80% is imported? Who were we importing from during the arms embargoes?

Yes it does - See Juliet Troop at Quito

Prove? Link-ZA, EODS, ground based ELINT, Milan-AD, Starstreak, Badger, Chaka-Battle Managment, IMPI Tracking system, Gripen, Valour Class, Heroin Class, Hawks, Gripen, Rooivalk, mobile radar systems and the rests of GBADS, CRAM etc etc etc


The portuguese government rountinely laundered equipment for the Afrikanner government.

How is the SANDF more advanced than the Nigerian military, you are yet to prove this.

Nigeria have zero data link to connect all their platform.You can't import it, you will have to make your own.

We are the only Nation in SSA that has operationally used data links.

Operationally, we are also the only one that have used ELINT compliant assets, AR-1, PL-9C, Falcon Eye, Satellite surveillance, networking & Tracking of assets just a part of the Navy's wider RMAFC, TRADOC -total radar coverage of Nigeria, MI-35m Hind E, MI-17 terminator, Up-graded Super-Puma Helos, ASW assets, CH-3A, Tactical squad drones, Up-graded Alpha jets, Stealth ships, Advanced rifles fitted with state-of-the-art visions etc etc


Again you South-Africans are yet to prove how you have the most technologically advanced military in Africa.

True the Dakota MPA are far from modern and need to be replaced. But they still get the job done. The C47 is arguably the greatest aircraft ever made.

It's a pre-world war II aircraft. The T-34 still gets the job done, but i don't see anybody using it in 2016.

The local customer is by no doubt SAAF sir. No agency in SA can be given powers to operate military hardwares of that calibre unless is directly
linked to SANDF.

Since you can't prove it's the SAAF........ Let's leave at that.

Most Advanced: South Africa
Overall most Powerful: Algeria


Most powerful, Egypt....24 Rafale jets, about 150 F-16s and about 50 Apaches helicopters, nqvy of many frigates and most advanced submarines in Africa, army of 30,000 APCs, IFVs, tanks, artillery, missiles, 1.5 million soldiers. OVERWHELMING FORCE.

Most advanced is hard to judge because Egypt, Algeria, Nigeria, Morroco, South Africa have different areas of military edge in technology.

Egypt's Rafale is the most advanced jet figther in Africa.

Egypt's Type 209 is the most advanced submarine in Africa

Egypt's E-3 AWACS is the most advanced and only AWACS aircraft in Africa

Morocco's FREMM frigate is the most advanced warship in Africa

Algeria's T-90 tank is the most advanced in Africa

Algeria's Pantsir SAM is rhe most advanced short range mobile air defence system in Africa

Algeria's S-400 SAM is the most advanced long range air defence system in Africa

Algeria's Yak-130 is the most advanced jet trainer in Africa

Nigeria's ATR-42 is the most advanced MPA+ISR aircraft in Africa

Nigeria's Beechcraft 350 ER is the most advanced ISTAR aircraft in Afica

Nigeria's BTR-4E is the most advanced IFV in Africa

Nigeria's Falcon Eye coastal surveillance system is the most advanced in Africa

Nigeria's CH-3 guided missile drone is the most advanced in Africa.

South Africa has nothing to boast of except tactical datalink and we cannot judge other African countries because we dont know who has tactical datalink and is not talking about it among other nations.

South Africa, I will like the Southies to list for us their equipment names that are currently in service (Not in laboratory or under testing/development stage) and are the most advanced in their class in Africa.....

Egypt might have the most powerful rafale but they do not have data link to connect it to other platform.



That means Egypt will be doomed fighting a country that has a complete data link.

The world has moved to digital but that does not rule out analog to be antique and not advanced. There are many analog equipments which are technologically advanced in their own league. Wise people still keep analog to this day because is reliable. Digital has its own technological challenges.

So analog tech has become as advanced as digital just because it is a South African analog obsolete platform? You guys are the same people posting photos of F-7 computers and Gripen computers to prove whole cockpit is obsolete....now you all gone mäd to praise analog equipment....honesty is impossible to find in South Africa.
