One of the reasons I don't like to post in this thread is because of ignorant people and their gang up/bring him down mentality. ...Because you don't agree with a thread contributor's opinion doesn't give you the right to insult that person. State your opinion and leave it at that. Don't go insulting others. 7 Likes 1 Share |

jln115: This deserves a holistic rebuttal. Please I am Not Agaugust. And he can never be me. I am the one & only FieldMarshall..... Anyway, I knew Agaugust on Beegeagle blog and we had good discussions about military stuffs, but we are different people. I have been here long enough and you would have known by now if I was Agaugust. Apparently, he was your nemesis. The reason he had many arguments is the same reason I have arguments- because your ignorance stinks and I can't stand it. With your low reasoning, you keep arguing, which offends enlightened minds. I didn't have to argue on Beegs because we were all on the same level, socially and rationally. And we discussed soundly. But here people that cannot pass Jamb, will stick stubbornly with their ignorance. Many will even be insulting their ancestors. Sadly, these are people who are not qualified to be my driver in the real world. If not for love of military, we would never meet. That is the reason some of us are still angry with Beegs. If the blog was still on, you would not have soneone like me here. Anyway, back to hibernation mode. |

lionel4power:This is really bad and not expected from you. Both side have their claims which makes it interesting but they argue from different angles. A 2003 corolla is better that a 1980 Camry when it comes to technology. It might even be bigger than the Camry in size but that doesn't make the Camry less than a corolla. Aradu is old just as the technology is old. Refitting Aradu with recent tech cost almost twice the price of new Meko200. A recent corolla will have a lot of features that the a 1980 Camry doesn't have. To be sincere it might be better in everything because of the improvements in technology over time. and for this reason the other guys too have a point. So Aradu can't do what the meko200 will do because it will carry better sensors, sonar, radar, weapons generally even better helicopter. This is what the original argument was about and they both have points. 2 Likes |

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by kabe1: 6:38am On Oct 15, 2020 |
iblawi: Infact, the original argument which was very educative to see the arguments of both sides was that Aradu is or could be considered to be a Destroyer more than a Frigate. It was not about which is more modern than the other. Looking at the definition of a Destroyer, what capabilities does the Aradu bring in, Dragon2 was arguing that based on the Aradu's full spectrum capability, one could argue that during her hay days, she was a Destroyer. Also remember that the Nigerian navy had 2 or 3 ASW dedicated lynx helicopters also embarked on the Aradu. It was interesting to read the arguments of both sides. In my opinion I don't think the Aradu is a Destroyer, but you can see that while the US navy classifies the WASP which carries up to 24 units of 5th Generation fighter jets as an LHD, the Queen Elizabeth which carries practically the same complement of F-35s is classified as an Aircraft carrier. So, there is an important, educative argument to be had. Just like with the Aradu Destroyer argument. 3 Likes |

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by FieldMarshall06(m): 8:04am On Oct 15, 2020 |
Hennynitan: He was not willing to face my superior arguments, then he resorted to insults about new frigates & corvettes. I would have schooled him thoroughly. That's the problem here. If someone comes with superior points, they resort to insults to hide their ignorance,,,, and trust me, I will fire back. There is humility in learning. You gain more knowledge. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 8:26am On Oct 15, 2020 |
kabe1:Go look at the posts again and see who insulted who first and it's not that I disagree it's because his posting false information. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 8:29am On Oct 15, 2020 |
kabe1:I never argued that Aradu wasn't a destroyer, I simply stated that the Meko360 and Meko200 are in the same class. It's Dragon2 that claimed Aradu is somehow more effective and independent when it comes to full 4 dimensional warfare vs the Meko200...... This is what I had a problem with since it is entirely not true. 2 Likes |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by iblawi(m): 8:53am On Oct 15, 2020 |
jln115: That should solve the problem. It's not entirely true and dragon2 might agree with that too because he called it a mini destroyer and we know there is no class like that. It's either a frigate or a destroyer. The Nigeria navy called it a frigate but Argentines called it a destroyer. Cos it's a little in-between in it days (about 40 years ago). Don't forget Dragon2 also realize it's not a full destroyer as well and he called it a mini destroyer in it days not in modern time. |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 9:12am On Oct 15, 2020 |
iblawi:Im not disagreeing if its a destroyer or frigate, every country has a different doctrine on how they classify ships, HOWEVER what I have a problem with was dragon2 stating the Meko200 is not as independent or capable as the Meko360(taking age into account) because it lacks in ASW(because apparently it only has 4 torpedoes) hence its a Frigate vs Aradu which is a "mini Destroyer".........this statement is entirely baseless and untrue. Even by today's standards the Meko200 more specifically the Meko200AN is as heavily armed as ships twice its tonnage. 4 Likes |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by FieldMarshall06(m): 3:48pm On Oct 15, 2020 |
FieldMarshall06: In conclusion and to rebuff future lies. The Meko 360 and the Meko 200 are not and will never be in the same class. That is why they have different model numbers. The Meko 360 is superior by default functionalities/capabilities and that is the factory reason it was given model number 360. But the Meko 200 being more modern would have the advanced systems and technologies e.g. the Meko 200 would have an advanced radar or sonar than the Meko 360. That is the advantage of being a modern ship. It carries better technologies. But it is a lesser capable ship by design. Same way a Benz S-class would always have greater specs than the C-class. The year would never make a C-class become a S-class. Never. The Meko 200 and Meko 360 are never in the same class and never will be. Insults or not,,, we win wars. |

And yes, the new frigate for the Nigeria Navy is still on course. I am currently seeking factual evidence. If I get one, I will share it here. But I can't guarantee anything. |
