union does not make them a commie, so how can unions be commies if they just want better wages? If they rebelled, they would be destroying the source of their income! Also, just because someone wants to regulate business does not mean they want to get rid of it altogether. That's why the US has such a burgeoning economy but regulates it with laws like anti-trust laws! Look at Clinton and how he encouraged trade with China- and now China is more capitalist than communist now since the CCP is accepting more entrepreneurs into its ranks! hehehe... In the same way that you see govt. agencies as subject to corruption, so are giant Corporate Conglomerates- they are NOT infallible! Liberals believe in rights, not privilieges... and some of the most versatile American Liberals in history were also staunchly anti-communist, such as US Presidents FDR, Harry Truman and JFK. While the politics of the Philippines are not as polarized as in they are the US and Canada, I think some of what I said still applies... Being Liberal is not being left- it is about a balance. I'll leave it to you to figure out this last sentence I said. You're really PARANOID, Epigone...now please take your political rants to the Politics thread or elsewhere! Ewann...the quality of the postings at PDFF is starting to go down with political ranters like this guy and amateurs who post like one sentence just to voice agreement or whatever in barely understandable English... |

The US maybe the world's number one arms provider but Russian arms sales in Asia are MORE THAN DOUBLE those of America. | Go to Next Page | |
