[edit] FYROM/Macedonia Naming War of Doom

Could everybody cut it out already? Image links are tied to image names, which have been named and uploaded as they have been named and uploaded. Calling an image "Army of the Republic of Macedonia" is just as fine as calling it "Army of the FYROM". Why? Simply because two thirds of the world use the former, the rest uses the latter. I do not have any care for the entire Greeko-Macedonian dispute over names and whatnot, I just would like to see images (flags, graphs, etc) instead of red links. Thank you very, very, very much.

Those fucker's army is PATHETIC! We're doing them a favour for not blasting them back to the stone age (to give them a chance to re-write official ancient history as they use to do).

[edit] Graphic of the Army Structure

I'm currently working on a project to create graphics of the structure of the most important Armies. i.e. France. I want to make also a graphic of the structure of the Land Forces of the Military of the Republic of Macedonia, but the information at this point is not sufficient, as there is no information what units compose the single divisions, brigades and Regiments. Does anyone have this information- down to the Battalion and Company levels? Thanks noclador

I wish you would leave the text for the OOB in the body of the articles after you create your charts. Some people may want to use the data and charts can't be converted to text. --Mrg3105 (talk) 07:33, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

I created the graphic today and all units are there with the exception of the units of the two active Brigades! If anyone has information regarding the 1st and 2nd Brigade- please let me know. so that I can update and finish the graphic. Also I do not know were the Land Force, Rapid Reaction and Strategic Forces Commands are located! thanks, --noclador 11:44, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

The two active brigades are in fact Mechanised Infantry, according to this graph. I dug around the site and I fell on the Joint Command page which has some units listed, including the two brigades. The 1st Mechanised Infantry Brigade's site has a nice gallery, but little practical information. The 2nd Mechanised Brigade's site, however, has lots of inormation, including a whole graph. Here it is, all translated. Enjoy! Russoswiss 17:52, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

I hate the Macedonian Army site. You can add it to the hit parade of the worst army sites ever. Not only is the Macedonian language graphic of extremely bad quality, but I also can't figure out whether it is different from the english one or not, since they are constructed in different styles. Grrrrr. I'll get back to this talk page once I figured it all out. Russoswiss 18:03, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

thanks for pointing out the link; I already updated the graphic with the units of the 2nd Mechanized Brigade :-) --noclador 20:15, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

I can't believe it! The 1st Mech. Inf. Brigade also has all the Mission/Structure/Etc pages, it's just that they aren't linked to the Brigade's front page! I fiddled with the URLs after a logical conclusion, seeing if it would work, and it did work! Anyway. According to the graphics, the 1st Brigade is exactly the same as the 2nd brigade. And yes, even the Macedonian army icons are messed up, it seems. And if you feel like it, here be the translated orbat for the 3rd Priority Reserve Brigade. But that's it, the trick didn't work for the 4th Brigade. Enjoy! Russoswiss 23:57, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] M-84 in Macedonia?

There are no M-84 MBTs in Macedonia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 91.150.123.162 (talk) 19:01, August 22, 2007 (UTC)

Yes, Macedonian army never had M-84 MBT's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.150.103.195 (talk) 17:49, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] retired weapons

The 2 UH-1 helis and 10 Leonidas APC dont serve any more. the UH-1 sold to Bosna and the Leonidas to Bulgaria. remove them. John Athens Greece 15/11/2007.

We actually gifted them half of their Air "Force"... MUHAHAHA!!!

[edit] Roundel

The Roundel of the Macedonian Air Force is a triangle, so its a case of triangle peg not fitting the round hole :)--Mrg3105 (talk) 07:34, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Their Air Force IS A HOLE! MUHAHA! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.118.191.48 (talk) 00:17, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
