스위스군와 오스트리아군 보유장비

스위스군와 오스트리아군 보유장비 비교


Quantity facilitates combat effectiveness Here again times a small Sidestep to our western neighbour, Switzerland. Which can offer this at combat aircraft:
16 "Mirage"IIIRS
73 F-5E "Tiger"II
12 F-5F "Tiger"II
26 F/A-18C "Hornet"
7 F/A-18D "Hornet" --- 134 Thus
134 (abzgl. 12 at Austria leased) combat aircraft Switzerland can call its own, and against 18 Eurofighters that is more than over powerful.
The example leaves itself i.e. in addition, far spiders, on the armoured vehicles:

Switzerland: Battle tank:
186 Pz68/88
370 Pz-87 ("Leopard"2)

Reconnaissance tank:
321 clearing-up vehicles 93, 93/97

Armored infantry vehicle:
120 M-63/73 (M-113 with 20 mm MK)
315 M-63/89 (M-113 with 20 mm MK)
186 armored infantry vehicles 2000 (in procurement) (CV-9030)
(M-63/89 will replace starting from 2003 with PzBrig)

Personnel transportation tank:
242 SPz 93,
56 KdoPz 93 ("Piranha") (12.7 mm uesMG)

Self-propelled gun carriage:
234 PzHb 66/74, -74, -79, -88 (M-109U)
324 PzHb 79/95 and PzHb 88/95 L42 (M-109 KAWEST)

Austria:
Battle tank: 114 "Leopard"2A4

Tank destroyer: 152 "Kuerassier" (+133 "Kuerassier" mothballed)

Armored infantry vehicle:
112 "Ulan" in procurement, of it approx.. 15 already delivered [conditions at the beginning of of 2003 ]

Personnel transportation tank:
465 "Saurer"4K4E/F
68 "Pandur" (of it the majority in international mission)

Thus also here the Austrian federal army can point out only a fraction Swiss potentials. Briefly said, in Switzerland one could not place nearly 3 tanks into each valley and it an aggressor would come through.
