The delivery of T-90S tanks to Vietnam began

According to the Interfax news agency, Russia began deliveries of T-90S and T-90SK tanks under a contract with Vietnam, Interfax was informed by Mikhail Petukhov, the head of the official Russian delegation at the Defense & Security exhibition, deputy director of the FSMTC of Russia.

"As a result of a series of negotiations between Russian and Vietnamese experts, a contract was signed for the delivery of T-90S and T-90SK tanks, and the parties have now started implementing it," Petukhov said.

Earlier in the public annual report of Uralvagonzavod it was reported that in 2017 the contract with the customer "704" (Vietnam) for supply of 64 T-90S/SK tanks should start.

Russia is also discussing with Vietnam the supply of anti-aircraft missile systems, Petukhov said. "The Vietnamese side is engaged in a dialogue on the supply, repair and modernization of anti-aircraft missile systems and complexes of various types," he said, answering the question whether Vietnam has an interest in acquiring S-400 air defense systems.

"At present, the parties define the nomenclature, according to which cooperation will be carried out," the deputy head of the FSVTS emphasized.

Vietnam is one of Russia's key partners in the field of military-technical cooperation.

In July, at the MAKS airshow, the head of Rosoboronexport, Alexander Mikheev, said that Russia would supply Vietnam with naval equipment and tanks on credit. Earlier, he said that a significant amount of supplies to Vietnam in the field of military-technical cooperation were being implemented. According to him, in Vietnam, thanks to Russia, an underwater fleet with all the infrastructure was created.

Russia lost the contract of Pantsir-S1 for Vietnam due to Chinese components?

No references, no exact proclaims of said components. Sounds like more of a jab at import substitution (which they we're wrong in since Russia has been producing rad hard components for years).

Also article from 2016.

2015/2016 was the time Vietnam picked Spyder SAM as winner so the claim had been importing situations years before that. For me, it sounds logical and believable for the claim.

But it would be helpful for there to be references and to specify which part. Being vague doesn't help. Especially when we know of exact components made now that are rad hardened made in country.

Maybe there is lobbying that made Spyder win? Maybe the export variant of Pantsirs does use Chinese components? Maybe there is a lot not being said.

Don't believe everything you read.

The Socialist Republic of Vietnam is interested in buying four more Gepard-class frigates from Russia

Vietnam plans to order four more frigates of the project 11661 “Cheetah-3.9” to the Zelenodolsk Gorky Shipbuilding Plant. Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov and Vietnamese Ambassador to the Russian Federation Ngo Duc Manem discussed the issue of supplying an additional batch of ships.

According to TsAMTO, citing Soha.vn, the Vietnamese side is also interested in purchasing KamAZ trucks and Mi-17 helicopters.

The first contract for the supply of a pair of frigates of the project "Cheetah-3.9" Zelenodolsk plant and Vietnam signed in 2006, in 2011 the ships entered service. The intergovernmental contract for the supply of the second pair of patrol ships was concluded in October 2012. The third "Cheetah" arrived in Vietnam at the end of October 2017, and the fourth - in January 2018.

The first T-90S tanks for Vietnam

Uralvagonzavod is successfully implementing the contract for the supply of T-90S tanks for Vietnam.

On October 19, a report about “bathing the T-90”, more precisely about hydro testing conducted at the UVZ, was shown Components for Vietnam differs little from the Russian. And almost completely corresponds to what else in 2013 UVZ showed at an exhibition in Peru. The main external difference: the “old” “square” screens on the sides, the Blind-1M, the air conditioner and a slightly different reservation of the cover of the night sight.

While some of the tanks are still in assembly, the first samples are already being used to train Vietnamese tankers in one of the Russian training centers (I know which one, but they were asked not to disclose). Along with a complete set other than Russian cars, the “Vietnamese” are also distinguished by their characteristic camouflage, very similar to the one we used before the introduction of a monochromatic green color.

Two OPK sources tell Vedomosti that Vietnam signed a contract for at least 12 Yak-130 combat training aircraft worth more than $350 million in 2019 (becoming the 6th foreign customer), which might pave the way for a future Su-30SM or Su-35 contract.

due to the climate Vietnam doesnt need masses of heavy MBT's i always thought T-55 was quite a good choice for them, but obviously limited even with upgrades. Maybe a mix of BMPT, BMP-3 including BMP-3 versions armed with 57mm, would be a better choice, and possibly some 2S25 sprut-SD would be better, they could replace some of the chinese built tanks in service. ATGW vehicles would also be useful. light and medium weight tanks is likely what they need but problem is not many options available. Turkey and Indonesia joint developed the MMWT a medium weight tank armed with a 105mm gun and weight around 32-35 tons with reasonable protection. although in my opinion with weight around 35 tons i think it would have been better with a 125mm gun giving better firepower and would help streamline munitions stock and also have the ability to fire ATGW.

Vietnam is again negotiating the acquisition of a third pair of "Gepard" type frigates

According to the magazine Expert, in the article by Aleksey Khazbiev, “Hanoi wants a couple more Gepards”, the Vietnamese Navy is determined to buy a third pair of light frigates in Russia - this time equipped with Caliber supersonic missiles. These ships will cost Hanoi about $ 800 million. But the deal will only take place if the political leadership of Vietnam can persuade the Ukrainian authorities to allow the delivery of gas turbine engines to Russia, the production of which we have not been able to master.

I posted it this morning on the Russia Vietnam military cooperation thread...

https://www.russiadefence.net/t768p25-russia-vietnam-military-cooperation

400 million $ for a Gepard ?! I would never buy it for more than 100 million $, if not less. For such price they can get a brand new Grigorovitch with much better capabilities and real air def systems.
