    Weasel for the Tibetan Plateau

    I am not disagreeing with what you are saying here. Yes, PLA can escalate with fighters and missile forces. The question is, will India sit back if that happens? The answer is no. India will also escalate. If the theatre is the Tibetan Plateau, Chinese attack helicopters will be as saddled as...

    Weasel for the Tibetan Plateau

    It would be easy to lift hundreds of weasel carrying gliders and release them from close to the front, and then these gliders can land inside enemy territory. For air-dropping heavy armour, the aircraft has to go inside enemy territory, and a fewer number of IFV can be deployed in a short time...

    If the weight of each weasel can be kept under 4 metric tons, the additional armament would take it up to 5 metric tons, and would be seli-portable by Mil-17 helicopters. To gain additional altitude, to get to those heights, these helicopters could be equipped with jet-packs, so that the...

    I have been working on some rudimentary models since May, 2013. These are, by far, worse than the excellent models by @Dejawolf. These are presented here in four variants and are merely schematic in intent and purpose. All four variants based upon the same chassis or hull. With remote...

    Weasel for the Tibetan Plateau

    Weasel for the Tibetan Plateau This is a multimedia-cum-discussion thread, that focuses on a military scenario, with the specific possibility of utility and quick-deployability of weasels, or small tracked vehicles, for warfare on the Tibetan Plateau. This thread would typically come under the...
