Weapons and equipment analysis focused on Cambodia and ASEAN nations (sometimes).
#Cambodia | #Thailand We are back with Checkpoint Charlie. However, RCA defenses are reportedly pulled deeper inland.
Some are seeking to explain the origins of the Thai-Cambodia clash by invoking domestic rivalries in Thai politics. My thoughts on why this theory makes little sense, and why the conflict is far better explained by an international family feud: coffeeparliament.com/p/on-the-domes…
Minor correction here: There is no CIS M16S1, but a Norinco CQ-B assault rifle.
#Cambodia | #Thailand RCA weapons captured by RTA after the takeover of Preah Vihear Temple. Weapons are: - Kalashnikov AK-47 Type 2 - Norinco Type 56 - Norinco Type 56-I - CIS M16S1 - Norinco LG3 (in the box) - Norinco LG4 - Type 69 (RPG)
Same as above but Type 85 armored personnel carriers also make an appearance.
#Cambodia | #Thailand [PSA] This video is misinformation, what you are seeing is footage from Colombia (identification via fatigues sporting Colombian camo pattern), most likely the Colombian military engaging FARC forces. Colombia is a major user of the Black Hawk platform.
#Cambodia | #Thailand Confirmed RTA presence at the Cambodian-Thai Border near Poipet. A BTR-3E1 IFV and BTR-3CS command vehicle can be spotted in this video.
Thai BTR-3 armored personnel carriers have been deployed near the Poipet–Khlong Lek border crossing.
#Cambodia | #Thailand Confirmed standoff at the Cambodian-Thai Border (not near the frontline). RTA M60A3 MBTs and Type 85 APCs are present.
#Cambodia | #Thailand Footage from Cambodian civilians shows them testing the ordinance release mechanism of homemade drones.
#Cambodia | #Thailand The RTA has begun preparing their sole VL MICA SAM system (battery) for mobilisation.
#Cambodia | #Thailand RCA weapons captured by RTA after the takeover of Preah Vihear Temple. Weapons are: - Kalashnikov AK-47 Type 2 - Norinco Type 56 - Norinco Type 56-I - CIS M16S1 - Norinco LG3 (in the box) - Norinco LG4 - Type 69 (RPG)
