or any military related picture would be fine..

Yah, I've been searching for those modern Vietnamese soldiers for a long time, but never see any.

By the way, I like your signature, that is Hưng Đạo Đại Vương Trần Quốc Tuấn, right?

same here, all i get is US special force in vietnam...


yap he is..

drunkenmonkey and daiviet,

From what i know, the current government of Vietnam do not reveal anything about their military forces. I've been to Vietnamese-based websites and the people told me that the citizens of Vietnam are not allowed to reveal anything about Vietnamese military force.

btw, I find it very disturbing that Ngo Thoi Sy said that Hung Dao Vuong was ethnically Chinese and so did the nobles of the Tran dynasty.

Yah the current communist regime is pretty secretive about their military...


Well viet is a mixed race so it not suprise that we're mixed with the Chin, Shu and Chu when those people got defeated and went to our country.

Yah, the U.S. is full of people from different ethnic backgrounds, and they all love the U.S. and its people, they would do anything to protect it, so they are considered as Americans.

Same as Vietnam, Chinese that lived in Vietnam for 3 or more generations will become Vietnamized and they will think themselves as Vietnamese. Ly Bon, a Vietnamese hero who ousted the Chinese and set up the first Ly Dynasty that lasted less then a century was Chinese-related. His family moved to Vietnam hundreds of years ago to avoid China's warring states.

Sino-Vietnam war pics.

















Modern Vietnamese military pics.

Nice work Byron!

where did you find all this?

at www.china-defense.com forums. It's a site dedicated to the Chinese military and in the forums they posted pics of the Vietnamese military.

One word: COOL!

Another two words: GREAT WORK!

Damn those female Vietnamese soldiers in the sino-vietnam war and the modern female soldier in Vietnam pics I just posted are hot. They are so beautiful yet deadly.

Wow. yes, interesting pics.

True, so true. There are no girls as beautiful as Vietnamese.

I love you Vietnam. And U.S., too.

I found a webpage about the vietnamese special forces. One of the names I know of vietnamese special forces are called the `Dac Cong' .

Hmmmm... no offense to the old North and South government. But I would really want to see some modern Vietnamese troops. Especially the ones who dress in their service dress and carry a riffle and stand at attention. That image will never fade away in my mind.

This Su-27 is Russian.

Anyways, are there statistics on the Vietnam Military such as equipment and inventory?

The Vietnamese government is very secretive.

Retraction: I believe there was some article that after the withdrawel there were still a few Vietnamese soldiers left there.

I don't think they would release reports of their stats since they are very secretive and don't want anyone knowing how large their military is.

Yeah Vietnam is a close ally of Russia and lots of Vietnamese weapons are purchased from Russia.

Vietnam also uses that fighter. China uses it too. They bought it from Russia. Just like the F-16s, the Israels didn't make that fighter, they bought it from the U.S.

I know. In China the Su-27 is called the Jian-11 or Su-27SK. China also uses the Su-30MKK that was purchased from Russia but also retains its own domestic fighters.

I didn't mean where it was made. I meant the plane's insignia is that of the Russian Air Force and not Vietnam.

I guess they didn't bother to change it.

"The Su-27 is in service not only in Russia and other CIS countries but also in China and Vietnam"

I can tell that when the Sino-Vietnam War was fought, people like herosword were praying that the Chinese would kill every single Vietnamese soldier.

I never knew that Vietnam flew Su-27's. Excellent craft. On par with the American F-15.

Their armour seems a bit outdated however, exposed track, high profile, rounded or either blocky turrets. As with their battle dress. Im not too familiar with Vietnamese combat kit but their helmets seem to be the old solid steel type instead of the reActive stuff that most modern nations use.

But anyways... That modern Vietnamese female soldier is fuked up hot. I'll tresspass into Vietnamese territory only if she'll 'apprehend', 'detain' and 'interrogate' me personally.

Great thread.

Feel free to post more pics of modern vietnamese female soldier in vietnam.

Where do I sign up ?

That's one of the prettiest soldiers I have ever seen. Rock on Viet!

Now drop down and give me 40.

those pics look tight

Hey thanks for the website. I know a lot of people who are interest in this and will direct them to it.

Beautiful! This is the website I've been trying to look for. Now I'm going to spend all my time looking at it instead of writing my papers, ah well.

Wow, I never knew that South Vietnam had a special force at all. Those generals in the website looked pretty young for a general. In the U.S., you gotta be in the serive at least 15 years to get to the rank of a Colonel. So a general would have to spend some years, may be 20 plus years. But those guys looked really young.

And arggh... I can't stop looking at that chick on top of the page.

From reading the stuff on that website, it seems very moderate. It's about some old soldiers reminiscing about the past and hoping for a better future. They talk about the new battlefield that involved the younger Vietnamese generation and making sure they retain their tradition. The site has got a good message.
