This page needs some serious work, especially for a modern armed forces like that in the UAE. Anybody with any further knowledge of the UAE's defence situation? Much thanks.--RobNS 20:05, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What?

"The UAE went on an expansion drive in 1995, which began with the 1992-93 acquisition of 436 Leclerc Tanks and 415 BMP-3 Armored Vehicles."

That doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

What exactly is the significance of 1995?
