You're crazy! Is that how you welcome your chief e-slayer after a long hiatus?

agaugust:


Simple fact is that South Africa imports European made tanks, jets, warships, submarines. You are import dependent except for MRAP and a few other low powered stuff.

Hahahahahaha

What is this? WW2?

agaugust:


[s]Ask @andrewza why he ran away 50 km back offshore from Nigerian coast during his failed naval blockade simulation. He forgot about the Nigerian artillery, so we reminded him and he ran back to sea.[/s]

I have allready dispelled your myths about coastal artillery

Stop wasting my time with old topics

We trained Eeben Barlow and his mates are still advisors of SANDF to this day.

Sub can happily snorkel... it will detect the aircraft and dive again.

agaugust:


All apartheid era old SADF COIN experts that fought against ANC are retired, disbanded, disabled, sick, bedridden, wheel-chaired or dead !

You liar !

agaugust:


Sub don't use radar while they snorkel, so it cannot detect enemy aircraft. Fool, radar does not work under water

mzilakazi:




Nigerian military which is notorious of being masters of propaganda is deceiving the world with their over inflated numbers. If they really had that strength, BH wouldn't have proved too difficult to defeat. Here is a source that says it all about Nigeria's military strength.

I quote

Strangely absent from this list is Nigeria, the world's seventh most populous state, normally thought of as a military heavy-weight in Africa, but with only 62,000 soldiers it may be large by local standards, but not by world standards.

mzilakazi:


That's nonsense, in my unit alone we have plenty of soldiers who fought in COIN missions and are still pioneering courses of COIN missions.

How will we react to piracy? Are you serious? What a frigate cannot patrol for pirates? Submarines cannot clandestinly gather intelligence?

Simple Q&A:

1. Can the navy in question fight a conventional war?
RSA: Yes
NIG: No

2. Can the navy in question perform anti-piracy duties?
RSA: Yes
NIG: Yes

tell me, who has the better navy?

Ask @andrewza why he ran away 50 km backwards offshore with all Valour frigates from Nigerian coast during his failed naval blockade war simulation. He forgot about the Nigerian artillery, so we reminded him and he ran back to sea

O really? So Boko Haram tanks and artillery blended in with all the civilian tanks and artillery?

Jackass

patches689:


Nothing. Because it is not a threat.

You admitted being a student. Since when did you become a military boy. In nairaland ,of cource!!!

That largest artillery force is yet to defeat BH at own country.

patches689:


Are you re.tarded?

When deployed to the valour class the Lynx lives inside of the hanger. Unless it is about to take-off or has just landed, it sits inside the hanger.

Good lord, what a fvcking slowpoke.

agaugust:

Same way the Valour frigate is no threat to ATR-42

Here we go again. Augubug and his semantic arguments

Surveillance and Spy are synonyms you fvckwit

The size of other armed forces Is over 500,000. Combining the nigeria police, immigration, civil defence, SSS etc. U must b a fool to send 3000 troops.

mzilakazi:

mzilakazi:


Who told you that?

agaugust:


Nope, both Russian manufacturer and SIPRI arms log have refused to call your satellites spy, they all say it's surveillance like other Africans'

mzilakazi:


None of Nigeria artillery can shoot up to 50kms. Nigeria is still using old fashioned Bofor artillery guns which can only shoot up to 32 kms. You don't have modern artillery.

agaugust:

Basic physics

mzilakazi:



Russia treat their arms sales confidentially. No way would they have gone into details about their customer and what have they ordered, it was not part of the deal. The same spy satellite that SANDF procured is the same one used by Russian military.
