agaugust: France would smash the christ out of Algeria. The french have a massive technological advantage, and they are professionals. So yes, you guessed, and you guessed wrong 2 Likes |

Henry120: Nigeria and south Africa have no real use for large semi-stratrgic lift like the an-70 or a400m - the acquisition of either will be an end game objective, not a capacity building objective We can only afford them in small numbers that limit any real strategic warfare It is more practical to develop a fleet of light transports to supplement existing medium lift rather than blow budgets on large platforms that will be extremely inefficient to use in peace time and will not provide any real strategic lift capabilities for quick reaction operations in wartime - their only real use will be for the slow buildup of forces that is synonymous with peacekeeping A large fleet of light transports to supplement existing medium lift will remain more beneficial for either military - this has been confirmed by the USAF And your dislike for the A109 is starting to seriously irritate me - I suspect you dislike it because one nation in particular operates a large number of them and your dislike for that nation is clouding your judgement |

Henry120: Algeria is really going big, If they had a strong local defense industry like the one S.A has Algeria would be a very formidable Force probably more powerful than Egypt. With a defence industry like the one S.A has Algeria would definitely invest ten times more than what we do. They would be unstoppable. |

patches689: one thing i realy dislike about your opinions (not you) is that if it's not western it's not professional. it is flawed and amateurish reasoning. and you guys should always try to see reasons instead of tackling an opinion based on personal grudges for someone. if there was to be a war between france and algeria it would be close to algeria. and except france will get help from it's western allies, france does not have the capabilities to wage such a war far from home and against a formidable force like algeria and expect to win. that's a fact. fighting militants is not same as fighting a well armed conventional military. Technology only gives an advantage but does not guarantee a win. during the algerian/morroco war, morroco had advantage in advanced weaponry and were well supplied by the west, while algeria which barely had a military back then could not be defeated despite taking more casualties. one thing i know is that the algerians can fight and are well disciplined. France defeating algeria (if they go alone) is a dream IMO. it'll surprise you that even the rafael will be retreat after a few have been hit with algerian s-300. and who told you algerians are not well trained. did you conduct the training? or is it because they don't train with your western demigods? i'll like to know. cos you south africans make it seem like france fighting a country like algeria will be like a walk in the park. 3 Likes |

stillchris: Algeria has a conscript army Thus, by definition, they are not professional France is one of the few countries in the world was blue-water force projection - in-case you forgot, they have a full blown carrier as well as 7 amphibious warfare vessels ( 3 Mistrals to Algerias 1) so they can very easily fight that far from home. Much is being made of Algeria's air defence network - what you fail to realize is that it will quickly be eroded by french warships slinging cruise missiles and the French airforce employing their Storm Shadow cruise missiles from over 300km away and later their AASM Hammer munitions. Algerias S300 stocks are not unlimited. Algeria will be bombed into the stone age before the first french planes come within the 200km range of the Algerian S-300PMU-2's. Algeria's 44 SU-30's wont stand a chance against against Frances ~100 Rafaels, the rest of the Algerian airforce wont stand a chance against the 124 remaining french Mirage 2000's. Now lets talk logistics: 1. Algeria is in range of French Rafaels based in France (with aerial-refuel) as well as Mirage 2000's based in France (aerial refuel) 2. Algeria is in range of French air assets based in Mali, Niger and Chad. Once air superiority is established, its just a question of mopping up. 2 Likes |

africaken: guy, aside from the war with israel ( which we all know is based on religion), the list is mainly Algerian conflicts. Algerian constition forbids military intervention in foreugn conflicts. it's not up for discussion. i'm preoccupied right now, but this is the closest i could find to make you understand better. http://www.al-monitor.com/pulse/security/2014/06/algeria-mali-will-not-intervene.html |

patches689: lol... patches. and Algerian war ships will stiill be docked to watch in amusement as french ships sling cruise missiles frombit's shores? war is not like playing video games guy. you were in so much hurry that you forgot france has to engagr the Algerian Navy first (which is also blue water capable) before slinging dem cruise missiles ![]() and while the navies engage, the algerian army positions it's air defences in anticipation for a french air campaign. don't try to use the iraq template on this one. we both know US fought an already crumbled military. iraqi generals even gave US cordinates of where and when to hit. let's not derail this thread abeg ![]() 2 Likes |

africaken: i don't know where you get your information from. iran already paid for them but russia refused to supply because of the UN arms embargo on iran. russia has lifted the ban and is about to supply iran with the systems. they are even considering selling s-400 to them. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-32290335 1 Like |
