MikeZA: You can quote me.

The SANDF has weapons which aren't inservice nor reserve. Like tanks,Missiles and howitzers.

Some are from the war in Angola,some where bought through shady channels.

The Mokopa was developed under a contract from DoD,part of project impose. The missile is already in production. SA has them.

MikeZA: Yes,including troop numbers and the overall defence force.

Meaning numbers have to be scaled down,as the need for 36 was for the war in Angola.

The ORIGINAL intention or should I say idea to produce 36 Rooivalks came from the needs of a country in war.

MikeZA: Air strikes !!!!

Would be ideal for countries like Egypt,fighting Israel whom can establish a total "air barrier".

But if you don't have total air control over the area that system is operating,then well................

Dead according to Cameroon. According to Nigeria. According..

You've been lambasted once for celebrating the 'death' of Shekau when there's a thousand other Shekaus. Don't let us lambast you again here. We will know soon enough what the real story is.

agaugust:

Who killed Shekau I & II ? South African SF ?
.

agaugust:

You should be lambasting your cowardly SANDF that cannot kill Seleka rebels leader. South Africa is a toothless bulldog.

Nigerian army is 100 times more intelligent than you imagine, they said this Shekau is fake and just impersonating the real Abubakar Shekau we already killed in 2013. Our army named this guy as follows....

"The Defence Headquarters confirmed that self-acclaimed leader of the Boko Haram sect, Mohammed Bashir, alias "Abubakar Shekau" had died in an encounter with troops at Konduga in Borno."

Belarus to supply 12 helicopters to Nigerian Air Force
Posted by: Onyedi Ojiabor, Assistant Editor and Sanni Onogu, Abuja in Featured, News 4 days ago

"Nigeria will soon take delivery of 12 helicopters to aid the war on terror from Belarus. This fact emerged yesterday at a rowdy session in the Senate. Helicopters are crucial for decisive victory over the war against terror. Quick victory cannot be accomplished without helicopters because of the terrain and the nature of the operations to be undertaken. The 12 nos. M135 helicopters being requested for now are appropriate for the nature of the operation and the terrain."

the critical state of decline of the SA National Defence Force (SANDF)," he said.

Defence Review gathering dust in Parliament

Maynier points out the Review, originally known as the 2012 Defence Review because that was when it was supposed to be completed and tabled in Parliament, eventually made it to the National Assembly as the 2014 Defence Review early in July.


"The Review has been gathering dust in Parliament for nearly three months. The Joint Standing Committee on Defence must make recommendations to the Minister (Mapisa-Nqakula) on the Review."


the critical state of decline of the SA National Defence Force (SANDF)," he said.

ActivateKruger:

The South African mercenaries that killed Jonas Savimbi.

Patchesagain:

The SANDF is putting the policy in place allready

Its just a matter of parliament rubber-stamping the documents

agaugust:

Crack another joke

Anyway, facts are...

South African Mercenaries are NOT South African army....

Nigerian army killed Shekau.....not Nigerian mercenaries.

SANDF is a bunch of old men with aged hearts and young men with HIV ridden bodies.....ALL TOGETHER SPINELESS

.

ActivateKruger:

The "State of Decline SANDF" has just spent US$$400million on a military exercise. That's equivalent to;
- 13 Su 27s or
- 10 more Rooivalks or
- 7 more Gripens or
- 200 T-72 tanks

.... the list is endless.

think about it, we're in "a state of decline."

#NigeriaCantBeatThat

agaugust:

Same old story....100% dreams....0% reality

agaugust:

Based on your list above, I will show you how M.O..RO.NIC you are.

One T-72 tank today's 2014 price costs $2 million, so your $400 million peanut money will only buy the 200 units of T-72 tanks on your list.

That long list will cost you $ 1.7 Billion....M..ORO..N

South African mercenaries are a product of the SANDF or SAPS Special Task Force or South African paramilitary training inspired by SANDF doctrines.

Agububu, our mercenaries are products of our military training.

ActivateKruger:

coz you're a fvcking sh!t.... you don't real posts... there is or at the end of each item.

agaugust:

Are you mercenaries the ones that your army deploys, e.g. in AU, UN, SADC ?

South African armed forces have no new achievement in the last 20 years of cowardice and almost zero activity, that is why you people are so frustrated you start posting World War II history or private company mercenaries.

Most country has veterans and mercenaries, Nigeria has them aplenty from ECOMOG 12 year long war.

This forum's topic is not about African mercenaries and PMCs, it is a military thread, official national military forces of countries.

ActivateKruger:

Abububu.... don't contradict yourself, you asked if our SF killed Shekau (as an act of accrediting your own SF ), I simply answered that our mercenaries did.

Now don't get frustrated that our mercenaries are taking glory in your backyard while your so called SF is eating cassava.
