sorry to ask please...is your hair dreadlocked ?

why are you asking him? Or are you implying that his brain is Locked?

jln115:

So if you clearly admit it's wrong then why were you using it as a source??

Anyway here is how the list should be:

Egypt
Algeria
South Africa
Morocco
Nigeria
Angola
Ethiopia.........

look at you, placing Angola and South Africa ahead of Ethiopia. A very shameful way to lay claims to capabilities you don't have.

Whats the point of upgrading old legacy tanks?

Recently, Major large high tech companies all over the
world are rolling out upgrades packages for old and
almost obsolete tanks. The need to upgrade tanks
usually arise when the tanks are approaching the end of
their service life. These upgrades typically include
modular add-ons that will extend the service life of the
tanks and thereby squeezing out some use of it.
Such upgrades most times target the users of an already
existing tank design and attempts to fix existing issues
or design flaws discovered in the tanks. With the rate at
which new tank models are springing up all over the
world with the latest technology available, what is the
benefits of upgrading old tanks instead of acquiring new
ones?

How splendid!,now we can conquer the world with these awesome pieces of technology,right?,tut tut tut,now dont be ungrateful,shouldnt we be thankful for being given a slice right out of America's junkyard?!,grovel,I say,grovel and it shall be yours!.
On a brighter note,At least it will significantly enhance our CT/COIN capabilities.A weaponized turbo crop srayer is better than an alpha jet.

because you don't win a war only with the MBT Main battle tank , you need also a second line Tanks and increase the capacity of the second line is also important

RESCUED CHIBOK GIRL HANDED OVER TO BORNO STATE GOVERNOR

The rescued Chibok school girl, Amina Ali, was airlifted by Nigeria Air Force Super Puma aircraft from Damboa to Maiduguri alongside her baby and supposed husband, Mohammed Hayatu.

Prior to that they were examined at Air Force medical facility and were found to be stable and normal blood pressure was observed.

Thereafter, she was released to the Operation LAFIYA DOLE headquarters for further investigation and handing over.

After preliminary investigation, the rescued girl and her baby has been handed over to Borno State Governor, His Excellency, Honourable Kashim Shetima, at Government house, Maiduguri this evening by the Acting General Officer Commanding 7 Division, Brigadier General Victor Ezugwu in a brief ceremony.

It is believed that she will be brought to Abuja tomorrow along with her parents to meet with Mr President.

Meanwhile, the supposed husband is undergoing further investigation at Joint Intelligence Centre. It should be noted that Mohammed Hayatu is well treated in line with Operation LAFIYA DOLE Rules of Engagement regarding insurgents who voluntarily surrender to the military.

Thank you for your kind and usual cooperation.

Not as hopless as only having 7 operational assets in your whole airforce!

Or a fleet where only half the ships are sea-worthy

And most sailors cant swim

or an Army

Where men are given 40 year old ammunition, of which they only get 60 rounds, have to buy their own uniforms and pay for their own medical services.

Nigeria is beyond useless

Atleast, Nigeria still have hope than South Africa that use half of defence budget to buy anti-viral drugs for soldiers. A military with almost half of it troop infected with virus. I wonder who is beyond useless.

Sorry to disappoint but we aren't grounding any fleet: http://www.zoutnet.co.za/articles/news/36540/2016-04-23/saaf-will-not-close-any-units-at-afb-makhado

And 5 Gripen pilots is still better than only 7 operational Aircraft in the entire NAF

Actually its 10 and more in training in Russia....Also bare in mind we have over 50 Hawk Pilots, which only require a quick conversion course to be qualified Gripen Pilots.

If we have 5 gripen pilots that means at least 5 leave the ground.

That is the dumbest sh1t I have ever read.

How much experience did the Luftwaffe have when it took over the skies of europe? How much experience did the Americans have when they kicked the Luftwaffe out of the skies of Europe? How much experience did the Americans have when they ass-fvcked the Iraqi airforce (who had 10 years of combat experience) in GW1?

Hint: Training > Experience

SAAF Capability Demo?? Google it!!

Is battlefield the same thing as demo? Or are you saying terrorist will demonstrate with you pilots? They are inexperience simple.
