Nigeria spent over $10 billion in Liberia alone in the 90's. We and Ethiopia are in the UN due to our military heritage. S.A only come to make up the numbers or fulfil formality that's why a country like Tanzania will head you in an international mission grin

Please, Zulu incompetence both in your military and beyond are well acknowledged. It is not even controversial grin grin grin

Post some citations to back that up and then we can discuss you argument.

You should go have a liedown and a beer to calm down

Come back when you have something to contribute

FYI: We get more than enough international validation - it is us whom Russia and China chose to form a partnership with, not you. I think that says enough.
partnership on what ? I beg to differ with this Zulu. grin grin . You have been kicked out of the BRICs you got through the backdoor. grin grin grin grin bwuahhaha.

Patrick or whatever they call you. You are an e-criminal. Debating with you is waste of data.

Nairaland has known no worse fraud and dishonest member than you. And that will be your legacy here, I'll see to that.

Now back to topic : O' Neil formed and coined the term BRIC and he never included S.A. You know this.

Other members invited S.A into it. Just like S.A was trying to invite Nigeria but we graciously turned down because we're bigger than you.

Academics and Economic institutions and analysts never include S.A in BRIC.

Same O' Neil coined MINTS which have a better prospects than BRIC and Nigeria is in MINT.

Here is for your comprehension. I know you don't give up even in the face of uncompromised fact. Read this for your own fvckery:The nomenclatures of economic trading
blocs are becoming numerous: It all started
with G 8 , the great eight largest economies ,
G 20 and then BRICS , organization of five
major emerging national economies of
Brazil, Russia ,
India , China and South Africa .
Now comes MINT nations, MINT is the
acronym for an association of four major
emerging economies Of Mexico , Indonesia ,
Nigeria and Turkey.
Both MINT and BRICS were coined and
popularized by Jim O ’ Neil, an economist of
first order and the former chairman of
Goldman Sachs Asset Management. Jim
O ’ Neil can be rightly called an authority on
productivity assessment of emerging
economies .
” As of 2013 , the five BRICS countries
represent almost 3 billion people , with a
combined nominal GDP of US$16 . 039
trillion , and an estimated US $4 trillion in
combined foreign reserves . Presently, South
Africa holds the chair of the BRICS group,
having hosted the group’ s fifth summit in
2013 .
The BRICS have received both praise and
criticism from numerous quarters. ”
The major criticism was for the admission
of South Africa into the BRICS with its
relatively smaller GDP and inadequate
infrastructures, together with its annual
anemic economic growth .
Jim O ’ Neil , who disagreed with South Africa
admission into the BRICS , also popularized
this phenomenon of bloc of nations
neologism that are futuristic with dominant
emerging economies . And now he has also
fashioned and endorsed MINT nations with
the recent economic waning of BRICS
nations.
This is how Jim O ’ Neil introduced MINT
nations in his article in Bloomberg and he
delineated MINT as the potential emerging
investment destination

[size=20pt]TIME FOR A MATHS LESSON!![/size]

Warrior class OPV

Range: 400nmi (7,400 km) at 18knts (32kmh)

7,400 divided by 32 = 231

Hence - it takes the warrior class 231 hours to cover 7400km (less than 10 days)

How many hours in 10 days? 240!

P18N range 3000nmi (5556km) at 18knts (32kmh)

5556 divided by 32 = 173

It takes 173 hours for the P18N to run out of fuel (7 days)

Conclusion: Warrior class outranges the P18N because it can patrol for ALL 10 days of its endurance while the P18N can only patrol for 7 days of its endurance



[size=20pt]All your above calculations are wrong !

Wrong because the max range of Warrior class is NOT 4,000 miles.

It's 3,600 miles....Fool. You don't know the range of your own boat grin grin

Performance:

Output, max: 11mW
Speed, max: 32 kts
Range, miles: 1,500 miles at 30 kts or 3,600+ miles at economic speed
Endurance: 10 days stores

- hind taking off
- which of your warships can your hind land on?
- backflips can be an effective combat maneuver
- hovering in combat and hovering to land are very different things - hind makes gun runs like a fixed wing aircraft in combat because it lacks the maneuverability to use cover and hover
- fact remains, hind cannot do advanced evasive maneuvers

-Prove to us with source that Hind cannot hover. Hovering is a normal helicopter capability.

-Backflip is for air show aerobatics display, not combat. Helicopter facing the enemy, then does backflip and faces the same enemy again, any sense in that? The pilots will be sh.ot down by anti-aircraft during his backflip, the helicopter cannot fire during a backflip you dundee !

- helicopters don't need air to air advanced maneuvers to attack a ground target. It's not jet vs jet dogfight in the air. Olodo man !

- Hind taking off? Where is the dust from the rotors blowing the desert soil ?

Valour Class has SSM's

Your OPV will be sunk by them

If you wish to claim that your chaff-launchers can defeat all 17 exocet missiles that the SAN has, then you need to provide proof.

Provide proof that it cannot, you are the one saying PJ-46 anti-missile system does not work, so prove it !

P18N OPV of Nigeria will defeat ALL Southie Valour frigate missiles.

Now you don't have 17 Exocets, you have done test firing on your 4 ships as claimed by SAN navy officer @Andrewza and others like @Snydergp of SANDF, @Saengine and others.

Means SAN has ONLY 13 Excoet missiles remaining, enough for one and a half Frigates, no wonder you keep only one frigate operational grin
