rugged7:
Bidexii,
Did u actually have any formal education or is it Buhari's type of education where u end up with a NEPA certificate ni?
Go and learn how to write and articulate 1 sentence in English.
Or even pidgin. We will manage.
Then come back and ask that question again.

Henry240:

lionel4power:
I just finished doing that..... i keep tabs on our countries online profiles


anything you'll like to add?

The Algerian Navy intends to conduct a live-fire exercise with the Denel Dynamics Umkhonto infrared (IR)-homing surface-to-air missile (SAM) early in 2017 . The missile was ordered in 2012 as part of the combat system of the two Meko A200 frigates built for the Algerian Navy, with each ship fitted with a 32-cell vertical launch system for the Umkhonto. Denel Dynamics expects to complete deliveries of 100 Umkhonto Block 2 missiles by the end of January 2017 .

The Algerian Navy has also acquired the Denel Dynamics 10 km range laser-homing Mokopa missile for the Super Lynx 300-series helicopters that will operate from the frigates. IHS Jane's understands that the Mokopa missiles for the Algerian Navy may be fitted with a blast/fragmentation warhead from Rheinmetall Denel Munition to better suit them to anti-ship use than the standard HEAT warhead. The Mokopa can be guided using direct designation by the helicopter, or remote designation by another platform. Its modular design allows for different warheads and different seekers, for instance Imaging TV or MM Wave.

The Umkhonto Block 2 is a 135 kg, Mach 2 IR-homing SAM with a range of 15 km and a ceiling of 8,000 m. It uses mid-course updates from the ship's radar to optimise its flightpath to where the IR-seeker acquires the target and takes over guidance. The basic Umkhonto system can deal with four targets simultaneously. Apart from the range improvement over the Block 1 missile, the Block 2 also has a further-refined IR seeker with better look-down capability in a cluttered littoral environment, which should also enhance its effectiveness in its secondary anti-surface mode.

Patchesagain:


Photos of the propellers....

Says everything you need to know

africaken254:
which photo are you talking about,i am clueless ?

Patchesagain:


Photos you posted containing the subs operational propellers

Supposed to be a big no no in the submarine world... Having people take photos of the props

If you see pictures of Subs in dry dock they usually have "normal" propellers which are switched out under great secrecy right before the are put back in the water

africaken254:
Jordanian and egyptian special ops

lionel4power:
Who knows when the NN ordered the combatte iiib missile boats and if they are still operational

africaken254:
with today's corporate espionage,i doubt they can keep it a secret for long or may be if you want a much stealther prop you need to pay extra.so the egyptian opted for just a regular prop. don't the egyptian subs have Air-independent propulsion (AIP) ? i hear this tech makes sub's completely stealth

kikuyu1:


If it were up to me this would be standard on the section level in every infantry formation. Truly a wonderful tactical innovation
man portable
explosive 40 mm grenades up to 300 m
simple construction and use with six shots

Whats not to like!!

61mech:
We used these at the section level. Problem is that you need a dedicated (x-tra) rifleman for it. We tried running it with a rifle and it's not pleasant.
When you run with it on your back it feels like Floyd Mayweather is punching you in the kidneys and if you have to dive for cover it comes flying off your back and into the back of your head.

You really need to attach a grenadier to your squad/section for it or have it in a weapons platoon like the USMC. Alternatively you could let the section leader or 2IB run it, but they have a lot on their plate already when you are in contact.
