Where is NN likely to build big ships? Lagos or Port Harcourt? The industry seems growing too fast for the navy's pocket to buy such big ships and oil companies are used to doing lease from overseas. Lagos LADOL shipyard is expanding to build 40,000 tonne ships. I see overcapacity risk. Gotta go slow, NN is only building one landing ship this year. http://thenationonlineng.net/firm-invests-400m-in-vessel-fabrication-integration-yard/ Pic....Navy visits onne shipyard

gottfried21: So much talk that couldn't materialised either. What is so sad is that he couldn't fight in either Windhoek or Johannesburg but Apartheid forces invaded his land and he disappeared in exile for 30 good years. That man is more like so many former ANC military wing called Mkhonto we Sizwe (MK) who fled the country yet could speak volume about their bravery. Cowards is their name. 2 Likes |

Msauza:It was a great speech made to resonate among the PLAN ranks. It was difficult to maintain morale of the chaps in the military camps as conditions were really harsh. He.ll even MK spoke about fighting all the way street by street to the Union building. |

Msauza:MK initially tried to have it's HQ in SA. But after the arrest of the ANC leadership/high command including Madiba at the farm HQ a decision was made to have their HQ outside. Speaking about bravery well it took balls to infiltrate into then Rhodesia(Zimbabwe), South West Africa(Namibia) and South Africa as failure often meant death or life in Robben island. There was no way similar from ZIPRA, PLAN to MK could they have taken on the oppressive governments' security forces conventionally. |

agaugust: Any capital ships would be built at the Naval dockyard in Lagos. However facilities aplenty were builds can be done. The Nigerian Navy budget for the acquisition of "Capital Patrol Ships" in 2016, do you know the specifics of what this means? *correction : the Navy would build one landing ship and one survey ship. 2 vessels in all. |

agaugust: 1. Watching videos of their use - they are stationary when firing 2. Neither do you, and most of Amisoms operations are in the bush 2.a those big 12,5s are useless in Fibua unless used in the conventional sense 3. So you are saying you normally have 2km line of sight in cities? Mortars didn't cause any problems for MONUSCO Stop chopping and changing your opinion. And most of all - stop telling AMISOM what to do, since their achievements greatly outshine your own. 1 Like |

. As part of the revitalised Rooivalk Mk 2 programme, Denel is moving forward with certifying the Mokopa missile on the aircraft and two missiles were fired during the Rooivalk demonstration on 3 and 4 February, 2016. The Rooivalk launched the acclaimed 10 km range missile at a range of 8 km, which followed the laser beam from the Gripen, but narrowly missed the target. Source : defenceweb, 7 hours ago. http://itweb.co.za/mobilesite/defenceweb/home/item_id-42356/ Guided missile Mokopa of 10 km range MISSED TARGET at 8 km firing range, so what will happen at 10 km ? What will happen if an attack helicopter missile misses a radar guided anti-aircraft SAM system like Pantsir in real war, not against rag tag rebels ? . 3 Likes 1 Share
