giles14: What ever Libya had before the fall is probably up gor grab. I would not be shocked if SA made 50cal snipers ended up in BH hands since we sold Libya a bunch before there fall. |

tdayof: I would not even both with the RWR. BH does not use radar. And yes a MAW could easily be developed or a production right aquired from some one. They would be critical if BH started firing MANPADS at air craft. |

andrewza:haha so you are saying our airforce now have to start turning their head in search of manpads when flying? lol. AFIT should do something towards the MAW. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by andrewza: 3:04pm On Aug 08, 2016 |
tdayof: They should And should have a MAW. I think some of your choppers and aircraft may of come with a MAW. But all your aircraft need them. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by tdayof(m): 3:33pm On Aug 08, 2016 |
andrewza:yes. They should come with MAW. |

andrewza: Even a plane has MAW ,can not gurrantee not been shot down.It depends on how advance the MAW and counter measure is, as latest missle has 2 guidances,and anti jamming mechanism. the SA-7 manpads is 1 gen manpad only have 1 guidence, easy to deal with, however the 3 gen MANPADS has been used in Syria can identify flares thus making flares useless.for a plane flying above 700m/s like F-7 is relatively safe as most MANPADS fly lower than this speed,and altitude is also important.. |

andrewza: Funny enough the Ukrainians did away with this bit of inherited Soviet doctrine. Wrongly in my opinion. They kept all the other nonsense which is why their choppers are so useless in the DRC. |

Nigerdeltaboi: It's unfortunate that we've allowed common criminals acquire Manpads. At the end of the day, if we had stood by Ghadaffi, ensued a proper power transition instead of butt-licking the US and NATO into an intervention in Libya, Boko-Haram would have been well contained.

Nigerdeltaboi:most of the weapons meant for hamas in gaza ended up with ISIS in sinai ,we as africa need to realise that as long as we continue to neglect conflicts going on around us.one day those conflicts will come to haunt us.also most of our borders are porous and insecure,we assume that because we are safe in our cities we are safe.we have poorly run and equipped militarizes ,while consciously knowing the new emerging threat. while still assuming we can have economic prosperity .most parts of our countries are in accessible due to poor infrastructure,while still we wonder why its insecure ! in 2007 an ethiopian Hind was shot-down using a manpad in mogadishu by islamic courts union (alshabaab was a member of that coalition) A helicopter has been shot down in the Somali capital, as Ethiopian and Somali government troops battle to clear insurgents from Mogadishu.read more http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/6509729.stm
