Kurganets IFV Boomerang IFV with a 30mm cannon T-14 tank

Henry120:Do you have any specs on what the ballistic protection of the Kurganets and Boomerang is like. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:05am On May 05, 2015 |
jln115: Specifications are generally not out. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:09am On May 05, 2015 |
patches689: Based on what is currently known, the T-14 is the best Tank in the world. Leo2A, K2 and chally 2 are behind it. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:11am On May 05, 2015 |
Henry120:Ok cool, will be interesting to see how their armour stacks up to that of Western products. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:15am On May 05, 2015 |
patches689: Exactly. That's why I said foreign deliveries would begin in 10-15 years time, with India, venezuela, Algeria and Azerbaijan leading the pack. The Kurganets is not a BMP-T. BTR-82A's are very impressive IFV's. They'll most probably serve with the Boomerang and Kurganets in active service. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:15am On May 05, 2015 |
Henry120:Didn't you JUST say specifications are generally not out yet? Im not saying its impossible that it could be the best tank in the world, but to make such a conclusion with almost 0 specifications is a little bit preposterous don't you think? 4 Likes |

jln115: We'll have to wait and see. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 10:17am On May 05, 2015 |
Henry120: I will ask again. What evidence do you have to support this ludicrous claim? Its capabilities are nothing special and are in service with multiple pre-existing tanks, its protection unknown, its FCS is unknown, its gun and projectile types are unknown, its performance is unknown, everything apart from what it looks like and general capabilities are unknown. This is just another example of your mindless obsession with Russian equipment. You say its the best because it is Russian, that is all. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 10:18am On May 05, 2015 |
Henry120: I never said the Kurganets was a BMP-T Boomerang was created to phase out all existing wheeled IFV's. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:20am On May 05, 2015 |
jln115: Yeah, generally, but tit-bits of info have always been in the open. From the bits I've read, it is very promising. Besides, that was my personal opinion. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 10:21am On May 05, 2015 |
Henry120: From what you outlined the Russians have just released a tank that has the same capabilities as other MBT's that have been in service for years. Its only really unique feature is the unmanned turret. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:24am On May 05, 2015 |
Henry120:Jap, but making claims like that it would be recommended to say that that's your own personal opinion, because it sounded like you were claiming it to be fact. 1 Like |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:24am On May 05, 2015 |
patches689: Isn't my conviction enough? My gut feeling. Some of it's known capabilities can be found in tank A or Tank B or Tank C. The T-14 brings in all of them into a single Platform. This is why it's so bada$s. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:28am On May 05, 2015 |
jln115: I mean, what the fvck is "jap"? ![]() ![]() Like I said it's general characteristics aren't yet known, and some of my comments are my opinion. |

MikeCZAR: Show me source that F-7 jets ever had shortage of pilots or went into storage like Gripen jets have double trouble patches689: Defenceweb, your respected source says your government minister declared SAAF FROZE A DOZEN GRIPEN JETS IN ICE.... "Twelve of the South African Air Force’s 26 Gripen fighter jets are in long-term storage, according to defence minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula, as the Air Force does not have the funding to fly them." http://www.defenceweb.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=29831:a-dozen-saaf-gripens-in-long-term-storage&catid=35:Aerospace&Itemid=107 Anointed Fraudster . |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 1:22pm On May 05, 2015 |
patches689: Pictoral evidence of Mokopa from DENEL laboratory existed since years ago when SAAF never ordered them. Even Rooivalk photo shows the testing. Means produced by DENEL not purchased by SAAF. Your poorly armed air force has NO SINGLE air to surface missiles. I like the colours of those rubber duds you posted mounted on Rooivalk, never knew dud Mokopa is so nice at the air show marketing display . |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 1:25pm On May 05, 2015 |
patches689: We have heard all these stories of sales for years. No single F-35 is in full service anywhere in the world.....NOT even 1, then you talk about 3,000.....LOL....na you go pay for the jet? . |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 1:27pm On May 05, 2015 |
jln115: The don't even fly at all. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 1:29pm On May 05, 2015 |
jln115: Why don't you post a current source that says Mokopa has now been ordered. Mumu ! |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 1:33pm On May 05, 2015 |
agaugust:Wait .....What? Please explain how we can have 14 fighters operational but 5 of them are not operational? As i said before, you lack common sens. 1 Like |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 1:35pm On May 05, 2015 |
agaugust:SAAF paid more than half of the R& D, so they basically bought the Mokopa when they started developing it. 1 Like |

jln115: Can you explain how Nigeria has 11 F-7 and only 3 are operational....you have common sense? |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 1:43pm On May 05, 2015 |
jln115: That's how DENEL collapsed financially twice and needed government cash bail out. Nation of fools. Cannot run a company economically. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 1:48pm On May 05, 2015 |
agaugust:Dude just because you have 11 F-7s doesnt mean all of them are operational, I have proved that we have 14 operational Gripens and 12 in Rotation, so yes you need 14 pilots to fly 14 plane, or am i wrong? You on the other hand have yet to show that NAF has more than 3 operational F-7 fighters. Ill say it again, you lack common sense. 1 Like |
