jl115: If a poorly defended base and 6 APCs for 850 troops is proof....... Then you are right, he did. Not only do N.A have a properly defended base in sudan, they also have NAF MI-17 and Super-puma for transport. 1 Like

patches689:Ah! You're back from pap-break. Patches, I'm going to slap you hard across your meaty face!! Who's talking about objectives,eh, internet lawyer? Your SANDF was beaten black and blue into a retreat after severe losses they had to seek safe passage to flee. Your troops were defeated spectacularly. 2 Likes |

Henry120: You posted no pictures or info about base defenses. You have only seen pictures of our COP and not our FOB Oryx operate in the Sudan Our peacekeeping base in Sudan is better defended and secured than yours which is on the frontline in Nigeria Your men in Nigeria face massive problems with supply and logistics A case in point was the initial deployment of our troops to Darfur in 2004, where the Nigerian contingent was deployed without the full complement of their requirement - Arinze Ngwube, Nigeria’s Peace Keeping Role in Darfur |

EVarn:Yes. Insurgents typically use radios during attacks to report and coordinate. Your officer won't hear that if his doing basic infantry stuff. |

Henry120: “We fought very hard for one and a half days. They had very good weapons and very good fighters,” said corporal Mohamed Tahir Several of those interviewed bore battle scars, including bandaged heads, feet and limbs. The rebels said the SA troops made it “very, very difficult” for them to take the town and sweep president Francoir Bozize from power. The fight put up by the SA troops was so ferocious he believed they were facing over 400 men – almost double the actual number. “They had every kind of weapon that they were fighting against us with – heavy weapons,” said Tahir. “It was a very difficult battle. We lost more than half of the the men only in my unit of 500 men.” http://www.timeslive.co.za/thetimes/2013/04/03/sa-soldiers-carved-us-up-say-rebels - written by Stephan Hofstatter and JAMES OATWAY in Bangui

patches689: Uniform does not win you a war. Seleka has no standard uniform, but they defeated SANDF in less than 24 hours battle, many of them wearing just jeans and T-shirts, they drove out SANDF wearing special expensive cam uniforms, and a lot of boxes of spare SANDF uniforms were abandoned by the fleeing Soweto army. If Seleka wears SANDF uniform tomorrow we all know how they got it. By the way, that incident means SANDF special uniform is now readily available for sale in the black market of Bangui ![]() ![]() . 1 Like

patches689: Not according to the evidence I have. We may not be as equipped as the American military, but sure as hell..... We are miles better protected than the less than rebel SANDF. Your men only have 6 APCs for 850 men, if that isn't poorly equipped/ massive logistics issue, I don't know what is. 1 Like |

Henry120: Again, I ask: Who says we only have 6 APC's? Dude, if you are lonely and want someone to talk to go to the social section of nairaland. I am not here to keep you company. The SANDF COP is something Nigerians could only dream of, compared to your poorly entrenched position, with ammunition strewn about the place in haphazard fashion, men who dont even have a uniform, rusty old AK's no communications equipment and foreigners operating your equipment for you 3 Likes

patches689: According to Reuters, BBC, and the UN. "A source with the United Nations in Bangui said the South Africans had asked for assistance from French forces to help them leave the country." http://mobile.reuters.com/article/idUSBRE92M0AU20130324?irpc=932 "Bangui - South African soldiers in the Central African Republic are seeking safe passage to the airport after taking heavy losses during fighting with Seleka rebels, Reuters reports." "Amy Martin of the UN's humanitarian agency, OCHA, told the BBC World Service that the SA troops had retreated to their barracks and were seeking safe passage to the airport." "Seleka spokesperson Eric Massi said the rebels had broken through a line of South African soldiers during their push into the city." |

Henry120: Ok, and this proves what? That 200 men were overwhelmed by a larger force? Who said they were trying to even stop that force in the first place? How were they defeated? What objective did they fail to meet? You can post it over and over, but the fact that you cannot answer simple questions shows that you have no real argument. |

patches689: Nigeria is not a hollywood and internet photo army, our tank crews have coveralls and standard uniforms including standard tank crew headgear/helmet with communications attached. The fact that they don't show it all in open photos does not mean they don't have it. Grow up dude, how much does a T-72 tank cost? About $ 2 million for a tank, then you think a mere $300 coverall uniform is too much for Nigeria to buy? We even sew and make those uniforms in NA factory in Lagos. Fool of Soweto....see Nigerian scorpion tank crew below in large numbers with full tank crew uniforms and tank crew special headgear that has both communication headphones and face protection visors all included.....world class Nigerian tank crew !
