Speaking of Vietnam, its combat effectiveness is not bad, but it seems that it has not changed much over the years. At present, the main equipment is still mainly Russian. Air Force Su-30, Navy Cheetah class, Kilo class submarine, Army M -17 helicopter and T-90 tank. However, in recent years, Vietnam's economy has begun to improve, and its GDP has grown rapidly, reaching more than US$200 billion. With a military budget of US$6 billion, Vietnam can buy some new weapons. Most of Vietnam's domestically produced weapons are transformations of old weapons. This is mainly because the degree of industrialization is not high, and domestic production is still a castle in the sky. But now they have domestically produced rifles, which are known as advanced in the world and can replace Chinese weapons!
Vietnam's Z-111 factory
Vietnam's Z-111 factory is directly under the National Defense Industry Administration. The factory was established during the Vietnam War and is mainly responsible for the development of various high-tech weapons and equipment. The overall technical strength and equipment are at the advanced level in Southeast Asia. The factory mainly produces light machine guns, submachine guns, carbines, pistols, etc. Vietnam claims that its manufacturing technology is the leader in the world today and can well meet the needs of the army for a large amount of equipment. The Z-111 factory successfully imitated the Galil rifle technology transferred from Israel and provided heavy equipment for special forces such as border troops and commandos. This assault rifle is called STV-215/380 and has some AK rifle styles to adapt to Vietnam's complex geographic environment and soldiers' living habits.

Because the design of the STV-215/380 submachine gun is very user-friendly, Vietnamese soldiers quickly adapted to this new gun, while reducing costs, making it suitable for mass production. Now, the Vietnamese army can produce multiple rifles that meet the needs of modern warfare every year, which is regarded as a revolution in the Vietnamese military. It is worth looking forward to, the STV-215/380 assault rifle will become the successor of the AK series, greatly improving the combat effectiveness of Vietnamese soldiers. In addition, the TV-410 submachine gun produced by the Z-111 factory has better performance than the STV-215/380, and is expected to become the standard of the Vietnamese special forces.

Vietnam claims that TV-410 is one of the top light weapons products in the world. Its design is similar to the Russian AK-12/15. The butt is folded to the right. The gun adopts the standard 7.62x39. Millimeter bullets, Picatinny rail design makes the rifle easier to expand to install various optical sights, lasers and other tactical accessories. The Z-111 factory also produces Israeli Jericho pistols, and the Vietnam Z-111 company expressed its belief that the military will gradually phase out the Soviet AK series and China 56.

In recent years, Vietnam has been able to produce surface ships, submarines and artillery, but the equipment and technology are provided by Russia, and only the final assembly has been completed. Vietnam's best domestic weapons also have Israeli technology. On the whole, Vietnam's heavy industry and military industry are too weak. Although there are nearly a hundred military industry enterprises, they can basically only maintain and provide conventional light weapons and ammunition, and cannot support the substantive development of military industry. It is very difficult for Vietnam to maintain a large military scale. Only in this way can Vietnam realize the modernization of equipment and the modernization of the country. We cannot rely on others to sustain our lives.
