..................................[size=16pt]who built south africa ?[/size]
south africa was not built to its present status by the f.ools who form the majority there.
it is the minority white european immigrants and racist apartheid colonialists who are citizens of south africa that built the country's general infrastructure, socio-economic system, and technology with the help of their fellow white blood brothers in europe, done over a long period of more than 100 years with the hope that they will live in and rule over the black and coloured people of south africa for ever and ever.
these 5 million whites are the ones who used their white blood influence to transfer european standards, principles, systems and technology to develop south africa to its present level. they feed on the gold, diamonds, iron ore, copper and other mineral resources of south africa to enrich themselves and rob/enslave the blacks over the 100 years or so period of their colonization.
this is the only reason south africa is a better developed country than the rest of africa. simple truth.
the m.oronic and d.eemonic south africans we have on this thread (i exempt @andrewza) are not the class of people who built south africa, they are the parasite class who feed on what others cooked and reap where they did not sow, then boast about it.
the real heroes of south africa talk and reason differently, but they are the minority group that does the majority of the work and thinking that made south africa what it is.
let our nairaland south african parasites not boast that their 33% brain is hiding behind the curtain of the real educated, skilled, and industrious south africans who built the over 100 year old 'bridge' between their adopted country here in africa, and their original countries far away in europe.
well @THIZA, sorry i have to dissappoint you again, about 90% of DENEL manufactured weapons are light weapons and those cannot win you a war against powerful countries like Egypt, Nigeria, Algeria, Ethiopia, and Morooco.
no competent military academy in the world will tell you that a country will defeat another in war just because it manufactures more weapons than the enemy. Ethiopia can fight and defeat South Africa without importing any more weapons today, because they have better soldiers and officers with many years battle experience ans unbeaten war records.
i want to settle this your matter finally today.
see my boy, war is won by heavy weapons and not all these small small DENEL toys like grenade launcher, R4 rfle, radar, ingwe missile, etc that you psot here. you need heavy firepower platforms like jet fighters, tanks, warships, submarines, and in this modern day a spy satellite which south africa does NOT have !
these heavy weapons are 'game changers' that determine who wins a war, and also depends on the quality of soldiers that operate and use them in combat.
DENEL does NOT manufacture any of south africa's heavy firepower weapon platforms except the G6 mobile artillery and you have only 46 pieces of it. how will that save you from Libya that has 210 Palmaria mobile artillery 3 years ago ?
the heavy weapons of south africa are all imported made in europe, i have posted it before and i wont repeat it again so get it now and be finally dissapointed, i am sorry sir.
Gripen jets....made in Sweden
Hawk Jets....British product, imported in parts, then assembled
Oryx Transport Helicopter .....French Puma imported and converted
Super Lynx Anti-Submarine helicopter......British product imported
Oliphant Tank....British Centurion Tank imported and upgraded
Badger IFV....Finland's Patria AMV product to be imported and maybe some assembled
Valour Frigate Warship....German product imported
Type 209 Submarine .....German product imported
now remove all this Europe made imported heavy weapons from south africa and Angola will defeat you in one week see why i told you that south african military is not the strongest in africa just because DENEL and other companies manufacture some toy light weapons. the same way south africa imports all its heavy weapons listed above, the same way Algeria, Morocco, Ethiopia, and Nigeria also imports from overseas...all of us are in the same heavy weapons importation pot of pepper soup together now, haba...so how you go take beat us ? you get 2 heads ?
.
The list is endless!!! What about the fleet of Armoured and heavy vehicles, howitzers, bombs and missiles. Those are not small arms. Do you want me to list them for you.

My friend, can't you atleast be corrected at once because what you have written above is just a piece of thrush from someone who doesn't have a slightest clue about Denel. Denel is a big company which is divided into many subsidiaries, such as Land system, Aviation, Munitions, etc. I have picked up where you ignorantly claimed that 90% of Denel's products are light weapons, that is very WRONG and UNTRUE. Maybe you do not understand what is meant by light weapons. Light weapons are;
-Pistols -Light Machine guns -Sniper rifles -Assault rifles, etc.
Surely, the above list is not what Denel put much of their focus on and if I put it on estimation that would probably be around 8% of their overall exports.
Denel land system produces heavy artillery weapons, IFV, tanks, heavy military trucks, etc while the Aviation division put much of their focus on Missiles, UAV, Helicopters and Air Fighters. The Rheinmetall Denel Munitions in Potchefstroom focuses more into producing variety of powerful bombs and anti-tank mines. There are many division in Denel for which some I do not even know about.
As for the list above; Cheetah, Orynx, Rooivalk and Olifant tank are proudly South African products built by Denel. What is wrong of using an already prepared product as a model to design yours? It has happened in China, Japan, France, America, etc. Nobody came with a helicopter from heaven and every country made theirs by either copying the model or importing the skill by monetary exchange. All those products were build from scratch in SA and in respect of Rooivalk, SA had always flown it with an ordinary helicopter engine until it started showing defects. Denel never had the capability of designing the gunship engine and had to import the skill for upgrades from a french aviation company.
The "brainless" maggots have built a country far better than Naai-geria. The "brainless" maggots have built a military far better than Naai-geria's. The "brainless" maggots put forward far better arguments than Naai-gerians do. The "brainless" maggots are clearly better and far more advanced as a species.
The Naai-gerian humanoids are stuck in an era, sadly.
The era is called "when we were giants". The era hasn't arrived yet.
wrong. The brainless maggots are reaping from the foundation laid by the founding fathers of SA of today (the dutch).
Thhe brainless maggots have turned south african military and police to the latest joke of the century.
The brainless maggots are the current generation that attend two beautiful universities and still have nothing to show for it (craigbitch, msauza)
you didn't build south africa, you don't run south africa. I will reveal the brains that still run SA and to my knowledge they've carved out a seperate autonomous state for themselvs. You are brainless maggots

Can you please tell us what percentage of the Badger IFV is produced in SA? How many of the systems being used on the South African badger are designed and built in SA? Patria is just a chassis. And how many of them will be imported? Only 16 out of 264.

am surprised you avoided the richest black man and richest africans' list. you dumb die
We are all South African. Your attempts to divide us will fail ! You'll do better creating more fake interviews with phantom military men.
You destroyed your country, but ours keeps growing. The British tried to wash you lot up, but you went back into the dumpster as soon as they left. Blerry humanoids.
When was the stuff below built, loser?
You Naai-gerians couldn't build a tree house if it came with an assembly manual! Nature gave you lot oil, but denied you brains!
The reason for South Africa's being advanced is irrelevant. Show me a country without a history. The fact is South Africa is advanced. End of story. And South Africa continues to be advanced.
The leading airports of South Africa: When were they upgraded?
The airport below, King Shaka - the second best airport in the whole of Africa. When was it built?
The South African brain is unlike the Naai-gerian brain, loser. That's why your precious MTN chairman says "yes baas" to Sifiso Dabengwa.
You can't divide us, loser. Black and white - we're South African.

Mediator’s dilemma: Mediation in South Africa – an unequal, deeply divided, transitional society
It emerged that the white worker who was part of the manager’s meeting, was recently employed, trained by the black workers and promoted. The physical space was divided – white manager and worker upstairs and black workers downstairs. A black male supervisor, more senior than the white worker, had an office downstairs even though their work was similar.
show me a south african man that will come near nigerian ladies like Genevieve, tiwa savage, blessing okagbare, agbani darego, etc. south afican men too ugly

NATIONAL DEFENCE COLLEGE SET TO GRADUATE PARTICIPANTS FROM 11 FOREIGN ARMED FORCES, 120 NIGERIANS ; 2014 INTAKE TO INCLUDE OFFICERS FROM 18 FOREIGN COUNTRIES INCLUDING INDIA, PAKISTAN AND BANGLADESH
Nigeria’s apex military institution, the National Defence College (NDC), Abuja, will next week turn out 131 officers, including 11 foreigners, so far the highest number of graduates since it began operations with 30 participants 21 years ago (1992).
The 11 foreigners are from Benin Republic, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Gabon, Ghana, Niger, Togo, Sierra Leone, Guinea and Brazil. The remaining 120 participants, all Nigerians, are from the Army (50), Navy (35), Air Force (24), two each from the Nigerian Police and Department of State Security and another seven from strategic federal establishments.
The NDC Commandant, Rear Admiral Thomas Jonah Lokoson, told journalists in Abuja Thursday that the College would expand the intake of foreign participants in its next Course (22) to 18. He said ‘They will come from African countries, India, Bangladesh and Pakistan and in the the 2014 Course (23), a participant is expected from the United States of America.
Admiral Lokoson said that the foreign participants are “a means of strengthening the cordial bilateral relations that already exist between Nigeria and each of the participating countries.” He added that participants are usually tutored extensively on the constitutional role of the military under civilian rule and the virtues of military subordination to civil authority.’Graduates are expected to remain resolutely focused on improving professionalism in their respective Services and never to be allowed to be used as instruments of disservice and disloyalty to our nation’s democracy.” http://beegeagle./

The fact that you single us out for special mention means that we have hurt your feelings.
Boko Haram has a recorded victory against Nigerian Military.
It is indeed shameful that gays like you that have been badly SHIBOBOed keep exhibiting your family diseases. You know nothing about bokoharam that you read through the net yet you wouldn't learn from those who see and know to cure your family diseases. IDIOTA!
Mike..ZA: Get this to your head: Nigeria has no experience whatsoever in conventional warfare. It would be fair to suggest that this,country(Nigeria) can struggle to defeat another country. Regarding you saying that the Special task force,has no current "success". They arrest a bunch Congolese man,in Limpopo last year planning to overthrow the DRC government. And i will say this again: Ni-gay-ria can't go on an all out conventional warfare,against another country. Cause that would cause a security vacuum,for insurgents to destroy your country from the inside.
You are FOOLISH, you smelly gay. Now that you've seen that your SAPS are a bunch of clowns, youre diverting the police arguement to military. IDIOTA!
