In identifying that Ch'ŏnma-ho I (Ga) tank, it occurred to me I provided an incorrect variant designation for T-72 on the following posts:
- Iran Military Day 2014 - Tehran (expanded coverage)
- Iran Military Day 2014 - Provinces
The post entries have been corrected.
Why do these Islamic thugs always name their 3rd-rate, North Korean-knockoff military hardware and exercises with Arabic names (e.g. "Sijjil") and cities outside of Iran (e.g. Jerusalem, Karbala, etc)?
go and see what Israeli expert thinks about Iran vs. North Korea. According to them Iran is now more advanced and technology is transferred from Iran to NK.

Why? Because it is a Tazi regime occupying Iran.
More advanced then the relic outdated North Korea?. lol Is that something to be proud of?.
8:43 PM be proud or not but I just contradict the BS that some people iterate (that NK provides Iran with technology)
A RESOLVE of a people who are more than ready to defend their ideals and honor !!.If JANE'S and other defense sources were honest i think they would rank Iran somewhere at position 6 or seven in the global military ranking !!.
US , Russia , China, France , Germany, UK (Iran) Is that what you mean? On what do you base that assumption? Any hard facts or figures? Quantity or quality of the military hardwear?

Yeah,iran would be much better off copying saudi and the gulf states by squandering tens of billions on weapons it doesnt need and cant use,and last time I looked it was the north koreans copying iranian triconic warhead designs for their missiles
The regime see the Iranian people as the main enemy.
Tehran's suburbs is as "toward Jerusalem" as these jokers and jackers are gonna get.
they should stick to what they are good for..... shooting unarmed girls and running over people protesting
