The systems TDL, radar, FLIR, TV cameras etc enable it to undertake such missions.

SA is one of the leading countries in electronic warfare components developments.

mumu instead of you to accept that saaf lacks ELINT, ISTAR Capabilities. So if ISTAR is just a mere mission why did the UK and NATO constructed an ISTAR only aircraft? And why do they operat the watchkeeper dedicated istar UAV

1. I dont see any links confirming that your ATR has this
2. Gripen is ISTAR capable

Lolly lozy lol

Do you see any source that says Nigeria has Automatic Grenade Launchers ? No source, but does Nigeria have it? Yes !

Any proof? PHOTO EVIDENCE !

Smart people know what an AGL looks like, same way smart people know what ELINT dome looks like and it's location.

NAF ATR-42 Surveyor has ELINT dome, PHOTO EVIDENCE proves it, go kiss a frog tonight, it's Friday grin grin


MikeCZAR:
Because you say so?

Provide a source!

We don't wanna hear your conclusions as you don't even know what AESA radar is!

I already did...MikeZAR eating humble pie for weekend, it's Friday bashing here grin grin

The British Sentinel dome on top of fuselage is NOT radar, it's ELINT SATCOM hardware dome, confirmed by military sources :

"The modifications include a canoe-shaped radome under the forward fuselage to house the radar antenna, a radome on the upper fuselage to house the SATCOM antenna."

http://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/astor/


Next time, remember that radars for ISTAR aircraft are under fuselage, not above it like AWACS, MikeCAR Olodo grin grin

The Nigerian ATR-42 upgrade put the dome, ELINT dome on top fuselage like the British and Chinese airforce.

South Africa can go try put a dome on their C-47 Dakota and lets see all the 50 year old aluminium aircraft fall into pieces grin grin

So you are saying that the ATR42MP (maritime patrol) has the same capacity as the platforms in the USAF and RAF?

Please tell me you are saying that

Yes ! NAF is equal in ISTAR to USAF, RAF, we are world class !

LOL....LOLZ...My sides grin grin South Africans don't know about Multi-Mission ISTAR....too advanced for a Soweto brain

Actually the British air force is now upgrading her own Sentinel ISTAR aircraft to do maritime patrol like Nigerian air force ATR-42.

South Africans know NOTHING about ISTAR, their race and generations have NEVER seen one such aircraft grin grin

Let me educate you 50 million Southies in the village nation of ANC. You see, powerful countries like Nigeria, China, Britain, etc do buy ISTAR aircraft for land patrol or maritime patrol initially, then later do upgrade and add the other capacity to get the aircraft to be perfect on land and sea operations, it is called MULT-MISSION ISTAR you South African born fooooools !

NAF has upgraded our ATR-42 Maritime to now do perfect land ISTAR plus sea ISTAR, upgrade done in Britain.

RAF of Britain is now upgrading their own land ISTAR, the Sentinel, to do maritime ISTAR after Nigeria advanced ahead of them.


"The United Kingdom is to begin the process of upgrading its fleet of Raytheon Sentinel R.1 Airborne Stand-Off Radar (ASTOR) surveillance aircraft to conduct maritime operations in mid-2015, the government disclosed on 24 October.The news that work to upgrade the Sentinel R.1's maritime capabilities will soon begin, the RAF is looking to introduce enhanced capabilities to the surveillance aircraft to turn it into a true multi-mission platform."

http://www.janes.com/article/45057/uk-to-upgrade-sentinel-r-1s-for-maritime-operations

That is why Nigerian ATR-42 became multi-mission ISTAR aircraft perfected for maritime war and land war, that's why NAF wrecked Boko Haram as Nigeria controlled the entire battle-fields the size of Scotland, from the air !

That is how Nigeria will delete the SANDF in battle from 330 km away !

So you are saying that the ATR42 is just as good as the Bombadier Dash, EC-130H, Boeing OC-135B Open Skies, Boeing RC-135?

Ok, citations please, compare the ATR42 to the above in terms of capabilities and numbers

How will Nigeria delet SANDF from 330km away when your ATR42 does not have that range and you have no weapons that extend that far?

Dude, you are a complete and utter joke... but now i can say that you are a delusional joke

Bragging with ISTAR partial air link without any integration of the system on all your platforms. If I were you I would have been ashamed because the whole world see you as a fool to boast that technology without a dedicated tactical data link.


NAF ISTAR <US and UK because their system are all integrated in one unit that communicate with all their platforms as a unit.

If so it does, if not it does not.

You seem to be of the opinion that ISTAR is some special snowflake unicorn capability that is so hard to get.

Your master Eeben Barlow also knows that SADC was using ELINT from yesteryears when Nigeria was still a bush. you only started acquiring that capability yesterday but you already want to compete with your master. We don't run to Europe just to that, we have hundred of companies locally that can do that.

Saaf gripen doesnt have the endurance of a dedicated platform. A gripen is a multirole aircraft, if you want to do istar you will have to sacrifice things like weapons payload, fuel carriage, higher crew workload. E.t.c plus short time on station. The gripen can only dash in and out of the theather to re fuel or rearm. Look below for istar king of Africa.
