mzilakazi: The defence review that calls the military HIV ridden, and with the oldest Infantry troops in the world. About that review, the document was completed in 2004, we are in 2014, 10 years on, you guys are still parrotting a non-existent review. Goodluck with that, day dreamer. |

bidexiii: So, if it is still under development it cannot be sold? You are still an amateur in matters of defence. Industries in defence do not make production in advance unless they receive an order because it might be risky. Defence industries do not run business like car manufactures. Cars are always in demand while fighters are not due to the cost involved of procurement. |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 8:39am On Nov 20, 2014 |
Henry120: That's untrue, the defence review committee was convened in 2012 and was tabled before the parliament this year in 2014. http://www.sadefencereview2012.org/publications/publications.htm |

ActivateKruger: Nah,!!! their air force is currently struggling to convince the government to procure squadron of scorpion fighters with the view of procuring more in future. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by ActivateKruger: 8:44am On Nov 20, 2014 |
mzilakazi: Sources say they will be getting 12 JF-17s from Pakistan end of November.... So much for the Su-30 |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 8:45am On Nov 20, 2014 |
Henry120: In that instance, go and tell your chief is wrong which I know they can. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 8:48am On Nov 20, 2014 |
ActivateKruger: I thought you were referring to the source which I attached. By the way, SU-30 is better than JF-17. |

Henry120: This guy doesn't even know when the reveiw was written or tabled And yet feels entitled to comment on it!?! Have you even read the document? And implementation of then reveiw has already begun if you look at budget allocations for new equipment |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by ActivateKruger: 8:55am On Nov 20, 2014 |
mzilakazi: Yah, agububu was bragging about how their generals will acquire the Su-30 for their air force... It turns out they purchased the JF-17 and its only 12 of them. |

patches689: So when was the defence review originally written? |

mzilakazi:. you are the amateur here ! So are u telling me u can go for a military hardware that is still under development even wiThout knowing its flaws, u ar a funny dude !There is a defference in a military programme still being developed and a known and tested hardware used but it's not in stalk ! Millions of dollars r in stake here ? The NAF needs an immediate battle proven jets,that is already in production . In the future they might go for it but not now ! 1 Like |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 9:09am On Nov 20, 2014 |
Henry120: Your 8 pilots only came from a source which was spread by DA shadow minister of defence who cannot sit in defence meetings other than in parliamentary portfolio committee. However, his assertions were lies after all. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 9:21am On Nov 20, 2014 |
bidexiii: The fighter is no longer in development. It has passed its prototype phase and is ready for sales. Come on man, it is just a low cost light aircraft nothing big about it to go stage after stage as if it will be carrying stealth weapons. |

Henry120: Your airforce Chiefs and Janes are both credible sources The defenceweb artical is based on quotes from both Typical nigerian, any media outlet that says something they don't like is either "not credible" or "propaganda" 2 Likes |

bidexiii: The guys who developed the scorpion said when they unveiled the plane that they were in advanced talks with the buyer The plane is fully operational They equipment you put on it is off the shelf So yes, the second it was certified to fly in civilian airspace it was ready for sales Hence why nigeria is desperate to buy them 1 Like |

patches689:. NAF is not desperate to buy them, of a truth we need fourth generation jets to back up CION in the north east but @ d same time we will take our time to get d best,affordable and serviceabilty jets money would buy we,ve learn't our lesson from the jaguar sepecat . That was what I was telling someone what earlier this morning on the thread if no much country are not showing interest that means in no time they might be force to stop the production and making spare -parts rare! You would,nt want to fall into such situation the scorpion jets its new they started 2013 and right now on the U,S.A air guard is showing little or no interest and just of recent nigeria ! |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 11:57am On Nov 20, 2014 |
bidexiii: First, you dont need 4th gen. You need a CAS platform that is rugged and cheap. This is the Scorpion Second, the Scorpion is made by Textron AirLand, a massive multibillion dollar company that is not going anywhere. Third, if your lawyers have any skill, the deal to buy them will include multiple clauses referring to complete life-cycle support for the platform. Fourth, the Scorpion was not designed for US needs. Its in the same catagory as the AHRLAC. Target nations are those that need CAS and ISTAR but dont have the money for advanced multi-role air-frames. Nigeria falls squarely into that category. Finally, you need them NOW. There is a war on and you have no CAS platform that can deploy precision weapons. Inter-state deals for weapons acquisitions can take years to get underway - for example we placed our Gripen orders in 2000 and the first batch arrived only in 2006, the last batch only in 2011. 2 Likes |

bidexiii: 4th generation fighter will take you over seven (7) years for any Nigerian trained pilot and navigator to fly and combat effectively with that machine. It takes time to master weapon system, avionics, manuevrability, countermeasures and weaponry of 4th and 5th generation fighter machines. By that time, insurgency would have ravaged your country. |
