Namibia or Zambia? Seeing he was talking about Ebola, which occurs in DRC and is bordered by Zambia?
Post away, authority to hold anybody to account here was chucked a long time ago.

He was definitely referring to us would not be the first time I've heard a foreigner pronounce Namibia as "Nambia" before,unfortunately.

You know, I have been studying the ARA original design vs the actual product (because GreenandGold had been posting his modifications).

I wonder how Proforce managed not to stay true to their own CAD designs.

you know south Africans budget is far higher than Nigeria right, By a massive margin i dont mean economy i mean budget so yeah the money is not there

Are you coming here with facts? Didn't you get the memo about self-esteem and patriotism?
We're all supposed to come here and peacock about how we're the giant of this and giant that, reality be damned.

Alas! It's Drumpf, so we'll never know. Well, until the speech-writer is fired and he releases a tell-all book.

There's a very simple answer that some will find difficult to swallow. Its easy making nice drawings, but something completely different when it comes to fabrication. Drawing is nice, actually making is not so easy.

Gottfried21, by all means, you can be.

With my limited CAD knowledge dictates you design a product you can actually fabricate. Looking at the ARA CAD I see that they could have actually produced the vehicle simply because they used edged angles which are easier to produce if your fabrication knowledge is still limited.


They made errors by placing the wheels just below the hull when they could have been at least 50cm further on the sides. That would have afforded them space to place the compartments above the wheels.

Jf17 thunder is not coming. The CAS didn't mention anything about it again despite the fact that he mentioned super mushak from Pakistan. This is today's paper.

Bidexiii posted the full lecture on his thread, even the drones from UAE were mentioned.

It seems the current CAS doesn't like the jf17 and might be cancelled in favor of mig 29.

We de read the same post twice fa

I've lost all hope.

I'm no longer borthered with how the situation develops.

Did the minister even mention the Mig-29 at all? He only really spoke about the Yak in passing terms.

If you have a link please post.

Forget about these lazy punch newspaper editors and their “mi-35 fighter jet” Story.
If you have time here’s the full lecture given by the chief of Air Staff.

hmmmm


nigeria

I have a hunch that the JF-17s are already here and they are hiding them from public eyes. Otherwise, why would a pilot have an insignia of the Jet when they are not here already?
Plus, I have never seen that pilots in an Alpha jet before.
