iblawi: Brother, maybe we ought to discuss our countries cooperating militarily. Imagine if we purchase arms from SA. Imagine if Nigeria was to engage in technology transfer with SA. I personally would be proud to see the Rooivalk flying with nigerian colors; blowing up some boko Harams. They have the technology and we potentially have the funds to make it happen.

jl115: Do you and Patches689 sh1t out the parts used in making them? Denel isn't equal the SANDF, as your pathetic incompetent force pays for whatever they get from Denel, just like every other buyer. You cannot afford the mokopa because you are broke! On the marlin, it is still on. Paper, you don't fire BVR missiles on paper, neither can you afford it. 2 Likes |

Bartitsu:seem u don't understand this people. We bought MRAPs from them just to show them love and promote there market as African what did we get from them. They claimed they were the 1s that crushed boko haram. And I stated wandering what Chad, Cameroon and Niger would say. Immediately we ask for there helicopter only God knows what will Happen. Russia that trained thousands of troops and sold several equipment to us didn't say a thing. This makes me wonder. Don't bother about their helicopter cos we are getting Apache soon. Funding would soon start for DICON and we will Make things happen steadily. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Henry120: How then do you explain the use of "Juliet Troop" of G6 howitzers at the Battle of Quito? At the time it was not in SADF service At the time it was not in SADF inventories At the time the SADF had not paid a single cent for it Yet, Denel provided an entire troop (6 guns) for the battle. If Denel makes it, if Denel has it in its inventories, then the SANDF has access to it and can deploy it if needed. This the benefit having a state owned Defence Industry And no, since they are firing one in September the Marlin is not "just on paper". 1 Like |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by jl115: 4:18pm On Aug 17, 2015 |
Henry120:1. If the SANDF need it they will get it for free, for example if a war breaks out. 2. The Marlin is going to be test fired next month, doesn't sound to me like its still on paper. |

Its been a busy day today at Simons town, thought id post these pics on this thread considering we don't use our Lynx helicopters with our Valours according to @Agaugust Seem like SAS Spioenkop and SAS Manthatisi are going to conduct some ASW exercises, something Nigeria can only dream about. P.S The rest of todays pic are on the other thread if anyone wishes to view them. 2 Likes

jl115: Algeria has ordered 42 units of Mi-28 Havoc, go see it on SIPRI, they have paid and awaiting delivery. Compare that to your 11 old Rooivalks. Also, Algeria has ordered 6 units ofSuper Lynx ASW helicopters. Compare to your own 4 units. Algerian Yak-130 is a modern 2010 jet that just entered service in Russia, your SAAF Hawks are 1995 twenty year old technology from Britain. Su-30 MKA of Algeria is a special variant of year 2012 mix loaded with French made avionics, Southie nation is flying the basic 1995 old type Gripen jet with no upgrade. Then Algeria has S-300 anti-aircraft missiles with about 200 km range, South Africa has NO SINGLE long range anti-aircraft missile, you carry hand/shoulder held MANPADS that fly max 1km altitude to kill pigeons ! Algerian navy Kilo submarines are two types, the basic kilo and the new improved Kilo on order, it beats your 1990s generation Heroine subs. You want to compare Algeria's new armed landing ship with your obsolete SAS Drakensberg? Their navy has ordered, paid and construction is far advanced for their superior MEKO and TIGER frigates that beat your obsolete combat suite Valour frigates that carry 1970s repainted guns, while your Exocet missiles are the old types with 78km range, the Algerians have the modern 180 km range Exocets. Comparing South Africa's military to that of Algeria on a basis of who is more modern, is like comparing a Nokia 3310 and I-Phone 5. Fool ! Stop this nonsense.

jl115: Show us proof that DENEL now supplies ALL....ALL spare parts for Hawk jets that you imported part by part, piece by piece, the entire CKD from Britain . |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 12:21am On Aug 18, 2015 |
patches689: 1. You have an imbalanced and incomplete navy, NO aircraft at all and NO stealth IPV, MPV, OPV, no super speed ocean Interceptors. 2. Hawks have no radar, they need a Gripen to fly beside them to 'borrow' radar. 3. Just 6 Gripen pilots today. 4. Obsolescent Rooivalks, only 11 combat helicopters.....Nigeria has about 50 ! 5. Many modern things Nigeria has that you dream of in South Africa, missile armed drones and man portable quad-copter night drones, they don't exist in your country. May I add, Nigerian army has over 500 units of modern amphibious armoured vehicles that can cross a river for combat operations.....South African army is a dry land only army....obsolete and outdated for that reason alone ![]() ![]() .

jl115: I said the Lynx belong to your air force and are based on land at 22 squadron airbase, they only land on the ships occassionaly and NOT constantly as @Patches falsely claimed, reason why 95% of valour frigate photos show no helicopter on board. You failed comprehension in school. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 12:34am On Aug 18, 2015 |
ssaengine: [size=13pt]Bwahahaahaha ![]() ![]() Did you read your own source at all? It says you are testing unguided rocket, basic straight line shot rocket firing, not a missile. Marlin rocket booster only ![]() ![]() Your source story says the guided Marlin missile itself will NOT be tested until November 2016. Then we can expect it to enter service in 2020 because the story says South Africa is still looking for foreign countries to become joint development partners. You have no BVR missile and you will NOT have one soon....still many years away ! SAAF is stuck with 19 km range A-Darter missile, NAF F-7 jet has 22 km range, we are about the same level .[/size] |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 1:08am On Aug 18, 2015 |
. You are just testing a dumb rocket with zero guidance, and BTWN, your Marlin missle...I mean rocket looks ugly, even the one Nigeria is building in a workshop looks better ! You like insulting other people's prototypes, and I have told you that the day we see photo of your own prototypes, they will be more ugly....and also, that DENEL workshop looks like my secondary school laboratory in Lagos ! .

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 2:09am On Aug 18, 2015 |
agaugust: No A-Darter is a next gen missile Thus, by definition, not the same level |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 3:05am On Aug 18, 2015 |
agaugust: You failed comprehension at school When deployed to the valour class, as they are constantly, they are kept in the hangar So, unless you have x-ray vision you have no idea as to wether or not a Lynx is on board. Just when i thought i had seen all of the pointless, infantile and simply meaningless arguments you could possibly make... You somehow manage to top yourself by reaching new depths of imbecility. Aparrently, it has never occurrd to our resident military researcher that the hangers on ships are used to store aircraft ![]() ![]() 2 Likes |

jl115:are you shocked that Nigeria is getting Apache, the news is everywhere that's the power of Nigeria. We do unexpected things. U are not close to being a super power in Africa but Nigeria clearly is. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 5:47am On Aug 18, 2015 |
agaugust: 1. You have an imbalanced and incomplete navy, NO aircraft at all and NO stealth IPV, MPV, OPV, no super speed ocean Interceptors. LOL - an argument based on technicalities -"no aircraft" What are the 4 super Lynx? By comparison Nigeria has no operational maritime aircraft -"no stealth opv etc" Valour class is stealth, as is the heroine class submarine. Both can perform maritime patrol By contrast Nigeria has no operational warships and no submarines -"no super speed Interceptors" You mean apart from the Lynx, T-CRAFT and Namacurra Class? 2. Hawks have no radar, they need a Gripen to fly beside them to 'borrow' radar Do your alpha jets have radar? No! Can your alpha jets borrow radar? NO!! Can your alpha jets (majority if them) deploy PGMS? NO! Can your alpha jets engage in air-to-air missile combat? NO! You clearly didn't think that through. 3. Just 6 Gripen pilots today. Not even going to bother responding to such blatant trolling. 4. Obsolescent Rooivalks, only 11 combat helicopters.....Nigeria has about 50 ! - You don't have fifty. You know it and I know it - Obsolete compared to what? Your ancient Hinds? Combat in Congo proves Rooivalk > Hind 5. Many modern things Nigeria has that you dream of in South Africa, missile armed drones and man portable quad-copter night drones, they don't exist in your country - You don't have hand held drones - South Africa also has missile armed drones (ours don't crash). May I add, Nigerian army has over 500 units of modern amphibious armoured vehicles that can cross a river for combat operations.....South African army is a dry land only army....obsolete and outdated for that reason alone[/b] - Please list what these 500 units of modern amphibious units are - Please state how this renders our army obsolete - Please list one instance where an army with amphibious armored vehicles have crossed a river to play a decisive role in a battle (post WW2) Lol, August, this is probably one of your more pathetic posts. Now shall I list the things we have that you do not? 1 Like |
