gottfried21: For a moment there, I thought you were a rapper. Anyway, i guess from the stand point of it been a force multiplier for your Navy, it is a good thing. They have excellent sea keeping characteristics, not a bad purchase. They'll also be upgraded, so essentially only the hull might be old. At least that's how i understand it. |

The only role I was envisaging for the Eland/AML was peacekeeping missions in Africa. For that you need a C-130 transportable platform and something that can maneuver (about turn) in congested and narrow city streets and jungle roads. Not many 8x8's that is light enough and has a decent turret for C-130. Stryker is about the only one. I've worked with both ratel 90's and Rooikat and would definately not recommend going back to Elands in any conventional mechanised org., but for the money you'd spend on upgrading a AML 90 VS. buying a new 8x8 it would be worth having a few for peacekeeping missions. If you had the budget you could go for something like the Panhard Crab Ps. I'd wager that that crew survived. If the IED penetrated you'd see blood all over the turret insides. kikuyu1: 2 Likes

saintjoel: That's the famous KRISS Vector SMG. In South Africa it's f#cking overpriced, you'll get 3 AR15 rifles with accessories for the price of that 1 SMG. I'm referring to the semiautomatic versions which we're allowed to purchase. ![]() 4 Likes |

Anyway the question is still there: how is their school organized? Do ss3 students have their own hostel? How is it possible that only ss3 students were kidnapped in the middle of the night by a group of armed men who are not well acquainted with the school? The whole chibok issue is a big scam! 1 Like |

I came across the Beretta ARX160 (civilian version) on a local gun website for the price of R10,950 ($800). I'm wondering why on earth is it costing the same as pistol. Where them soldiers at to explain this?
