Henry120: It gets uglier with every picture you release

ActivateKruger: That photo you are laughing at is the first prototype Igirigi I APC prototype, the final product is reasonably different. The first Rooivalk helicopter gunship prototype is an ugly vulture. Sniper rifle will be wasted by Igirigi, then watch the Igirigi turn a 12.7mm Browning HMG on your sniper location and the sniper will meet his ancestors that day. Nigerian defense industry is more advanced than Algeria or Ethiopia, only Egypt and SA can compete with Naija defence industry on this continent of Africa. No other 100% black nation in the world has done what Nigeria has done. Igirigi II APC ![]() . 1 Like |

Henry120: So we see the Igirigi was designed to be intentionally ugly. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 2:08pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
ActivateKruger: Point been, it is by no means ugly.

ActivateKruger:i aint igbo,but i know that igirigi can be translated as "feared storm" or "super stormer".so whats mzilakazi? |

Henry120: When we say beautiful, we aren't talking about sleek. Look at the hull of the Igirigi for example. Is it beautiful to you, as in, does it look functional and do parts fit together nicely? Does it look like shape and form work together? Look at the hull of the South African APC, with the V-hull shape and the like. the V-Hull offers protection and you can see it when you look at the APC. You can see that attention was paid to dimension, height, the reduction of roll-overs - beyond ballistic protection. That's beautiful.In the same way that you'd say a rifle is beautiful. The Igirigi is ugly from front to the back.

EVarn: Tactical maneuver that made 450 soldiers vanish into a Cameroonian jungle for days..... What about last week in Mubi? The general even got hurt while speeding his Toyota away from Boko Haram. |

ActivateKruger:Pictures and specs please. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by ActivateKruger: 2:13pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
EVarn: Sorry I lied.. Do you want to know what Mubi means in my language instead? |

agaugust: Wishful thinking that all it is, you can't even make a rifle. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by DieVluit: 2:17pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
Henry120: Henry, this thing is ugly. No reviewer passionate about APCs would get an orgasm writing about that. |

Frankenstein: Dude, you are slowing down the class. This info is basic knowledge on the thread. In fact, it's all over this thread and the net. Below is the Mamba APC. Ask the Americans about it.

DieVluit: Does the Igirigi have a V shaped hull or not? |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by DieVluit: 2:21pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
Henry120: Then you are even MORE daft because I was explaining to you what beautiful means. Is the Igirigi is the same class as a rifle? Because I also made that example. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 2:21pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
agaugust: NTW with the 20mm barrel will punch right through it and through the one next to it. Nigerian defence industry does not compete with South Africa, you have nothing which even compares to what we make. Rooivalk is an advanced peice of hardware - Igiri is a armoured car. There is a difference 100% black nation is irrelevant. 1 Like |

Henry120: Of the things that I listed to explain what "beautiful" means, why ask only about one? Why not ask about dimensions and everything else that I listed by way of example? I've got NO DOUBT in my mind that you read the whole post and that you know what I mean when I say you could say a rifle is beautiful. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 2:22pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
ActivateKruger: Ode, Chronoes studious did the animated design and testing of the vehicle. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by DieVluit: 2:24pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
Henry120: Animated design? Are you serious? How does that prove anything? |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 2:26pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
DieVluit: It simply means you shouldn't you bloody dummy. The vehicle you posted is an 8x8 and heavily armoured. The Igirigi is a 4x4, much in the same class as the Otokar Cobra 1, Cobra 2, and every other LAV in the market. That is what you should make a comparism with. You claim to have a brain, now use it. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by ActivateKruger: 2:26pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
Henry120: The Igirigi is in no class of any armored vehicle |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 2:27pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
Henry120: A simple V-shaped hull is 1970's tech (pic related) Does it have blast funnels? Is the engine block and suspension designed to absorb the impact? Is the interior designed to prevent spinal injuries to the crew when the vehicle is hit? Is it specially designed so that a side-impact will not roll the vehicle over? Your first attempt at an MRAP is cute, keep at it for another... 40 years and you will be where we are today. 2 Likes

EVarn: This technical maneuver thing is nothing but a cowardice. By the way, maneuvering is tantamount to fleeing. that's English of trying to lessen something more embarrassing seem more acceptable. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 2:28pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
DieVluit: How many photos have I posted on this topic? How many are animated, and why did I bring in animation into this discussion? I want you to answer. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by ActivateKruger: 2:28pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
Henry120: Do you want to see my IFV animated design I did in 2008? hahahahaha useless argument. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 2:29pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
Henry120: And the Cobra 1 and Cobra 2 are both pretty average vehicles. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by DieVluit: 2:29pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
Henry120: You are an id1ot, Henry. Class is irrelevant. How BEAUTY works in APCs is what matters. That's what you asked and that's what I showed you. Even if I'd put up a picture of an APC in the same class as the APC (although that would be an insult to that APC), you still would get the same post. Deal with the post and stop playing for time. The igirigi is ugly in the way I explained in my post. Deal with that and leave the irrelevant stuff for another day. You protested that APCs aren't made to be beautiful and I told you what we mean by beautiful. No reason for confusion. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by ActivateKruger: 2:29pm On Nov 05, 2014 |
by the way, my own IFV looks way better than the Igirigi. |
