jln115: SAAF A-109 crashes are mainly a result of pilot error. Three pilot-error CFIT crashes during low-level tactical flight operations or training. Two mechanical failures in 2010 (later corrected) causing hard landings: A swash plate control rod break & a tail rotor failure. The cause of the April 2019 crash has not yet been released. |

jln115: Budget being the major determinant I'd have gone for 5 or 6 rebuilt Su 25s for that price. |

The military base of the armed forces of Mali was attacked by the #ISWAP jihadists. Scores of Malian soldiers are reportedly killed, can't post the pictures. Am not surprised seeing Malian ISWAP wearing our woodland camouflage.

#ISIS West Africa Province #ISWAP pledges allegiance to new #ISIS Caliph Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi Qurashi in Nigeria. Note array of arms they are with... Armbrust anti-tank launcher, AKM/AKMS/AK-47/AK-103, PKM, AGL etc. Anyways some of them are already kissing the ass of there 72 virgins. 2 Likes

Xbee007: True yarn mate...... Look at the pictures well, to me these base are way protected compared to NA bases |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by Odunayaw(m): 9:19pm On Nov 19, 2019 |
bidexiii:That base doesn't look poorly built. What happened! |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by Xbee007(m): 10:01pm On Nov 19, 2019 |
bidexiii:I could see some Hesco sandbags in the pictures. However, they are not tall enough. And you could actually see the terrorists using their barriers against them just like we see in most ISWAP attacks on NA bases. Barriers surrounding a base should be high enough so that people don't lean on it and shoot the heck out of the people within the base. |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by bidexiii: 10:04pm On Nov 19, 2019 |
Odunayaw: Nothing happened mate.....they base got overran |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by LTGEN: 10:45pm On Nov 19, 2019 |
bidexiii:The fact that they attacked over large flat terrain speaks to leadership challenges in the Malian army. Very careful NOT to speak or criticize military operations that information is scant on. I am sure in the coming days we will find out how this base was overrun. |

kikuyu1:I disagree!! much more you can do with a Jf17 than with a su25..... |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by bidexiii: 5:07am On Nov 20, 2019 |
LTGEN: Are you know Kidding me.....? What's wrong with a flat terrain, in fact that's should be an advantage to the soldier defending the Base. And this is not just a flat terrain/base, a well protected one. Am sure it was formerly used by French soldiers, now been used by the Malian forces. |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by bidexiii: 5:28am On Nov 20, 2019 |
Xbee007: The issue is most African soldiers morale are low and considering the poor training. Going by the pictures am seeing, the Base protection/height is okay. They have centenary/observing post which they should have spotted the attack miles away. The rule is never let these guys get close to you, hEll they will brake your line of defence and confusion will set in, especially in the night. Considering the picture and time of the attack if am right, says a lot about our military |

jln115: Current priority imo is ground attack for which the -25 Is tailor made. Also the price factor. |
Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by Nobody: 7:49am On Nov 20, 2019 |
kikuyu1:Exactly!! With the Jf17 you get a decent multi role platform which can carry PGMs and practically do everything the su25 can do but can also serve as an air superiority fighter if needed. Also the Jf17 isn't that expensive 3 Likes 1 Share |

This morning, I experienced Joy troops moving out, I suspect that they are troops of 6BN FOB Bonny based on the description on their vehicle.. it was a large number of soldiers, two trucks fully loaded and like 3-4 gun trucks. But I was disappointed at the gun trucks ... How can they have like 3 gun trucks without a Gpmg or Dshk or Pkm, they only had Ak's on them and the Soldier Manning the gun port placed his Ak there (I wanted to laugh oo..but they were not smiling with anybody) |

Xbee007: They should be made not just high enough but in a way that the outside part of the barrier should be made very steep or perpendicular so that the insurgents will not be able to climb up easily. This is some of the advantages of Hesco sand bags. 3 Likes |
