Tying a tape round Two or more MAG's allow for quick change of MAG's. The Ukrainians do it, the russians also do it etc etc it allows you carry more rounds in your pouches.

The year of our lord 2014.

Thinking that the Russians and Ukranians are something to aspire to be.

Christ, help this man.

Trucks are used by every military in battle, you've seen U.S commandos driving toyota Tacoma trucks in afghanistan. Again I pasted those images when you began arguing aimlessly.

Yes, ELITE NATO light recon elements roll around in specially designed vehicles bristling with MG's and with JDAMS only minutes away.

The BULK of NATO forces roll around in MRAPs

in Nigeria its the other way around.

Your average grunt has to roll around in what is effectively a civilian vehicle

We do not lack armoured vehicles.

Yes you do - because your men have to roll around in soft skinned vehicles.

IGIRIGI APC's,
Proforce ACV,
Up armoured pinguaer trucks,
Streit MK3
Streit MK2,


Is it just me, or is the citation for this statement missing?

Dummy,

Does a Toyota Tacoma read like an SPV?

"Errrr, stop calling christ when you know you're a shameless sinner".

The russians have the world's second largest military, and are the world's second largest export of conventional arms.

Yes, that is a spot I'll like to aspire to.


Pick-up trucks are a main stay in militaries, you can't navigate thin city streets in MRAPs dummy.

We don't lack APC's, we can basically churn out hundreds of them every year from the local industry, not even adding those which are imported from abroad.

The Gulma which has already entered service or the spy ballon which has and is still been used by troops and police in Mali and the north-east.

Yeah and the SANDF has a squadron of flying spagetti monsters

The bushmaster and the cougar are the world's leading MRAPs.

2. Cougar

compared to

Casspir

Number built: 2500 - entire production run not recorded
- used by 20 nations
- fought in 8 wars

Gee, I wonder which is the best MRAP in the world


MiG-21 jet

Number built: 12,000

Gripen jet

tons of photos of 7div the guys fighting BH on the web.

still a AK47, AKM is just a modified 47 i don't think any body uses the old original AK47 any more. It is like comparing a M16A2 to a M16A3.

means when you go prone in dirt you slam the top of the mag in to dirt increasing the chances of this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYGvmPKUwhc

Have you ever spoken to a us infantry solder in real life, i have and brits. Not according to the photos or to what your solders tell the press.

True, but you use them for every thing, not just commando work, yes you have Armourd stuff but not in nearly enough numbers.

The essence is, the army doesn't use AK-47 rifles. That doesn't happen as soldier clean their rifles regularly, damn, they even dis-assemble the damn thing in pitch darkness.

Watch the documentary "for the 25". The U.S soldier who made the documentary explained his kit and ORBAT in battle. He only carries 7 mags, 6 on him and 1 in the rifle.

We have enough Armoured vehicles. Over 1500 light armoured vehicles is clearly enough. It is left for the policy makers to deploy armoured vehicles how they see fit.

'According to him, the idea began in 2005 with the acquisition of three Aerostar UAVs for the defunct Presidential Committee on Maritime Safety and Security, PICOMSS, which was frustrated “by numerous vendor-related problems that eventually led to the grounding of all the three systems in 2009."


“Following the dissolution of PICOMSS in 2012, the Federal Government handed over the UAVs to the NAF”.
He said NAF Optimising Local Engineering, NAF OLE, which handled the project, did it at the cost of $3 million, half of the $6 million quoted by foreign vendors and also trained 15 UAV pilots at less than half a million dollars compared to the $2 million quoted by foreign vendors to train only three pilots.

JERUSALEM/LAGOS May 20 (Reuters) - Nigeria bought Israeli surveillance drones years ago that might have been used to hunt for more than 200 girls held by Islamist rebels, but poor maintenance has left them grounded, two official sources and the aircraft's manufacturer said.

"To the best of our knowledge, these systems aren't operational," Tsur Dvir, marketing officer for Aeronautics Defense Systems, a firm based south of Tel Aviv that supplied Nigeria with Aerostar unmanned aerial vehicles, said on Tuesday.
