MikeCZAR: I mentioned the Chinese rocket MRLS Mike. Got the diameter wrong though. They're 107mm. Forgot the 40mm AGL, the Milan ATGM, the 2-tube Ingwe and the 3-tube Starstreak. Not bad for a golf cart size, eh? Of interest, their Supply Unit guys tested some Navistar vehicles not too long ago. Personally I think they should complement the Hornet with the RG32M.

africaken: I assume you know why Special Forces the world over, opt for greater mobility over protection, right? They're not infantry for goodness sakes. As to your question, 8 Hornets equipped with 12.7 and 20mm MGs, and type 63 MRLS did spectacularly against Seleka, thank you very much. Of course no commander should ever have to use SF that way, but that's another debate. 2 Likes |

africaken:Alshabaab declared Jihad on Kenya and its western interest in the country, so we should expect all the precautions even though Nairobi hasn't had any incidents these days. I still don't believe the Mubarak assassination attempt in addis when I read the story, the audacity of it. |

MikeCZAR:when american special forces went to afganistan they went with toyota pickups but when the threat of IED increased they changed to using RG-31 MRAPS.Todays threats are changing exponentially ,todays insurgents are armed much sophisticated weapons e.g ATGM and the environment conflicts are taking place don't provide stealthiness |

Patchesagain:at the NAF Training command there is that device infront of an array of 5 mobile radars on mercedes truck. The smaller radar is on the truck above a box-like structure while its also towing a much larger radar at it's back. I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO TAKE PICTURES BUT I DONT WANT TO BE HARASSED UNNECESSARYLY. |

Ddami, vandalza, rudza,less. . . Etc has transformed that other thread to ' who is the baddest b.itc.h in Africa'. Please somebody should stop them before we lose that thread forever. #save_the_thread for the sake of the constructive rivalry and cheap education we're all enjoying over there. |
