We are only just discovering the Fennec Helicopters in NAF service. As for the cessna, I discovered that only two days ago in an ait report.

why are sub-african countries not investing on buying and manufacturing ballistic missiles,i believe we are the only continent who lack this capability

When African countries still do not have proper Fighter and Helicopter fleets. We should first built our Fighter, Helicopter and Air-Defence architecture.

After this, then we can move on to ballistic missile capabilities.

Saudi air chief killed in Yemeni rebel Scud attack on Khamis Mushayt air base The Saudi Air Force Commander Lt. Gen. Muhammad bin Ahmed Al-Shaalan was killed in a Scud missile cross-border attack by Yemeni Houthi rebels on the big King Khalid Air Base at Khamis Mushayt in the southwestern Asir region of Saudi Arabia, DEBKAfile reports. The attack took place on June 6, but his death was concealed under a blanket of secrecy until Wednesday, June 10.
The largest Saudi air base, it is from there that the kingdom has for last two and a half months waged its air campaign to end the Yemeni insurgency. Saudi and coalition air strikes, directed against the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels, their allies from the Yemeni army and from local tribes, have killed an estimated 2,000 people, some of them civilians, including women and children.

1. We don't need them. Firstly look the equipment quantity in battles fought on the continent since WW2.

2. Heaviest battles are brigade sized ones. Beyond that. Deployment of division sized infantry forces for conventional battles is mostly in rebel standards. Where equipment quantity doesn't correlates to troop numbers or should I say there's no hand and glove relationship.

A. A well equipped and trained standardised brigade can send such formations running.


3. I think the Scud story should be taken with a pinch of salt. Scud missiles are notorious for being in inaccurate.

4. The Iskander tactical ballastic missile is what would keep me awake if I heard "The Russian are coming".
