Thanks for posting these pictures, you guys out East definitely make some rugged military equipment! If cost, distance, and parts availablity weren't a limiting factor I'd be tempted to purchase and restore a surplus Ural truck.

What do you mean?

I believe he means this:

A lot of us here in the states are older and served in the US military during the years of the Cold War, and spent most of their time training with our weapons to use AGAINST Soviet-made vehicles and other objects, since it was thought to be inevitable that our forces would either fight the Soviet Union in WW3, or we'd be fighting another 3rd world nation that was armed with Soviet-era weapons. He didn't mean anything against you or Russia. He was speaking in jest that he had all this training with the TOW anti-armor weapon against potential Soviet vehicles, that it's hard to not look at them and think "wow, I wish I had my old TOW right now."

Just my two cents about the conversation. I like the vehicles, Russia always made some good stuff. A little weird sometimes, but they were rugged.

Unfortunately weapons of our countries are constantly engaged in battles and rivalry (((.
Your tanks and Israeli Merkava Abrams against the Russian RPG 32 or F-35s against our T-50 ...
I do not want to go into politics is a dirty business .. I am for peace))))

Marine Corps (Sakhalin)
So many warships off the coast of Sakhalin Island in the last time you saw or a dozen years ago. In the Bay Bay became a whole group of forces of the Pacific Fleet. Large and small anti-submarine ships, minesweepers, destroyers - they are all gathered here today to cover the landing of Marines...

To the aid mariners are of armored personnel carriers, self-propelled artillery. From the air, landing fire support work helicopter and gunships attack aircraft. According to legend - on this coast of Sakhalin large entrenched gangs. Destroy that - the main purpose of amphibious assault.
