MikeCZAR: Bwahahahaha ![]() ![]() Nobody in Africa has guided shells, when we talk about shells on this forum, it's standard that we ONLY quote range for unguided shells. Nigerian NNS Aradu has similar gun 127 mm Oto Melara gun with 120 km range. http://www.otomelara.it/products-services/guided-ammunition/vulcano-127mm http://archive.is/qUExe Have you seen me claim 120 km range for NNS Aradu on this forum ? Only a m0ron from South Africa will quote ammunition that does not exist in an African country as their weapons range.

jln115: Yes, because in your own post you were quoting range of guided shell in an argument involving unguided shell. You created the confusion, I cleared it for you. In an exam, if you go off topic and out of context ....you fail ! I educated you, because you did not know the difference between guided and unguided shell. Say thank you to me for the fresh and free Nigerian education you always benefit from, say thank you now... . 1 Like 1 Share |

MikeCZAR: Foooool ![]() ![]() You have sh0t MikeCZAR in the skulll ![]() ![]() NNS Aradu uses 127mm/54 gun and it uses Vulcano shell with 120 km range, same as the 127mm/64 gun. "VULCANO 127mm ammunition is conceived to give the 127/54 C and the 127/64 LW OTO Melara Naval Guns the capability to meet any present and future requirement for Precision Naval Fire Support and Long Range engagement of Surface Targets." http://www.otomelara.it/products-services/guided-ammunition/vulcano-127mm So NNS Aradu has gun range of 120 km ....PROVED !

lionel4power:Who is Jacob Zuma?,nobody takes that mushroom-head illiterate seriously. @topic: i hope mr president urgently lobbies for sophisticated weapons and surveillance technology/intel sharing system{and perhaps military training and support} needed to tackle our current terrorism disturbance. Since Russia has been booted out of G7 and China is a no-go zone,there is a strong possibility that Nigeria could soon become a member of the G7. |

Henry120: 1. Mr Young was utterly destroyed when he took the stand. 2. There is nothing he said that says that the Valour Class is obsolete 3. He is not even talking about the combat suite as a whole - he is talking about a specific component of the combat suite (data-busses) 4. SAN requirements were adjusted according to availability of systems, acquisition costs, operational costs, life-cycle costs, training costs etc. and, yet again, I ask: Are you saying that Mr Young is right - and that all the admirals and staff of the French, South African, Saudi and Taiwanese navies are wrong? |

[b]Withdraw ‘uncosted’ Defence Review, DA urges BY WYNDHAM HARTLEY, 05 JUNE 2015, 07:04 inShare Kindle Clip this article A police inspector holds up the South African flag outside the Gauteng legislature. Picture: THE TIMES Related articles National Assembly delays revitalisation of defence force, says minister Defence department mulls riot squad A crisis too big to contemplate DA says defence committee ‘failing in duty’ to hold minister to account In this article Companies and organisations: Inkatha Freedom Party | Freedom Front Plus | Democratic Alliance People: Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula LAST year’s Defence Review, which concluded that the South African National Defence Force was in decline and would take years to reverse, should be withdrawn because it had not been costed, Democratic Alliance (DA) MP David Maynier said on Thursday. Speaking in the National Assembly during a debate on the Defence Review, Mr Maynier also accused the joint standing committee on defence of failing to give the review report the attention it deserved, holding only a handful of meetings in almost a year. The review came to the conclusion that the military was in a critical state of decline and lacked core capabilities. Committee chairman Stanley Motimele introduced the report on Thursday and called for its approval. Mr Maynier said: "We have a constitutional responsibility to consider the financial implications of policy documents in Parliament. "We propose the minister (Defence Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula) withdraws the Defence Review from Parliament, and within a period of not more than six months commissions an independent audit of the cost estimates used in the review." Freedom Front Plus MP Pieter Groenewald said it did not make sense to consider buying more weapons when those already bought could not be operated because of a lack of funding. Inkatha Freedom Party MP Albert Mncwango said it was clear more funding was needed for the defence force, but not at the expense of other priorities. The National Assembly approved the report on the Defence Review.[/b] 1 Like |

Henry120: Blah blah blah - opposition MP's are opposing? Wow! Shock Horror!! Sereti commission discussions have shown that all assets are being used as intended: Valour Class have 2 operational, one in training/reserve and one in maintenance (in line with international standards) Subs have 2 operational and one in maintenance (above international standards) All Hawks are operational All A109's are operational Gripen pilot training continues unabated - all platforms are operational, two years ago we had 18 aircrew, this number grows continually Review is happening, whether you like it or not ![]() O, and FYI - the FF+ supports the Defence Reveiw: Groenewald said it was time that the ANC government realised the defence minister’s request for a budget of two percent of Gross Domestic Product was essential if the SANDF was to continue successfully executing tasks internally and continentally. - Defenceweb 1 Like |
