    De-facto they considered NK as part of Armenia, & lost more men fighting for it & Armenian interests there than the locals:

    Apparently, there is some question as to whether Armenia purchased missiles and other munitions for its four Su-30SM fighters, which could be part of why they played little to no role in the fighting

    I've listened to Alievs interviews and then Pushynian.

    I don't have much love for Azeris but sure as hell they have better leader that is much smarter and cunning than I gave credit for. If I was Azeri, I would definitely hold him in much higher regard.

    I am myself happy with the outcome - barbarism aside, Armenians did nothing with the land and weren't able to muster defences to hold on it. There was no Stalingrad there, they fought like cowardly idiots. Not only they blame Russians that their trenches weren't deep enough, but they are blaming annanews and wargozno relaying locations of troops and artillery systems during their pro-armenian reports Laughing

    With north vietnam style tunnels, they would have hold all NK.

    Azeri didn't do better. With air dominance they sustained as much damages as armenians. But at the end they could destroy more hardware thanks to stupid decisions of armenians and lack of modern stuff in the opposite side.

    Azeri clearly lack training and good generals. What helped them was trukish military. Without turkey they would have lost.

    They should have hired the North Koreans. They are experts on tunnel building and would have worked on the cheap. They could have held out for years.

    In 1991-94 Armenians had army in NK.

    In 2020 Armenia did not send any troops to NK. If they were smart, half of Armenian army should be in NK 3 days after hostilities started.

    (the other half should be clearing the Nakhchivan pocket)

    Vladimir Bruter believes that Armenia did not recognize Nagorno Karabakh due to international pressure.
    "Recognizing Karabakh would mean that Armenia claims a part of the internationally recognized territory of Azerbaijan. The previous Armenian leadership did not recognise Karabakh de jure, although it did recognise it de facto. The prime goal for both Serzh Sargsyan and Robert Kocharian was to defend Karabakh. They could cope with the task, but Nikol Pashinyan did not," said Vladimir Bruter.

    They were too cheap to pay for the missiles

    After this ass whooping nobody will be taking Armenian opinion on anything military related for next several decades

    Tmr Rosoboronexport will have to tell what happened.

    Armrnian clearly look like they have no idea how to manage an army but I doubt they would buy 4 sukhoi for 100 million $ and not buy some missiles...

    From the words of that general, it's not the military that fucked up but some corrupt politicians.

    Seems to me that this was a conflict between Armenians in NK and Azerbaijan... even assuming they had missiles for their Su-30s... would they risk them in this sort of conflict?

    The Su-30 is a good plane but would be totally useless against small drones, and would be vulnerable to being shot down.

    I would think a lot of MANPADS would be a good start, but not a cost effective way of dealing with the problem...

    They had soldiers... give entire units RPK-74s and train them to volley fire in bursts like they used to do in WWI against long range enemy targets.

    Spread a section of 100 soldiers along a line of trenches and get them all to load up a 45 round mag and coordinate their fire at drone targets... make sure the direction you are all shooting means the bullets land in enemy territory and you might get a few bonus kills too.

    This is BS. Armenia is a member of ODKB, so it could get all needed missiles, same as Belarus and Kazakhstan. Most probably Pashinyan didn't buy them. But even in that case Su-30SM could be useful with its radar and ECM, ELINT complexes. They could map and designate all Azeri positions and give info to ground troops. This war was one of the biggest betrayals in history. Pashinyan gave whole Artsakh to Erdogan and Aliev. I wonder, how much money he got for this.


    2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war #3 Unname10
    Pashinyan's wife Anna was all the time in bunker, where generals plan and control defense of Artsakh. She deliver all the plans of defense to Turkey.

    https://ru.armeniasputnik.am/politics/20201119/25406778/Chto-delala-zhena-Pashinyana-na-komandnom-punkte-Detali-ot-generala-Akopyana.html

    Слухи подтвердились: Анна Акопян действительно без разрешения присутствовала на командном пункте, откуда он попросил ее удалиться. После этого его вызвали в Ереван.

    ЕРЕВАН, 19 ноя — Sputnik. Бывший руководитель военно-контрольной службы Минобороны Армении генерал-полковник Мовсес Акопян прокомментировал слухи об инциденте между ним и супругой премьер-министра Армении Анной Акопян. В частности, в обществе распространились слухи о том, что она без разрешения являлась на командный пункт, где шли военные совещания. Разумеется, вход посторонних людей туда был строго воспрещен.

    Генерал увидел Анну Акопян на командном пункте: она сидела у монитора и смотрела на запись боя. Там же находился генерал-лейтенант Самвел Бабаян. При этом она не задавала вопросов и ничего не говорила. Генерал Акопян подошел к ней и сказал, что ей здесь быть не нужно.

    "Я сказал: "Не нужно, здесь мужчины разговаривают, ругаются. Она сказала "хорошо". Через четыре часа меня вызвали в Ереван к министру обороны. Я приехал с ожиданием, что вернусь в Карабах. Но министр сказал мне, что я больше не должен ехать", - рассказал он.

    По словам Акопяна, от имени Пашиняна ему запретили появляться в командном пункте Армии обороны Арцаха.

    Он показал журналистам сообщение, отправленное на номер Пашиняна. Дословно: "Прошу меня отправить в Арцах, мое сердце разрывается". Премьер даже не ответил на это сообщение.

    Однако Акопян любой ценой пытался попасть в Арцах. Ему сказали, что нужно сдать тест на Covid-19. Он пошел на обследование, вынесли диагноз – двусторонняя пневмония, что его крайне удивило, так как чувствовал он себя нормально. Прошел повторное обследование, и оказалось, у него всего 1%-ное воспаление легких, что вполне нормальный диагноз для здорового человека. В конце концов, после долгих попыток ему все же удалось "вырваться" и уехать в Карабах, где он оставался до 28 октября.

    Уже долгое время эта информация муссировалась в СМИ, а несколько дней назад об этом инциденте рассказал российский медиа-менеджер Арам Габрелянов.

    The rumors were confirmed: Anna Hakobyan was indeed present at the command post without permission, from where he asked her to leave. After that he was summoned to Yerevan.

    YEREVAN, 19 Nov - Sputnik. Former head of the military control service of the Armenian Defense Ministry, Colonel General Movses Hakobyan, commented on rumors about the incident between him and the wife of the Armenian Prime Minister Anna Hakobyan. In particular, rumors spread in the society that she had come to the command post, where military meetings were taking place, without permission. Of course, the entry of strangers there was strictly prohibited.

    The general saw Anna Hakobyan at the command post: she was sitting at the monitor and looking at the recording of the battle. Lieutenant General Samvel Babayan was also there. However, she did not ask questions and did not say anything. General Hakobyan approached her and said that she did not need to be here.

    “I said:“ No need, here men talk, swear. She said okay. Four hours later, I was summoned to Yerevan to see the Minister of Defense. I came with the expectation that I would return to Karabakh. But the minister told me that I shouldn't go anymore, "he said.

    According to Hakobyan, on behalf of Pashinyan, he was forbidden to appear at the command post of the Artsakh Defense Army.

    He showed reporters a message sent to Pashinyan's number. Literally: "Please send me to Artsakh, my heart is breaking." The prime minister did not even respond to this message.

    However, Hakobyan tried to get to Artsakh at any cost. He was told that he needed to take a test for Covid-19. He went to the examination, was diagnosed with bilateral pneumonia, which surprised him extremely, as he felt normal. He underwent a second examination, and it turned out that he had only 1% pneumonia, which is a completely normal diagnosis for a healthy person. In the end, after long attempts, he still managed to "break free" and leave for Karabakh, where he remained until October 28.

    For a long time, this information has been exaggerated in the media, and a few days ago the Russian media manager Aram Gabrelyanov spoke about this incident.

    Can't sell missiles for su-30sm? One has to be stupid to believe that. Especially since missiles like r-27 have been around for forever and been used on nearly every Russian jet including SM.

    Lol

    Tmr Rosoboronexport will have to tell what happened.

    Armrnian clearly look like they have no idea how to manage an army but I doubt they would buy 4 sukhoi for 100 million $ and not buy some missiles...

    From the words of that general, it's not the military that fucked up but some corrupt politicians.

    Rosoboronexport doesn't have to explain anything. Made up stories aren't anything to indulge in. A simple laugh, basic common sense (oxymoron) of examples of missiles sold everywhere for all types of Russian jets, and a laugh at Armenia's incompetence is really all that is needed.

    Yes they have because if they don't it will affact their image.

    Russia didn't gave iran the s-300 it bought for a long time. Western/Israeli influence is still too great on Putin to have total independancybon weapon sells.

    As whom once was involved in #Iran's defense industry can say that we in #Iran Air Force also suffered a lot from #Russia.We purchased 12 Su-24MKs & 24 MiG-29s in 1989 but they refused to deliver spare parts & even complete training of our technicians.That was #Ukraine helped us.

    No, they don't.

    Because there isn't proof but an allegation.

    Yeah, and Russia didn't send shit to Iran because of sanctions that Russia agreed to.  Maybe you forgot that. And Armenia isn't sanctioned. And Russia sent missiles to Kazakhstan and Belarus for their Su-30SM.

    So no, you nor the "source" has a leg to stand on.

    Ukraine was and is known to break laws. Always did and always will.  In 1989, it was USSR, not Russia, nor Ukraine.

    I'm impressed though that you believe random retards on twitter.  I thought most people now figured out twitter is usually full of shit.

    So the burden of proof is on them to show proof Russia refused to sell the missiles. Not Russia's export company. I am not sure you are aware how this stuff works but mob rule mentality of twitter isn't a jurisdiction unlike it may be in the United States. In the real world though, different.

    As Papadragon said, it's a "story". You can't equate Iran deal as Iran was sanctioned even by Russia lol.

    And before you say "but they could have sold them back in the 90's and early 2000's before arms embargo". No. Russia couldn't even supply themselves. Their defense organization was more or less in shambles only till recently. And they still have to work out new agreements with India on spare parts alone. It is a long work in progress

    There was no embargo on S-300 which is a defensive weapon. They just bend over israeli and choosed not deliver what was legaly bought by Iran.

    This guy talking about su-30 missiles isn't a twitter guy but head of Armenian forces.

    The "story" is then real. They didn't have any missile. Why ? Idk. Maybe he lies and they didn't have money to buy them. But then why buy 4 useless su-30 ? They had the option to buy Tor or some upgraded and cheaper mig-29. That's weired.

    Incorrect, it was Medvedev who was influenced by the US/Israeli lobbies. It was Medvedev who agreed to the fake-assed 'restart' to relations with the U.S., it was Medvedev who agreed to the sanctions, it was Medvedev that the West felt comfortable working with to launch the Georgian war, and it was Medvedev who allowed the attack on Libya which absolutely angered VVP, and VVP decided to retake the presidency in the next election because of it.

    He is making excuses for their failures. I see this all the time at work. When people fuck up badly, they don't admit their guilt.  He, and everyone in Armenia fucked up.

    There isn't an embargo on Armenia and everyone else that doesn't have an embargo on them are able to get Russian missiles.

    End of story.
