You are here play down the achiements of SG in defense
gears.
It is ok. SG will not get hurt. u mean it take much longer time
than SG said
for completion of projects,and SG is copy cat, like SAR 21
rifle.
Does TAVOR has built in sight
which can reduce the burden of zeroing?
SG is a
smart integrator,and not shame to
admit it
1.i agree R n D in defense is a high risks exercises. U have to
pay
for lessons learnt. I think the money spent in past few decades
worth
every single cents. U look at this calmy then u will know
why.
SG is a smart integrator,
it can roll out almost all small/
medium
and important defense hard and soft wares under its
name,
except few major platforms,like sub, fighters, MBT
etc.
u name it!
From rifle, medium/ heavy machine guns, air burst grenade
launcher ( which country can produce air burst
weapons?).
rifle cum
air burst grenade launcher, to SPH,
SG can integrate sub systems from many countries and roll
out
in much shorter time than other first world countries.
Money saved is not the most imoportant. Wat matter is
it show gavamna really care for defense. Defense matters!!
SG is not shame to admit it import sub system. China always
maintain local weapons and equipmens are 100 % home
design and home made.

U compare the US EFV then u know SG is really fast to roll
out products.
All USA army
IFV cannot swim, include Strykers!
All SG IFV and
support vehicles can swim.
Bionix Infantry Fighting Vehicle
Expeditionary
Fighting Vehicle (EFV)--15 years after first
prototypes,
still in
design phrase
USA want to replace the vintage amphibious vehicles
" the aging Amphibious Assault Vehicle (AAV) which entered
service in 1972[3",
First prototypes of EFV was rolled out between 1995 to 2001.
But 2 nd and 3 rd Gen prototypes have been made and Low Rate
Production is expected 2012 to 2015!
Why it take so long to roll out a vehicle?
U believe it or not. SG roll out new vehicles from concepts
to fielding in less than 10 years, mostly around 7
years!
USA and other western countries have the lexury of no-time
-frame
in defense projects. They can afford delay the fielding of
platforms.
they really dunt care for the survival and safety of their
soldiers.
US soldiers continue use the same platform that their
granddad
used 40 years ago.( do u think USA upgrade can change a
lot?)
Who cares?
again, very advanced technoloy adopted in EFV is NOT an
excuse!
They even no need to explain why it take so long to
complete.
Can SG roll
out EFV much faster?
does any one know the highest sea state that SG
Amphibious vehicles ,eg Bionix, Brocnco and
Terrex can tolerate?
With over 14 years experieces in using amphibious Bionix,
i think SG can also make EFV muxh faster.
Bionix is designed , i think , for crossing rivers and not
so
rough sea state.
EFV is designed to swim from ships to shore in a much
rough sea state
than Bionix.
I dunt think it is a big problems for SG to design such
amphibious Bionix.

Am I here to play down the achievements of SG - or am I simply
puncturing your jingoistic efforts to blow hot air up your arse
?
Does SG need the kind of jingoistic attempts to embarrass
ourselves, or has the SAF not maintained a quiet low profile,
only to raise its head at every necessary moment as a soft reminder
?
Is a smart integrator equal a reflection of efficiency - when
all it require is for us to absorb all the lessons learnt from
others, so as to shorten our own learning curve ?
While others have paid for their lessons in blood - we simply
pick up the pieces and prepare ourselves for the worst without
losing a drop of blood.
Does that qualify your kind of jingoistic crap to demean the
capabilities of other more mature military organisations whom we
take lessons from ?
All the bullshit you published are the "cut and paste" from
publicity materials that ST has put up to polish their image and
used as marketing tools.
Were you involved in the years of behind the scene
ST 'private investments' in all the different programs at
the experimental stage - before these were put into a package for
the development of a specific program ?
The Bionix was a result of the many years of
experiment working with Timoney in the upgrading of
the AMX SM-1 - which led to the next program to
upgrade the M-113, and continuing with the ongoing
program to merge some of the various features of the AMX-10
into a vehicle that suits our purpose.
How close were you involved in these early experimental stages
that finally got the Bionix program started as a clear mission to
ST ?
Concerning the 1x telescopic sight integrated to the SAR-21 - it
has received alot of cynical remarks about its real effectiveness -
what are you bragging about ?
It is better for you to read up again about the air-burst
ammunition before you go about bragging about ST's air burst
weapon.
Try not to put the cart before the horse.
This is not a product that was developed by ST - and was already
around as early as in the mid-1960s - with more sophisticated
versions appearing in the 1990s and developed by Oerlikons as well
as Bofors.
Did you ‘read your own thread dated 20 Nov 08
11.45AM’ ?
You did print then -
Air-bursting grenade in rifle,SSW , &
GL --What did SG achieve?
I am here not to overstate SG's achievement ,nor to under
state
other countries/companies' achievemnets,nor to offend any
one.
Almost two years later, you continue to blow hot air up your
arse.
Is your mind bankrupt and need any boost of false pride to
generate new threads ?
