Tinfoil:I'm not insinuating anything Buddy. Your antecedent on this thread speaks volume. Your post(s) might be africa related but they are way posted in mockery of 'some' african militaries which suggest you are more attuned and symphatetic to terrorists course(especially that of Al-shabab). I believe we are both dwelling on Patches assertion(s) rather than Africaken's. And BTW, is Africaken a Female? Hope you aint offended Sire? |

Patchesagain:The terrorists can keep on trying but the Iraqi army has just pushed through to the Tigris river. Funny the cannon fodders used in suicide attacks do not think of the fear of their own leaders who push them, but then try to scamper away when it's their turn to die. |

hi guys where is everybody ? looks like this time henry240 himself got confiscated last time it was his mobile phone that got confiscated lol mi35 ver Rooivalk contest going on.... let me take some pot shots at it provided i dont get killed by counter fire MI 35 is troopship/gunship combo , highly suitable for low - medium threat environment. Rooivalk is a dedicated AH suitable for high threat environment. if a Apache attacks a MI 35 and a Rooivalk which one will have a higher survival chance (neglect the pilot skills ) ? MI35 and Rooivalk r not even in the same category as i pointed out above. i would use MI 35 for creation/sanitation of LZ inside hostile territory , special heliborne operations , Counter-insurgency operations , combat search and rescue operations. and if i dont have a dedicated attack helicopter then i would have to use MI35 for Counter Surface Force Operations. i would use Rooivalk for destruction of Enemy Air Defenses (DEAD) missions , high intensity Counter Surface Force Operations , air defense against helicopters and UAVs, high altitude warfare , recon/scout role during kargil war MI35 was found useless since it could not operate at high altitude again MI35 is a beast - a sponge for taking punishment and surviving nobody can compare a MACHETE(MI35) and a RAPIER(Rooivalk) different design philosophy , different niche roles with some overlapping capabilities limited by the user skill/tactics etc i also left out pilot skills , tactics and other things which can turn the tables on either side would any of u waste time comparing the gorgeous 'out of reach' ladies/gals or just look at them appreciate them and enjoy them. (and start making plans on how to get em ) just do the same for weapons jln115: i think the highest service ceiling/hover now belongs to another attack helicopter guys thats it, see u next Sunday 11 Likes |

nemesis2u:Nope! no AH even comes close to the Rooivalks out-of-ground effect hover ceiling! "It has outstanding "hot and high" performance, illustrated by its 5,545m "out-of-ground effect" hover ceiling (the height at which it can hover without the cushion of air caused by rotor downwash). The next best is the US Apache (3,866m), followed by the Russian Mi-28 and Ka-52 (3,600m); the Franco-German Tiger (3,200m) and the Chinese WZ-10 (2,000m). The Rooivalk also has the highest cruise speed, the best rate of climb and the best range/weapons load performance, and shares with the Tiger the best power to weight ratio, all factors critical in operations and combat." http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/rsa/rooivalk-mk2.htm Honestly if i had to pick an AH to fight for MY life on African soil.....Ill take the Rooivalk over the Apache any day of the week! |

nemesis2u: And who says the MI-35M can't conduct DEAD and SEAD missions, you? The MI-35M carries ATGMs and Anti-Air missiles. It is faster, heavier, proven and an advanced combat system. Improvements have been made in the MI-35m which include main and tail rotor improvements for it to operate effectively in Mountainous and high altitude environments. Afghan helos operate in those environments without incidence. 2 Likes |
