patches689: Nigerian navy has about 7 maritime helicopters that are fully active, see photo below. Our AW 109 are naval versions for maritime operations. We have 3 anti-submarine helicopters in storage that we do not need to use, the Lynx. All 10 helicopters belong to Nigerian navy, the South African navy has no pilots and no single aircraft, you totally depend on your air force for maritime air operations. Your over-hyped navy is NOT complete, NOT balanced. Most countries in the world have no single role attack helicopter, they use Hinds which are multi-role attack+transport helicopters, makes more sense to have a multi-role platform before you add a single role later if you wish. The world has over 3,000 Mi-24 Hinds flying around, but only 11 Rooivalks, so which one is in more demand due to usefulness? Ukraine used old hinds in Congo, they have no Hind E which is the latest version. NAF has Hind E, leave the old topic dude. Alpha jet is manufacturer configured to carry air to air missiles and PGM, it's a matter of whether you bought the missiles or not. Google Alpha jet manufacturer specs and educate yourself. I won't repeat photos of what has been over-repeated on this forum, it kills peoples interest when you over-repeat stuff, so go google NAF hand held Ichoku drones photos, and Cobra, BTR, etc are all amphibious Nigerian army armoured vehicles, I won't repeat that old story, I has been fully discussed and proved on this forum. Try avoid dragging this forum backwards, people are complaining about your brain that works in reverse gear R mode.

mzilakazi: They looted rifles, AK-47, or you think T-72 tanks and artillery is used to patrol water creeks and swamps? BTWN, the pirates are Nigerians living inside Nigeria, actually not pirates, they are oil thieves. Does SANDF troops already live inside Nigeria or need to travel 5,000 km away and be exposed on the open ocean to our satellites, patrol aircraft, and coastal artillery bombardment ? Nigeria too can invade South Africa since Rhino poachers are border crossing in from Zimbabwe to loot your resources daily while your national security system remains confused and beaten blue black . |

DictatorZAR: Show me proof that F-7 crashed in the last two years. Also show proof that we have only 3 pilots. No proof = Trolling |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 4:44pm On Aug 19, 2015 |
DictatorZAR: Illiterate, your source is dated "Written by defenceWeb, Thursday, 03 May 2012" No F-7 jet has ever crashed again after the 3, now we have 12 and they fly thousands of hours in Boko war with NO SINGLE accident. #Death By Own Source |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by mzilakazi(m): 4:44pm On Aug 19, 2015 |
agaugust: F7s are non*operational. Currently NAF only operates old cargo Alpha jets to launch aerial attacks on insurgents. |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 4:54pm On Aug 19, 2015 |
mzilakazi: Nope liar, there is no source that says you will arm the drones with missiles. Same way Rooivalk NEVER got a guided missile till today. SANDF has NO missile armed drones, only Nigeria has that is sub saharan Africa. We are more modern than you. |

agaugust:1. We don't need a navy air arm, we have 22 sqd that fulfil the same role. You say your AW109s are Navy version? Well in that case, our Oryx are also Navy versions as they constantly conduct exercises with our navy ( Like today, Pic1) . Why don't you post a photo of your ASW Lynx, BTW heres how a proper ASW Lynx looks like (Pic2) . Jap the hind is a cheap helicopter thus the reason almost every African country has them.....Hell even Equatorial Guinea which only has +-1500 active personal in their whole defence force has Hinds. P.S don't be surprised if you see more than a 100 Rooivalk MK2s in service with militaries around the world in a few years.

jln115: Your Oryx belong to your air force, the fact remains that your navy has NO SINGLE AIR CRAFT and NO AIR ARM and NO PILOTS ![]() ![]() I won't repeat photo of Nigerian Lynx ASW helicopter again, been posted too many times, i am beginning a new attitude of not responding to request to repeat old stuff all over this forum, unless it makes sense. |

agaugust:I know they belong to SAAF retaard!! The fact remains they fulfil the EXACT same job that a navy air arm does!! Jap you posted photos of normal civilian Lynx helicopters, not anything that even remotely resembles an ASW platform!! |

mzilakazi: South African army elite troops had their entire armoury looted by local rebels in Burundi, they carried away your MRAPs, mortar artillery, rifles, shells, heavy machine guns, grenade launchers....LOL....your army was being stripped of heavy weapons and you could do nothing ![]() ![]() Sources have confirmed that millions of rands worth of vehicles, guns, ammunition and bombs, and supplies worth over R27-million have vanished from the South African army base in Burundi over the last four years. The missing vehicles are believed to include several Casspirs; a Mazda ambulance; Isuzu bakkies; one firefighting truck; Landrover Defenders; trucks; a water tanker; a Yamaha motorcycle; forklift trucks; Toyota Condor vans; several cars; a tractor; and a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. The Star has also established that among the weapons missing are 40 mortar bombs; 54 R-4 rifles; four R-5 rifles; a sniper rifle; two 12-gauge shotguns; eight machineguns; eight pistols; and 27 grenade launchers. A 15 KVA generator is also understood to be missing. While army authorities have previously blamed poor accounting practices for the losses, an investigation by The Star has found that on one occasion at least 50 missing SANDF mortar bombs - out of 80 bombs stolen using an army-owned Land-Rover - were found in a FNL Phalipe-Hutu rebel group camp in Kiriri, Burundi. The FNL has been blamed for a series of mortar attacks on the Burundian capital, Bujumbura, in which at least 300 people are known to have died. The Star has also learnt that a case of ammunition - part of a total 1.5 million SANDF-owned rounds that went missing in Burundi - was found in the possession of Burundian government forces in 2004. As yet, the SANDF has failed to reveal how many millions of rands worth of weapons, vehicles and supplies it has lost to theft or mismanagement. Disturbingly, it seems the SANDF has no idea how many weapons are in its possession. Now, following a scathing Auditor-General's report into the Department of Defence's "inadequate" and "deficient" accounting practices, the Democratic Alliance was due to ask the Defence Ministry in parliament today to address claims that about 70 army vehicles, over 110 weapons and items of equipment, and millions of rands worth of supplies have disappeared from the South African base in Burundi. http://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/burundi-bungle-leaves-sandf-chiefs-red-faced-1.300893 . |
