Read up, it's 13 Gripen pilots. If English fails you then find a Yoruba translator.

13 Jets kept operational at any one time.

Come back when you have a single operational 4th gen platform.

Henry120 is simply butthurt because, when they found their Tucano, it ended up costing about as much as a Gripen grin grin grin

The funny thing is, he's using the same arguments to justify the Tucano price tag, that he previously rubbished when used by Africaken to justify Kenya's Air Tractor deal.

abeg you guys should stop already nau. it's this kind of arguments i dislike.

sometimes you don't need to argue over everything.

we don't even know which century we'll be getting these platforms (if congress will ever permit it) and it's already included in your argument.

Honestly I wouldn't be thrilled if the SAAF got something as a dedicated attack platform.

You mean: apart from the Grip and Hawk

To be honest the A109 is the only thing we got from the arms deal that I am not wild about.

Its... an awkward platform. Its like halfway between an Alouette and an Oryx... weird size.

I have allways wondered why we didnt just get more Lynx's instead... or BK117's
The Lynx's weren't really part of the arms deal.

They were, they were supposed to be 6 of them. Thats for 5 for the frigates, then probably the extra one for training.

You are as confused as they come, clearly.

Come back and talk to me when there is verifiable....... Any evidence at all that the SAAF has more than 9 Gripen pilots.

The easy plane to fly has become an herculean task for the SAAF.
How am i confused?

In both cases i stated that the purchase price as stated included training

So you want to go down this road again?......not to long ago NAF only had 7 operational aircraft in its entire fleet.

Maybe the standards in NAF aren't that high but in SAAF only 1 year out of 5 is for basic flight training....so thus i expect any one with basic flight training even on a hawk will be able to fly a gripen....because its so easy as u say.

1. Skyraider isn't a ww2 plane

2. The skyraider isn't better than the super tucano. The skyraider can't load guided munitions, it has no modern avionics (still manual things like prop pitch and mixture), and it has no countermeasures.

The typhoon is even worse. Do you know the amount of pilots the typhoon killed? Things like the entire tail section coming off mid flight.

With all that said this is my first post on nairaland and I'm not sure if I'll post more. I only posted now because I know about ww2 and the comparison being drawn here was too much to ignore.

The answer is simple bro. We have to pay for the 59 tomahawk missiles used in Syria with some extra yet to be used before getting the propeller plane.

Can someone tell me why Afghanistan got 20 for 400+ million plus maintenance and training and Nigeria would get 12 of the same jet for 600 million. Are we getting technology transfer?

This is really funny.

Well its good you admitted you are not an expert, since the experts at the royal thai airforce chose the Gripen over the su30 which is much cheaper and much better according to you.
