Our Rooikat's gun is more powerful, in fact it replaced our Eland 90 which had basically the same 90mm gun as your Sagaie.....The Rooikat is also faster, more maneuverable and has a much more modern fire control system, the Rooikat can also fire accurately fire on the move....Your Sagaie stand 0 chance against the Rooikat.

Your Rooikat has ZERO test in any war.....and it's 76 mm gun CANNOT shoot straight, I posted the South African source here last year grin grin

We are talking about data-links

You asked if Algeria or Egypt has them

We said: We dont know and we dont fvcking care

Same way you don't know if Nigeria has tactical data-link....or the rule is different when you assess Algeria-Egypt ?

Double standards....means you do not know what you claim, you have no proof !

Rooivalk is battle tested

Your "source" is not from a respected military publication, its written by a women in Phoenix Arizona who also said Mandela was dead 1 year before he passed away

My source is a respected military publication and it says accurate up to 2km

Citations have been posted... your Saigie is inferior

You are about 70 years behind us in regards to vehical manufacture

Build something that beats what we built in WW2 and then come talk to us

Your manufacturing industry is 90% owned and ruled by Europeans, we proved that already.

No, you keep saying that

But you have yet to prove anything.

Now - stay on topic - and show us something Nigeria makes that is better than what we produced in WW2

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

What is the name of that sport then....soccer, tennis...basketball ?

LOL....Cape Colony half-wit, Combat Proficiency Competition is NOT a sports proficiency competition.

The title and major general's speech tells it all.

That video shocked you.

LOL.....let me torment Southies again.....in 2009 Nigerian army, navy, and air force had a major brigade level exercise called OPERATION OLOGUN META.....local language meaning three armed forces.



"A Brigade of the Nigerian Army, three mother naval cat class-warships – NNS KYANWA, NNS OBULA and NNS NWAMBA - and six squadrons of Nigerian Air Force aircraft are participating in in the exercise. Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Paul Dike, explained that the conduct of the joint exercise was borne out of “the desire to exercise our troops in a tri-service setting.


The exercise involved beach landing operations, riverine operations and insertion of troops, advance quick attack, deliberate attack phase and internal security operations.

Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Paul Dike, explained that the conduct of the joint exercise was borne out of “the desire to exercise our troops in a tri-service setting in year 2009.

The exercise, he said, “will essentially serve as a platform for us to test our intelligence gathering abilities, check the interoperability of our communication facilities as well as testing our Command and Control capability. At the end of the whole exercise, the lessons learnt will be used in improving our operational procedures in current and future operations,” he said.

The Nigerian military last held an exercise of this magnitude in May 2004, when it organised Operation TAKUTE EKPE in Lagos.

The exercise climaxed display of months of operations, weeks of reconnaissance and days of rehearsals. The officers and men involved in JOPEX 09 were involved in beach landing operations, harbour defence, riverine operations and insertion of troops, advance quick attack, deliberate attack phase and Internal Security Operations (ISOs).

The beach landing part of the exercise had commenced last Monday just as the Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Paul Dike was finishing his welcome address. It involved the simulation of naval and combat aircraft bombardments boomed all around the surrounding beachfront, signalling the start of assault on enemy positions."

I just gave you two other, even bigger NAF + NN + NA joint service military exercise at brigade level in modern times.

1. Operation TAKUTE EKPE....year 2004

2. Operation OLOGUN META.....year 2009

Shame on ALL Southie liars, Nigerian military conducts regular brigade level and above joint army, navy, air force exercises shocked shocked

Rooikat gun cannot shoot straight....it's a naval gun put on a army vehicle, reason why it missed target during the sea exercise in South Africa, Mr.Day was targeted and 76mm gun missed, Mr.Day is enjoying with is wife as we speak !

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


- Mumu, "so can a version of Igirgi carry ATGMs".


- Dual 23mm means double the fire power. 46mm worth of rushing kinetic energy, not even the Hulk can withstand that.

Who said anything is obsolete?

You said you would choose battle tested over "paper statistics"

So then you would choose the battle tested T-72 over the K2 Black Panther.

Is this correct?

"What is this one even saying?"........ Are you having high temperature again?


We are talking abouth the ZSU-23-2 mounted on Nigerian army Igirigi pitched against the 30mm armed Mbombe.


My pick again, I'll go with the Igirigi.
