Show us proof of what stage your GBADS is up to.

Gripen jets have no A-Darter missile in service today 2014.

Then you messed yourself up....

A-Darter range 20km

PL-9C range 22km

NAF beats SAAF shocked shocked

IRIS-T range: 25km.

DieVluit: Nigeria's ability to access quality weapons is no longer just a money issue. It is now also a relationship issue.

Short arms + long, empty pockets + bad personality + a never-ending insurgency = the perfect storm.
Yup,Isolate and rule.

Nigeria is isolated in west Africa. Her relationship with the west isn't that healthy.

Causing her to shake it for Chinese and Russians. Whom see her as just another African country seeking weapons.


While SA is seen as partner,now Russian companies wanna collaborate to design missiles,jets etc.

PARTNERS NOT BUYERS.

Nigeria had signed a long standing contract with ukraine for the delivery of T-84M tanks. There hve been tank crews training in the ukraine on the system, even before the Ukraine crisis began.

Nigerians do not claim. I provided prove on a Czech republic newspaper which clearly stated nigeria, Algeria and India are to take delivery of T-72's from cezch surplus stock.

There is no proof nigeria received or use the following,
****Fighter jets( although we haven't yet seen these)
Streit MK III
MRAPs
MI-35M helicopters
T-84 Oplot
Gulma Etc etc, however, we've seen photos of nigerian troops and pilots operating these systems.

PL9 has the same seeker head as the python AAM, SA makes counter messuers and as the Python AAM thus the PL9 AAMs seeker head. We can thus make a counter the PL9 far better than you the IRIS-T.

Smoke can't jam it.

Also keep in mind that SA deploys groups,similar to the army. In SA doctrine a battalion=Battalion group,comes with reccon elements,engineers,sniper etc.

With that in mind,SA doesn't deploy tanks alone they come with mechanised infantry,armoured cars etc

Fighting as a system,you deploy smoke. The Ratels(all 20,60,80,90,ZT-A3),Rooikats,Olifants,Casspirs,Mambas and others will match over your heads.

A Mokopa missile will be least of your worries,As 60mm,81 mortars,Machine guns like M1919 medium machine gun will be positions strafing

The 3km gap between IRIS-T range and PL-9 range will be closed by supersonic F-7 jet in only 1 second !!!!

PL-9 is faster and reaches target before IRIS-T.

Both SAAF and NAF will d.ie in air battle F-7 vs Gripen.

However, Su-30 and JF-17 is our new air superiority over you.

Air expo 2014 will show the world how Nigerian airforce become superior to South African air force overnight !

F-7 inferior in terms of avionics,canards,EW kit etc to the Gripen.

SAAF pilots are more trained,and their tactics proved effective when pinned against other Gripen pilots from other nations during Exercise Lion effort. In close combat.

Air combat isn't about the jets,but about the systems from C2 systems,radars and EW systems in support. How many US jets did the Indian SU-30K down during some exercise years back when support by such systems?

This SU-30Ks are the same which were returned to Russia and now some of them sold to our Angolan Allies.

The F-7 is a plain copy of the MIG-21 which SAAFF downed in Angola with cannon fire,from Mirages.

Keep dreaming dreamer!!!!

South African airforce has the WEAKEST Gripen jets in the world, poorly armed with very short range missile and only ONE missile for each jet.

SAAF pilots don't fly because of lack of funds and 12 Gripens are frozen in long term storage.

Gripen jet maneuverability is VERY poor in air combat....F-7 jet uses latest Italian radar and has ECM suite plus vertical stabilizer for flight maneuvers.

Both airforces are balanced equal today September, but by December NAF air expo Nigeria will show all it's secretly purchased NAF Flankers, Thunders, Tucanos, and 40 new combat helicopters....we are not in a hurry to show the world that NAF is now superior to SAAF.

SAAF Gripen Cs and Ds are highly advanced and South Africanised.

With the Cobra HMD the Gripen can attack,targets behind the aircraft making manoeuvrebility irrelevant.

Latest ECM with a radar coverage of less than 50km? That shows other kit is pure trash.

Gripens are rotated between short storages,every Gripen is flown within 60 days. This was after consultations with saab.

Remember they're under OT&E.

Nigeria operates more than 24 SA 330 Puma and Super Puma helicopters. Nigeria also operates 6 MI-17 transport helicopters. We have received an additional 10 MI-171SH transport helicopters from our old orders.

The MI-35 is a better, more sophisticated attack helicopter than the Rooivalk. It also has the added advantage of carrying 8 fully equipped troops.

The Airforce flies 5 C-130's, 6 G-222 and 2 known Boeing 737-500 planes.



You have a limited requirement of just 24 helicopters, yet you could only afford 10.


Oh no you don't, and cannot. You're too broke to even pay your limited number of personnel

"Life in the South African military is not seen as desirable by many potential recruits. Pay can be erratic, HIV rates are as high as 25% (making these troops unavailable for external deployment) and an estimated 35% of South Africa's military barracks have been classed as unfit for human occupation since 2007 (Mail & Guardian [Johannesburg], April 21, 2012). Without money to operate sophisticated equipment, skilled staff continue to flee at the end of their enlistment and there is little opportunity for new recruits to train in skills useful in the civilian world. Parliament's Joint Standing Committee on Defense has described abuse of women in the SANDF as "common," adding that many female recruits have been impregnated by their instructors (BUAnews, November 26, 2011). Racial abuse of black subordinates by white senior officers also remains a problem 19 years into the integration process. South African troops are unionized and have at times clashed with police during pay disputes."



No you don't, I've proven that multiple times, and I lack the will to educate you on this matter again.



Oh no you don't. You only have 10, neither could you provide the money to operate them. The U.N pays for the operation of the helicopter in the DRC as your government did not have the money to either fly them to the DRC or operate them in the DRC till the U.N reimburses.


South Africa's once-effective air force has new aircraft but cannot afford the fuel and maintenance needed to keep them in the air. Despite this, one element of the air force that did see extensive time in the air was Squadron 21, charged with flying South African VIPs and government ministers. Former defense minister Lindiwe Sisilu booked 203 flights over three years in chartered luxury Gulfstream jets at an estimated cost of $4.5 million. Some 63 of the flights were empty, as they were intended solely to pick the minister up somewhere and take her to another destination in what one opposition critic described as "a staggering waste of money"



This is the Sad state of the south-african military. You can continue living in your fantasy land all you want, it doesn't however change the sad state of the SANDF.

Even bald headed Jacob Zuma couldn't fly to today's UN General Assembly meeting in his official plane! He had to travel to the USA in a chartered aircraft. cool cool cool
