africaken254: Yep. I also just found out about a new flaw in the Leo2A4, the drivers hatch is only 20mm thick and you can hit it straight on -rendering all its frontal armor useless. Funny how Leo2's were in Afghanistan for allmost a decade, yet only know we see the weaknesses. Shows how important proper use and training is! Canadians knew how to use and protect them, Turks are retarrds who dont - and now the Leo 2 has its first Acid-test.

Henry240: Having a gaping hole built into your frontal glacis is a problem that is neither black nor white. Parking your tanks on a hill without dismounts is just pure retarrdation. ISIS and the FSA should not be a formidable enemy, incompetence is what makes them formidable. 2 Likes |

patches689: Americans, Russians, French and British, all these countries have their creme de crop Special units operating in Syria supported respectively by a fleet of 30 of the most modern fighter jets. 120 fighter planes, yet we are still here 5 years on, still talking about Syria. It makes no sense, it simply means the fighting in Syria not the politics, the actual fighting isn't a zero's sum game. 1 Like |

patches689: Countries that have the world's best forward force projection don't need ground forces to deal with guys wearing slippers, head scarf and clutching AK-47s. Special forces are specifically designed to fight unconventional warfare. So if they can't do this, what then can they actually do? I could not careless about Turkey. |

patches689: You're holding brief for the big powers who are failing just as much as their not so buddy Turkey. Unconventional warfare is Special Forces turf. No excuses for them either . ![]() |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by patches689: 7:04pm On Dec 22, 2016 |
Henry240: The big powers dont have conventional ground forces in Syria. Special forces are not supposed to take and hold ground, air power cannot take and hold ground. The Syrian war is hardly unconventional, there are frontlines, there are areas of control. Its a fight for territory against the FSA and a war of attrition against ISIS. 2 Likes |

patches689: Not am excuse. Special forces are built specifically to fight unconventional battles. This is what Syria is, they got the air power, they regularly sling cruise missiles from 2000km away, they got highly trained commandos, they got thousands of other allied local soldiers, they all carry ATGMs, yet they still aren't making any progress . This is what Syria is, a giant cluster fvck were none of the big powers have done anything. If the commandos can't fight the unconventional warfare , what then can they actually do? What makes them Special? |

Henry240:Not necessarily. Semi-conventional. If one of the wanted any major city they would have done it within weeks. The quality of the special forces on the ground means those countries can avoid deploying heavy and high number of troops. |

Is anybody watching the lies on Aljazeera about the origins of of boko haram? Aljazeera is clearly sympathetic to boko haram And they get so called french experts to contribute analysis on boko haram origins French "specialists" who have never visited Nigeria and know nothing about ethno-religious issues in Nigeria. There are external western forces involved in this boko haram conspiracy http://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/specialseries/2016/11/boko-haram-rise-nigeria-armed-group-161101145500150.html 3 Likes |
