The army has plans for a new battalion to be equipped with multi-barrel rocket launchers (MBRLs), attached to the existing Lop Buri-based Artillery Division, an army source said.
Under the plan, a large number of MBRLs will be bought from the Defence Technology Institute (DTI), an organisation under the Defence Ministry.
DTI, in collaboration with the army of China, has produced a prototype DTI-1 MBRL, using technology transferred from China.
On Monday, Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwon and army chief Prayuth Chan-ocha visited the Artillery Division in Lop Buri where they took receipt of the first of the MBRLs developed by DTI.
MBRL systems are in wide use with the Cambodian military, which has large numbers of them.
The source said the plan ned new battalion has the support of the prime minister, who sees it as a way of boosting the army's capability.
At the hand-over ceremony, Gen Prayuth said it has been the army's wish since 1988 to have a rocket company. At present, the defence minister has approved in principle the development of MBRLs and the newly developed weapon has been tested.
Lt-Gen Thitinan Tunyasiri, the DTI director, said the MBRL prototype is very important as its technology can be use to develop a guided missile system to respond to demands from various army units.
In the near future, the DTI will proceed with other projects to build unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), signal jammers, combat auxiliary systems, and amphibious assault vehicles (AAV), to reduce reliance on imports from abroad, he said.

use A10, in 1 minute wipe out all T's and BM.
SS-N-21 from Russia with love. Cambodian's military should consider buy that SS-N-21 . It can amis any where in Thailand with pin point accuracy. Or Cambodian should build them.
I would recommomend S-300V air defence missile again Thai military air crafts.
China should not sale any weapon to Thailand that could against Cambodia. China has alots of investment in Cambodia therefore should protect Chinese investment or interest. China must not make the same mistake during KR by provided Pol Pot only the out of date weapon that could not against Viet invasion. This time China must provide her long time friend Cambodia with the advance technology weapon to protect herself against Thailand.

Cambodia must consider buy more weapons from Russia, not China? I like Russia's weapons better than Chinese made...
Abullshit Vejajiva using Yellow Shirt people to stir up this conflict again...He want to stay longer in the office by using Yellow Shirts people to help him oUt!! I think cambodia must used cluster bombs again Thailand if they don't stop bitching about 4.6km of lands...
If there must be a war with Thailand, I hope thailand should be smart enough to focus on getting vietcong.
If not, sooner, vietcong gonna get them. Cause vietcong is behind HunXen.

Dream on, US won't sell A10 to no one!
So Khmer fight with Siam, the Chinese make money!!!!
Let you greedy chinese fight and the American make money!
Khmer and siam should use UN and let have peace in Asean!
The soldiers look dumb! like a monkey look at new thing!
A10's already in the US airbase in Otapao, Thailand. even B52s with load of Tomohawk missiles, J-DAM and Cluster Bombs. Hun Sen's Monkey Armies will be wiped out in one minute if war breaks out between Thailand and Hunland.
they are note people, they are just a tools was used by politiciant. they believed everythings form their leader preaching. men when they was hypnotized they became a beast they will risk their life match to war , to kille other and to destruct everythings that go agaist their will.
Thai are not a civilized people at all, we Khmer used to be like that durring pol pot strugle for power, we believed in pol pot sodier who picked chilys and left money on that chily branch. eventhough Pol pot rocket droped everyday near airpot, but we stile jiont hundred of demonstration in Phnom Phen against Gen.Lonol. do not repeated past experience. Mike
Khmer's history always repeated by itself. Example Sihanouk married viet woman like Monique and Hun Sen Asked Viet to invaded Khmer for Power, now in the tube Yuvaneath went met Yuon in Richmond, VA. for recognition of new power play in cambodia.
Look like we are going to have the third Indochina war after all!ahah
Thailand is doing this and Thailand is doing that as if the world revolve around Thailand!
Hey...nobody benefit from war except the World Super Powers and they can create and stop the fucken war anytime! If they stop selling their spare parts and their war machines and how the fuck third world countries like Thailand and Cambodia can go to war? ahahhahah
If Thailand want to prove that they are one tough Bangcock bitch and let them build their army and buy more weapons because soon it will be outdated! What Cambodia need to do is to be still because military is not the only option to fight war! Again Cambodia needs to invest heavily in more advance missile system such as cluster bomb with long range and short range even have the capability to build one themselves and even that is still a silly thing to do and how about invest in mutual destruction such as getting the A-bomb!
The war can be fought by diplomacy, economic, and military!
Cambodia is not the type of war fought by diplomacy, economically but, truly military!
Because Cambodia never has diplomacy and economically to be fought since the fallen of angkor era.
would the sodiers act like that in real war?
Comeon, Hun Maneth, improve the thugs!
AH Kwack in training is not to only shoot! But to see how fast you can start the fire.
How you react underpressor! Let ask your son stupid if he realy get his own diploma!
Thai abused, raped and killed alot of vietnamese refugees in 1979, while escape by boat to Thailand, i think vietcong taken a revenge on Thailand this time, vietarmy are all over within new khmer rouge uniforms...Thailand in trouble NOW! F-16,A10, C130 can't do shit to vietcong army....We kick US ass OUt!!!! By the way we will make our Deepfrying pot from your F-16...
Uncle HO,
Thailand think they can beat Vietnamese army with their airpower, they must be crazy! How many US plane were shot down by rusty AK-47 during vietnam war...? Thailand can't even fight with poor khmer soldier along the border, khmer soldier killed alot of Thai black ass, Thai military, red Helmet head, blue Helmet head, you name it?
When ever war broke out we must stand behind our soldiers, this is the way Cambodian should do, no matter Viet or Siam they all the same, Siam took our land much more than the Viet. We suffered enough under Viet if the war broke out our country will be divided half to Viet and halt to Thais because both of them from Yunan China they all way agree with each other like 1997 they signed treaty with each other to take our sea
To all stupid yoke Cam-Bone dian the slave nation of France, the labor and servant who had never free from oppression. Mr.Hun Sen the tricky person who corrupt considerable money from Cam-Bone dian people for morthan 32 years, also manu General of Cam-Bone dian army those had taken out thousand billion of Cam-bone-dia nation to set up very big castel in USA and Europe. Please open your eyes and kick all leader and big dog Hun Sen out of Cam-bone-Dia and suddenly release heavy yoke on their shoulder to meet freedom immediatly. All Thais and Combodian people always living together like brotherhood for more than thousand year why so stupid lied yourself under foot of Hun Sen, expel him out and bring back your money.
