Can someone please identify the weapon?

HK 17 or 11. You can see its G3ish lines.

For those who frequent this site just out of general curiosity. The highlighted section above is a prime example of someone literally just making sh1.t up as he goes along.

If the situation ever came about that the decicated pilot cannot fly the aircraft (perhaps killed by ground fire), the remaining poor soul will have to do everything in his power to either defend himself or get that aircraft out of there as soon as he can. Meaning which the airframe will probably be pushed to its maximum design limitations.

So where does the ease in pilot training come in? He or she will have to handle that aircraft just as well as a dedicated pilot in order to survive. Meaning he or she went through the same rigorous training routine.

While retaining all the attack helicopter functions, Mi-28NE with dual controls considerably simplifies the military pilot training process.

Reading is not a crime.

MI-28NE (Algeria) - Best AH in Africa
Apache AH-64D (Egypt) - 2nd place
MI-35m (Nigeria) - 3rd

Fidha254:
1-Kenya Navy in Lamu
2,3 -Kenya navy CDU
4 -Kenya army having a moment with Kids in Kuday,Somalia

Exactly which 2 hulls are those,Fidha254?

Henry240:

MI-28NE (Algeria) - Best AH in Africa
Apache AH-64D (Egypt) - 2nd place
MI-35m (Nigeria) - 3rd

Because you say so?

Well done for not disproving his argument. No one is trying to say it doesnt have that capability... tardo

Anyway, so simplified training makes a thing more advanced?

So now a Golden Eagle is more advanced than an F-22... because: "simplified training"

Your Henry is derailing.

Thing is, I am allways here.

Been here since before you.

Im like the F22

Normally, Im in super-cruise, sensors on passive mode... stealthy... just enjoying the scenery. You dont know Im there. But I am.

Then, when Henry120 scrambles in his P.O.S Mig with RD-33 engines spewing smoke and aluminium powder (as they slowly eat themselves) with his R.C.S comparable to a mid-sized family sedan, his sensors grainy and full of false echoes, and intent that can only be defined as hostile...

I switch over to active mode. When I go active your scope starts lighting up with signals as I fire off my payload, by which point, its too late for Henry120.

Soon he will begin screaming for Mods who will turn on the S-300's and force me to clear the airspace.

MikeCZA:
Your Henry is derailing.

You must be blind.

You don't see me posting Africa related content. Can that be said of Patches689 ?

If I get him banned now, most of you South-Africans would be crying blue-murder.

OMG

Holy sh1t, thats hilarious.

patches689:


- Derails thread
- Gets BTFO
- Threatens to call mods.

Say it with me: TURBO-FAGGIT

You probably haven't noticed, I don't usually respond to your post. You don't contribute meaningfully , you don't tailor arguments to Africa related content.

You just post irrelevant arguments. What I can actually do is get you some serious ban, but I'll it be.

That Nigerian guy is notorious for derailing this wonderful thread.

Henry240:


You don't contribute meaningfully.

Except for:

patches689:


My favorit part about the Mi35 is how if you pull hard evasive maneuvers you chop your own tail off.... or how you cant hover under combat conditions.

Or how it cant do NOE (unlike the other 3 platforms), or how it has no meaningful netcentric warfare capabilities and mediocre EW capabilities (Export = No Vitebsk EW module for you!).

Mi35M is a great bird, rugged, well armored, robust... a hammer for any nail. But to try argue its "amongst the most advanced in Africa" is absolute foolishness. You are trying to tell us a hammer is a scalpel.

The Algerian Mokopa armed Lynx, for example, is more advanced.

Which you ignored, because you know you got BTFO...

Like I said stop u saying things with out facts
I have been here since page 1, ask Henry the fine gentleman responsible for this brilliant thread

IbnSultaan:

Henry is dealing by;

- Spreading false news - Trying to undermine facts - Refusing to post reputable sources - etc

I provide for more detail for my arguments than henry120 does.

But if you insist

Hind cuts off its own tail -
http://www.vrtulnik.cz/teorie/podchvat.htm

Hovering issues

Its high loaded weight can also limit its effectiveness as a helicopter, some reports state that with a full load the Hind needs a rolling take-off and also cannot hover. The problems with the dual-role Hind have prompted the development of the Mil Mi-28 and also the Kamov Ka-50 to replace it in the gunship role.
Also, the wings interfere with the aircraft's ablity to hover and take off vertically. In fact, the Hind is certified to hover for only about 200 hours during its entire lifetime, a consequence of its emphasis on forward speed.

KRET Vitbesk - only for top line Russian units (so far)

Anyone else want to get BTFO today?

The boy doesn't even try to bother to even post on topic. He doesn't bother tailoring any contribution towards Africa, just posts constant irrelevant European content.

Hind is not african?


Then you posted off topic as well... dipsh1t

Face it, you got fvcking rek'd (again)... and now you are desperately muddying the waters with cries of "off topic" to try to save face.

patches689:


Hind-35M is not african?


Then you posted off topic as well... dipsh1t

It is in service with the Nigerian Air Force.

You don't have to be spoon-fed.

My argument hasn't changed. I usually don't see the need to respond to your posts.

Henry240:

You don't have to be spoon-fed.

So i am off topic how?

Because ~3 of the dozen pictures I just posted are not specifically African? Even though YOU changed the topic to Hind-35M v Other's?

Seriously? This is how you try to save face?

Dude, get a grip.

The Algerian Mokopa armed Lynx, for example, is more advanced.

To avoid this nonsense in future:

Every system in the Nigerian military - currently and in the future - is the best in Africa south of the Sahara!!!

There, now may we never hear it!

Henry240:


Including South-Africa.

The Apache, MI-28 and MI-35m are currently the most advanced Attack Helicopters in Africa.

I think the Algerian MI-28 with dual controls is the most advanced AH in Africa.

This is my position, it hasn't changed.

Henry240:


This is my position, it hasn't changed.

Why? Why do you hold this position?

Tell us why.

You cant tell us why, can you?

You *need* it to be this way because for you... its emotional.

@frumentius

Whats the deal here?

These guys all MRS?

Whats with the gear progression... they seem to have gone from Army surplus... to TACTICOOL(TM)... back to Army
