Henry120: De-rails thread and is provocative
Henry120: Is shocked when people are provoked and the thread is de-railed

The boots arent pink and the explanation was provided on multiple occasions.

Clearly you are feeling emasculated by the fantastic performance Senegal put on and are looking for a fight.

You need to be better.

Patchesagain:


Either way, the term Commando would be incorrect.

Frankly, there is only one set of Commandos who still exist and they are in the service of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth.

And they only just slip into the ambit of "SOF"

off topic :ISIS has release a video of a T-90 which turret was penetrated ,after being hit with an ATGM which cause ammo cook-off.here is a screen shot

MikeCZA:
Bloody mess!

Good this will change.

MikeCZA:
Denel like in the late 90s(when the UAV market was still dominated by a few countries) is again fast asleep!!

Proliferation of active protection systems is inevitable.

Main battle tanks can't absorb modern ATGMs hits. This should have galvanized Denel and Saab to invest massively into to the LED-150 system and marketing it more aggressively.

jakeporeshenko:

Nawa somebody cannot play with Senegal again, these guys were ready for a conventional standoff

GreenandGold:
Not that I love blood but I was hoping they'd be some kind of standoff so we'd see some action. ... I guess the Basotho (Lesotho) were slightly braver

Am just curious as to why Nigeria's military is playing second fiddle again as they did in Mali.

By not providing adequate, timely media footage of its warship, fighter jets and boots on ground, they have failed to seize the initiative.

With glossy AFP photos of their army on ground, Senegal seized the moment.

The story will be told of how the senegalese chased out Jammeh

Henry240:


They came really prepared. If the Gambians had so much as moved a muscle, they would have been completely pulverized.

Although it is also important that we take into account, Senegal is just right on the border.

Henry240:


At no point have we played second fiddle. This operation wouldn't have been possible without extensive Nigerian support.

Adequate footage has been provided. The Nigerian military released 24 photographs, 1 video and 2 extensive statements. The only country to have done that in the ECOWAS bloc.


However, i think i understand what you mean.

The Senegalese almost completely encircle Gambia, and for 6 years, Senegal and Gambia used to be a country.

That's not the story. The story gives a detailed account of all the players involved in Operation Restore Democracy.

wots ur led-150 system all about

Latest news from KDF in somalia

Tinfoil:


Propaganda! if it really happened why don't they put out a video , even if its of the aftermath. Your an idiot if you believe Kenya government press releases are credible. Looks like it is a boiler plate press release, that's why the date is filled in with an ink pen

Yeah definitely, anyone can look at a map and see the difference. It can be compared to NA soldiers deploying to the Niger delta.

It makes perfect sense that Senegal leads the way.
