Looks like it. I wonder if they can learn from the 30mm RWS working experience, and perhaps they could develop a domestic RWS utilizing the Bofors 40mm? Perhaps they could develop a autocannon SHORAD like this.

I've heard some rumors...apparently we will soon receive at least 2 more Pantsir S1 and 3 FK-3 batteries, maybe some before the end of this year.

I don't know about truthfulness of these rumors, though... dunno

Well I certainly hope so because current number can only be described as starter package

As for FK-3 I didn't know we even received the first ones, did we? I didn't see any

Pretty much everything we bought lately could do another batch (Pantsirs, Eurocopters, Mi-8s, Mi-35s, etc...)

I know cops are getting 3 Super Pumas so they could stop mooching off military every time they need to move something bigger than a backpack around

Plus at some point we will have to buy something from Americans before they start getting their panties in a bunch but other than Red Hawks I can't figure out what, everything we could need from them we either make ourselves or Israelis make much better ones than USA...

Some C-130s maybe (do we even need those?)

I just don't know...

Actually, our government did a rebalance of MOD budget for additional 400 million of USD, for this year. That means we will buy weapons worth of more than 610 million USD, this year alone. MOD budget have risen to almost 1.4 billion USD, for 2021.

As I understood, they are talking about more MI-35M's (4-6 at least), maybe more H-145 and who knows what else.

There are even some rumors about buying French Ground Master radars...

Last 9 days more than 10 transport planes came from Russia and Belarus, with 2 MIG-29's, 20 BRDM-2M's and maybe 19 tanks T-72 BMS. Planes are still arriving, every day.

Also, our factories will make 24 LAZAR 3's, 20 MILOS-16's and 12 NORA B-52's for our army, this year.

FK-3 is still not here, it's supposed to arrive at the end of this or through the next year. Some government people are also talking about additional 2 Pantsir S1 batteries, maybe even 1 additional AN-26, but who knows what is the truth.

That's all I have found out.

I went over some more rumours (I emphasise rumours because nothing is ever confirmed) and here's the general list:

Russia: Choppers and tanks like you said, other stuff probably

China: FK-3

France: Super Puma helicopters (plus more H-145 they are sort of French), radars, MICA AA system

Turkey: Baryaktar drones

USA: Armoured vehicles, radars, ''various equipment'' (no idea what they mean by this)

Israel: Recon equipment

Ireland: Spare parts (engines probably)

Just hoping there won't be too many "political acquisitions".

We need good stuff for our money and we need a lot of it.

If these rumours are true then ''political acquisitions'' will not be an issue because this is a good spread and it's the stuff we do need

And it looks like we finally are getting local production in gear, massive improvement over disaster from before

As far as political acquisitions go Serbian artillery is being tested in the US, if the actual sales go through to Uncle Sham then you know what exactly comes next.

Americans don't buy things to get political strings attached, they sell you things to get it like in case of Saudis of get them free of charge like in case of Russia until recently

It seems our AD officers have finished their training in China and had a shooting exercise with new FK-3 system. That means we will get it really soon. Cool

Are they satisfied with its capabilities ? It's based on the old s-75 system.

I believe they are quite satisfied, that is the most advanced AD system we will have, besides Pantsir.

By the way, we will receive 2 more Pantsir batteries, probably till the end of this year.

With 3 FK-3 batteries, that will be it, for a while.

We will probaly receive another batch of Mi-35M and Mi-17V5 helies, soon.

Russia supplied Serbia with a batch of T-72MS tanks and BRDM-2M patrol vehicles

Russia handed over to Serbia a batch of T-72MS tanks and armored reconnaissance and patrol vehicles BRDM-2MS as part of military-technical assistance. This is reported by "Interfax" with reference to the Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Alexander Fomin.

The ceremony of handing over the vehicles took place in the city of Nis on the territory of the 3rd Mechanized Brigade of the Serbian Ground Forces.

"The combat strength of the Serbian armed forces was replenished with modernized T-72MS tanks and armored reconnaissance and patrol vehicles BRDM-2M of Russian production," Fomin said during the event.

He added that the supplied equipment will strengthen the combat potential of the Serbian army, will contribute to the fulfillment of tasks to protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country.

The Deputy Minister noted that the RF Ministry of Defense plans to further develop and strengthen bilateral relations, rendering assistance in the modernization of the Serbian Armed Forces.

Earlier it was reported that Russian-Serbian anti-terrorist exercises were launched in Serbia.

T-72B1MS (White Eagle) may not look like much from the outside but it's the best T-72 derivative in existence by far, it's full Gucci with all bells and whistles

We scored big time with this one

Advantage of being small, you can go for full package

T-72B1MS really has a good electronic filling. There is even a panoramic sight of the commander, which is not present on the T-72B3. But it has weak protection and not the most powerful engine.
