[size=14pt]No way ignorant bush man !

Now I know South Africa does NOT have any tank like Nigeria's modern T-84 Oplot.

Our new tank CANNOT be penetrated by any weapon or missile in Africa !

Explosive Reactive Armour (ERA) is out-dated when used alone....

Nigeria's T-84 Oplot has 3 different types of armour combination.


1. Composite multi-layer armour
2. ERA armour
3. Rolled Steel

All three types of armour built into one single Nigerian army tank ! Wow ! Best tank in Africa !


You just wasted your time writing a useless analysis of South African anti-tank missiles Ingwe and Mokopa or Milan that CANNOT penetrate modern day Multi-Layer Composite armour of Nigerian T-84

Your missiles are built to penetrate only ERA...Explosive Reactive Armour....Reactive armour, but unfortunately for SANDF our new Naija super tank has multi-layer Composite Non-Reactive armour on all vital areas....Passive armour multi-layers is on Nigerian army's mighty T-84 tank o ! Yeeeeeh !! South African army is finished ooooo !!

South African anti-tank missiles have failed, your army in now defenseless against the onslaught of Nigerian army T-84 ultra-modern tanks.

Gripen jet bombs CANNOT penetrate our T-84 tank o !

Nigerian army T-84 has composite impenetrable armour, and more than that....

.

While you are behaving like a clown

let me remind you:

1. You dont actually have the T-84
2. It doesnt have composite armor - layered =/= composite
3. Yes, 227kg of high-explosive JDAM will annihilate it
4. Cant defend against the milimeter-band seeker on the Makopa
5. Cant defend against short range attacks from Ingwe or Milan (no reaction time for the crew) - we like to fight close when we fight tanks, just ask the Cubans

Rest of your post is irrelevant pea-cocking from a small child. Those systems are reliant on the skills of the operator, and Nigeria has no tank battle experience - so according to your own argument Nigeria will be unable to use it properly

You say Nigeria had Tucano's and T-72's last year - and yet it does not show up on SIPRI

in anycase would a responsible person not wait until they can prove they have what they say they have?

Proof is that people who know these weapons say them face to face, that is proof, seeing is believing.

Fact that you have never seen Yvonne Chaka Chaka's NNIPPLES does not mean she does not have two units, another man has been seeing them under her clothes and he is a reliable source.

Super Tucano was sighted this year around April-May, SIPRI compiles January to March and published update in April. It will miss Tucano.

T-72 is about to be unleashed in North East war together with BM-30 Smerch 90km long range artillery, I have not posted that yet, people have seen T-72 in Nigeria this month. Slowly we will unleash and photos will follow....Nigeria is building Africa's best army now !

MY ADVICE IS THAT, IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A SOURCE TO BACK YOUR CLAIMS RATHER KEEP IT TO YOURSELF. IT IS EASIER TO CLAIM THAN TO SUBSTANTIATE AND BACK YOUR STATEMENTS WITH RELIABLE SOURCE. IT WILL BE VERY UNFAIR IF SOUTH AFRICANS CAN CLAIM HARDWARE THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE.

I hear SANDF projected its force all the way to Nigeria yesterday and zapped Nigeria's air space and territory; and flew right out with South Africans?

Nope, ALL South African Missiles can penetrate ONLY reactive armour RHA, you CANNOT penetrate composite armour of the T-84 Oplot Tank.

Security Agencies Probing Whether Boko Haram’s Shekau Killed

22 Sep 2014
Font Size: a / A

Nigerian  Defence Headquarters Abuja



Camerounian forces engage sect in fierce battle   Insurgents surrender following battle of Kodunga


Senator Iroegbu with agency report

Nigerian security agencies are reviewing information that Abubakar Shekau, the leader of the Boko Haram Islamist militant group, may have been killed in a battle with the military, a person familiar with the investigation was quoted as saying by Bloomberg at the weekend.


Shekau may have been killed in the fighting near Konduga in Borno State, according to a security official who asked not to be identified because an official statement had not been made by the government.


The Nigerian armed forces last week said in a Twitter posting that over 60 Boko Haram militants had been killed and a senior Boko Haram leader had been captured in the battle at Konduga, a strategic town 40 kilometres away from Maiduguri, the Borno State capital.


The leader, who wasn’t identified by the armed forces, was being treated at a military hospital, the statement added.


The military last year said Shekau might have been killed in a June 30 battle. But he later appeared in a video sent to reporters as proof that he was still alive.
However, there appeared to be confusion among intelligence and military sources as to whether the person killed or captured in Konduga last week was Shekau or an imposter, as some sources were very emphatic that a body double, claiming to be the sect’s leader, had been appearing in Boko Haram propaganda videos for months.


When contacted on the issue, security sources confirmed that they were indeed trying to verify if Shekau or his impostor was either killed or captured in Konduga.
According to an intelligence source who spoke to THISDAY, the Boko Haram commander, who was reported to have been captured during the Konduga battle last Wednesday is suspected to be the person impersonating or acting as a body double for the terrorist leader.


THISDAY findings further revealed that the military and other intelligence agencies were still reviewing the information but would not make any official statement until they were 100 per cent certain that the commander, who shares similar features with Shekau was actually the Boko Haram leader or his double.
“We believe it may be the man acting as Shekau but we are not emphatic yet. The armoured personnel carrier that was captured during the Konduga battle was simply too similar to the one he uses in his video propaganda and the features are strikingly similar as well.


“The intelligence agencies are still studying his pictures and recordings and we are not in a hurry to make this official until we are very certain,” the source said.
Speaking to THISDAY, another top military officer explained that the security and intelligence agencies were “being very cautious this time around because of the previous mistake”.


“You know the issue of whether Abubabakar Shekau is dead or alive is still very much contentious, even though we believe that he was killed last year and what you are seeing right now are various impostors acting in his name. There were similar cases during the Second World War when Adolf Hitler had many doubles. The same applied to Saddam Hussein of Iraq when he was alive,” the source explained.
Another source at Defence Headquarters (DHQ) said: “Still in the process of confirming that the person we have is the same as that character who has been posing as Shekau. He is definitely a very prominent terrorist commander. I don’t want to say anything official on this yet please.”


He however volunteered that the person who was captured last week held considerable sway in the sect’s foot soldiers, as many of them were forced to flee to safe havens across the border in Cameroun in recent days.


This was confirmed by another military source who revealed that there had been fierce fighting between Boko Haram terrorists and Camerounian forces over the control of the key boundary town of Kirawa.


According to the source, the terrorists who escaped from the Konduga onslaught were chased by the military across the Camerounian border only to encounter another battle in the Central African country.


The source explained that Kirawa is the border town that transverses Nigeria and Cameroun.
“Since Thursday night, there has been fierce fighting between Boko Haram and the Camerounian military in Kirawa,” he said.


Kirawa is considered unique because it is a border town that cuts across the two countries and has boundaries that are blurred, making it very easy for its inhabitants to cross from one country to the other unimpeded.


“This was what happened to our troops who in pursuit of the terrorists suddenly found themselves on the Camerounian side,” the source explained.
Meanwhile, THISDAY has learnt that the recent onslaught by the Nigerian Armed Forces is yielding results, as some members of Boko Haram were said to have surrendered and handed their weapons to the military following the defeat of the sect in Konduga and other parts of the North-east.


A statement on DHQ’s twitter handle attributed their surrender to the heavy defeat the terrorists suffered in the hands of the troops in recent times, especially in Konduga.


The statement claimed that members of the terror sect surrendered with their weapons voluntarily at the weekend to the leadership of the troops in Konduga.
The defence authorities also disclosed that some of the captured terrorists have been providing useful information on the subsequent plans of the group.


DHQ further revealed that more terrorists were killed while trying to recover the dead bodies of their prominent fighters who had died in previous encounters in the area.


According to DHQ, “As the heat on terrorists continues, five terrorists yesterday surrendered with all their weapons to troops @#Konduga pleading for mercy.
“Other captured terrorists have also been giving useful information on the subsequent plans of the group in an apparent offer to cooperate.”


In addition, DHQ said the troops had recovered more weapons during the mop up operations, while some of the sect’s vehicles had been destroyed.
A military source, who spoke on the issue, said the troops who are used to fighting conventional warfare have actually got the terrorists where they want them, adding that the desperate attempts by the terrorists to gain entry to Konduga and march on to Maiduguri had backfired.


“We are wearing them down and our promise is that they will not hold any territory. The fact is that the terrorists themselves know that but they are just trying to prove a point and right now the heat is on them.
“The whole place is too hot and they are on the run... They are in total disarray, some of their key commanders have either been killed or captured,” the source said.

The Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and Space Commercial Services Holdings are partnering on a synthetic aperture radar for us in small satellites, it has been announced at the Africa Aerospace and Defence exhibition.

The CSIR and Space Commercial Services Holdings Aerospace Group (SCSH) entered into an agreement to design and develop a wide-area maritime synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The two organisations said the new offerings will be cost effective, light weight and deliver high value imagery for customers of the small satellite market.

The South African developed small satellite SAR will enable global stakeholders and partners to have strategic independence through full access and control to the data and information products, according to the CSIR and SCSH.

This type of radar is unique in that it provides all-weather, day and night strategic information for maritime surveillance, reconnaissance, resource and disaster management. The processed images enable planning, resource allocation and management for the ocean economy.

Erlank Pienaar, CSIR Manager: Radar And Electronic Warfare Systems, said the target market is the developing world.

Bilateral defence cooperation between SA and Brazil, and Brazil and Angola, highlighted
Back


Defence industrial cooperation between South Africa and Brazil was highlighted at the recent III Brazil Defence Industrial Base Show (III Mostra BID-Brasil, as it is known in Portuguese), held in Brazil’s capital city, Brasília. The Brazilian Ministry of Defence (MD) highlighted, on its website, a presentation made at the show by Armscor GM: research and development Trevor Raman. Armscor is South Africa’s defence acquisition (and research and development) agency.

In his address, entitled ‘Brazil-South Africa: Opportunities for Technology Development Partnerships’, Raman pointed to the success of the joint programme between South Africa and Brazil to develop the A-Darter missile. This is a fifth-generation infrared homing air-to-air missile (originally conceived by South African defence company Denel Dynamics, part of the State-owned Denel Group). He affirmed that the next step was to strengthen the cooperation between the two countries and seek to make products that would be competitive in the global market.

Denel Dynamics is busy with a proof of concept project to improve the accuracy of standard 155 mm artillery rounds, the company has announced.

The project aims to develop a precision fuse, dubbed the AcuFuse, within the same footprint as a MIL-STD-333B Multi-option Fuse for Artillery (MOFA) short intrusion fuse.

This will allow artillery operators to select an accurate solution by simply replacing the standard fuse with the AcuFuse when high-precision firing is required. Due to its accuracy, aimed to be between 10 m and 20 m circular error probability at all ranges, AcuFuse will minimize collateral damage on the battlefield, Denel said. It will also decrease the logistics support required due to the fact that fewer ammunition rounds would be required.

AcuFuse utilises the guidance and control technologies of Denel Dynamics with the inertial sensor technologies of UTC Aerospace Systems, based in Plymouth in the UK.

Denel Dynamics and UTC Aerospace Systems have executed a number of successful risk-reduction firings that will be followed by guided firings with a weapon that could be fielded in 2016.

There is a worldwide requirement for this type of weapon, which will also enhance the Denel Group’s artillery capability. The same technology can also be applied to other artillery products such as 120 mm mortars and 105 mm artillery, Denel said.

South African aerospace companies Denel Aerostructures (DAe) and Denel Aviation, both part of the State-owned Denel Group, have unveiled a major new project at the Africa Aerospace and Defence 2014 show on Thursday – the South African Regional Aircraft (SARA). This is aimed at meeting a gap in the global market, preserving South Africa's aerospace design and development capabilities, while also stimulating the country's young aerospace engineers and technicians.
"We know how much the development costs will be," DAe CEO Ismail Dockrat said at the media conference, at Air Force Base Waterkloof, just south of Pretoria. "We have done a first round of market feasibility studies. The next step is a detailed feasibility study."

The project is currently in its pre-development phase. The companies hope to complete the detailed feasibility study and win wider support from government departments and agencies, the private sector, potential partners, investors and customers within the next 18 months. Then the development phase would be started.

The development phase would probably last five years. The result would be a prototype aircraft by 2020 or 2021.

Three mine-protected ambulances manufactured by Denel Mechem are already in successful service with the UN in Somalia.

The wide-body vehicles based on Mechem’s Casspir armoured personnel carrier were delivered in July and have been deployed in support of UN and African Union Amisom forces in Somalia.

MOKOPA AND INGWE IS NOT JUST AN ORDINARY RPG, IT WILL AMPUTATE THE LEGS OF THAT T-84 TANK LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS. WE WILL THEREAFTER CONFISCATE ALL OF THEM, REPAIR THEM AND PLACE THEM IN OUR WAR MUSEUM AS OUR TROPHIES.

Amor stats of T-84 Oplot against ATGM's have been posted

we can penetrate it -hull armor against ATGM attacks falls well short of our penetration abilities

and there is nothing on earth that can defend against milimeter-band radar

Close range attacks with Ingwe and Milan will give your crew no time to react and defend themselves

Fool

South African Ingwe and Mokopa anti-tank guided missiles are NOT guided by radar ! They are laser guided !

Remember I warned you guys months ago about the weakness of your ATGM Ingwe, now you see what I mean !

Nigeria's T-84 Oplot tank will disable all your missile laser guidance systems and jam every other type of guidance ATGM systems :

"T-84 Oplot features a Varta Optronic Counter-Measures system for deceiving incoming missiles and anti-tank guided weapons. The system integrates laser warning sensors, infra-red jammer and smoke / aerosol screen laying system. The Optronic Counter-Measure system provides:

confusing of the guidance systems of ATGM by putting out laser jamming of the ATGM guidance systems that use laser illumination of targets, semi-automatic laser guided homing projectiles as well as artillery systems equipped with laser range-finders by activating the remote fast-deploying aerosol screens."
