They not stealth. You can see the mast has straight lines and flat sides. The're are flat surfaces and clutter every where. I would give her a 50% reduction. Yes small but far from tiny. Not to menstio she has no reducstio in thermal.
Please find them. To make you halt I will even post close up shots of her.
I posted pics of her, spoke to her crew, meat the Chinese people sailing with and can confirm she is not stealth. Sure not big on the radar. But stealth she is not.
No augugbugug - it is a civilian grade life raft installed on a military ship because as usual Nigeria is unable to impliment systems properly.
No manufacturer specs say that it is invisible to radar - none at all. Simply looking at the design you can see that it is not stealth - all that deck clutter.
Finally, that is not a video of YOUR OPV being sea tested - that is stock video from a propmotional video for the vessel. No missiles were tested on your vessel, and it is not modular.
Your vessel is not a warship - so stop trying to promote it as such
[size=16pt] Now South African mofos, go home and drink your own urine !
NNS Centenary P18N is a stealth warship invisible to radar at distance.....and modular design tested in sea trials to fire missiles that can be fitted only if needed when war arises
Argentina and Uruguay have expressed interest in buying the combat module of the Nigerian navy stealth ship ![/size]
"During an interview, Major-General Yin Zhuo made particular mention of the vessel's stealth performance.
On the stealth performance of F91, Yin Zhuo pointed out that the ship's bows lean slightly inward, and bevels are superimposed on the upper part of the deck; as a result, the radar reflection points are few and the radar image is small. He pointed out that an 1,800-ton ship with stealth capacity will have the radar reflection area of a ship of about 500 tons; it can be discovered only when it is very close to the radar of enemy, and cannot be observed if an appropriate distance is kept from the enemy radar."
You were just google searching random stuff and general info, this transaction is special .
You were not smart enough to know the T-72 M1 sale was Russian made tanks gathered together from several different armies of different countries of origin and sold to Nigeria by a Czech company ......you are a dumbo domingo that cannot analyse a complex transaction
"Soviet-made tanks T-72 M1 and 16 other vehicles, BMP armored infantry fighting vehicles and rocket launchers to an African country, its spokesman Andrej Čírtek told the paper. Čírtek said the heavy arms come from sales of redundant equipment of the armies of the former Warsaw Pact countries. Czech Defense and Security Industry Association head Jiří Hynek confirmed that the destination is Nigeria."

Valour class has the radar cross section of a missile patrol boat so well done, your tiny corvette has managed to be as stealthy as our huge missile armed frigate - what an achievement
And your stealth ship is pumping huge plumes of IR fumes into the air from its funnels
finally, the statement is nonsensical - your man in china says it has the stealth properties of a 500t vessel, yet somehow at distance it becomes invisible? do all 500t vessels become invisible at distance?
Please stop posting stock promotional footage of actual Type 056 Corvettes firing missiles from a promotional video. Yours has no such capabilities, i have already posted the original video.
Its ok, your Navy is poor - we get it. Maybe if all Nigerians are good this year Santa will deliver a real warship
About 14 of SAAF 26 Gripen jets are redundant, and also 44 of the 46 units G-6 Rhino artillery, and about 1,000 units of Ratel IFV, Rooikat TD, and MRAPs of SANDF are all totally redundant in cold storage according to defenceweb....means all those your Gripens and army equipment are bad and should have been sent to scrap metal yard for waste disposal.
Yes - and supply convoys require hundreds of trucks
But now tell me- what will be used as APC's if your MT-LB's are running supplies?
How much capacity does an MT-LB have? How will it transport the stores?
Olodo, supply convoy varies with the size of forward troops it is to resupply, the front line forces could be a platoon or battalion size, supply need varies with size, some truck convoys are just 10 vehicles not hundreds.....fool
Cobra, VBL, BTR-70, Mowag are all amphibious and will become APC, we have over 500 units of those APCs apart from IFVs....fool
MT-LB is built as muti-role including supply transport for 2,000 kg of cargo, you don't have such amphibious transport in the whole of South Africa, and you will NEVER own one in your dry land only army.....fool
"Description. The crew, a driver and a commander/gunner sit in a compartment at the front of the vehicle, with the engine behind them. A compartment at the rear enables up to 11 infantry to be carried or a cargo of up to 2,000 kg. A load of 6,500 kg can be towed. The vehicle is fully amphibious, being propelled by its tracks in the water."
I won't waste time with a fool like you, no more replies, case closed....you are stuck with a dry land only SANDF that Mandela built in error .

. [size=16pt]South Africa in electricity supply crisis, begins to copy Nigerian technology !
Goodluck Jonathan shows Mandela's people how to draft national energy policy o ![/size] .
The Federal Government has started installing electronic monitors to check the vandalism of gas pipelines as part of measures aimed at ensuring regular power supply, the Minister of State for Power, Mr. Mohammed Wakil, has said. He expressed confidence that the recent privatisation of the power sector would soon yield visible results, noting that South Africa was already emulating the exercise, which he described as a model for many other countries.
Wakil said this on Saturday in an interview with journalists in Abuja.
The minister said in due course, Nigerians would soon be taking power supply for granted.
He said, “Power supply will become what Nigerians can take for granted. We are expanding investment in the transmission sector through the involvement of the private sector.
“The distribution companies are investing in system upgrade, like South Africa is about to start. The generation companies are busy with the upgrade, especially after the administration had addressed the gas-to-power issue. We are installing electronic monitors to check incessant vandalism of gas pipelines by enemies of the nation.” Wakil said South Africa was emulating the Nigerian privatisation model for the transformation of its ailing energy sector.
This, he argued, was a vindication of the durability of the policies and programmes of the President Goodluck Jonathan administration.
He said the crisis rocking the South African power sector had necessitated the country to draft a power sector privatisation bill now before its parliament.
The minister said, “Nigeria has become a model for power sector reforms in Africa. A bill, almost like our 2005 Electricity Sector Reform Act, is in the works in the South African parliament. We must commend President Goodluck Jonathan for this.

Dundeee Domingo Block-Head !
All Gripen are operational
Defencewed does not differentiate between equipment in storage and equipment in use by reserves - i have posted citations of 2 batteries of G6's being used by reserves at exercises for example.

So first you said 1000 now you say 500?
Ok, so it can carry 2ts of supplies - how many supplies does a brigade consume per day? An US armored brigade consumes 195,000 gallons of fuel every 12 hours - so thats 390000 gallons per day, which is 1 476 310.6 liters, meaning that your MT-LB's will need to make 11356 round triper per day, per vehical to keep it operational.
Thats just an example, and that is just fuel - even if you consume 1/3 of that, its still 3785 round trips per vehicle per day (157 round trips per hour).
And now lets think about spares, ammo, men, food, equipment etc

90 million Nigerians have never seen a working lightbulb
Nigeria produces less than 3% of the power South Africa does
Working light bulb?
Every Nigerian that gets power cut in load shedding has a back up from personal electricity generator, diesel or petrol powered at home, one of our 100 watt light bulbs is brighter than your 1,000 Johannesburg candle lights joined together
3% of what ?
You make a big mistake, Nigeria's PHCN federal government power generation only is the 3,000 to 4,000 MW you guys always post here.
There are many private companies and state/provincial government owned electricity power stations generating extra electricity under NIPP policy, some of those NIPP power plants produce independent 200 MW, some 500 MW, some 1,000 MW.....those supply power to big industrial areas and special non-industrial zones....you always miss those out....Fool

Badluck Jonathan must go and bury his flat head on the sand. There is nothing privatization of energy sector in SA. We are up against privatization and your President has all audacity in the world to deceive his people that SA is privatising its energy sector. Chief, that idea was denied long ago even the people of SA do not want capitalist to have anything to do with giving us power. Jonathan is just so wishful and as such he should just run and throw himself in the hell fire because his wish will never materialise.

Sorry!!! President badluck Jonathan.
its 'in the sand'....secondly ur president cant compare to GEJ.....ur president who thinks he can cure HIV by sleeping with virgins.....are u mad?
So when you climb onto a ferry which travels from one end of a lake to another....you technically have not crossed the lake unless you get into the water and get wet? Nice logic
That is a picture of SA Army engineers executing a Ratel water crossing. You can deal with it and make peace with it however you like.
Perhaps? Unfortunately there are none! Not one! Keep romancing your hollow cranial cavity for all you care! You desperately want a taste of our impending success by hook or crook! SA will never ever come close to real COIN battles. Those your so called mercenaries are busy looting foreigners' shops across Soweto. Keep waiting to see Phantom mercenaries ... of course you'll never see any!
One thing for sure is: Nigerian-led MNJTF are in full swing ... doing our thing steadily.
Do you think SA does not have intelligence? Warrant of arrests have already been issued for a number of people who left the shores of this country to Nigeria to work as mercenaries in training the troops of that country and fighting BH. It is well confirmed baba.
This bogus link shows a Malian soldier as a Nigerian soldier and states on "the border with Libya" The Author of the article is as stupid as his reader (Mzilakazi)
mzilakazi: [size=16]Would there be any war on terror if we would not have imposed our believes of democracy onto other people. Countries which mostly have equal number of Muslims and Christians will strongly have to come to the realisation that one group cannot unjustly subject other group onto their believes, be it politically, economically or socially. We just have to sit down and face reality that the cause of Boko Haram is supported by many Muslims than we can ever think of. They keep on dying in action yet they never cease to exist. When will any country in the world ever act as an example and establish a caliphate of their own without having to let blood of the innocent to shed. Will we ever see any peace reign in the world? What is the solution?[/size]
the solution is to remove the pesky indoctrination called democracy,and insert a dictatorial government across the world.let muslim people live in their caliphates and let the christians live in their nations.
