Amid rising international tensions in various parts of the world, here are three topics
0:12
that drew a particular interest from our visitors on armyrecognition.com. New information about the Turkish amphibious assault vehicle ZAHA project to be operated
0:21
from the multipurpose amphibious assault ship TCG Anadolu has been released. FNSS will deliver a total of 27 vehicles, 23 personnel carriers, two command and control
0:33
vehicles and two rescue recovery vehicles. The contract was signed between SSB and FNSS in Ankara on 7 March 2017 in order to meet
0:44
the needs of the Turkish Navy, the Marine Corps. The hull design and powerful water jets give ZAHA high mobility with a maximum speed of
0:51
70 km an hour on land and 7 knots on water. ZAHA is fitted with a remotely controlled weapon station housing a 12.7 mm machine gun
1:01
and a 40 mm automatic grenade launcher. The South Korean company Hanwha Defence is ready to send its AS21 Redback armoured infantry
1:10
fighting vehicle to Australia to conduct local testing and evaluation. The Redback was selected last September as one of the final two candidates for Australia's
1:19
armoured vehicle project. In September 2019, Australia announced that two companies were shortlisted for the Australian
1:27
Land 400 Phase 3 that consists of the acquisition of 450 tracked IFVs to replace the 113 AS4
1:37
armoured personnel carriers. Rheinmetall offers its KF41 Lynx while Hanwha Defence proposes its AS21 Redback
1:46
The Redback is based on the K21 currently in service with the South Korean Army
1:51
It has a larger internal volume to accommodate eight soldiers on top of a three-man crew
1:56
Like the original K21, the AS21 Redback is armed with a 40 mm automatic cannon, a 7.62
2:04
mm correction machine gun and a 12.7 mm machine gun mounted on turrets
2:09
The backside of the roof turret is fitted with the Nagatan guided missile launchers
2:13
The vehicle will be fitted with a new generation of active protection system
2:17
Qatar is now equipped with the most modern combat vehicles made in Germany, including
2:23
the Leopard 2A7 Plus main battle tank, the PzH 2000 self-propelled howitzer, the Dingo
2:29
2 HD 4x4 armoured vehicle and the Fennec 4x4 light reconnaissance armoured vehicle
2:35
According to Military Balance 2020, Qatar is attempting to transform its military capabilities
2:40
and the regional defence standing based on significant equipment acquisitions with the
2:45
aim of creating one of the most well-equipped forces in the region
2:50
The speed and scale of the equipment plans suggest that Qatar will need significant foreign
2:54
help to integrate and operate its new capabilities. In 2013, Qatar placed an order with KMW 462 Leopard 2A7 Plus
3:05
The first ones were delivered in 2016 by Kroos Mathieu Wegman. Qatar purchased Dingo 2 heavy duty armoured vehicles based on a Unimog chassis, so becoming
3:16
the first customer for this vehicle. 14 units have been delivered in three versions, Ambulance, Command Post and Radar reconnaissance
3:26
These vehicles have also been optimised for use under high temperatures. In 2014, Qatar also ordered 32 Fennec reconnaissance vehicles that were delivered from 2017 to 2019
3:39
The Fennec is a 4x4 armoured vehicle produced in Germany by KMW

This week, you expressed a particular interest in the following topics for the naval sector
3:49
First, French Navy future nuclear attack submarine, Sufren, begins trial in Toulon
3:54
Second, Hellenic Navy commissioned six Super Vita-class fast attacking crafts. And last but not least, the US Navy is investing in Mine Quantum Measure Unmanned Vehicle
4:04
Night Fish Program. On July 29, 2020, the Sufren, first out of six nuclear attack submarine of the Barracuda
4:12
Program, will arrive at Toulon Naval Base to begin a new phase of testing in the Mediterranean Sea
4:18
Led by the General Directorate of Armaments and by the French Navy, sea trials is necessary
4:23
preliminary step before the final delivery of the ship planned in 2020
4:28
The arrival of Sufren in Toulon marks a new milestone in its test program
4:33
For the record, the submarine was launched in 1998, with the construction beginning in 2006
4:39
The Barracuda Program will modernize French submarine nuclear fleet. The first four will be delivered by 2025, and the French Navy will be able to gradually
4:49
retire and decommission its first generation of nuclear power attack submarines. Hellenic Navy commissioned six Super Vita-class fast attacking crafts with a ceremony held
5:01
at Skaramanga Naval Shipyard on July 28, 2020. Also known as Rusen class, the new ship will be named Karatanzis with hull number P-78
5:11
During the commissioning ceremony, the Greece Minister of Defense Nikolaos Panagiotopoulos emphasized the importance of naval power of Greece in the Aegean Sea and Eastern Mediterranean region
5:24
First ship of the class was launched in November 2002 and commissioned in December 2005
5:31
Last ship of the class, P-79, will likely be launched next year
5:35
The Rusen class fast attack craft are based on a stretched variant of the successful Vita
5:40
design in use with the navies of Qatar and Oman. General Dynamics, which provides engineering support for the Navy's NIFIS system, is set
5:49
to get an additional $13.6 million for continued program support. This comes on top of the initial $9.2 million contract that General Dynamics received for
6:00
the program for the Navy. The Naval Sea Systems Commands of the U.S. Navy selected General Dynamics Advanced Information
6:07
Systems as the prime contractor to develop NIFIS as part of its Surface Mine Quantum
6:13
Measure Unmanned Underwater Vehicle program. The program is intended to be completed by September of next year, after which full-rate
6:21
production will begin in 2022. The Navy has expressed interest in purchasing a total of 39 FISH systems, 24 of which will
6:31
support littoral combat ship operations and 6 of which will be used in other ships that
6:37
may face threats from naval mines. In the many important topics released this week by Air Recognition Editorial Team, you
6:45
showed a particular interest in the following ones. First, Egypt will receive its first Sukhoi Su-35 fighter aircraft from Russia
6:54
Second, the first five Indian Air Force Rafale fighter jets arrived in India
6:59
And to conclude this video, the first Huron TP male UAV for Germany completed first successful
7:05
flight in Israel. In March 2019, it was reported that Egypt would procure two dozen of Sukhoi Su-35 in
7:13
a deal valued about $2 billion. Deliveries were expected to begin as early as 2020 or 2021
7:23
Deputy Head of the Rosoboronexport, Sergei Kornev, denied the signing of any contract
7:29
to supply Su-35s to Egypt. The first batch of five Rafale fighter jets built for the Indian Air Force by French aircraft
7:38
manufacturer Dassault Aviations arrived at Ambala Air Force Station in the state of Ariana
7:44
on July 29. These jets departed Dassault Aviation's Marignac facility in France on July 2007 and covered
7:53
nearly 7,000 from the Marignac airbase near the French port city of Bordeaux
7:58
In 2016, India signed an intergovernmental agreement with France to purchase 36 Rafale
8:04
fighter jets in flyaway condition for $8.8 billion. Out of the 36 Rafales ordered by the IAF, 28 are single-seat jets designated Rafale-EH
8:17
and the remaining are dual-seat jets designated Rafale-DH. According to information released on Jerusalem Post website on July 26, 2020, the first Huron
8:28
male TP UAV has completed its first successful flight in Israel before the delivery to the
8:34
German Armed Forces. In June 2018, Germany has signed a leasing agreement for the Israel Aerospace Industries
8:44
male Huron TP unmanned aerial vehicle. Under this contract, the German Army will receive five male Huron TP able to conduct
8:52
reconnaissance missions but that can be also armed. The UAV was modified according the requirements and the needs of the German Ministry of Defence
