What looks like two types of tanks the first group seem to have squared turrets and one being what I think is a T-59 with a round turret makes up the bulk. Some SP guns don't know if there 152mm or 155mm, tracked APC, and 4 axial APC's. Looks like a Brigade or maybe more and one has to assume there's more in country. It might be a pony show and Chinese drivers take over and just bring the equipment back to the Chinese positions I don't know. Looking at a map of the area does Chad have tanks and other armor equipment? Also some what I think are K-8 jet trainers flying over which could mean a bunch of things really not just pilots being trained. Never saw a Chinese tracked APC or IFV before so clearly looks strange to me could be a heavy machine or 23/30mm cannon mounted on the front. If someone could help with a rundown on the equipment types it would be helpful, thanks in advance.
