Two fools on Monday morning....fools...UN buys armoured vehicles directly from Manufacturer and paint the UN colours...Fools of Soweto.

"ANKARA — Turkey’s leading armored vehicles manufacturer, Otokar, has said that it won a $24.6 million contract from the United Nations.

In a news release March 6, Otokar said the contract was for an unspecified number of the company’s Cobra vehicles. The UN will use the Cobras in peacekeeping operations, the company said."

Envy will choke you all to d..eath....Nigerian Proforce will soon snatch the market from DENEL like we did to your GDP grin grin
.



agaugau show where UN has made the same contract with proforce. Such news would have been painted on the media by now. UN seldom make such contracts because they prefer rather to rent equipment. Normally they would request any military to deploy its equipment which they will pay for every month it is the mission. Proforce vehicle were going to be used by Nigerian police that's all.

Two Rooivalks are painted in UN colours in Congo and UN never purchased them.

Give us a source which recorded the deal between proforce and UN because showing vehicles painted in UN colours is not a proof.

Rooikat is only 76mm gun. One shot from a Nigerian 90mm gun Sagaie and your Mbombe or Rooikat are both dead

1. Rooikat has better optics
2. Rooikat has a stabilized gun

Rooikat sees first, Rooikat shoots first, Rooikat hits first

Also:

Max range on the ERC 90's gun: 900m
http://www.army-guide.com/eng/product3587.html

Max range on the Rooikats gun: 2000m

Rooikat sees first, shoots first, hits first and all beyond the range of the ERC90
http://www.military-today.com/artillery/rooikat.htm

Thats why we chose a smaller 71mm gun (high-pressure) over the low-pressure 90mm... we have experience in armored warfare (unlike you) so we know what we are looking for

No it does not!


A version of the Mbombe carries ATGMs, so can a version of the Igirigi carry ATGMs.

A 23mm cannon would cut through the Mbombe like "hot knife through butter".

1. No version of the Igiririri carries ATGM's
2. 30mm will be more effective

Bwahahaha...Posting 30 year old video of Apartheid era SADF ....see Impala jets and Mirage jets, you now mixed it with a few tiny clips of your current inferior SANDF training of old people's infantry.....my own Nigerian video is current date year 2013 just 2 years ago.

LOL....fool, your SADF Brigade exercise video does not even have up to 100 troops in action.

The Nigerian video is INTER-BRIGADE exercise meaning many brigades combined, and that's why the exercise commander is a Major General GOC 2 division Nigerian army Ibadan city, not a Brigadier General. It was a bigger war game than a brigade.

It was actually FOUR BRIGADES combined training/war game, namely

32 Artillery Brigade Akure
22 Brigade Ilorin
2 Division Engineers Ibadan
4 Brigade Benin


Nigerian army used FOUR brigades combined in that single war game/exercise recently done 2013.

Sure I have shocked you and Mike.ZCAR with this revelation, you thought only SANDF trains in large numbers....ignorant fools grin grin


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DaEB9mL3Rw
Since when did the 30 year ago apartheid SADF have so many black soldiers? Or since when did they have Olifant MK1B? or since when did they wear Soldier 2000 camo? and FINALLY SINCE WHEN DID THE SADF HAVE THE ROOIVALK 30 YEARS AGO??

You are not in the military but you decide ignorantly that the exercise is outdated. The same drills were tended to your military by Mr Barlow and it worked against Boko Haram. Those very drills were considered to be among top 10 in the world.

The same drills that SANDF uses and armed men criss cross your border daily under the noses of battalions of SANDF troops trained at your 'prestigious' military academy and posted to protect your borders, yet fail woefully everyday as arms smugglers, assassins, poachers, ets play hide and seek in your fatherland bush land, dribbling Mandela's soldiers like Tom & Jerry cartoon.....yet you claim Col.

Yes same metal sheet protection for Mbombe and Igirigi, both are hull protected from 7.62 mm bullets only.

STANAG rating wont save the Mbombe you dunce, 23 mm x 2 double barrel cannon from Igirigi will kill everything inside that Mbombe
.

1. No, not the same - Mbombe is protected against IED's (10kg under wheel, 50kg at 5m) and RPG's
https://www.shephardmedia.com/news/7211/

2. STANAG rating of level 4 means protection against 14.5×114mm AP / B32 at 200 meters. Meaning it is defended against all but the heavyest of weapons

Now: citations for igirururgurugrur ratings please.

Conclusion: Not the same as the sheet metal welded on your Ford F50 hull

Mr. Balow trained 120 of our troops on use of MRAP and light machine guns. He is just a basic infantry rifle officer, not a composite mechanized brigade officer. His tactics were basically hot pursit, hit and run guerrilla tactics, that is what he knows .

How does that relate to Nigeria using tactics to fight with thousands of tanks, IFV, APC, heavy artillery ? Barlow teaches about Bofors artillery?

He teaches doctrine

His role as a supervisor for your army is well recorded on beegugug's blog

South African military vehicles deployed to the
DRC and used by the FIB generate an income of
around R35 000 a month with Rooivalk combat
support helicopters reportedly earning in excess
of R100 000 a month. The UN has specified hire
tariffs for equipment ranging from tents through

3. That is not an EXERCISE - it is an inter-brigade competition, swimming races/oreinteering and such - not feild maneuvers. You should watch things before you post them

You deliberately omitted field exercises that involves artillery, and field obstacle crossing.

Did you hear the word sports mentioned anywhere in the video or by the army commandant ?

You do sports with full combat kit and weapons like artillery?

Title is "Inter-Brigade Combat Proficiency Competition" designed for new war trends of modified training.

The competition is our own usual added flavour to training exercises.

Your SANDF is not creative enough to add that.

Its a inter brigade competition

There is no mention of brigade maneuvers and no footage of it either, or any vehicals or aircraft or artillery

All we see is small groups of men from each brigade comepeting against each other

Its a military sports day - THEY EVEN HAVE A FVCKING PRIZE GIVING

You obviously have not watched the video

Fact is simple, Nigerian army is incapable of conducting execises of the scope and scale that the SANDF pulls off
