Henry120: First, we have 5 in service Second, you are comparing different classes of IFV Third: - yes its exactly 8kph faster - you have yet to prove this - how does it have better awareness than a vehical with 360 day/night sensors - prove it. - You do know that the gun on the badger is the most advanced in the world? - Patria is combat tested. - Your amphibious vehical is only protected against 7.62. Our non amphibious vehical is protected againts 30mm AP rounds. Which would you want to be inside when you are being engaged by a boko haram 12.5mm HMG? - we can drop armor off the patria and make it amphibious in anycase. No contest. Never was. Never will be. And on that note, I am off for the night. Enjoy the jealous rage. |

mzilakazi: No European country builds an IFV in year 2008 with old window tech, BTR-4 has sensors, TV, video screen for remote 360 degree view of the environment, windows are for drivers and only when he wants it, he can cover up the armoured glass with armoured steel window covers and use his computerized TV screen to drive or target enemies. You are just a foooooool locked up in soweto cage .

mzilakazi: Badger does NOT have the amphibious tech of the Patria. BTR-4 has double armour version and it still maintains amphibious capability. Badger is a dry land only IFV . 2 Likes |

charlos14: Thank you. Don't even think lucky hit, a sniper can use a 2km range sniper rifle, anti-material rifle, or automatic grenade launcher to destroy that Badger camera as it is too exposed like the horn of a cow hanging on the top of the Badger just like that, sniper snipes it and Bagder goes blind, and no windows to back up visibility. Bagder IFV is a bad design, I will score a cheap hit, don't even need any luck to sniper burst it's camera balls . 2 Likes |

patches689: That map was drawn without proof of validity and before Shekau II was killed by the great Nigerian army. Today, Boko Haram is shifting to Cameroon as Nigeria gets too hot with T-72 tanks and BTR-4 IFV ! Boko Haram in now leaving Nigeria and attacking dozens of towns and army bases in Cameroon, killing Cameroon's soldiers in dozens ! http://www.cnn.com/2014/12/27/world/africa/cameroon-boko-haram-attack/ http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2014/12/29/392242/boko-haram-attacks-cameroon-villages/ . 1 Like |

DieVluit: The globafirepower rankings is TOTALLY flawed, it ranks Condo DRC above Uganda that has SU-30 MK Flankers, 100 T-90 Tanks, 1000 Anti-tank missiles all latest versions of Russian weapons, Congo DRC needs a whole United Nations to help it secure the country from M23 rebels. What kinda ranking is that? South Africans are a nation of 50 million fools that cannot use their blocked brains to challenge a foolish source all because the source is posted on internet and can be quoted by weblink, foolish Southies ! . 1 Like |

patches689: I need sources to prove the long list of lies you wrote above. The only truth there is that you confessed Badger is inferior to BTR-4 because Badger needs a heavy and long bridge to cross a river SANDF has no SINGLE Badger IFV in service today, or can you prove it? Show me a Bagder in SANDF control, I am posting below a BTR-4 in Nigerian army control. [size=16pt]SANDF has NO SINGLE Badger IFV in service toady, dream until year 2020 .[/size] 2 Likes

patches689: We are comparing version options of Badger, Patria, BTR-4 in general. I didn't say we bought morta version, but yes it exists for sure among BTR-4 options. Nigeria has at least 30mm cannon BTR-4, South African army has NO SINGLE Badger IFV in army armoury, can you show me one? I just showed you a Nigerian army BTR-4 photo inside our army armoury above, so your SANDF has NO Badger . 1 Like |

agaugust: Who said that amphibious ability is the main criterion for an IFV? If anything, not being killed by an 12.5HMG is more important And I have allready posted a Source saying that we have 5 in service |

agaugust: Production starts this year - fact, proven with citations 5 are in service, 16 on the way - fact, proven with citations You have yet to provide any evidence to show that the BTR is in any way superior. Badger is: - better armoured - better armed - better optics/electronics - mine protected - carrys more men - has a longer range - more adaptable and versatile - has a better combat record - amphibious |

patches689: Avoiding civilian casualties causes delay, towns that have Boko inflitration are under our Recce and all surrounded. Nigerians can drive in T-72 tanks and Boko cannot stop us, but we are planning civilian casualty minimization. Nothing can stop our T-72, proved !

patches689: America has current amphibious IFV in service, and they are fast developing more with very advanced tech to match Russian amphibious IFV. Stop comparing America and South Africa, they are far far very very far above your low class. What Badger armour? It has protection only against small arms fire, RPG will tear Badger IFV into pieces when your dream probably comes through and you buy it in year 2020. By that year the Badger design is already outdated....15 years long waiting period will kill it's technical relevance in 2020 SANDF is cash broke !!!! . 1 Like |

patches689: Fixed periscope implies stationary, it doesn't rotate. Would it be operated manually as they might not be enough space for the operator to move about therefore rendering your 360 degree situational awareness useless unless some old chap is cranking trying to find the target. Badger has no backup systems until further prove is shown. 1 Like |
