This thread is for all topics discussing the Vietnamese Army.
I'll start us off with a couple of interesting vehicles. Here's a D-44 cannon in the back of an Ural truck serving as an SP Howitzer, though a very light one (85mm). While it's clearly inferior to any modern system of the type, it can still do some damage. It's also part of a trend continuing to find creative ways to use old equipment.

And here we have a strange BMP-1 upgrade. I have a poor opinion of this set up because the Grom cannon it retains is badly outdated. Replacing it with an autocannon would be far wiser. This strongly suggests that the BMP-1 will remain in service for some time to come.
The Vietnamese military remains a very interesting organization.
