Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 3:01am On May 21, 2015 |
agaugust: No, a balanced Navy does not need a carrier A carrier is for force projection Most Navies do not require force projection, and are defencive in nature - designed to protect their homeland. You dont need a carrier when your jets are taking off from dry land. You still however need submarines because they are a massive force multiplier. Guy, you are so hilariously dense - you think like a child. 1 Like |

agaugust: Because you say so? 42 Nations have submarines around 6-7 Navies have operational carriers (China and UK have no combat ready carriers, Spains are also non-operational) Are you saying that there are only 6-7 balanced navies in the world? The Navies of Japan and Korea, both of which fall in the top 10 most powerfull in the world - are not balanced? Same for Saudi, Egypt, Mexico, Canada, Germany, Spain (their carriers are no-more), Turkey? Dude, you are a joke. The ability to deploy fixed wing aircraft at sea has nothing to do with balance and is all about force projection 1 Like |

They had to downplay the scandal so that it would not harm the fast food selling market especially for international prospective patrons. The damage is already done and I wouldn't see myself eating at any Nigerian restaurants, heaven knows I wouldn't dare to do such thing.

Dude!! The Airframe of the older lynx couldn't handle the G-Forces caused as a result of a backflip, it also didn't have a powerful enough engine to preform such a manoeuver, same thing with the Apache Secondly I provided no less than 2 sources that prove my claims, why don't you post a citation that 1970 Lynx helicopters were able to preform backflips And here is my source that states ;The Lynx has the distinction of being the world's first fully aerobatic helicopter.

bidexiii: The early versions of Apaches could not backflip and even the current version could only fly upside down for not longer than it should, let say two minutes. The Rooivalk was undoubtedly the first ever gunship to be incorporated with the unique art of flying upside down. The first ever helicopter on its ranks to display such exclusive abilities of flying with that magnitude of immense aptitude. I will prove it to you in a short while. Be calm and wait for the evidence that will explode your head. |

bidexiii: I positively dont think that was in 1970 since the Lynx made their first production late in 1970s. Moreover, the Lynx that was seen back flipping was somehow supposed to have been modified, very different from the one originally purchased from the manufactures. |

bidexiii:I provided 2 links r3tard, one wasn't even South African, both state that when the Rooivalk first came out it was the only helicopter in the world able to fly inverted/do a backflip. Thus the sources prove 2 things 1The Rooivalk was the only helicopter able to preform a backflip and 2 The Apach Ah-64A was not able to preform a backflip, because both sources state only the Rooivalk was able to preform such a manoeuvre at that time. Why don't YOU provide a source to prove the AH-64A was able to preform a backflip. I provided 2 sources that prove it couldn't. |

mzilakazi:Yes mate I do agree that the earlier versions of the Apache were not able to do backflips and the Rooivalk was the only helicopter able to do a backflip at that time, BUT no helicopter in the world can fly upside down for more than a few seconds, not even the Rooivalk, Its scientifically impossible!! even for the most advance choppers in the world! |

patches689: After 10 years of NATO war in Afghanistan, Taliban is still s.hooting down US Navy Seals special forces helicopter and killing American commandos like houseflies. You said Taliban has been kicked out, yet in 2014 same Taliban controls huge lands and kills NATO troops at random, does an enemy you have kicked out still exist where you kicked them out, control land, make laws, and kill the same person that 'kicked them out' ? You fvcking liar ! BY BILL ROGGIO | October 22, 2014 | "The Afghan Taliban took control of three districts, one in the province of Wardak which is just south of Kabul, and the other two in the northern province of Kunduz, that were heavily contested during the US troop surge that began in 2010 and ended in 2011. One of the districts was the scene of the Taliban’s shoot down of a US helicopter that resulted in the deaths of 31 special operations personnel, including 17 US Navy SEALs. Reports from Afghanistan indicate that the district of Sayyidabad in Wardak as well as the districts of Chahar Darah and Dasht-i-Archi in Kunduz province are under the Taiban’s thumb. A reporter from the BBC recently visited the Tangi Valley in the district of Sayyidabad and noted that the Taliban fully control the district. He was given a tour by Said Rahman, the Taliban’s shadow district governor who is “popularly known as Governor Badr.” Taliban fighters openly patrol the district during the daytime, while Afghan troops are confined to a small hilltop outpost. Taliban judges mediate land and other disputes. Taxes are collected. Schools, which are funded by the Afghan government, teach the Taliban’s curriculum, while girls are not allowed to attend. [See BBC report, Life inside a Taliban stronghold.] Further north, in the province of Kunduz, Afghan officials admit that “the Taliban controls virtually all of two out of seven districts in Kunduz – Chahar Darah and Dasht-i-Archi,’ Reuters reports. “It is gaining influence elsewhere, and residents say it has been able to because what little state authority exists is viewed with deep mistrust,” Reuters continues. In Kunduz, the Taliban collects a 10 percent tax from farmers and business, mediates disputes in its courts, and runs the local schools." http://www.longwarjournal.org/archives/2014/10/taliban_control_3_di.php 1 Like |

MikeCZAR: An aircraft carrier is NOT an ordinary surface vessel, it is a surface vessel with full air to air combat capabilities, air power at sea. Your navy in Soweto does not have one.....sorry o . patches689: Force projection capability is part of a balanced military force. Reason why armies have amphibious armoured vehicles to operate on water. A balanced navy can hold it's own and survive in a high threat environment of sub surface, surface, and air borne threats. Thus a balanced navy has an aircraft carrier for air cover and air superiority off their coastline beyond help of their own air force. That is what the military world calls COMPLETE FLEET AIR ARM. Does not matter is only 10 countries of the world have aircraft carriers, fact is that a balanced navy has at least one aircraft carrier. Many countries who don't want to use their own do keep it in reserve like China and Britain. India has bought aircraft carrier and is using it now. British navy has an aircraft carrier not in use, yet it was the balance of that single aircraft carrier that saved the British navy from total defeat in war with Argentina. If the British had no aircraft carrier, the Argentine air force would have sank all their entire navy fleet and Britain will lose the war. Yes, it proves my point from war history, a balanced navy has an aircraft carrier or else it will lose war to air threat. You want to remove aircraft carrier from naval requirement because South Africa does not have one, fact is that your navy is NOT balanced until you have aircraft carrier, deal with it . |
