Expert: Baku blows up its armed forces might
June 18, 2011 - 13:57 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - It is irrelevant to compare Armenia's armed forces
with those of Azerbaijan, since the latter took up a habit of blowing
up the might of its army, according to expert Artsrun Hovhannisyan.
`The two states are well aware that the air forces are meant not for
fighting against one another, but for solution of the problems within
the armed forces,' the expert told a press conference dated to the
Aviation Day in Armenia.
`Therefore, Azerbaijan and Armenia develop their air forces to satisfy
their actual needs,' he said.
In this context the expert asserted that Azerbaijan's leadership
deliberately exaggerates the efficiency of its armed forces and amount
of the armament it possesses.
`Some models in the Azerbaijani flying stock are rated by experts as
excess luxury,' he said.
Hovhannisyan noted that Azerbaijan does not possess relevant
experience in using its aircrafts, especially in highlands. `An
attempt to train pilots in Turkey also failed, as the country doesn't
have jets specified for flying over highland areas,' he said.
The Aviation Day in Armenia is celebrated annually on the third Sunday of June.
