agaugust:According to the manufacturer - 7,200 miles https://www.thyssenkrupp-marinesystems.com/en/blohmvoss-mekor-a-200-class-frigate.html So thats Lagos and back with 1000 miles to spare, on "one tank" |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 7:40pm On Oct 01, 2014 |
MikeZA: SAS Drakensberg. Give us source to prove Valour frigates can be refuelled at sea by SAS Drakenberg and give us prove Valour frigates did not refuel in Brazil before returning home. Soon Simons town navy base will be empty of warships with this your mis-adventure of patrolling the whole Gulf Of Guinea 12,000 km sea travel to and fro....your Submarine will soon hit sea bottom again . |

patches689: What is "one tank" ? That 7,200 miles range is maximum your ship can sail. FIRST, your 7,200 miles is ONLY at very slow speed according to your source, means your ship must NEVER speed chase a pirate. If your ship runs after a pirate to intercept, your tank is now less than 7,200 miles range once you exceed that slow 16 knots speed. Nigerian navy has had to use 50 knot speed Shaldag gun boats to chase and capture sea pirates because pirates like every other thief/criminal don't stop for you to arrest them ! They run away as fast as possible. With your compulsory Valour Frigate speed limit of 16 knots snail speed, even Fish will dribble your navy around like school children. SECOND, that 3,000 mile range Cape Town to Lagos is ONLY along coastline shipping routes, you must NOT sail off that single straight line to intercept a pirate that has snatched ship in the offshore high seas and heading towards Ghana, Brazil, or Europe ! If you try it, your fuel will not take you back home, so you have to beg Nigeria for diesel or do like Angola and beg Nigeria to send ATR-42 Surveyor and NNS Thunder to help you chase the pirates ! I am showing you reality of sea power force projection in maritime patrol of a the massive 5 mllion square kilometres kilometre of ocean waters in the Gulf of Guinea to Namibia that you dream of patrolling with one warship and one submarine and no single aircraft ! Nigerian navy has about 12 long range frigate and corvette size warships plus 2 ATR-42 long range aircraft plus 4 Dornier 228 long range aircraft and 2 space satellites scanning and patrolling that 5 million square kilometres 24 hours every day ! CONCLUSION, South African navy will be calling Nigerian navy and NAF for help when your misguided adventure into West Africa begins, even if you bring the whole of your navy here, you will still beg for diesel like Oliver Twist always asking for more Welcome to the difficult world of international long range maritime patrolling and it's technical difficulties and realities, a mission that Mandela's navy is NOT equipped to undertake.....See why Nigeria built a patrolling navy before starting to now build a warfare navy? You buy what you need for survival first, the luxury comes later, simple common sense !

patches689: I just said it, you have already started begging for diesel Nigerian navy does NOT refuel anywhere, we sail the Gulf of Guinea on one tank load only, we have two ships that can sail around the whole African continent without stopping to beg for fuel donation like a car accident victim looking for blood donor at the nearest available hospital. Now Nigeria is a blue water sailing navy. We see South Africa failing the practical test of force projection....on your knees begging Angola for diesel to save your expensive shiny Valour frigates....Shame Shame Shame !!! . 4 Likes

Centrifude: The real question that we should be asking here is that, how many soldiers has Nigeria lost to Boko-Haram, since one out side Nigeria know how many, because your army only releases the number B.H fighters killed, what are they hiding, why do civilians and the soldiers say one thing, and then Government official come and deny it.?? |

First of, Nobody knows everything, neither did I claim I knew everything. On the question, you don't go about printing/posting names of heroic soldiers like they're some filthy statistics on the wall. We don't keep scores with dirty terrorists. We make sure we facilitate their meeting with their maker. No question asked. This is what is important, Dead soldiers are giving a proper military burial, there Gratuities are paid to their next of kin and the state pays for the eduction of their wards, including free medical care at military and government hospitals. "Gen. Chris Olukolade @GENOlukolade3d On Honour for Slain Soldiers: We do give due/befitting burials. Publicity is deliberately downplayed owing to sentiment #VictoryforNigeria" Nigeria has lost around 400 troops since the start of this insurgency. 2 Likes |

agaugust: Why is this guy still arguing? The valour class can sail all the way to Lagos and patrol for 1000miles and then sail home all on one tank of gas Pirate interceptions will be done with helicopters Valour class can be refueled by the Drakensberg if need be This guy, he thinks his opinion can change the facts of the matter Also - you don't have 12 frigate sized ships Also- at the end he admits that the Nigerian Navy cannot match the SAN in terms of naval warfare Augubug and his delusions of grandeur 1 Like |

US sends medical experts to study how Nigeria tamed Ebola Stunned by the entrance of the Ebola Virus Disease, EVD, into America, the United States’ Center for Disease Control and Prevention has despatched its personnel to study how Nigeria contained the killer disease. US health officials are expected in Nigeria which it claimed had the best practices in combating Ebola Virus disease which entered into Nigeria through Liberian born American citizen Mr. Patrick Sawyer whose index case was reported on July 20, 2014. Nigeria is expected to officially announce today that the remaining two potential Ebola patients will exit the 21-day observation period. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/10/us-sends-medical-experts-study-nigeria-tamed-ebola/ 4 Likes |
