Henry120: Here's a quote from the CAS confirming the T129 helicopters Another technology that falls within the NEC, he said, is the T129 attack helicopters, which we are trying to acquire now, and once the pilot is on flight with the forward looking infra red, he does not need to come back home before striking. As the enemy is being detected, he gets directive to continue the strike, and that makes the strike easy. 1 Like |

patches689:The Nigerian Airforce is in the process of acquiring TAI T-129 ATAK Helicopters. |

xwolverine: Thanks man, the T-129 is the sort of helicopter we need. An Advance Helicopter well suited to our Hot climate. |

[size=13pt] patches689: Nope, fact is 56 T-72 M1 tanks from Czech republic only. A total of 200 T-72 tanks ordered by Nigeria, 65% delivered according to president Jonathan. T-72 AV tanks ordered from Ukraine....confirmed by Ukraine's minister for defence : "Previously there was no information about contracts on delivery of such armaments to Nigeria. However, the information about the repair works of T-72AV at State Enterprise “Lviv Armor Repair Plant” appeared in September 2014. Concerning the BTR-4E, it seems that small part of 42 BTR-4E APCs batch designed for Iraq, was sold to Nigeria, after Iraq refused to accept them. On March 26, 2014, Ukraine’s ex-PM Yulia Tymoshenko asked the Security Service of Ukraine to investigate the sale of military equipment to foreign states during the time of Russian military aggression against Ukraine. She also noted, that she had the information about the preparation of delivery of T-72 tanks and BTR-4E APCs to Nigeria. Valeriy Heletey, then-Defense Minister of Ukraine, refuted some part of Tymoshenko’s statements, while confirmed the existence of a sales contract between Ukraine and Nigeria. “The contract was signed during the presidency of Viktor Yanukovych, and in case of inability to fulfill this contract, Ukraine will be obliged to pay the penalties.” – said Mr. Heletey. http://info-news.eu/ukraine-delivered-t-72ab-tanks-and-btr-4e-apcs-to-nigeria/ [/size]

jln115: Show us source that SANDF inducted land based Umkhonto missile into service. You don't know the difference between weapons in service and weapons in manufacturers test laboratory, I have never seen a foolish white man like you, are you a school drop out? You think like a fisherman that works daily on a canoe . |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 1:49pm On May 08, 2015 |
jln115: Show us proof SAN has ordered Meko 100 OPV or at least a meeting with the Germans offering it to your navy. |

jln115: Umkhonto land based is NOT yet in service, every SANDF man here on nairaland has confirmed that. Never inducted, stop fooling around, that's how you trap yourself in arguments that embarrass you in the end. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 2:07pm On May 08, 2015 |
agaugust: Where does it say anything about 200? Official number is 56 end of story |

agaugust:Ok so who owns those vehicles with SANDF number plates? |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 2:09pm On May 08, 2015 |
jln115: The Hull might be old, but that boat is africa's most advanced High endurance vessel. It comes with a state of the art "Rmfac" (spelling incorrect) and an advance radar/ data link system which allows for seamless communication between the ATR, land Operations center/ surveillance systems , commandos and vessel. The boat also got an 8.5 million dollars overhaul before transfer. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 2:09pm On May 08, 2015 |
agaugust: With a speed of 34knts, a small crew of 45 men and a range of 7400km it is very well suited to its role. |

agaugust: You mean the same way we just started building our own missiles for our jets? Why would we buy 100's of missiles only to replace them all in less than a decade? 14 gripen operational at any one time = 14 pilots Deal with it |
