South Sudan Summer Vacation
Are you the same guy who burst on this forum boasting about owning 2 furniture stores in Glasgow? And then concocting a raft of wild and inprobable stories of cobras flying at you and other idiot tales . -

Non-O Marriage Visa Run
Thanks all. Does anybody know if any of the consulates are likely to be busy? I did a run at Vientiane once and nearly missed my return flight due to the huge queue to pick up my visa the next day. -

Military Royal Thai Air Force Unveils Locally-Made Kamikaze Drone
Is this actually serious? This is nothing new. Last November, the RTAF announced this and was trying to sell it at the. trade show in Bangkok :Kamikaze bomber KB-10G and KB-5E developed by NKRTAFA - The Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) has launched the KB (Kamikaze Bomber) family of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) developed in Thailand for the first time at the Dronetech Asia 2024 unmanned aerial vehicle exhibition at Challenger Hall 12, Impact Muang Thong Thani, Bangkok, Thailand, from 25-27 November 2024. KB family of suicide drones developed by Navaminda Kasatriyadhiraj Royal Thai Air Force Academy (NKRTAFA), Research and Development Center for Space and Aeronautical Science and Technology, and the Directorate of Armament. Describing this drone, which is classified as a loitering delivery system as"engineered to deliver high-impact explosive payloads with pinpoint accuracy (and offering that) the drone has demonstrated an impressive targeting deviation of less than five metres during field trials." is questionable. In the world of loitering air munitions, 5 meters is not accurate. Nor is the Thai payload of 5-10Kg significant. The KB-5E suicide drone is equipped with a 5kg warhead, has a destruction radius of 280m, an orbital flight speed of 90km/h, a dive speed of 180km/h, and a range of 150km. A larger version of the KB-10G suicide drone uses a gasoline piston engine and is launched via a rail launcher or rocket launcher. KB-10G has a system weight of 40kg, a wingspan of 1.7m, equipped with a 10kg warhead, a destruction radius of 350m, a flight speed of 120km/h, and a dive speed of 220km/h, and a range of 500km. In contrast Israeli UAV loiter models offer an accuracy of within 1 meter, and options that can carry payloads of 16-40kg. It has a maximum speed of 425 km/h and range of 1000km, with an inflight minimum endurance of 9+ hours. Azerbaijan, Morocco, Estonia, and the Netherlands as well as other countries went with the Israeli models. The Thai drones look like knockoffs of the Israeli drones previously sold to Thailand. Why good? Israel, and NATO militaries attach legal officers to drone units to supervise targets to minimize non combatant collateral damage/injury. Do you think Thailand does that? The vetting becomes even more necessary when the detonation target area is large like the Thai UAV's. How do you know that the UAV was designed in Thailand and is not actually a copy of someone else's UAV model? Yes, Thailand will produce some UAVs, but have you done a cost comparison to foreign sourced models? If the Thai versions are slow and easily stopped, or if they are inaccurate, what benefit will it bring? If the intent is to drop payloads willy nilly without much concern for actual accuracy or collateral damage, then yes this option might be more cost effective if used for purposes such as bombing Cambodian villages. -

So if it wasn’t greed or idiocy to put a kids camp in an area known to flood then what was it? If the Thais had done similar they would be accused of idiocy. So why not you guys?- 1
