Your own source says so:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvZjxq3kYSs

This is boring, its too easily to debunk your pathetic arguments.

Hell, its gotten to the point where you are humiliating yourself!!*

*I seriously cannot beleive that you just tried to tell us that air at high altitude is more dense than air at low altitude!! grin grin grin grin

Quote where I said that.

I didn't even bother to talk about density of air at high altitude, all I said was and is that the snow in the photos tell you that you cold air on Himalayas mountain and cold air is heavier than hot air, I proved that with a source that gave example of golf ball shot that travels same parabolic movement like artillery shell, the golf ball is slowed down by heavy air on a cold day. Simple physics your Soweto brain will never know until I told you today.

Now the Indian army video NEVER said what you claimed, the army Bofors artillery officer said range is 41km at altitude, simple.

The officer did NOT define it as low altitude, medium altitude, or high altitude.....there are 3 levels of altitude and all of them above ground/sea level.

You are the one who personally claimed that the man meant high altitude because you want to twist the information to commit fraud as usual.

Also the army Captain did not specify what is at altitude, the gun or the target far away.

He just said "At altitude". Finish.

You are the one changing the analysis to high altitude, gun sitting on mountain top where there is snow and nobody can climb, then Bofors is heavy artillery too heavy for Indian helicopters to sling airlift.

@Patches, learn to accept defeat as you are a sunk ship already

[size=16pt] Biggie Fool [/size] grin

Artillery shells don't go straight up in the air 10km high ! The barrel is not vertical, it is inclined only, fool grin

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 grin

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.

South Africa imported science teachers from Nigeria, now I see why your country came begging us to help improve your brains grin

# Show us how cold mountain air increases artillery shell range when it actually slows down the shell grin
.

Augusust.

You have been defeated.

Stop wasting my time.

The gun itself is sitting at 6000m above sea level in the Himalya's. The air is half as dense there as it is at sea level.

The gun gets longer range at high altitude, according to the same Indian army officer you have quoted many times.

Such high altitude is only acheiveable in the Himalyas

Dude, you are making a massive fool of yourself at this point. I recommend that you accept defeat.

@Agaugust, to put this simple is that, altitude is any position above sea level. If then your gun is not at the perfect altitude you may not be able to achieve the range of 41km.

I showed you a Bofors Fh77 in the Himalayas

The average altitude of the Himalayas is 6000m above sea level

Ok, if you insist:

agaugust:


Show me a source that says Bofors artillery range increases by a whole extra 10km in a heavier cold mountain air !


Its pretty clear that you think air at high altitude is more dense because it is cold... the irony that you have been bragging about superior nigerian education is too much for my sides

Now the Indian army video NEVER said what you claimed, the army Bofors artillery officer said range is 41km at altitude, simple.

[size=15pt]This is a lie[/size]

at exactly 2:36 in the video he says "at high altitude areas the gun acheives a maximum range of 42.3km"

The officer did NOT define it as low altitude, medium altitude, or high altitude.....there are 3 levels of altitude and all of them above ground/sea level. You are the one who personally claimed that the man meant high altitude because you want to twist the information to commit fraud as usual.

He defined it as "high altitude areas"

Thus he meant high altitude.

As usual, you are the one who is commuting complete and utter fraud

and, as usual, when losing an argument you claim every-one else is commiting fraud, acting like you are some honest victim

You have been completely and utterly exposed in every way

You are the one changing the analysis to high altitude, gun sitting on mountain top where there is snow and nobody can climb, then Bofors is heavy artillery too heavy for Indian helicopters to sling airlift.

Indian army has the Chinook - the Chinhook can sling the FH77 with ease.

They also have roads in the Himalaya's.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khardung_La sits at 5,359m above sea-level
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsimik_La sits at 5,777m above sea-level

This means that they can drive the guns up to where the air is half as dense as it is at sea level

It does not need to be on the top of a mountain when the average altitude of the Himalaya's is over 6000m above sea level - it simply has to be in the mountain range.

This has been a wonderfull few days for me, I have broken Augugugbgugug and exposed his lies on a day to day basis.

[size=15pt]The Truth Comes out!![/size]


[size=13pt]Nigeria's military has been cooperating with various vigilante forces in the northeast for more than a year, often relying on civilians to do the bulk of the fighting against the insurgents.

Witnesses said it was vigilantes who recaptured the symbolically important northeast town of Chibok from Boko Haram at the weekend, with troops staying clear of the heavy fighting.[/size]

I say again, Nigeria's contribution in both WW1 & 2 is non-existent. SA fought alone to defeat the Germans in Namibia and colonised the South West Africa as a result. We fought the Italians also. Nigeria's contribution in Angola is speculative and hence amount to fallacy. Nigerian forces were very afraid and scared to see SADF to the core.

"paltry contribution"

You mean the total of 231 000 South African men who fought in the war?

Dude, just as an example, where the 1st (South African) Infantry Brigade inflicted over 7000 casualties for the loss of only 2 500 men and is largely credited with the destruction of one of Germanys best divisions (9th Division)
