Marius Hayes, NSRI ASR (Airborne Sea Rescue) station commander, said: An Airborne Sea Rescue operation was carried out late Saturday afternoon, 17th August, to airlift a 41 year old male crewman suffering a medical emergency off a research ship 20 nautical miles off shore of Hondeklipbaai, between Lamberts Bay and Kleinsee, on the West Coast MRCC (Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre) in conjunction with the SA Air Force (SAAF) tasked an SAAF 22 Squadron Oryx helicopter with a SAAF flight team, NSRI airborne rescue swimmers and WC Government Health EMS rescue paramedic after an EMS duty doctor evaluated the patient by communications with the ship and it was deemed necessary to patient evacuate the man as soon as possible. The SAAF 22 Squadron Oryx helicopter lifted off at Ysterplaat Air Force base at 17h00 and rendezvoused with the ship just before sunset. The EMS rescue paramedic and an NSRI ASR rescue swimmer were lowered onto the ships deck. The patient was medically assessed and then hoisted into the helicopter in a rescue basket and airlifted in the care of the EMS rescue paramedics directly to a Cape Town hospital in a serious but stable condition. NSRI Port Nolloth, NSRI Lamberts Bay and NSRI Mykonos remained on alert throughout the helicopter rescue operation. VHF Marine Radio Communications were assisted by Telkom Maritime Radio Services and Transnet National Ports Authority and MRCC remained on alert during the operation. The operation was completed at 20h30. https://www.nsri.org.za/2019/08/incidents-west-coast-vaal-dam-plettenberg-bay-langebaan-lagoon/?fbclid=IwAR0gpW1ibZglBffWOvTTM0D6W_yiU1naOGOk4I_cNwlFIJsS4bAVlYumrS4 4 Likes

gripenc: I could be wrong but why don't other ecowas nations especially the francophone ones purchase APCs or small arms and equipment like vests, mortars, bullets etc from Nigeria? They seem to be pretty descent and could probably be sold for a better deal considering the regional union and how fast they could be delivered. Just saying no shade towards SA. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by GreenandGold: 6:46pm On Aug 20, 2019 |
AskiaHarem: The Casspirs could have been surplus equipment which could have been destined for scraping. What the SA Army does is to give them away to interested African countries on condition those countries pay for refurbishment and shipping costs. This is still cheaper than buying new equipment. 1 Like |

AskiaHarem: Germany paid for the 29 Casspirs. "The Malian Armed Forces yesterday announced that the donated equipment included 29 Casspirs, 4 100 bullet resistant vests, 4 300 combat boots and 2 700 ballistic helmets." https://www.defenceweb.co.za/featured/mali-receives-donated-casspir-armoured-personnel-carriers/ |
