agaugust: They have been putting rockets and guns and missiels on the MI17 for years. It is still a transport with wepaons straped on it. The more wepaons the less effective a transport you have. The orxy are rather modern and have another upgrade pending. It is cute how you try and make your stuff better than what they are. I all so wonder if nigeria is going to employ russian doctrain with there new russian choppers or follow western doctrain of the guys that are training them. And a orxy can perfom a host of roles to from transport, air assult, medi vac, maretime support and EW. 1 Like |

Henry240: That does not mean they can get apache's. Sure they would be allowed to buy them. But does there defence requiments need a decated attack chooper, can they afford to buy, fly and maintain them do they have other pressing needs that out weigh the need of attack choppers. Rember we talikg about a country that fly second hand Israly Kirf fighters. They could not afford a dedcated attack chopper. Instead they make do just like SA made do with the alloutt III before the rooivalk. 1 Like |

andrewza: Mi-17 Hip is NOT Mi-171s Terminator . Same way MiG-21 is NOT MiG-31. Your Oryx does not carry any guided missile, same way your Rooivalk does not carry any guided bomb by specs. Go kiss a frog with your ancient outdated 1987 Oryx helicopter that keeps rotating in a recycle factory . 1 Like |

agaugust: MI17 termnator is still a MI17. Just like a F18 supper hornet is still a F18 And your MI17s don't carry any guided wepaons either. The rooivalk on the other hand is fully ingrated with the nokape and minstral missiels. Just zero need for them. If how orxy are outdated then MI17 is a musseum piece. 1 Like |

Henry240:They're capable of carrying out attacks,similar to the Lynx. But aren't effective. The USA(the first country to build a dedicated AT helicopter) used the Huey transport helicopters,strapped with rocket pods for the attack and escort duties first. This was found to be less effective,that's when the Cobra attack helicopter was developed and fielded. From Russia to Algeria Hinds are being replaced by a dedicated attack helicopter,in the form of the MI-28. 1 Like |

NaijaPikinGidi:Your point? That man isn't a soldier,even if he was I wouldn't have been proud if he retaliated. The SANDF deployed forces around CAR to carry out operations,and pave the way for an AU peacekeeping mission. Your armed forces are fighting for the sovereignty and unity of Nigeria.

MikeZA: [s]That man isn't a soldier,even if he was I wouldn't have been proud if he retaliated.[/s] My point exactly. SANDF personel are not soldiers. And I can see why you're all proud of SANDF's running away from CAR!! SANDF will always LICK their wounds and That clip captures the very weak nature of your SANDF. I can't imagine a man being beaten to pulp and by no means managed to defend himself or neutralise the violent body bounding. [s]The SANDF deployed forces around CAR to carry out operations,and pave the way for an AU peacekeeping mission.[/s] Bloody liar! You were there to rip-off CAR along side Bozize of precious mining resources. You forget that AndrewZA's version was that SANDF were there to train CAR soldiers. Which version is correct? Your armed forces are fighting for the sovereignty and unity of Nigeria. Very correct!! For once you have truthfully stated this well-recognised fact. [s]While SA and our allies from Uganda,Tanzania,Malawi,Kenya etc we are PROCTECTING AFRICA.[/s] In deed ... SA is under the protection of Nigeria ... Tanzania, Uganda, Malawi, Congo, Kenya!! Don't forget Nigeria's General head the AU military setup! Now run-off before I unleash those two angry South African women to beat you to size! #stupid 1 Like |

LaBellaMafiaZA: Ada's mother took them to a village township. not a city or or urban settlements. that's where most people who have been away for that long go to since family will always be there. imagine a person who grew up in banana island, vgc, lekki wuse, maitama or any nice suburb in Nigeria relocating or visiting soweto slums or the poor and underdeveloped parts of SA. or don't you have such places in SA? just like i will never imagine moving to or visiting SA because of the way and kind of environments i grew up. it would be too low for me i swear. you guys really need to be more logical when you reason. it's a pity. 6 Likes |

NaijaPikinGidi: First, men dont hit women. Rule 1 of being a man. Second, SANDF has no men under AU command. Third, Nigeria was unable to form a rapid response force like South Africa. Which means that you are under our protection. |

Henry120: Written by a Janes Correspondent who cites numerous NGO's as his sources Seleka confirmed the casualty claims - here is the news from CAR that you asked for. “We fought very hard for one and a half days. They had very good weapons and very good fighters,” said corporal Mohamed Tahir of a battle in the capital Bangui that he took part in, which left 13 South African soldiers and apparently hundreds of rebels dead or wounded. The fight put up by the SA troops was so ferocious he believed they were facing over 400 men – almost double the actual number. “It was a very difficult battle. We lost more than half of the the men only in my unit of 500 men.” - Tahir Captain Amin Nodjokama described it as “big, big battle – it was very hot! It took a long time and the fighting was very heavy with a lot of dead and wounded on both sides”. http://www.timeslive.co.za/thetimes/2013/04/03/sa-soldiers-carved-us-up-say-rebels there you go, you have the names and ranks of seleka fighters who corroborate our story 3 Likes

Patchesagain: You can go redecorate your Oryx interior, it is still a 1987 air frame and function design, helicopters have advanced since 1987 era. SAAF is many years behind NAF, or Mi-171s is a year 2002 design and is brand new, keep sulking with your ancient helos. Better go replace them when you have money in year 2030, for now SANDF is broke, @Andrewza is at risk of retrenchment . |
