In 1977, during the war with communist terrorists. The Royal Thai Air Force came up with the idea to increase the attack potential of the Uh-1H, so there were several trials. Including the installation of 20 lb bombs, the installation of the M3 machine gun to replace the M60D machine gun and the experimental installation of 4 Mk 81 250 lb bombs used in the battle in the north. Low bombing accuracy, as well as slow and noisy helicopters. therefore being easily attack by communist terrorists.

I also had an idea to turn it into a suggestion on this subject. but must let the owner of the post consider it again.

The concept is really good. may be in the tech tree or may be in premium

Bro, you don’t need me to consider or approve anything! This is a discussion topic, everything is an idea and suggestion!

Also, your works and suggested Tech trees are quite beautiful and well made. In my opinion, if they were to be implemented soon, I would begin grinding up my Japanese tech tree just to play them. (I also love the detail and history of each vehicle you presented, they are quite educational, and I’ve learnt quite a lot from them)

(Bonus, here’s a video of Royal Thai Army Type-95 Ha-Go Tank)

Thanks for the compliment, so I’ll put this up on suggestion soon. If there is any advice, you can tell me right away.

For Rank 8…

Let’s guess the picture. What is it? 😆😆😆

Is it Type 76 SPAAG, its gun is quite unmistakable.

But if they are going to add this, does it mean that Gaijin also have to model Thai/Siamese crews too? Or will they use Japanese crews’ models. 😆

The answer is!!

Type 80 Anti Aircraft Machine Gun ( Vickers .5" Class D ) Imported into service in 1937 from England, initial number 24, entered service to replace the Type 77 Heavy Machine Gun (Vicker Machine Gun) in the 3rd company of 1st anti-aircraft battalion and 2st anti-aircraft battalion and lead Vicker Machine Gun move to Heavy machine gun Platoon in 1st company and 2st company of 1st anti-aircraft battalion and 2st anti-aircraft battalion. After World War II it was mounted on the M3 Half Track and was used until around 1967, with the M42 Duster and M55 Quadmount being replaced.

I don’t mind using a Japanese crew. But if getting a Thai tank crew like in the picture or thai crew wearing the Adrian M31 helmet would be good, not less. 😆😆

Today we are going to look at the differences between the Army and Police T17E1 Staghound. What differences do you see? Let’s start.

One has a Breda and the other has a Madsen?

As for the difference between an Army Staghound and a Police Staghound, of course the right one is “Weapons”.

Royal Thai Army : Mounted a 20 mm AA Machine Cannon M/38 gun.

Royal Thai Police : Mounted a 20 mm Type 97 automatic cannon gun.

If I may, this TT option is missing one of the most important systems Thailand operates. If Japan is ever to get a Thai subtree in any form, it ought to have their RBS 70 launch platform, to give Japan some kind of SAM.

Normally, the RBS-70 of the Royal Thai Air Force is a ground-based version, by taking the RBS-70 up and down on the vehicle. hypothetical that the firing point to the ground cannot be fired therefore use the roof of the car It’s a place to shoot instead.

For SAM type weapons, I would recommend other vehicle mount models such as the Startreak on Type 51 utility vehicle and Igla-S on Thairung TR Transformer 4x4.

An actual solution that is NOT the Korean tree

Actually, i have already tried to explain why Thailand would make more sense then South Korea but some players/people are to stubborn unfortunately.

Japan could also receive Indonesia and Malaysia as it exported/donated arms to them but that of course depends if other are okay with it.

That’s correct.!!

This is one of three ships of the Royal Thai Marine Police Division’s 180 ft patrol boat, which consists of

  • Patrol Boat No. 1802 Dumrong Rajanubhab

  • Patrol Boat No. 1803 Lopburi Ramesuan

  • Patrol Boat No. 1804 Srinagarindra (Use the same model as the HTMS Long Lom.)

These ships were armed with 76/50 guns and two 20 mm Oerlikon guns. (For Srinakarin , mount dual 30mm GCM-AO3-2 and two 20 mm Oerlikon guns.)

Friendly Reminder:
HTMS Chakri Naruebet, aircraft carrier and a flagship of Royal Thai Navy, is smaller in both size and length than IJN Haruna, the rank V Japanese Battleship.
