The relatively simple design and low cost of the missile has since led to its wide distribution among guerrilla groups. The cost of an SA-7 can be as low as $5,000.

In the last 15 years, more than 50,000 shoulder-fired missiles have been sold to Third World countries

At the very beginning of video a brown pile of smoke was explosion caused by ammunition fired by Cobra Attack Helicopter at ground target near by, the militant just returned fire using SA-7 instantly, within seconds from aiming to firing the helicopter was struck into 2 parts, the tail & rotor lost, the copter span and exploded and then crashed gone within less than 2 mins. It costs US$10.7 million to buy each of this American toys. While Putin's missile only costed US$5000!

HUAT AH!

You can see the militant is not very well equipped, no SBO helmet etc. Not very trained. From cocking the handle then stood up to aim and fire only less than 10 seconds. Fucking easy!
 
Why is Kurdish shooting down Turkey helicopters?

I thought American are helping them to fight ISIS?
 
Russian weapons always cheap and reliable and deadly effective. American weapons always expensive and uselessly defeated. Huat Ah!

The turk sare up against pkk backed kurk whom primary aim is to set up kurdistan, carved from syria, iraq, iran n turkey. Kurks in general r just chasing out the islamic extremists fr their percieved territory. Turks r preventing this expansion from her soil. Its a centuries old war as old as the jesuit rumor.
 
I am certain our vaunted SAF has even more high tech missiles. The jiuhukias and indons better not fuck around with us.
 
10.5million helicopter can't evade a low tech fire from the ground? Hand held launcher some more.

Think they can retire this piece of junk for good. Why the copter don't have any adequate defence against such low grade attack?

Indonesia? The just need to send a few frigate and park outside our ports and send a few boats of people outside our sea. The question is, do you hat the balls to shoot and offend the big brother of South East Asia?

I still like better the real story of BlackHawk Down in which several Bigger copters where Shotdown by even CHEAPER RPG-7 which each round of RPG-7 ammo is $100 only.

It caused Bill Clinton to withdraw from Somalia immediately and fled his ass far away. Tun Dr M sent Malaysian MAF armoured trucks to rescue to remaining US Ranger survivors, or else all will be killed.


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Mogadishu_(1993)


The Battle of Mogadishu or Day of the Rangers (Somali: Maalintii Rangers), was part of Operation Gothic Serpent and was fought from 3–4 October 1993, in Mogadishu, Somalia, between forces of the United States, supported by UNOSOM II, and Somali militiamen loyal to the self-proclaimed president-to-be Mohamed Farrah Aidid, who had support from armed civilian fighters. The battle is also referred to as the First Battle of Mogadishu to distinguish it from subsequent battles in that city, such as the Second Battle of Mogadishu of 2006.

The initial U.S. Joint Special Operations force, Task Force Ranger, was a collaboration of various elite special forces units from Army Special Operations Command, Air Force Special Operations Command and Navy Special Warfare Command. Task Force Ranger was dispatched to seize two of Aidid's high-echelon lieutenants during a meeting in the city. The goal of the operation was achieved, though conditions spiraled into the deadly Battle of Mogadishu. The initial operation of 3 October 1993, intended to last an hour, became an overnight standoff and rescue operation extending into daylight hours of 4 October.

Sg has the most advanced military hardware in South-East Asia. But it is Peesai that better not fuck with any of her neighbours. We' be sorry if we did and some trouble starts.

Cheers!

SG is a useless vulnerable insecure CHICKEN which spend on lots of expensive weapons to hope to be safe. But that indeed will not work.
 
What's the point of advanced weapons when you have scholar generals who have never been to real combat-only exercise.

How about morale of conscripts who see foreigners been given special treatment.?

You can fix certain things but when it comes to war, good luck!
