Here is a video of the 1975 parade: youtube.com/watch?v=QB6b0H0F8vkSome of the equipment on display is easily recognizable (M-60s, T-55s, Luna rockets) but some other stuff I have no idea what it is. |

It's so sad. We had such a mighty army, if there wouldn't be as much BS, as it was, then I would proudly say today that I am Yugoslavian. Yugoslavia should've been more of a union...at least thats what I think.

And FYI, the East German Army was second only to the Soviet Army in the Warsaw Pact. Together with the Group of Soviet Forces in Germany, it was tasked with breaking into West Germany and then France. The East German air force (Luftstreitkräfte) was unique among Warsaw Pact countries in that it was equipped with the most advanced Soviet fighters, instead of downgraded export models (just like the 12 YU Mig-29s). The Luftstreitkräfte was an extension of the Soviet 16th Air Army deployed in East Germany and was expected to play a front-line role in any war with NATO. |

It was 4th largest in EUROPE, even west doesn't deny it, count all with TO together. About Figthers : In 1987, the first squadron of new modern MiG-29 fighters was purchased from USSR, making Yugoslavia the first purchaser of it. They were a temporary solution until planned production of new Novi Avion multirole aircraft. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novi_AvionThis says all. |

It was 4th largest in EUROPE, even west doesn't deny it, count all with TO together. Why not include the Association of Anti-fascist Women while you`re at it. JNA was a pretty decent army, but we were fed alot of crap about it too. There was cult of Tito, but there was also a lesser cult of the army. We bought it because naturaly everyone likes to think they have a great army. The reality is that while it was certainly massivley more potent than any army of any ex-Yu country it was plagued with buerocratisation and was never into top of the line and the most modern equipment. You could be conscripted in the midd 1970s, do your 18 months and depending in which unit you served you may not have ever even held a Kalašnikov - a rifle that was already 25 years old at the time. Instead you would have dragged around an old Mauser. |

Instead you would have dragged around an old Mauser. Nonsense. Before 1970's Yugo army used lots of different weapons including mainly Ak-47 but still didn't adopt the rifle as the standard infantry armament. After 70's Yugo adopted the Zastava M70 model and heavy M84 model for its army, and mainly all forces were equipped by it. About size of the army, JNA had 180,000 soldiers active soldier and over 1,000,000 reserve forces, not to mention the whole armament the army had in those times. About including anti fascist women, well if I know in war, every soldier counts, and EVEN TO would, since they were some kind of reservists, they were taught military doctrines and even around 900k were included in military trainings, so how doesn't this count? YUGO army in the war of late 90s has nothing to do with the JNA before, since all correspondent countries were NOT included in it. |
