language1: yes ethiopian army have a good experience to , no one says otherwise , i 'm talking only of the inventory, it is difficult to compare and judge the abstract things such as courage experience ect ... we can compare stats and see inventary and in terms of weapon , the capacity of the Moroccan army are higher , specially in air force capacity that you talk about |

jln115: The Eritrean war for independence was 4 years longer . I don't see Angola winning a war against Ethiopia. 10 years ago Angola wouldn't have been known for power so just because they bought some Sukhoi 30's it doesn't necessarily mean they are good. 1 Like 1 Share |

language1:Let me rephrase...."One of the Longest Wars" yet still by far the most advanced!! Also im not saying they are good because they have 18 Su30s.....BUT im specifically referring to the fact that you claimed they were inexperienced....Also take into account they fought an enemy that was arguably in the top 10 in the world with regards to Military Power at that time......Yeah they lost....but so did Ethiopia against the tiny nation of Eritrea. |

jln115: Sharaaap!!!! You shameless lying white boy!!! Which enemy was in the top 10, Apartheid South-Africa? Says who Angola lost, it was the CIA sponsored Jonas Savimbi who lost and fled. Apartheid South-Africa collapsed. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:27am On May 10, 2016 |
Henry240:Yes You Black Bastard, the SADF was in the top 10 at that time. Secondly is Namibia communist? Is Angola Communist? If your answer is NO on both questions then you know who won!! |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:33am On May 10, 2016 |
Henry240: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......... |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 12:52pm On May 10, 2016 |
jln115: Top 10 where? Where is Aparthied South-Africa? Namibia gained independence. Angola is currently ruled by a communist war lord. |

Henry240:Apartheid ended due to economical sanctions, NOT the Border War....Apartheid ended in 94 not 89!! And? It was always the intention to give SWA their independence once there was no communist threat!! Angola is a democracy....people vote for their President....Or have you forgotten the definition of democracy? |

language1:My friend you can not compare Eritrea with Angola. If Ethiopia face Angola the battlefield would be different. Ethiopia don't even have the capacity to move 500 troops at once to a battle ground by air not to talk of supplies/logistics which means you can only fight your neighbors. Ethiopia is only a treat to her neighbors. 1 Like 1 Share |

Iblawi1: Keep dreaming. Angola can spend $$$, their current armed soldiers are not as experienced as Ethiopia's. If the battlefield was in Ethiopia's terrain, they will lose. |

Henry240: If GFP are correct Why did you argue when South Africa was ranked above Nigeria? |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Iblawi1: 11:24pm On May 10, 2016 |
language1:What experience do the Ethiopians have that makes them special? |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 11:25pm On May 10, 2016 |
language1: You forget that the Angolans fought from the 1960s until the 2000's 40 years of continuous combat experience - in everything from being the insurgents themselves to fighting conventionally. |

Gunmen kill five security personnel in Nigerian Delta, oil companies evacuate staff Gunmen killed two policemen in Nigeria's oil-producing Niger Delta as they slept in a security post on Monday evening and three soldiers were killed in a second attack, police and the army said. The raids took place a day after five police officers were shot dead in the same region. Recent violence has raised concern that militants might resume an insurgency that has been quiet for the past several years. A labour union on Tuesday called for the evacuation of oil workers from the region. The army said it would use "all available means and measures" to crush militants attacking oil facilities, saying: "They will stand to regret the consequences of their actions." The two policemen, who were asleep on guard duty, were killed in Delta's Rivers state, a police spokesman. The soldiers died in an attack in Bayelsa state, the army said. http://www.defenceweb.co.za/ |

language1: Not on the scale and intensity of the Angolans. Remeber - Angolans, since the 1960's have been: - Insurgents - Counter Insurgents - Involved in the biggest and most advanced conventional battles on the continent. Plus, even though the SADF annihilated them every-time they met on the battle-field the Angolans never gave up and allways came back for more- they have plenty of "guts". If they had inflicted just one defeat on us like we inflicted on them (over 20 times) we would have been forced out of the war by public pressure at home. 1 Like |

patches689: I don't think you know Ethiopia's history very well then. The only way this debate can actually be ended is by a war itself and that is the last thing the continent needs. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 10:07pm On May 11, 2016 |
well , given the distance that separates the two countries then for your imaginary war ( that will never happen) , we will not see a ground war large scale ! in the worst case it will be only some air strikes , so no need to counter insurgents experience; ground battle combat experience ect .... so what have ethiopia and angola in air fighters, bomber and air defense system, radars, electronic warfare ,jammer , reflueing ? for this kind of scenario |

OPINION: How can African Union be more
relevant?
Since its inception, African Union member states are
been actively engaged in the building, defense and
growth of the African continent. It is the dream of most
African countries to see a United African continent which
is devoid of the usual squabbling and violent conflict.
Africans all over the continent are beginning to reap the
fruit of a fast growing continent with inter-national
relationship between various countries currently at it's
highest point. African leaders are working together to
spearhead the continent’s transformation and direct its
development.. READ MORE @ www.combatheart.com
