RECOVERING LTTE HEAVY ARMOR

SRI Lankan Defence Forces [SLDF] today recovered 2 no's 130mm artillery guns buried by the LTTE in the Puthukudiruppu area. These weapons, which appear to have been made in China, are brand new. However due to the close quarters fighting which is the way the final stages of this war will be faught, it is doubtful whether these long range weapons will serve any useful purpose for the SLDF either.

The guns are said to be worth at least USD 0.8Million each. Indeed a nice Independence Day gift from the hard working tamil diaspora to the SLG.
