mikiea Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Why does Thailand need any military at all? It's not as though any of its neighbors have been threatening an invasion in the last 150 years. The military is apparently needed to stage coups, as historically they have done little in the way of fighting. ( well except against civilians ...) . No one has ever used the term battle hardened and Thai military in the same sentence. It is all a bit moot however, as Thailand signed the Treaty of Amity in the 50s whereas if Thailand is attacked, America will come in and defend them. So instead of wasting billions of baht on useless submarines how about helping out some poor farmers ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikiea Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 the chinese have these plans for a new type of sub, one with wheels on the bottom. it would glide thru the water as all subs do, but it can also move along the ocean bottom in a stealth mode. this would ideal for following the "new" slave trade or rolling right up on shore and putting the fear of god in the protesters in the next coup . something the sub board should look into :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
German Viking Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Why does Thailand need any military at all? It's not as though any of its neighbors have been threatening an invasion in the last 150 years. Thailand had a lot small problems with Cambodia, Lao Myanmar in the past. You see what happens with countries with weak military in Libya, Iraq, Ukraine and you see what does not happen in countries with strong military in North Korea and Iran. Not judging who is right and who is wrong just how a strong military keeps peace. Simplistic thinking. The strong US military certainly hasn't kept the peace, but kept us constantly at war (Vietnam, Panama, Grenada, Iraq, Afghanistan) that profits only the arms industry. With N. Korea and Iran only nukes count for giving the Americans pause. Subs are not nukes. Do you know why the USA since WW II, running from War to War, just to keeping their Weapon industry running, which is mainly owned by the same PPL, who control over 90% of all western banks and politicians, they own Reuters and USA politics for over 100 years and the FED since ever. Look at the backside of the 1 $ and you will see who are these bastards they like to create a new NWO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamnutsak Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) Since the Manhattan Rebellion, a failed (counter-) coup in 1951 staged by members of the Royal Thai Navy (I think some might even have been sub-mariners), the RTN has been on the outs. This also could be one reason, along with the lack of a mission and shallow waters in the Gulf of Thailand, why the King has voiced negative opinions about the need for submarines. I seriously doubt they'll ever get any subs. Edited June 30, 2015 by bamnutsak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai at Heart Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 This is called calling in the rewards for supporting the coup. And also a lucrative way to prevent a possible counter coup.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigeone Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 If and when they get these submarines just think of all the amusement it will bring to TV...we all know it's not going to end well and I predict a major issue with the subs in the first 9 months...hope it won't involve loss of life but I wouldn't be surprised..Submarines are complicated bits of kit and training and maintenance of said vessels is not easy..a accident waiting to happen..

jcisco Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Do they want these subs for deterrence and as a counter force to enemy shipping or as missile platforms. Does Thailand have a developed surface navy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
