Quite interesting. cool

Looking at the ARA quite closely, it's armour can quite easily be replaced. It is detachable.

Similar to what you have on the PF2 attached.

Very cool and smart thinking.
You sure say that PF2 no come pick u for house cheesy

I have visited that site b4 and I can't believe I skipped that part

I used to think the advanced training was based on preference


Anyway a better way of putting it is their records remain unmatched as all this training can be taught by other first class units

Gareth Newham - Institute of Security Studies
Being"The Best" and "One of the Best" are two entirely different things.

Vividly recollect someone said something similar to this on the ARA and all hell was loose on him.
Claiming your country has the Best Police STF the world over is something I find too extreme.
I can't even argue this with you guys because the load of sh1ts I saw on 10 pages back weakens me. Ah! It's something else. grin

Bro do some research before making ret@rded statements......go read up on the operations morero and vimbezela, get an idea why we were in CAR

Then for good measure Google the Special Task Force.......you will find that they are tasked for INTERNAL security....do you know what internal means??

That's what i said. The most accurate way of putting it is to describe the unit as one of the best in the world.
There is a difference btw one of the best and the best.

And the NN invested another 8.5 million dollars for armaments and sensors emplacements to its own specification and classified it a frigate. In Africa today it is larger than the flagship of many countries and has the longest range of any ship on the continent at 9,600 nautical miles translated at 17,800km at 20 knots. It has an onboard R-MACK system which can detect and track all vessels in the Gulf of Guinea.

No one said they were the best. I'll repeat for the last time, at that level it's irrelevant trying to rate. Same as trying to find the best between SAS and Delta. I said their training can't be matched.....by pretty much all police units out there (local & global).

The statement in red is in contradiction to the one in green. Something Unmatched is something in its own class....simply put, it's second to none which make it the Best.
C'mon buddy, you know better than to twist words.

I know how to spell best. I would have simply said "they're the best police unit in the world".....and I was very careful to always use the word training. Number of those who apply, compared to those who qualify....maybe someone can show me other police units that have similar drop out rates, there are very few. And its pointless trying to say who exactly is best from those few, so they all have equal rights. But ya, nuff said.

Try a another one on someone who knows nothing. $8.5m on a 52year old granny Hammilton Class Cutter and then come here and try claim its one of the best on the continent can only be done by you. Who cares about the R-mack system its a useless ship and its beyond me why come here and claim the contrary.

The only thing that ship can be used for is cadet training.

This guy.. The Gulf of Guinea is 2,350,000 km2, there's no ship radar that can scan that much area.

No offense Nigeria will kick your Butt's anyday any time

You See everything you ve just listed. Those are the kind of nonsense equipment that would make France very happy to side with the Cameroonians. All those rusty Nigerian Navy Coast Guard assets. If France find out that it will suffer little or no casualties by siding with the Cameroonians then it would. You think France would be scared of Roland Anti aircraft systems? That would even make France want to fly it's planes over our airspace. Dropping bombs on everything we love and cherish. I personally wish they would start the stu#id ship house at Abuja.where all the stu#id defence procurement decisions are made and where all the thieves that have compromised our national security over time are sitting sipping tea and getting fat. I know an attack from a very capable outside force is what these stupid politicians need to know that national security is not guaranteed by years and years of looting defence money. National security should not be a question of if? It should be a question of when ?
Imagine see the stu#id things that a citizen of an oil producing nation is listing as very "powerfull". You never see. When the time comes all the lies that you guys try to convince yourself with here would just be some disturbing statement on history pages too hard a mistake to ignore by the young generation whose future we ve battered for our selfish interest. You want to invade Cameroon? You think nations don't take their national security seriously? You think France will sit back and watch you use your rusted Cold War era planes and equipment to bring down one of her most prosperous strong old in SSA? weldone sir.
