  1. After they decided not to Upgrade Into Paladin version. I heard that Saudi is buying 177 M109A6+ Paladin. Which it the first Export Operator of A6s. Good Thing army just Refurbished only. But if army could buy Another 30 M109A7+ can be Stationed in East Malaysia.

  2. Additional question.
    I know this is a foolish question.
    Are we buying refurbished stuff from the US to Make America Great Again?

    No lah every one else is doing it also. We are not like the Saudis who are MAGA all the time

  3. Ahmad Zaki,

    We benefit more than the Yanks with this deal. A mere 29 vehicles isn’t a big deal. If we had cancelled the deal, they wouldn’t have lost any sleep over it. Sure, on top of the Little Bird buy, they’re hoping the M109 deal will eventually lead to other contracts but thus remains to be seen.

    The problem now is if we buy another gun. Then the army will be in the silly position of having to stock parts for 3 different guns and to train people to operate 3 different guns. Of course this won’t stop Nexter and ADS from trying to convince the army that it needs Caesar.
