agaugust: You do not know which missile, if any, Nigeria will choose to arm. You just went onto the net and found a missile with the longest range you can find to try and impress people. Your famous 500 post is just a wish list. We can also make wish lists if we want. Even your wikipedia link shows the weapon has been a failure. Not even China is listed as an operator. |

andrewza: AndrewZA's comedy train continues with more excuses! Where were your field commanders? They must have abandoned the troops at that point!! Makes me wonder why your President must give you orders in a situation where you are faced suddenly with enemy firepower? You confirm again SANDF's lack of command organisation/hierachy that is smart enough to contain sudden enemy fire! That France controlled the airport is a lame excuse ... the battle was not at the airport! Days after the disgrace it's so sad that Jacob Zuma was "fiddling" while your SANDF waited for orders! Your fat-stomach generals must all resign as they had no guts to give required orders! That's the difference between Nigeria's Armed Forces and SANDF. Please take responsibility for your failures rather than blame France! |

South Africa has no commercially navigable rivers, but ocean shipping has long been a feature of its transportation network, capitalizing on the country's two-ocean frontage. The earliest nineteenth-century shipping firms began as coastal carriers for local commerce, traveling between southern African ports. After World War II, private investors initiated an international shipping service, and in 1946 the state corporation, South African Marine Corporation (Safmarine), assumed control over the private company. Safmarine operates container ships, general cargo vessels, and bulk carriers for mineral exports, and, since the 1980s, has offered expanded service to Europe, North America, South America, and Asia (South Korea, Hong Kong, and Taiwan). In 1992 it purchased the newest of its five container ships, Oranje , from Croatia at a cost of R100 million. South Africa has six major commercial ports: Durban, Richards Bay, Cape Town, Saldanha Bay, Port Elizabeth, and East London. Portnet manages their facilities, including cargo-handling equipment, wharves, and container terminals, and provides services such as tugs, berthing, and cargo handling. Portnet also sets the standards for such services offered by private businesses. (In addition, Portnet manages forty-six lighthouses--eighteen operated by keepers and twenty-eight that are automatic.) Relying on containerization and automation to speed up service, Portnet handled more than 127 million tons of cargo on more than 12,900 seagoing vessels in 1994. Each major port has traditionally played an important, specialized role in South Africa's export sector. For example, Durban handles general cargo, especially cereal exports; Cape Town specializes in exports of deciduous fruit, wine, and vegetables; and Saldanha Bay was built specifically to export mineral ores from the Northern Cape. Durban's port encompasses 893 hectares of bay area. The port entrance channel is 12.7 meters deep at low tide. Durban has five deep-sea and two coastal container berths, and provides 15,195 meters of quayage for commercial ships. Durban also has repair facilities, including a floating dry dock. Through the 1980s, Durban was South Africa's busiest general cargo port, handling as much as 25 percent of the country's imports and exports in some years, but it was being surpassed by Richards Bay in the 1990s. Richards Bay, a deep-water port 193 kilometers northeast of Durban, was commissioned in 1976 primarily to export coal from the eastern Transvaal, but by the early 1990s it was handling almost one-half of all cargo passing through South African ports. Port facilities can accommodate bulk carriers of up to 250,000 tons, with five berths for general and bulk cargo, and a coal berth. Cape Town has one of the largest dry docks in the southern hemisphere, including five berths for container vessels and general cargo carriers, a pier for coastal traffic, and extensive ship repair facilities. The port at Cape Town has a water area of 112.7 hectares. Port Elizabeth's enclosed water area of about 115 hectares has more than 3,400 meters of quayage for commercial shipping and a container terminal that has two berths. Vessels with a draught of up to twelve meters can use the harbor, and offshore anchorage is available for vessels of any draught. Facilities at Port Elizabeth include a mechanical ore-handling plant, which can process up to 1,500 tons per hour, and a precooling storage area with a capacity of 7,500 cubic meters. Saldanha Bay, 110 kilometers northwest of Cape Town, is the largest port on the west coast of Africa and one of the best natural ports in the world. The facilities at Saldanha Bay provide anchorage in the lee of a breakwater where the minimum water depth is 14.6 meters. With a port area of about 5,000 hectares, Saldanha Bay is larger than the combined areas of the ports of Durban, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, and East London. The ore-loading jetty can handle carriers of 350,000 tons. South Africa's only river port, East London, is situated at the estuary of the Buffalo River in Eastern Cape province. Although East London is the smallest of the six major ports, it has a 75,000-ton capacity grain elevator--the largest in South Africa. East London handles agricultural exports and is the main outlet for copper exports from other African countries, such as Zambia and Zaire. Two other coastal cities--Simonstown, south of Cape Town, and Mossel Bay, between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth--have substantial port facilities. Mossel Bay is a commercial fishing harbor between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth, and Simonstown is a naval base and training center TO NAIRAS HERE ARE THE PHOTOS OF AFRICA'S LARGEST DRY DOCK

Invited by the SA Navy, ships from the Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group (TR CSG) assigned to Commander, U.S. Naval Forces Europe-Commander, U.S. Sixth Fleet, arrived in Cape Town in the first week of October 2008, as part of an ongoing effort to reinforce relationships, increase interoperability and address maritime issues. The visit by the Nimitz-class nuclear aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) (TR) to Cape Town marked the first time an American carrier has visited South Africa in more than 40 years. The last carrier to visit South Africa was USS Franklin D Roosevelt in 1967. The TR is also the first nuclear powered auircraft carrier to visit South Africa and permission had to be obtained from the National Nuclear Regulator prior to the TR being allowed to enter South African waters. |
