patches689:

Are you intentionally misunderstanding me?

I know you have it.

But show me where it says Nigerias has the specifications in the article.

South Africa has 4 of such planes - can we now say they all have those capabilities?

You first denied by saying we don't have it, until @iterator busted your lies by mentioning Nigerian coat of arms boldly displayed on the Beechcraft plane's tail.

South African Beechcraft is the ancient transport version that CANNOT do special mission, your own has NO radar and no data-links tongue tongue tongue

Nigerian Beechcrafts are the sophisticated new versions special mission ISR aircraft for Intelligence-Surveillance-Reconnaissance, our own has radar and data-links.

The radar dome is clearly visible underbelly of the Nigerian aircraft and I even put the labeled diagram of the aircraft there to prove everything.

If you are not satisfied with all that, you can leave this forum/thread in anger, we gain nothing from having you around....we miss @Andrewza.

Debating with @Patches is NEVER worth the waste of precious time, he is just the epitome of fraud, dishonesty, and insincerity combined together in one worthless man of zero value.

No, fool, I never disputed that there is an Aircraft that belongs to Nigeria- i am not blind I can see the coat of Arms.

What I dispute is that you model has all the specifications you list. It may have some, it may have none. Your job is to prove it.

South African Beechcraft is the ancient transport version that CANNOT do special mission, your own has NO radar and no data-links

Prove it.

The radar dome is clearly visible underbelly of the Nigerian aircraft and I even put the labeled diagram of the aircraft there to prove everything.

I can see that. It may indeed have radar. But what of the other capabilities? Please prove they exist - we dont care what the manufacturer says, they are talking about an asset with "all the bells and whistles".

he is just the epitome of fraud, dishonesty, and insincerity

Lol, tell us again about Nigeria's 150 T-55s, Tucanos and missile armed OPV's. Or how you tried to tell as that the 95M OPV's NAVIGATIONAL RADAR is better than a FRIGATES COMBAT SUITE.

Or my personal favorite: "Nigeria is better at COIN than Isreal"

Or, "We have the Otomat Mk2, I dont care that every single available source says we have the MK1, I have just one source that says we have the MK2, so everyone else is wrong!!"

Or how you tried to fool this forum into thinking that 32Bn and the Recces are the same unit and that they were disbanded?

Or what you are doing right at this moment, allow me to illistrate what you have done:

"Nigeria has asset X"
"The manufacturer says that a top of the range model comes with capabilities A, B, C"
"Therefore we have asset X with capabilities A, B, C"
"No, I cannot prove that it actually has these capabilities - but you must believe me!!"


It doesnt work like that, only say things you can prove.

Dude, you are pathologically dishonest

combined together in one worthless man of zero value.

Everytime we lock horns I thrash you.

Should I go through the history of this week alone and point out all the times I have humbled you?

I particularly enjoyed the massive sulk you threw when I obliterated you 4 nights in a row - i think it was the quote from the Chinese navy that said that the Type 056 was not designed for fleet combat operations that broke your heart cheesy

Nope and no ! New uniforms for Nigerian army was not provoked by any SANDF photomania, NA has different reason for changing uniform and may not tell you everything every reason why.

Nigerian army high command reads Beegeagles Blog, and we the approved members of Beegeagle compared Nigerian army uniforms with those of USA/NATO militaries that we train with....not your fvcking South African uniform that will expose your army to the enemy's easy view in a sandy desert like Sahara or Arabia.

SANDF uniform is bad outside your homeland territory, it will expose your position in an all-green swamp or rain forest and in a white sand desert....the whole South African army will get wiped out if you land from sea to white Sand beach....the enemy will see all of you from 3 km away looking like brown skin goats running around in brown uniforms that you think is a camouflage for all types of terrain...

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Thiza: 6:41pm On Jul 31, 2014
@AUGUSTUS SORRY THE CHANGE HAS BEEN NECESSARY DUE TO BOKO BOYS WEARING THE SAME UNIFORM. THE SANDF Tested and introduced between 1991 and 1993, the "Soldier 2000" camouflage design saw its first large scale issue to the SANDF in 1994. The pattern, developed by CSIR-Textile Technology group, features blotches of dark green, grass green & pale green with dark green & pale green spots on an earth brown field and is printed on a wide variety of uniform items as well as field equipment.

Apparently the sale of this fabric and uniforms is tightly controlled in South Africa for military use only.

MUMU READ THE SCIENCE OF DECEPTION AS COMPILED BY DESIGNERS OF THE SANDF UNIFORM........REMEMBER SOUTH AFRICA IS 200 YEARS AHEAD OF THE NIGERIAN ARMY....ANYTHING YOU COME UP WITH HAS BEEN WITH SANDF FOR ATLEAST NOT LESS THAN 10 YEARS.....

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Thiza: 7:01pm On Jul 31, 2014
@AUGUSTUS modern armies (including Nigeria which is a pretender to the list) have been wearing the new combat uniform with high-tech pixelised patterns on it. The patterns replace the large green patches on the old outfit (which your RAG TAG ARMY) has been wearing including BOKO BOYS.... The new material maintains the camouflage effect even when viewed through night vision devices.

It is also designed to be used in war zones that extend beyond the jungle. Current uniforms I REPEAT IN MODERN ARMIES WHICH MUMUS IS TRYING TO EMULATE, The new uniform increases detection time by 30 to 50 percent in the urban environment, making it harder for enemies to find their targets.

It is also made from better quality fabric which helps dissipate sweat and heat away from the body quicker and comes with ergonomic features such as extra padding and pockets.

Typical.

Uniforms aren't just about camouflage,there are way different factors to consider.

And yes,you compared patterns with those you train with.

In professional armies like the SANDF new uniforms are designed,trailed and tested by scientists to meet vast needs or requirements. Look at the SANDF project African warrior or the USA land warrior,the former is still carrying out tests from investigating height,weight etc of soldiers so webbing and the amount of equipment carried by soldiers isn't gonna be light or too heavy for them to a point that it badly influences soldiers' combat performance,dragging it to the poor side.

Beautiful images there mate.

It is such a shame that same don't understand the importance of media to national armed forces and view them as the enemy not allies.

African countries don't have big media outlets or channels like USA,Russia etc or other powerful countries does.

I mean look at American defence shows on channels like discovery,national geog etc. Some military writer would even go as far as saying to penetrate the Abrams MBT one needs a nuclear warhead.

Disastrous military operations like black hawk down and others are switched to reflect to the world a narrative of great heroism. How many shows,ducs were made but the mission to kill Osama?#FreePR.

African armed forces seem paranoid regarding the media. Successful military ops even a bit of biased dosage of news reports rally citizens behind their armies.

If a documentary was made about The battle of Bangui,national pride and appreciation for the Defence force would be unimaginable.
