No, they cheer the 3 organizations that cleared up those wars.

Example: nigerian army involvement - 10 years no result

Executive Outcomes (South African) arrive - RUF annihilated, vast swaths of country captured in months peace brought to the land
US Marines Arrive - peace brought to the country in months
British Arrive - peace brought to the country in months.

Nigerias 10 years of combat operations is an example of just how pathetic your armed forces are. 8 Battalions of men, armour, attack aircraft, warships and all it brings you is 10 years of stalemate against a peasant army.

South Africans arrive and instantly defeat RUF with a handfull of men, a couple of attack helo's and some armour that they had to beg borrow or steal.

Show me where I said they werent. Show me where I lied.

They are mercenaries, they were by definition only in it for the money.

BUT

To get the money they had to defeat RUF

They defeated RUF in months

They did what the Nigerian Army could not do in a decade.

The point still stands.

and btw, your own source shows that EO were not the only mercenaries in town... Nigerians were up to their old tricks:

For Abacha and his cronies, the peace-keeping role has proven a godsend. Just as their regime has robbed Nigeria of staggering amounts of wealth, so too it has managed to turn war into a very profitable business. Nigerian business interests connected with the military have carved out a major role in Liberia and are doubtless pursuing a similar path in Sierra Leone. Others have grown rich through war profiteering, supplying arms, food, fuel and other supplies both to the ECOMOG forces and the various factions in the war-torn West African countries themselves.

[size=14pt]

I don't care about Wikipedia that any dummy can edit and I don't build my points solely on strange people who write up Wikipedia pages. Nigeria has Otomat Mk 2 according to military today expert information from an analyst who does research and is one of America's best military websites.

Nigeria likely has both Otomat Mk 1 and Mk 2 because two batches were delivered and the last delivery of 15 missiles was after Otomat Mk 2 was introduced into the market.

Different sources mention both, so we have to accept Nigeria has both, no source is a lord and master over the others.

Nigerian navy has Otomat Mk 2 missile with 180 km range .

Does not matter which Otomat you quote for Aradu even Mk 1 has longer range than Valour frigate Exocet missile.


NNS Aradu Otomat Mk 1 missile range 80 km

Valout Frigate Exocet MM40 missile range 70 km



NNS Aradu will sink the whole South African navy from 80 km away and South African navy will not be able to reply, they will first be speechless and finally lifeless.

No, President Ernest Bai Koroma heads Sierra Leones Army (with a Minister of Defence and a Brigadier Gen with a Brig Gen subordinate to him)
And President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf heads the Liberian Army (with a Minister of Defence and a Brig Gen subordinate to him)

Are Bai Koroma and Sirleaf Nigerian?

They are found in the fact that nigeria recently sent 850 troops to liberia.

And so?

We have over a thousand men in Congo, another thousand or so in South Sudan a couple hundred in Mozambique, Burundi and trainers scattered throughout Africa... troop deployments are troop deployments, it means nothing special.

Fact of the matter is that ECOWAS was (and is) a farce and were unable to defeat a motley RUF even with tanks, fighter jets, thousands of men, warships etc etc etc.... you even had to make use of local rebels to fight RUF for you... that is the depths you plumbed.

You are trying to turn humiliation into victory (as usual).

No, you only have one source sayinig you have Mk2

I have 6 sources that directly state you have Mk1.

Your only "source" is a website which in your "opinion" is "one of america's best"

My main source is a military journal, published every year, that is critically acclaimed by academics.

Fact: Nigeria only has Mk 1

Different sources mention both, so we have to accept Nigeria has both, no source is a lord and master over the others.

Show me all your "sources" that say you have Mk2.

Nigeria [size=20pt] likely[/size] has both Otomat Mk 1 and Mk 2 because two batches were delivered and the last delivery of 15 missiles was after Otomat Mk 2 was introduced into the market.

No it does not.

So basically: "in my opinion it is likely"

We dont want likely, we want FACT. Show us FACTS

Multiple sources boy. Not just one sentence from an article that is not even written about the Aradu.

You arent convincing anyone.

no source is a lord and master over the others.

6 sources are lord over 1 source.

Did you not go to university? Are you not academically trained? Are you incapable of an empirical argument?

NNS Aradu Otomat Mk 1 missile range 80 km

So you admit you only have Mk 1?

Also:

Wrong. It needs a data-link for that range.

Otomat Mk 1: first model, without data link, 60 km practical range, service from 1976
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otomat

Otomat Mk1: Unassisted range 35NM (64.2km)
http://www.harpoondatabases.com/encyclopedia/Entry2348.aspx

Conclusion: Aradu Otomats only have a 60km range

You have no data-link so the max range is unattainable for you (if your missiles were even fitted with data-link capabilities at all). If you want to claim 80km then show us:

1. Aradu has a data-link
2. Your missiles were fitted with data-link compatible hardware.

Our SSM's outrange yours. And we can shoot them all down with ease.

Finally, you dont even have a ship to fire them - Aradu is not operational

Case closed.

You have cataract blocking your eyes? Read my post again, I said Nigeria has both Otomat Mk 1 and Mk 2 since different sources claim both and there were two separate deliveries of Otomat missiles to Nigerian navy, 25 missiles delivered after Mk 1 entered market and 15 missiles after Mk 2 entered market.

No source is superior to the other, even SIPRI has been proved to make many mistakes about Nigerian weapons. Does not matter how many sources mention Mk 1 or Mk 2, and you don't have 6 credible sources. SIPRI is just one, Harpoon database and the Spanish website are the same as Harpoon copies the Spanish website, I brought those two websites to this forum not you, so I know their content is copy and paste of each other. Your 4th source is Facebook and only dummies will use Facebook as a valid military source, I too can open a new Facebook page for NNS Aradu and quote Otomat Mk 2 there, how about that? Your 5th source is Wikipedia and it is unreliable, last year it said Mk 2 then this year an unknown person changed it to Mk 1 so how do we trust it? I can go open Wikipedia now and change it to Mk 2 and quote Military Today website as my citation/source, how about that? Your 6th source is Naval Institute, a book that is old and never gets updated after it is printed and goes to market for sale, the pages you posted are old and outdated paper pages copied by google and uploaded. If SIPRI was a paper book sold to street buyers it will forever show that Nigeria has Su-25 Frogfoot jets delivered in 2013.

ALL YOUR ARGUMENTS ARE HEREBY DEMOLISHED.

As long as I have a world respected source saying Mk 2, my argument stands until Nigerian navy makes public declaration to the contrary.


OTOMAT MK 1 RANGE IS 80 KM

EXOCET MM40 RANGE IS 70 KM


Quote any Otomat Mk 1 or Mk 2, NNS Aradu has superior missile range over all South African navy warships. Fact !

Many modern missiles have data link inbuilt and linked to the launcher, data link is what a lot of long range missiles use to communicate with launch ship or aircraft.

Otomat Mk1 does not have data link for 3rd party communication with a helicopter, but has data link for 2nd party communication with the launcher warship as a long range missile.

Every country that has modern long range missiles has data links, it is nothing special. Don't fool yourself thinking data links exist only in South Africa, you must be grossly in.sane grin

You half brained South Africans should stop confusing weapon to launcher inbuilt data links with a country's armed forces inter- force communication data link for passing around information within their armed forces. They are two different things you dumbos don't know in your ANC prison yards. Fools grin

Show us proof that NNS Aradu is not operational as at today July 2014. Is a heavily armed frigate-destroyer supposed to be chasing pirates in gulf of Guinea? Why didn't your Valour frigates catch all pirates raiding SADC region around South African oceans?

Aradu has no war to fight and no work to do, she is NOT a patrol ship or OPV, so she was in reserve. Age makes her due for mid-life upgrade like NNS Thunder is much older than Aradu and so Thunder went through same process of mid life upgrade by US coast guards.

Aradu is in 2014 Nigerian navy published schedule list for full mid life refit and that is a standard proceedure for standard navy establishments worldwide, so Nigerian navy is not an exception. Most Nigerian warships you think are not operational are all now fully refitted and fully operational, yet the 2012 and 2013 information on all foreign websites still say they are not operational and may never operate again, yet those ships are now back in full force, NNS Siri and NNS Ekun are two such warships that exercised with Chinese navy frigates in Nigeria few weeks ago.

Around April a journalist asked the Navy Admiral commanding the fleet about the Aradu which the journalist claimed was grounded according to his own outdated information. The Admiral updated him immediately that Experts were already working on Aradu, nobody ever knew that fact until disclosed, and few weeks after that statement, NNS Aradu surprisingly sailed out of naval base to an undisclosed destination last month June.

Show us proof that NNS Aradu cannot fire it's 80 km range Otomat Mk1 and 180 km range Mk 2 missiles. Your opinion =/= Fact of today.

Otomat MK1 has a range of 60Km, unless you are suffering from a defect of the brain as a result of the screw that was not tightened well.

Stupid, the writer was doing a misinfomed research on MEKO class which both Argentina and Nigeria have. He probably consulted wikipedia which was wrong at the time to compare the armaments of both frigates and was completely thrown into the bush by the source.


Nigeria does not have Otomat MK2, that is merely a claim unsupported by many sources. Fact!!! Nigeria posesses psedo-Otomat MK2.

On MAN TO MAN FIST FIGHTING Naaigayrians are WEAK. I have seen Naaigayrian FLAT HEAD CAGE FIGHTERS DYING after fights. Their disadvantage is their FLAT HEADS and again fighting isn't about size but BRAVE HEART, being able to give and take PAIN just like SHAKA ZULU ( 2m tall warrior). grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin Again I contacted my HISTORY BOOKS and realised that history shows that Naaigayrians weren't hardy s[b]laves but "REFUSE SLAVES" as one British slaver said. Lourens quoted. For hard labour they preferred hardy Akan, Sene-Gambians,Angola/Congolese and few Yorubas, while they refused to buy LAZY IGBO MEN "REFUSE SLAVES".

Angola/Congolese were known for revolution and fighting back against slavers and were good slaves and known for STAMINA AND RESILIENCE. That resilience is seen today in CAGE FIGHTING. grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin Like their blood cousins in RSA, Zim,ZAMBIA etc.. theyr WARRIORS by nature.[/b] grin grin grin grin grin grin

[b]Boko Haram: Nigerian Soldiers are cowards – US General

The United States has said that the Nigerian military is becoming afraid of engaging the Boko Haram insurgents.

Testifying on Thursday before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the US Air Force Chief of staff, Gen. Mark Welsh III, said, “We’re now looking at a military force that is, quite frankly, becoming afraid to even engage. The United States doesn’t have the capacity, the capability to go rescue every kidnapped person around the world.”

The New York Times reported that the US might choose to minimise its involvement in the search for the over 200 schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram due to doubts over Nigeria’s military capabilities.

Saturday PUNCH learnt that the US had questioned the ability of the Nigerian military to rescue the girls even with international help.

The Pentagon’s Principal Director for African Affairs, Alice Friend, also said, “The Nigerian military has the same challenges with corruption that every other institution in Nigeria does. Much of the funding that goes to the Nigerian military is skimmed off the top, if you will.”

US officials have also said that its involvement had also been made difficult because Nigerian officials ignored past warnings to soften brutal tactics that only fuelled the Boko Haram’s insurgency.

At Thursday’s Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing, officials condemned the kidnappings and committed American aid to help rescue the girls. But they also expressed frustration at Nigeria’s political and military leaders for failing to heed Washington’s warnings about the extremist group.

“We have been urging Nigeria to reform its approach to Boko Haram,” Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Robert Jackson, said.

He added, “From our own difficult experiences in Afghanistan and Iraq, we know that turning the tide of an insurgency requires more than force. The state must demonstrate to its citizens that it can protect them and offer them opportunity. When soldiers destroy towns, kill civilians and detain innocent people with impunity, mistrust takes root.”

A retired Head of the US military’s Africa Command, Gen. Carter Ham, said, “My sense is that US Government will remain in a supporting role to Nigeria. I do not think the U.S.G. will seek unilateral action.”

The size of the Sambisa Forest is also believed to make the search for the girls difficult.

“We are basically searching for these girls in an area that’s roughly the size of West Virginia, so it’s a tough challenge, to be sure,” state Department spokesman, Marie Harf, said on Thursday.[/b]
