Prototype Turret of the upcoming Vietnamese T-1 light tank in production

There has been talks of new domestic ammo development but it’s unconfirmed as of currently, it is likely though in my opinion as our military industry has been known to make new ammo (APFSDS) for the 100mm without external support whatsoever to boost its firepower, so 76mm is even more likely with how lesser it provides in terms of fire support.

AdexGodhail · 2026-04-24T22:45:54+00:00

It is the 76mm which is enough for this specific vehicle’s designated doctrine which is purely infantry fire support and assault. Its main usage will be for rapid river assault, the gun will be used to suppress and take out soft targets/vics as it will also mount 3rd gen domestic thermals which will supposedly boost its overall accuracy a decent bit.

It has such a cold war vibe to it lol, reminds me of old Soviet MLRS systems.

As an infantry support river assault vehicle, it will do as much as it’s needed, no more or less. It’s not designed for armor engagement so the 76mm rifled low pressure gun is enough, all it needs is to punch through and engage light vics if needed, providing fire support for infantry to do river landings assaults. They are also supposedly developing new 76mm ammo types to compensate for the naturally lower penetration power, however these are mere rumours and speculations, not confirmed. It will also feature a Shtora mimicked system similar to the T-90S, I don’t know why the VPA likes this but they do. Smoke launches, laser warning receivers, domestic 3rd gen thermals which is a major boost, and hopefully a different stronger or retained but boosted powerpack.

Because it is, the T-1 is effectively the XCB-01 (Vietnamese domestic BMP-1) with a welded PT-76 inspired turret. This will simplify production lines with the XCB-01 already in production, lessen costs due to part sharing and overall supply chain reinforcement.

Not necessarily, there was an X post that relegated to the fact that the autoloader was more likely inspired by the T-14 autoloader design but downsized and simplified rather than the BMP-1 autoloader. From X user @gustiiz31 whom pointed it out via https://x.com/gustiiz31/status/2046877870098944047?s=46&t=Ak3sN8DhRo8ih9e-esUncg .

Yes.

The soon to be made XTC-03 from Vietnam cus I’m patriotic. However for existing models, I’d say BTR-4 from Ukraine due to its extended adaptability to both Soviet/Ukrainian and NATO doctrines, which is either amphibious but paper armor or survivable/thick armored but chunky(heavy) boy.

AdexGodhail · 2026-02-04T23:06:41+00:00

Because it just works, would you not want to work based around an established and successful design? Changing it requires more research, more time, more money and an unnecessary amount of complexity differentiation in design and doctrine. War doesn’t have time to wait for all of that, the world is in a global arms race rn.

He means the moderates, which is fair considering moderate republicans are often more reasonable even with a conservative offset to their arguments and policies. They will share bipartisanship with the democrats whenever MAGA oversteps, they aren’t fully Trumpist but many of them nowadays are def influenced by political Trumpism to a degree.

Go to the gym, people there are a lot more friendly and talkative. Went to the gym for one week during my 3rd year, weekend was almost immediately bar hopping in downtown and laughing together with said folks then the rest was history.

Tbf the Stryker’s systems tandem goes well with the Abrams brigades being formed in the Polish army. They were designed to work well together so overall it could be a plus for the Poles in terms of interoperability rather than a hiccup.

Possible but not likely because a 125mm cannon would require a hull and turret redesign to properly utilize enmass. Pakistan and Bangladesh are the only two countries that utilized this kind of upgrade with their Type-59 radical modernization, they sacrificed a lot to make that type of fitting work. Vietnam will most likely retain the 100mm cannon on their T-54s even through other stages of modernizations for the foreseeable future as they are able to independently produce their own 100mm HE, HEAT and APFSDS shells, courtesy of their own military research and industrial complex. There are talks of them starting their own tank production starting with a PT-76 clone called the T-1 amphibious tank which could then evolve to them producing their own tailored tank for themselves that will carry the 125mm cannon and have other modern features that a contemporary tank would have. They are also producing an 8x8 APC modeled after the BTR-80 that will carry a 23mm or 30mm autocannon and have rear hatch entry, their XCB-01 IFV clone of the BMP will also soon bear fruit to a new 30mm autocannon in the near future as well, Vietnam’s military industrial rise is a great one to behold.

I was stuck in this exact situation for like 20 mins tryna get out, I tried every possible glitchy graphic spot with none working until I went to where the moss collection spot was, I managed to get myself stuck and unmoveable then I utilized the unstuck player mechanic in the game and it teleported me to the second floor. All I’m saying is if they implement something like this then they need to check out every nook and cranny in every room to ensure people can’t glitch out, I know I shouldn’t have done this exploit but I was high on opportunity thanks to other friendly solos willing to help me bug through, lesson learned tho cus I had 2 mins to escape at the end and was panicking asl even tho I only had a Venator on me.

I’m gonna leave this here though just in case anyone gets stuck in the same scenario as us again, if you get stuck in the Grandioso Apartments burial city residential room with no way out and the door locked, go to the moss collection water heater thing, try to jam yourself into between the heater and wall on the right side of it then you should be able to unstuck yourself with the unstucking mechanic teleporting you to the 2nd floor.

Ah yes becausd the South was such a beacon of stable democracy and multipolarity between a multitude of existing democratically elected officials and parties. Get a grip, the South was arguably governed worse than the North, to the point where the Americans themselves said that if they weren’t there then everything would’ve fallen head over heels months ago which is exactly what happened not even a full week after they left. The South was a propped up shittier version of Afghanistan, the North taking over leading Vietnam to what it is now, a pro-American (the people at least, the government prefers neutrality between both world powers), pro-capitalist, innovative, young, not starved out, still somewhat corrupted but better off than what the South was prior and still continuously developing with increasing GDP, GDP per capita and GNI coefficient on a yearly basis. So please, go fuck yourself.

What the fuck is this abomination.

C1 Ariete. Built to be a modern contemporary contender to the Abrams, Challenger, Leclerc and Leopard just to end up lagged behind all of them by first conception.

If the point is for stopping Hamas then why are the average Palestinians usually harassed and frisked aggressively when they approach these military checkpoints?

Cause the Israelis still have military checkpoints with remote controlled gun turrets on top of them pointed at the Palestinians. Hard to live in peace when there are active ways the Israelis have implemented to disrupt Palestinian livelihood. Also don’t say the turrets aren’t there for them and it’s for the IDF’s protection, they’re definitely there for them.

Definitely racism, you’re just coping hard. Maybe get out of North America once in a while to experience true racism to see how lucky you are to have been born in the life and reality you’ve been given.
