Can You differentiate them.. The pix that has GEJ in it has 3 different uniforms.,I still have other pix,,,,

There are some that wears something like LEAVES all over.. why are they distinct

Yes i can.

- Photo one, that's the Navy's Camouflage. All navy personnel wear that camo, apart from Navy Special boat service.

- Photo two, Navy, the guy in blue in the middle is from the Airforce ( that's the Airforce camo), and the guy in woodland camo is from the Army.


- Photo three, the officers in blue are from the Airforce, former President GEJ is wearing the new universal camo intended to replace all army camos used up north. The President's ADC is wearing the old desert camo.

- Photo four, that's the Army's old woodland camo.

SANDF has nothing to do with Rhinos. Since when is SANDF park rangers?


If I hear?

Your entire armed forces couldn't handle the Rhino poachers.

The reason why Boko haram is infiltrating the weak Nigerian military security is because of the use of 211 different uniforms which some can easily be bought from the market.

The country with the best military in Africa is Egypt, Algeria comes in at second, then Nigeria in 3rd place.

South-African systems are generally obsolete and are poorly manned.

Frigates = Obsolete( Technical details have been provided) and poorly manned.

Gripens = Chronic pilot shortage and lacking BVR capabilities

Tanks = World war 2 relics

IPVs/ MPVs = virtually non-existent

Subs = Poorly manned/ obsolete

Artillery = so few in numbers

Infantry = the oldest in the world/ poorly trained ( CAR perfect example)

Mokopa missiles = Broke and cannot afford it.

APCs = for a country that makes them, they have so few in service. Their troops, Special forces in the CAR lacked basic APCs.

Verdict : the South-African military is generally an ineffective poorly trained and inexperienced force.
*Frigates - I don't know what it is,,
*Gripens - No idea,,
*Tanks - For petrol and water,,
*IPVs/MPVs - uuumm will check Google,,
*subs - you mean substitutes,,
*Artillery - I know,,
*Infantry - Soldiers who fight on foot,,
*Mokopa - Sounds like a dance step in Congo,,
*APC - Yeah, that's a Political Party In Nigeria (ruling),,,

Henry, Asides your first 2 sentences, I can't support/oppose the listed because I have No Idea..

Unless you are mentally disturbed then you won't understand that SANDF does not look after game reserve animals. SANDF protect the country from national threat and that threat involves lives of the people and not animals. SANDF is not military of animals but of people. The special anti poaching squared was set up and is equal to the task and has decreased the poaching of rhinos.

Leaves are an Add-on camouflage, just for extra concealment.

the pic where you have GEJ is the army and airforce only.
The second pic contain army, navy and airforce.
The first pic is the Navy.

Dat simple.

The airforce and navy only have 1 camouflage. But army is different because they choose the 1 that suit the environment they will carry out operation.

I always have to take my time to explain everything cos u r too lazy to gather simple information.

I wonder how dull South African intelligence service will be.

SURELY EVEN THE CITIZENS OF NIGERIA DOES NOT KNOW HOW MANY DIFFERENT UNIFORM THEIR MILITARY HAVE. THAT'S WHY ANY UNIFORM IN NIGERIA WILL BE LINKED TO MILITARY SINCE MILITARY HAS 211 DIFFERENT UNIFORMS. NOW BOKO HARAM IS EXPLOITING THAT OPPORTUNITY. WE HAVE SEEN THAT EVEN @HENRY AND HIS MATES ASK THEMSELVES AS TO HOW MANY UNIFORMS DOES INFACT MILITARY HAVE. THEY LOOK VERY CONFUSED.

Hey,, I really didn't know the difference between them and Google wasn't helping out.. I guess I am too lazy to gather simple information... But I asked the question and am not a South African...

That's what I call danger because next time you won't be able to differentiate BH from your military the same way people from NE have been doing. You are in danger. Go and ask your military to stop circus and wear one universal camo.

Makes no difference when we both die at close WVR combat range no escape zone. PL-9C has hit probability of about 90%.

No

It does make a difference when one missile can pull 100G turns, shoot off-bore and engage targets behind the jet.

And the other cannot.

Dont be obtuse

Nope, you show proof that they are constantly hidden inside Valour frigate hanger at sea. Available official report says your Lynx are based on land at 22 Squadron air base as they are owned by the air force.

You need to prove they are now navy property and CONSTANTLY on ship.

mumu !

No I dont.

You are the one allegding that the Maritime Helicopters, purchased for use on the Valour Class are not being used by the Valour Class.

It is your duty to provide substantiation.

Do they even have army. 40,000 troops that is not up to the size of civil defence.

Claiming what they are not.

I don't see that, all I see is 211 uniforms. Go and ask them to burn all those blue camos. Where on mother earth did you ever see a blue camo? Camo is for the earth and not for the sky.
