Hasan Hadi Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Myanmar today signed a contract for Pantsir S1 air defense systems during Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu’s visit to the country. Aside of Pantsir, Russia will also supply Orlan-10E reconnaissance drones and radar stations, Interfax reported today. In a recent interview, Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexander Fomin hinted at the possibility of finalizing the deal. “Russia has already delivered MiG-29 and Yak-130 aircraft, Mi-17 and Mi-24 helicopters to Myanmar. In the coming years, they may buy more aircraft, armored vehicles as well as Russian-made air defense systems,” he told the local media. Myanmar has also ordered six Su-30 jets, delivery of which will be completed by the end of 2022. https://www.defenseworld.net/news/28816/Russia_to_Supply_Pantsir_Anti_Aircraft_Systems_to_Myanmar#.YFcUv6_7SUk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Maisson Posted July 6, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 6, 2021 Myanmar is building a powerful air defence system to prolong their isolation. They will be a victim of their own success like North Korea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite Members Asaf Shahi Posted July 7, 2021 Elite Members Share Posted July 7, 2021 We saw how well the Pantsyr performed against IDF aircraft in Syria. Nothing is impregnatable, there are solutions for every problem. Pantsyr can't do anything against a massive rocket barrage that will saturate an entire area the size of two football fields in seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only they'll be left holding is a skeletal remain of Myanmar. However, I understand ASEAN's apprehension going against Junta. They don't want refugee upheaval coming their way! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
