The M-94 Serdar is both a fire support vehicle meant to augment motor rifle brigades and a monstrous amalgamation of several Yugoslavian designs. For starters, the fangs of the Serdar are implanted technologies first explored in the M-91 Podaga, albeit with some modifications. Although the general turret assembly and reloading mechanism are direct ports from the Podaga, the coaxial 7.62mm MG, enhanced optics, improved fire-control system, and stand-off ATGM are all recent additions. Paired with the baseline 120mm main gun, these additions have generously improved the accuracy and general lethality of the Podaga system. On the other side of the coin--that is to say defensive capabilities--the Serdar features an active protection system (APS) first designed by Zastava Arms for the M-81B Ipabog. This hardkill APS allows the Serdar to defeat incoming rocket-propelled grenades and anti-tank missiles commonly employed by post-Soviet states in Eastern and Southern Europe. It is worth noting that discussions of mounting explosive reactive applique to the hull a la the Ipabog came to naught in fear of hindering mobility via increased weight and restricting the ability for the wheels to turn. The compromise was to simply weld additional armor to the crewed midsection of the chassis. Although not enough to deter premier anti-tank penetrators, it gives allied combatants a certain degree of peace of mind. Though, the downside is that the Serdar's amphibious capabilities have been neutered. Despite still retaining the aquatic propulsion system, the trim vane has been removed on most vehicles to make room for additional softkill electronic counter measures.

Nevertheless, as previously alluded to, the Serdar's shared heritage with the M-82 Hajduk makes it perfectly capable of keeping pace with Yugoslavia's potent motor rifle brigades. Indeed, despite the Hajduk's 100mm gun already being enough to neutralize most moderately-armored foes, the Serdar's high velocity 120mm cannon is enough to keep enemy MBTs at bay. This has caused some consternation amongst NATO planners who presently sponsor security missions in the region. As Ukraine and Bulgaria--two states dependent on partnership with NATO--fail to catch up with the modernization curve, much of the heavy lifting has been shunted unto Britain, the United States, and ZEUS. This means that in the event of a Third Eastern European War, NATO tankers will be the first ones exposed to Yugoslavia's anti-armor investments. Although NATO remains confident that their defensive technologies and tier-one training regimens will win them the day, the threat of embarrassing casualty reports haunt the organization. More or less, if the Serdar manages to perform as advertised, it could help rattle NATO soothsayers even further, thereby increasing the clout of Belgrade and its allies near and abroad.

As always, big thanks to Evan for doing the decal work. I should gift him something valuable like KodakCoin someday.

My son has beautiful blue eyes and some awesome hipster glasses.

This is my special needs adult son who was surprisingly cheerful about letting me photograph his eyeball.

In the end, the words won't matter

In the end, nothing stays the same

In the end, dreams just scatter and fall like rain

Love this song! All We Are

Since it's 90* today and it only rains in So Cal about 5 days per year (ha!), I attempted to make my own rain but that wasn't working out too well. Ah well, it's the effort that counts ;)

Now off to dinner with one of my besties at Red Robin..YUM!!
