You need new eye glasses? The Nigerian photo shows 2 knee mortars, one with no tripod stand, it leaned on the other one with tripod stand and the stand is all set up as simply collapsible, does not need set up time.

The other knee mortar has NO tripod stand, it sits on the small base plate.

The problem is that you don't know mortars get hot after sustained firing, then your SANDF cannot fire any more, Nigeria has the option of quickly connecting the collapsible tripod stand in a matter of seconds and keep firing even when mortar gets hot.

Our own version is an improvement over your old school type.

You need to upgrade, you are stuck with an old world war II knee mortar design
.

Didn't you see the handle on the patmo?

Never looked at it that's why you can't see the differences.

Henry120:


Lol.......... indeed they are, indeed.

A random photo of some pilots now equals Gripen pilots.

You only got 8 qualified SAAF Gripen pilots. This is the fact.

You've got 2 pilots.

Henry120:


You should start by training pilots for your Gripen first. 8 isn't actually a number to be proud of after 15 years.

Back to your 15 years claim?

SAAF pilots are well trained. What was the kill ratio during Lion effort?

Henry120:


If we wanted to, there local Nigerian companies which can build vessels upto 110 meters in length.

Here are armoured catamarans built for the Nigerian military.



To your question, that's South-Africa's worst Nightmare.

Lmao.

Possible OPVs for project Biro: All of the following Shipyards have shown interest in Project Biro, and all of the mention OPVs will be build locally.

Pic 1: Veecraft Marine + Navantia (Avante class 3000)
Pic 2: Damen Shipyards (Holland class OPV )
Pic 3: Southern African Shipyards + Germany’s Lurssen Werft (K 130 )
Pic 4: DCNS + KND (Gowind class )

What is Your Favorite?

You forgot Turkey.

Henry120:


Looking for shipyards for 17 years. Goodluck with that.

And who said anything about "looking"?

agaugust:


Are you the one personally buying OPV for South Africa? Abeg show us official source....oh ! Wait....the OPV South Africa dreams to buy has NO NAME....because they will buy NOTHING.

Come to Lagos ask Naija navy to let you borrow 10 Stealth Combat Catamarans for free
.

That's because companies will bid.

But what you should know is that: 7 FRIGATES.

This supposed soldier doesn't know a thing about weapons how shameful.

Well we all know: Nigerian soldier=Rebel

For your yeye mind you thinks say you sabi anything? The day wey I go talk about Naija weapon for here ... that wan be say I don become civilian.

A test of a military officer is not in how wide s/he opens the mouth to talk military weapons and strategy online. Try something else little MikeZA. I know what I know. I can even offer you a compendium of all SANDF's shiny little toys!

SA weapons that you know are the ones found online, you won't find much about tactical jammers etc.

Remember: Cuba, FAPLA etc tankers' communication radios would strangely not work when coming into contact with saffers.

Officers?

How many Nigerian Senior officers have been killed by those little devils?

Would forget Lieutenant Colonel Agu stealing women clothes to disguise himself. Escaping combat.

Somehow under no pressure from me, you concede that "I know" (see boldened part of your comment above), yet I have never discussed weapons with you!!

I don't need to impress numbskull South Africans like you with easy talk about weapons. I simply know what I know and my knowledge is best utilised for my job than for ranting online with MikeZA the troll.

The day the knowledge will be utilised will be the day your spineless SANDF is misguided into a military confrontation with Nigeria. Very simple.

agaugust:


Manufacturer confirms it, y.ou are too d.ull to do research.




Another victim of poor research skills in Shout Afrikaa. Let Nigerians help you as usual :

The Nigerian catamarans have MINIMUM RADAR SIGNATURE, the barest minimum to avoid detection by enemy radar

http://pdf.nauticexpo.com/pdf/northseaboats/x-38-power-catamaran/25886-6675.html

South Africa can only dream and never buy a stealth catamaran like Nigeria, and we can put missiles on them if we want !

Sorry buddy but my source is directly from the manufacturer, thus by default its the most accurate.

As things are standing, Col Agu has been called up to stand a military trial in association with other officers after their car capsized while they were on the run on a yet another failed mission to rescue a captured Nigerian town.

Turkey?what ship are they marketing?

Idle talk!

No sense is ever made by South Africans each time you do your funny brain-farts!! Your mission in Bangui ended right after you bolted to the Airport for French protection! Your cheap white-coloured Mr. Price pant is still hooked to the twig with which SANDF made their famous surrender as you lost men in the lost battle of Bangui!!

Oh...I see they are marketing their ADA class Corvette.

These OPVs should be fitted with Umkhontos and ship-to-ship missiles, they will make a very lethal combination with the Valour frigates.

I think SAN should opt for an IPV and OPV Package from Paramount, i mean their 87m Gowind class OPV and 42m Trimaran look out of this world.

As i proved and said before, ill say it again, it was never our objective to protect bangui, we were there on a training mission,thus very lightly armed,Just like it was neither the French duty to protect bangui. Are you know stipulating that seleka defeated the French too, by taking Bangui.

Thing is South Africa needs versatility when it comes to big ticket assets such as naval vessels

Our OPV's and IPV's need to be swing-platforms (multi-role) that have the ability to police our waters and those of our neighbors (what we need them for now) but also have the capacity to be outfitted for conventional operations (ASW and Minehunting mainly) which means at the very least they need to be able to defend themselves

The 87m Gowind is slow, and has range that is impressive but not outstanding (10 000km) and mediocre autonomy, lightly armed (since the Denel Dual Purpose 35mm gun is not deck penetrating it could be fitted - but that would be its sole significant weapon) and of limited use in ASW (it would have to have a towed sonar aray, which means that it cant deploy depth charges, and a lack of torpedo tubes means it cannot engage subs at all and would have to work in tandem with a Valour class) so that at most means that its "swing-role" would be a mine hunter, as the rear ramps could probably be easily adapted for the deployment of AUV's.

And i dont think i need to explain why an 87m 1500t vessel would not be a very good minesweep

That being said, the space for a complement of 35 marines and ease of deployment of boats (under 5min up to ss4) is very nifty and makes it (IMO) the best contender for as a pure law-enforcement asset, despite its slow speed. Its ability to house a 6t helo means that the Lynx will fit, which is another big bonus

Its gunna be super interesting to see what we get

Yet, I hardly hear you critising few black people who live in Europe and America and still command lot of wealth to themselves. Really, you are suffering from obsessing about race. Anyway, I understand you are living in a country where whites have extinct like dinosaurs.
