Henry, if you're going to extract photos and stories from Dean's and Darren's feeds, please do the honourable thing and credit them.
They don't charge for their content but they don't - and neither does anybody - look kindly upon piracy.

On South African defence fora we call this sort of thing stealing.
Do the needful lest I brand you the other "t" word as well.

I won't do that. No offence intended.

When South-African sources pick content from Nigerian defence topics, i don't see them crediting their source(s).

Chairman this your attack on me is becoming much, it doesn't matter if the guy is Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa, a scammer is a scammer, he re badge cars for God sake, I posted with good faith, stop making as if I did a personal attack.

And why asking what I have done for this country, you don't know me and what I have done, but what I know is I don't re badge other peoples product

Wouldn't call it a scam.
I think it's known already known they're rebadged. Done all over the world. He's got licensing agreements with the OEM. I'd always wish for a Japanese rebadge though as they have more motoring pedigree. Probably costs more.

I actually agree with Henry. Both photos came from a official news site. Do you credit every photo you get from say SABC or CNN or the SANDF them self.

Not like he removed watermarks

I think our fellow contributor on this thread "Greenandgold" is owed a few ZAR (only tradable African currency still worth something against USD$ ) for his/her suggestions on an amourmoured vehicle here.

Same thing against the Milkor 4x4, privately this time?

PICS: Greenandgold's improvements on the ARA.

I still owe you an elongated version of that vehicle which can't be mentioned ... I take payments in ice-cream, Nelspruit is blistering hot right now

AAD2018 is upon us people and so is the excitement of new product launchs, military demos and more.

Let's seat back and relax

Looks pretty comfy.
Does anyone have pics of the Badger turret interior ?
I'm curious as to the layout of the gun and ammo feed system. The Ratel turret had all the ammo "below decks" in bins while the LCT turret has the feed inside. Some people have criticized the small 1st. line ammo capacity, but I think its a huge advantage to be able to top-up on the fly from your hull ammo supply. With the Ratel you had to stop and reload sections of belt, link then together and then it took forever to load into the gun through the dual feed system.

It also looks like a much bigger gun than the 20mm. The big advantage of the 30mm cam gun is that it's so much more reliable due to the externally driven linkless feed system. Doing away with de-linking and gas operation would solve 99% of the issues. The US bushmaster and Denels 30mm actually has a little round colour coded dial in the back telling you what stage of the gun operation you are in. A full rotation means a full firing cycle has occurred. If you have a malfunction , the dial will stop at that firing stage giving you a clue as to wear the problem lies. Quite clever.

Dealing with gun breakdowns with the old 20 was a nightmare in the cramped turret, because the problem was usually caused or fixed from the bottom feed selector. The damn links would also go everywhere on the floor. It wasn't unusual for 1 or 2 guns to go down in a platoon during an attack. Most gunners would tell you that the towing is the Ratel towbar's secondary function!

not the cramped interior of a Ratel no?

yeah that's the problem....... Very beautiful to look at, but doubt it has the off road capabilities to take on the southern African bush.

Nothing more than a show pony!!
