Patchesagain: No, you are the fool that thinks artillery shell range increases because the gun is 'on a mountain top', how does it climb ? Even ordinary hills of Gwoza Nigerian light artillery could not climb, now heavy artillery will climb up Himalayas mountain? fool ! At altitude means the target is on high land and you can see the shells landing on target, nobody tows artillery to mountain top, Bofors is driven by Scania vehicle, like a truck, it cannot climb mountain and helicopter cannot airlift Bofors artillery, so how does it leave army based and climb mountain ?

Patchesagain: Quote where I said that. I have always said 18,000 at border, and 4,000 at frontline. MPLA was 120,000 after bush war in year 2001. In bush war they had 70,000. Cuban figures are disputed between 25,000 to 60,000. Average is about 40,000, add MPLA 70,000 you get 110,000 not 140,000 . 1 Like |

agaugust: O my gawd Dude, high altitude means the gun is fired at.... you guessed it... high altitude Shells achieve ultra-long distance ranges there because the air is thinner, hence lest resistance to the shell in flight. This is basic high-school physics. You should know this. I have allready posted a picture of a Bofors in the Himalaya's, where the average elevation is 6000m above sea level - high altitude This is pure desperation on your part, driven by the inability to comprehend even the simplest things 1 Like |

Patchesagain: Physics ? You ? South African ? Science ? You boxed yourself into a corner, see all your posts with no source to proof, no citations. The real physics is that cold air on high altitude is heavier and gives more resistance to the shell and slows it down, cold air is a dense harder matter for shells to travel through, your science is crappy from your South African crappy schools ![]() ![]() "Cold air is much heavier than warm air and this is the basis for much of what we call weather. You may have heard that a baseball or a golf ball will travel further on a warm, humid day than it would on a cold, dry day. Since the warm, humid air is less dense, the ball travels through it with less friction." http://www.weatherdudes.com/facts_display.php?fact_id=51 Nigerian education beats South African education again as usual, your SA schools are rated only for beautiful buildings You are stuck in a position of defeat and self humiliation @Patches ! Show me a source that says Bofors artillery range increases by a whole extra 10km in a heavier cold mountain air ! . 1 Like |

agaugust: [size=15pt]congratulations on embarrassing yourself augugbguggug. [/size] Air at high altitude is less dense than air at low altitude If the entire mass of the atmosphere had a uniform density from sea level, it would terminate abruptly at an altitude of 8.50 km (27,900 ft). It actually decreases exponentially with altitude, dropping by half every 5.6 km (18,000 ft) or by a factor of 1/e every 7.64 km (25,100 ft), the average scale height of the atmosphere below 70 km (43 mi; 230,000 ft) In summary, the mass of Earth's atmosphere is distributed approximately as follows:[23] 50% is below 5.6 km (18,000 ft). 90% is below 16 km (52,000 ft). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Earth#Physical_properties Meaning that the air in the Himalaya's is half as dense as the air at ground level - this allows the shell to travel further You see, my South African education has been proven to be superior to your bush-school education. This is basic, primary school, knowledge we are talking here. Knowledge you seemingly dont have. South African Education > Nigerian Peasant Education 2 Likes 2 Shares

agaugust: Nigerian education is nonsense and is inferior to SA. Air at high altitudes is less dense, that is a simple geography from primary school education that an MBA graduate could not solve. My son would have answered that question without any difficulty. @Agaugust at high altitudes, oxygen (O2) which is heavier than other molecules of gases that make up composition of air is less. Hence, molecules of Oxygen are more concentrated on low altitudes making it easy for humans and animals to be in reach of it. So, mister Agau your Nigerian education is up to scratch, no wonder many Nigerians study abroad including here in SA. http://www.altitude.org/why_less_oxygen.php http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/weather/wdensity.htm 1 Like 1 Share |

Patchesagain: [size=16pt] Biggie Fool [/size] ![]() Artillery shells don't go straight up in the air 10km high ! The barrel is not vertical, it is inclined only, fool ![]() If gun range is 20km and it wastes 10km climbing up the sky like an aero plane, the gun loses half it's shell travel range and falls down wasted half way before reaching target. Your quote applies only to aeroplanes that fly 10km to 20km altitude, not artillery shells that do not even reach the clouds in the sky ! South African education is 100 years behind Nigeria ![]() Cold air is all over Himalayas mountains because of snow, I live in snowland and snow is all over my house and yard now as I write, the air is heavier than normal warm terrain and it creates friction/resistance to vehicles we drive through it.

agaugust: Unfortunately, Nigerian teachers can only teach in government schools teaching disadvantaged students who could not afford private education. Density of Air is dependant on several factors such as temperature and altitude. The higher the temperature the lesser the density of air. The higher the altitude the lesser the density of air. However, the opposite will result should we apply the low temperature and low altitude. In short I remain appalled by some of the details that you have written above, since you failend to give proper explanation which is free of ambiguity. I do not believe you can even understand what you have written. In conclusion, Nigerias education is a flop 3 Likes |
