SBS?

Poorly armed.
Combat untested.
Wouldn't even pass SF selection in Zimbabwe

NN SBS has current combat experience in COIN war vs Boko Haram.

Zimbabwe has no such experience, but Zim is still better than South African SF of today who cannot stop poorly armed Rhino Poachers cheesy

I know it does not go well with you but the reality is south Africa is and has been assisting your country ....i know you will also denie that Nigerians will be purchasing vehicles in Nigeria through south African financial institutions....

Prove it. My friends got car loans from First Bank of Nigeria, not of South Africa.

SA has only one bank among a dozen in Nigeria, not counting other hundreds of other financial institutions giving loans to Nigerians.

Same way you dullaards think all 180 million Nigerians enter your 7 only Shoprite malls to buy food....real dullaaards you all are cheesy

Yes, you too wait for SAN to introduce three new frigates and amphibious assault ships.


South Africa before 1994-1999 was way stronger, able to reach hit Lagos with moments notice.

That was the time NNS Aradu was the most powerful warship in Africa.....fool cheesy

No hurry, you built your missile ship fleet first, then you want to build OPV.

We are doing ours the other way round, urgent need of OPV we built, then our missile ships and submarines which we dont need now, will follow, NN is just smart, we both spent our $2 Billion in different ways. Simple

Nope, you dont have the money to do so.

You also dont have the skills to maintain and operate them, like the aradu for example.

Volkswagen Igala Car in the 1970s. Manufactured in Lagos.

VW to Start Assembling Cars in Nigeria with Stallion Group
ThisDay, Thursday 11 December 2014
Volkswagen AG (VW) plans to start assembling cars in Nigeria as early as next year with Stallion Group, according to people
familiar with the matter.
According to Bloomberg, the world’s second-largest automaker approved the project for small-scale final assembly because of
tax rules that encourage local manufacturing, said sources, who asked not to be named before an official announcement.
A spokesman for VW declined to comment. Stallion Group didn’t respond to messages seeking comment.
An assembly in Nigeria would mark Wolfsburg, Germany-based Volkswagen’s second return to Nigeria.
In the 1970s, the company set up a multi-billion naira assembly plant, Volkswagen of Nigeria Limited (VON), in Ojo, Lagos State,
along with the federal government as equity partner.
It later pulled out when new car sales fell and Nigerian consumers turned to cheaper second-hand cars from Europe and the US
in the 1990s, leaving the assembly plant moribund for years until the federal government sold its shares to Stallion Group under
the privatisation programme a few years ago.

Since the plant’s acquisition, Stallion has focused on assembling buses and trucks from the VON facility.
VW’s other African manufacturing facilities comprise a car factory in Uitenhage, outside Port Elizabeth, where it produces the
Polo small car, while the MAN commercial-vehicle unit has production locations in Olifantsfontain, near Johannesburg, and
Pinetown, outside Durban. VW operates 107 factories globally.
Closely held Stallion has inaugurated a vehicle-assembly plant in Lagos and acts as distributor in the country for carmakers
including VW, Nissan Motor Co., Hyundai Motor Co. and Porsche.

T-72 performance in every war it has ever fought in shows us it is trash. No one takes poor quality Nigerian propaganda seriously.

T-72 is absolute trash and ranks amongst the worst tanks ever made, and is most certainly the worst MBT in existance. Simple as that.

Yes, poor nations cannot afford to buy from the rest so they buy from China, because their products are cheap knock-offs of Soviet era equipment.

Gripen is one of the best single-engine multi-role fighters in the world.


America was using 3rd generation Abrams tank with modern composite armour to defeat much older 2nd generation T-72 tanks of Iraq with old steel armour.

Let American Abrams tank fight Algerian T-90 tank of same 3rd generation and see what will happen.

Southies have a problem with logical reasoning

Iraqi army had allot of T-72M's
