Ora l'acquisto di 15 (quindici!) elicotteri mi sembra militarmente infinitesimo rispetto una flotta di 6 fregate missilistiche. Sia come costo, sia come potenza di fuoco sia come raggio d'azione del sistema d'arma.

A me pare che di dettagli te ne sei persi non pochi, se mi vieni a parlare di 15 elicotteri.

Hugo Chavez: MiGs, SAMs and 900,000 more assault rifles

The Bolivarian revolution’s military weapons buying spree will continue in 2006. On Feb. 4, President Chavez announced plans to acquire Russian MiGs, air defense missile systems (SAMs), and enough assault rifles to arm an all-volunteer national military reserve that already has over 1 million members. Chavez also plans this year to place orders for more attack and multi-role helicopters, and up to three diesel-electric submarines either from Russia, Spain, or Germany. Chavez is also shopping for two heavy coast guard and coastal patrol ships (in addition to the eight small vessels ordered last year from Spain’s Navantia), 30 hovercraft naval transports, and up to 100 high-speed patrol boats that can be equipped with heavy machine guns and man-portable SAMs.
