SANDF PREPERS FOR WAR


www.sabreakingnews.co.za/2014/09/26/sandf-prepares-for-war/


[size=14pt] South African army to be under command of Uganda.

As African Union still cannot trust SANDF to fight war alone due to poor war record....

Adds Liberian army to list of SANDF's next leaders .

South Africa accepts offer in desperation to gain a little experience of combat which it does not have.

AU concerned for inexperienced SANDF's safety, adds superior Algeria to the leadership list.

What is the range of your sonar and submarine radar and is it for sea search or air search....or your radar is a toy version for Hollywood?

I ALWAYS EMPHASISE THE POINT THAT NIGERIA'S PURCHASES ARE MERELY CLOSE GAPS. JUST TWO OR FOUR OF THAT AND FEW OF THOSE. NO MAJOR ARMS DEAL.

We have 660 artillery guns, you have 120. We have almost 500 tanks, you have 250, we have 30 + 40 = 70 combat helicopters, you have only 10, we have 300 navy inshore/midshore fast vessels, you have only 20.

So who has been doing major arms deals ? Nigeria or South Africa?

You were playing war games with old outdated NATO warships and fuel tank ships.

They sent Type 23 Frigates which is their main ASW asset

why didn't the British send a Super Lynx helicopter to hunt your submarine with standard dipping sonar?

They obviously sent one

You also didn't know that standard NATO warships of modern generation have anti-torpedo decoys they will use to defend against the best Russian submarines.

Luckily we dont operate Russian submarines

Stop being so butthurt

You should have fired one torpedo and see the NATO response your submarine will get. You think your navy can fight same NATO that sold the submarine to you? They will render your submarine useless with anti-torpedo decoys and sink it with counter attack ASW weapons

Well done.

And the second source uses the first source as a citation

Show us info from a well known and respected source, Janes or whoever.

No one is falling for your thinly veiled lies.

Janes is not free, you pay suscription, so lets us use your credit card.

SIPRI updates only one a year, every April.

The only sources you get now will be general news media.

SIPRI that you are hungry for will be a shock and agony for you in April 2015 because it will be fully over-loaded with long list of new modern weapons purchased by Nigeria, weapons that South Africa is still praying and fasting to buy in 2030 grin

So you post pictures that could be of any T-72's in the world

O wow, such convincing evidence grin


The report was from Ukrainian Tv news and I post the video here for you, the T-72 tank upgrade company manager said the tanks are going to Nigeria Africa. The website that copied the story interpreted it all into English.

Nigeria had T-72 tanks in the hundreds for many years kept secret, so secret that even SIPRI could not know it, now sent to Ukraine for full upgrade with Self Protection against anti-tank missiles.....you asked for our T-72 now we show you live videos....Expect Su-30 Flankers of NAF + JF-17 Thunders....watch this space !

"Lviv T-72 in Nigeria

25.09.2014
The report Ukrainian TV channel "Gromadska Telebachennya" with GP "Lviv armored repair plant" showed up the next recipient of T-72 tanks from Ukraine - Nigeria. In the television report said that the plant is implementing a contract for the supply of tanks in Nigeria.
As you can tell, this is the T-72A or B, equipped with accessories dynamic protection 4S20.
In the courtyard there are four businesses ready to send to Nigeria tank, and representatives of the plant say that "the desire to be the Ministry of Defence, then tomorrow would be sent to Nigeria in the area of ATU."
Until now in the public domain information on the purchase of Nigeria in Ukraine the presence of T-72 tanks were absent.
Tanks T-72, the last repair on SE "Lviv armored repair plant" and intended for delivery to Nigeria.

Read the source again. It clearly says that the Op could extend as far as the Gulf of Guinea


Could extend is NOT Will extend, learn to read and understand.

Gulf of Guinea includes Gabon and other Central African countries.

It shot down one Harrier in the Falklands... at the time the Roland was pretty advanced

That was some 30 years ago

You use the same Roland

We use modern Jets

Clown.

And your helo's are inferior in every way - just waiting to eat Starstreak missiles

Mi-35 Hinds have chaff and flare counter-measures to waste your hand held Starstreak missiles.

Easy, NAF helicopters can fly at 3km altitude and be laughing at your 1km maximum altitude 'modern' Starstreak missiles that is as good as a catapult made of wood from Iroko tree grin

Your modern jets are poorly armed, South Africa has NO SINGLE air to ground missile.

Your laser guided bombs and missiles will have their laser system jammed by our APCs smoke dispensers and T-84 has Optronics laser jammer.

Your snail speed guided bombs will be sh.ot down by ordinary anti-aircraft guns.

No need,as Nigeria has totally nothing to counter.


We have Lynx anti-submarine helicopters in reserve

Also, your submarine is diesel electric, so it must snorkel to get air and recharge it's battery every 48 hours or else it will sink dead, it becomes vulnerable to ATR-42 Surveyor 330km radar detection and it can call in Maritime version Alpha jets for rocket attack...your submarine is TOTALLY defenceless against air attacks

You failed to anserw how you will hit a moving ship from 12km high with unguided weapons.

To hit the RN ships with dumb bombs the Argies flew so close that many bombs failed to arm.


Easy, use of Cluster b.ombs with one single bomb spreading 500 b.omblets covering an entire area of 10 kilometer square directly above the ship and all around it.

There will be no escape for your Frigate from the hands of a NAF maritime Alpha jet Wide Area Cluster Bomber.

Show a source that says they are worse. I don't need your private opinion

90% of the countries in the world DO NOT use dedicated combat helicopters, that proves my own point
