mzilakazi: There is no list of countries that buy BB shell, you go to war assuming your enemy has it, or else you get deleted by artillery. BB is unguided shell and nobody records is ownership worldwide. A country that buys $200 million worth of Bofors artillery will afford a few thousand dollar BB shells. SANDF is a non profit organization, DENEL is a profit making business corp, it does not donate free weapons to anybody. Mokopa was not ordered, means SANDF needs to order and pay for weapons from DENEL, why order and pay to buy what you claim you own? You did not finish secondary school brah, you have zero knowledge of business and global economic principles, it's people like you that wrecked South Africa after Nigerian forced your white-masters to hand over a great nation to you, now you reduced that nation to a place that needs illiterate Somali refugees to teach you how to run a small spaza shop in your own homeland.....shame ! . 1 Like |

agaugust: There is no countries VLAP list as well, simple. Denel is owned by SA government which SANDF belong. What is in Denel store indirectly belong to SANDF. The military will use it in times of war, that's why what is in Denel stock is regarded as SANDF invisible weapon inventory. |

jln115: Interesting, your South African experts agree that your data-link of Gripen jets and Olifant tanks CANNOT save you from Boko Haram. "A common thread among speakers was that having a main battle tank, a Gripen fighter and frigate all data linked together will have no bearing when fighting an asymmetric force such as ISIS or Boko Haram. Using local knowledge and thick jungle, rebel forces can move a hundred vehicles through three countries in one night, undetected.

Nigerian military are true Napoleons to have defeated Boko Haram that crosses back and forth from Nigeria to Cameroon, to Chad, to Niger Republique at random, and at night, even dressed as civilians ! The day SANDF faces an enemy in the class of Boko Haram , the world will laugh SANDF to scorn, mumus who cannot defeat Rhino poachers inside Kruger park . 1 Like

agaugust: How sure are we that Nigeria has BB from just an ordinary shells. Nigeria is no special here since it cannot be proven that they have BB shells. We just only making uninformed conclusions that maybe they could be having BB shells. Denel has VLAP rounds and have been tested. Denel does not have to sell them to other countries to prove that they have VLAP. |

agaugust: Again. You dont even understand your own link. They are very very correct. "Cold air contracts, becomes more dense, and thus heavier than warm air." Very correct. The part that you will never ever understand is that fact applies to air at the same pressure. When you open your fridge, the cold air sinks to your feet because because it is denser/heavier than the warm air around it. But...the air pressure in your fridge and surroundings are the same, thats why that happens. Air at very high altitude on the other hand is at a much lower pressure than at sea level. Hence it will not be denser than air at sea level, even though it is colder. I asked...why do jet liners need to be pressurized when flying at high altitude? The air there is much colder than air at sea level. So according to you, it must be denser than air at sea level. So why do they pressurized commercial jets? Can your mind even grasp that question? I told you, you are out of your intellectual depth. This argument is not for you. You have no clue what you are talking about. 4 Likes |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 4:35pm On May 13, 2015 |
agaugust: What exactly do you want to tell us about cold and warm air? We know that warm air is less denser than cold air but that does not mean that air on the lower altitudes is less dense than the air at higher altitudes. |

agaugust:Dude whats your point? When did i say a Data-link will provide an advantage when fighting an asymmetric force? South Africa basically invented Gorilla Warfare during the Boere War, we are experts in the field! The fact is an enemy like ISIS or Boko Harm will never be allowed to gain such power in South Africa as they did in Syria and Nigeria, They wouldve been destroyed before they knew they even existed! 4 Likes |

mzilakazi:Some of the new hardwares we purchased{including REVA MRAPs,Gazelle helicopters and even SAMIL multipurpose heavy trucks} were new to the inventory,therefore,we needed relevant skill in operating them,but the problem was: we had no time to learn,it would take weeks{at minimum} to even learn how to properly navigate an armed gazelle!. The SA PMCs were learned in operating these hardwares mainly because some of the logistics were south african made hardwares. Hence,the south african PMCs were mandated to assist our air and land forces in operating some of the new equipments on the battle field until such a time that we mastered them ourselves,this may have included flying of helicopters. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 7:13pm On May 13, 2015 |
EVarn: Those are the lies which your government fed you. The PMCs were contracted to kill BH and to train your elite forces. They had the contract to fight with them hand in hand in battle area. However, Barlow said his men were always the first to launch attack. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by saengine: 7:37pm On May 13, 2015 |
What is so difficult about driving a Reva MRAP? Especially for troops who have driven similar vehicles before? You needed weeks and weeks to show you where you start it and how to turn the steering wheel? They needed weeks and weeks to learn how to operate its machine gun? Reva has no high tech systems such as laser guided missiles. Eben Barlow set up, and trained Nigeria's 72 Strike Force. Why couldn't the mighty Nigerian army set it up on its own? How can a PRIVATE COMPANY set up, train and deploy an entire operational unit within another country? Very few things are more embarrassing. Like i said before, it should be called 72 Strike Force Pty Ltd. Maybe they should list on the stock exchange as well. 3 Likes 1 Share |

agaugust: The South Africans helped you fight Boko Haram, so how will they turn into a laughing stock if they defeated BH just in three months time when your army took six years. Boko Haram will never survive in SA. We are definitely not a rag tag Nigerian Army. I say again, poachers are not a terrorist group and neither are guerillas. They are criminals just like bank robbers. No one can stop robbers to exist, there will always be robbers and thus poachers. Poaching is a crime and not a terrorism. Tell the poachers to confront SANDF, the same way BH bravely challenged your army. Tell them to arm themselves and attack or ambush SANDF and see that their existence will come to an end sooner than expected. 1 Like |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by saengine: 9:37pm On May 13, 2015 |
agaugust: Did i say army? I said operational unit. Learn to read. 120 men is a big unit...trained by a private company. Embarrassing. You see how your brain skips many details when you are desperate? Let me school you with an example. Small units of special forces in deep penetration missions do not drive around in tanks and use artillery, but they are still highly effective with only their rifles. So effectiveness of a unit is not directly proportional to it having tanks and artillery, it is directly proportional to that unit's specific mandate. Do teams of special forces make up an entire army? Are they not still effective? Before you say 72 SF is not special forces, again...this is just an example. Again, a PRIVATE COMPANY developed, trained and deployed an entire operational unit within the Nigerian army. Embarrasssment of the highest order. 72 Strike Force Pty Ltd 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 9:57pm On May 13, 2015 |
agaugust: You reason exactly like my son. In actual fact, anti poaching is not even the responsibility of SANDF, it is only helping. Rhino poachers are just like robbers, they commit opportunity crimes. Whenever the opportunity comes they strike and kill a rhino, just like robbers would rob the bank. Nobody would ever stop crimes of robberies, same as poaching, you can only control it. Moving rhinos to Botswana was a security strategy as it was thought poaching was an inside job. However, the rhinos are back home and new strategy of electronic tracking and surveillance is now perfectly working well to reduce poaching by over 50%. |
