Nope, you have ONLY ONE Ratel IFV mounted battlefield surveillance TV.

Come back to us when you have 5 like Nigeria....we even have more than the 5 in photos.

All those radars you list there wasting your time, are short range toys....a 10 km radar is new to you? Village man.

We don't need long story, radar is all about detection and range, long story of it's electronic wiring and engineering construction is none of our business.

Long range ground search radar, Nigeria has mobile land and air RASIT with 40 km range.

Then our Shilkas are over 30 units, their radar tracks both ground and air targets with range 20 km .

Roland we have another 16 units with radar range up to 18 km .

50 radars already for Nigerian army, all mobile, all on armoured vehicles.

66 years ? SANDF and about on par in battlefield ground surveillance.

Then our own mobile TVs are latest models, your are old


"The ground surveillance radar DR PT 2 “Rasit” was introduced on the armoured personnel carrier. It has a maximum detection range of about 8 km for pedestrians with military equipment, to about 40 km for vehicles and helicopters.


Maximum speed: approx. 90 km/h
Operating range: approx. 800 km

Radar coverage: to 40 km

Crew: 4

Armament
1 Machine Gun 7.62 mm"

Sorry man, I think you are confusing Nigerian army with Chad's rag tag obsolete army outdated to 1966 level.

[size=15pt]FIRST:

You didnt read the link?

Your system:

The ground surveillance radar DR PT 2 “Rasit” was introduced on the armoured personnel carrier "fox" in the German Bundeswehr in 1986/87. It has a maximum detection range of about 8 000 m for pedestrians with military equipment, to about 20 000 m for vehicles and helicopters.
http://www.radartutorial.eu/19.kartei/karte414.en.html

Our system

Thales Squire man-portable system, which was ordered for Cytoon, can plot a pedestrian at 10km, a vehicle at 21km, a tank at 28km, a helicopter at 21km, a boat at 12km and a ship at 48km, Thales avers. Because it uses a frequency modulated continuous wave Doppler radar, the Squire is also virtually undetectable to hostile electronic warfare experts, it adds.
http://www.defenceweb.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=25861:cytoon-handed-to-the-army&catid=50:Land&Itemid=105

We have 14 such systems. You have 2-3

We win, ours has longer range and is stealth.

Your Shilka's are not ISTAR - our equipment is. And is data-link capable meaning instant transfer of info to artillery.

You want to talk about Shilka?

Lol - try our 4 units of ESR220 Thutlwa with 120km range, or our Umlindi AR3D long-range radar of 500km or our Plessey Tactical Mobile Radar (TMR)

Again, you lose

Yes, for instillation security

Not for deployment in high intensity combat

Our mobile air radar will set up a massive 500km air umbrella for each system

Our mobile ground systems will set up 14 different zones where everything within 40km can be detected and fire co-ords instantly sent via data-link to artillery and air units

You have no way of competeing - your little soft skin vehicals dont compare to SANDF ratels and their 20km observation cabailities!!

You always said last year that Nigeria has NO SINGLE T-72 tanks....Ignorant mumu grin grin

Ok, lets do some math.

The Thales surveilance radar has a max range of 40km, in a circular area.

This means that each single radar can cover an area of 5026 square kilometers.

We have 14.

That means SANDF can cover an area of 70364 square kilometers with percision and undetectable ground search radar.

That means we can cover a country with an area of Sierra Leone, Ireland, Georgia or Sri Lanka with such radar.

You hear that? That is the sound of your a**hole getting torn apart cool

Their armor is their stealth

Their mobility is in the fact that they can fit on a mans back.

Can your RASIT sneak ontop of a hill? Can it hide in some bushes?

Their job is not to fight - it is to hide and watch.

RASIT is a big peice of metal that is easy to detect - ours radars can detect you from 28km away, you can only detect our radar from 8km away.

That says it all.

What are the combined radiu's of each system? Break it down for us, show us how you came to your conclusion.

That 70364 sq km is just the Air-Ground search of our 14 Thales Squire Systems.

Do you want me to work out the combined total of our air-search systems?

Also, without a data-link and without systems fusion you cannot accuratly moniter across all systems - you cannot see the entire airspace at once.

With our data-link every single system is intergrated - a commander can see the whole airspace on one screen.
