you bragged a lot how saudi wanted to buy your armed seeker 400 UCAV,recently we found out they opted to buy chinese CH-4 UCAV in simple english for you to understand.
stop acting like a m@roon !in simple english for you to process ,a 52 caliber artillery has a better range than 39/45 caliber artillery due to increase length of the barrel

Looks like africaken254 hasn't recover yet:

-hallucinates that i brag about the Seeker 400......sorry to break it to you buddy but i don't think i've mentioned anything about the Seeker400 in months, and when i did mention it, it was about SAAF reactivating 10sqd!

-"52 caliber artillery has a better range than 39/45 caliber artillery due to increase length of the barrel" ........Caliber=Barrel Length

-G6/5s are not built in 155mm caliber anymore they are built in 52,45 and 39mm caliber thus simple mortars are larger in caliber!

africaken254:
are you trying to win an award as the dumbest person of the year

155mm is the NATO standard barrel bore size(calibre or caliber is the approximate internal diameter of the barrel)

39,45 and 52 calibre or caliber is the refers to the barrel length

Wikipedia says Zambia operates Ratel IFV's...any pics of them?

The Zambia Police Service has unveiled a new fleet of 18 armoured vehicles to be used for crowd control during protests.

Inspector General of Police Kakoma Kanganja announced that Government has provided the resources in the quest to modernize the police service.

“We have acquired 3 Marauders for the Paramilitary Unit and 15 Mavericks for general policing. Officers will indeed undergo training in the use and maintenance of these vehicles.” he said.

Mr Kanganja said the armoured vehicles were fully equipped to quell any volatile situation.

In January 2015, Government announced that it had purchased three choppers for the Zambia Police Service to improve operations.

jakeporeshenko:

Moroccan VIP Jet Gets LAIRCM
Oct 16, 2007 15:45 UTC by Defense Industry Daily staff

Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation of Rolling Meadows, IL received a firm-fixed price contract modification for $15 million, pursuant to a letter contract for foreign military sales case number MO-D-QAD for one Moroccan Head of State Aircraft Large Aircraft Infrared Countermeasures (LAIRCM) system. LAIRCM has become a popular way to protect large transport aircraft; it uses sensors to detect incoming infrared-guided missiles, then throws it off course using targeted laser pulses. The exact aircraft was not specified, but based on the Alkowat al malakiya al jawiya’s order of battle , our bet is on the transcontinental Falcon 50 business jet based at Rabat Sale.

Elbit Offers Missile Countermeasures
Oct 19, 2014

With the growing concern, demand for military type countermeasures is increasing, as business jet operator demand the best protection hitherto available only to VVIPs of the wealthiest of nations.

As one of the leaders in the area of missile countermeasures, Israel’s Elbit Systems has recently completed the certification of its MUSIC Directional Countermeasure System (DIRCM) on commercial aircraft, and has installed such countermeasures on the first VIP aircraft. More installations are in progress, awaiting final configuration certification says Dany Slasky, vice president Airborne, EO and Lasers at Elbit’s ElOp subsidiary.

“With threats becoming realistic, operators and owners and business people are concerned, demanding instant solutions. We are witnessing a growing awareness to the threat, and demand to protect aircraft,” he  notes.

How much protection do such DIRCMs provide? “MANPADS is by far the No.1 military threat to aircraft, representing 95% of all threats,” he says. “With DIRCM on board, the platform’s survivability improves dramatically.”

Elbit Systems, of Israel, has also developed a DIRCM system for the protection of civilian aircraft against MANPADS called the Multi-Spectral Infrared Countermeasure (MUSIC), a nacelle-mounted, fully automatic system that detects, acquires, tracks and counters an incoming missile. It has been installed on governmental or VIP aircraft thus providing protection against MANPADS, including the most recent ones, some of which were simulated during EMBOW XIII, always in combination with droppable IR flares for improved all-aspect protection.

depends on the terrain, those AFSF hot shots won't agree with you. they rule the NE battlefield. what i like about SBS is how independent they are.
