<h3>How good is the combined strength of the Armenian Military?</h3>
Would they be able to withstand a Turkish invasion, or Turkish bombing campaigns? Why did the Turks not invade during the Karabakh War? And does Armenia produce its own weapons
<strong>Armenia best answer:</strong>
<p><i>Answer by aramiskenderian</i><br/>While the Turks could enter the war to side with their other partners Azerbaijan, but they need to carefully think (assuming Turkish governments can think) before doing something that stupid.
Turkish governments spent the last 100 years trying to convince the rest of the world that they are peaceful and always misunderstood, they would never attack, .blah blah blah. Doing so will prove the exact opposite of their claims. The world still feels the sting of Armenian, Assyrian, and the Pontic Greek Genocides all perpetrated and committed by the Turks, the Dersim massacres, the persecution of the Kurds, the hostility towards Iraq, ..etc. Doing so will be the final nail in their Genocide denials and fake peaceful nation claims.
Yes they are bigger and stronger, but that does not guarantee a win. Remember what bunch of guerrilla units and villagers did to the big bad Ottoman Turk army in Sardarabad? They handed them an embarrassing defeat. These people didn't learn from history. Azerbaijan's army was much bigger, more equipped and outgunned the Armenian army in the previous war, what happened?
They suffered a humiliating defeat which they can't get over to this day.
I am not saying the Armenian army is the best in the world, but it is one of the most efficient in the region. Armenia prefers diplomacy over war and military action. Azerbaijan's military budget is easily triple the amount of the Armenian military budget, the Turkish military budget is easily 5 times bigger than the Armenian budget, that means almost nothing when it comes to determination and cause for fighting.
Armenia has the technology, but it is not perfect either. They showed drones made in Armenia for example, that tells me they are not sleeping.</p>
