stillchris: Do you understand the meaning of the phrase "on occasion" Artillery has, since the dawn of gunpowder, been deployed primarily in the rear of the front-line. |

agaugust: South Africa has one of the most efficient tax systems in the world More Nigerians live in permanent darkness than there are actual South Africans. We may be 3rd world. But you are (literally) a failed state. 1 Like |

saengine: It's marketing gimmicks and a confused journalist who has no understanding of SANDF and DENEL marketing methods. South African air force has NO SINGLE Seeker Drone in service. Nigeria is the first and only country in Africa to ever use a guided missile armed drone in combat. NAF is far superior to SAAF in that aspect, you guys have NO air to surface missile in service, you NEVER ordered one. Hawk jet cannot operate where enemy interceptor jets exist, the Hawk has NO radar , it will be shot down from distance by air superiority jet. SAAF is a lame duck under the command of an air force chief of staff that has ZERO war experience, we can compare him to Togo Republics chief of air staff . |

agaugust: 1. I guess I need to repost images of the Mokopa's armed on an SANDF Rooivalk at an SANDF display 2. He is a military journalist, he knows what he is saying and what he is saying is clear - SAAF drones. 3. Hawk uses data-link for radar targeting 4. Hawk wont operate alone, it will have Gripen assisting it. Nigerian airforce has no real war exerpeince - bombing rebels is about as challenging as bombing empty fields. Reminder: The Nigerian airforce has never deployed in a contested airspace I can taste your jealousy from here!! 1 Like |

Patchesagain:We are building our military capabilities enough to defeat islamic terrorism in all corners of the African continent.With the election of Buhari,we will soon have vastly upgraded F-16s and Apaches soaring high in our skies,along with other land assets and even warships.Not only that,we may also be able to snag a few squadrons of the french Rafale jets. Moreover,our close ties with Russia and Pakistan would see us toasting our enemies with SU-30 and JF-17,along with mouth watering hauls of badass missiles from the US and Russia. SA is in for more tears as your percieved military strength is violently torn apart by the indomitable NIGERIAN ARMED FORCES. |

agaugust: I think it is fair to say that her net worth is from acting, considering her profession is acting. Nope, your job is now to defend your nigerian actors. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 5:30pm On Apr 23, 2015 |
EVarn: F-16's? Apache? Bwa-ahahahahahahahahahahahahah omg my sides. You realize that America's biggest ally in Africa (egypt) had to get on its knees and suck american co.ck for years to get either of those? You think they will sell to you? You cant afford the Rafael or the Su-30 and the JF-17 is complete trash its comparable to the F-16 Block 40 from the 1980's. The real question is how you are going to aquire that equipment, maintain your current equipment and fund COIN operations with allmost half the budget we have 1 Like |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by EVarn(m): 5:49pm On Apr 23, 2015 |
Patchesagain:That is simply the reality on ground.Nigeria will be the first African country to fly F-16s into battle,its already on the drawing board. Our Apaches will most likely come from Isreal,obviously with the full backing of the US. S-400 ADMs will be procured in battalions,along with T80 MBTs.Hummer APCs will rave through our streets in hundreds. We can more than afford the SU-30 and Rafale,we run on a $7-8 Billion defence budget,that is more than enough to procure 5 squadrons of the SU-30 with enough cash to spare. The JF-17 was designed similar to the J-10,though it isnt battle tested,however,it is a potent 4th generation striker designed for air superiority and missile load.moreover,it is easy to upgrade. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 5:53pm On Apr 23, 2015 |
agaugust: Nope. Read what I said - it may end up on the front lines on occasion. I dont know if you realize this, but war is fluid front lines may shift 50km in a couple of hours, guns can get caught out of position. Just like a Brigade Commanders HQ may end up coming under direct attack, or a feild hospital getting over-run. Standard placement for guns is behind the front lines. Allways has been, allways will be. Why else would they bother giving guns huge ranges? Pic related, Russian artillery deployment - are they on the frontline or behind it? 1 Like

EVarn: Yes, and that drawing board is the delusions in your head. US wont sell you arms now, why would they suddenly sell you their most precious arms? actually... wait... i am not wasting my time responding to this gibberish. Your defence budget is $2 billion. You can barely afford to feild the army you have - let alone buy all this gear. 3 Likes |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 6:02pm On Apr 23, 2015 |
agaugust: Augustus. It is quite clear what is happening You are sad that your artillery has a shorter range than ours. And despite bragging about non-existant 40km range... you have no turned around and said that a 40km range is useless because artillery deploys on the frontline. You dont understand how artillery works - you cant even wrap your head around the use of spotters. I shall give you your last free lesson: - artillery deploys to the rear - spotters, drones, aircraft, satelights , communications intercepts, ground based radar all provide targets along and behind the frontlines - artillery shoots those targets from a distance. OUR artillery can shell YOUR frontline from ranges that prevent YOUR artillery engaging OUR artillery in counter-battery fire. YOUR artillery has to come into range of OUR artillery in order to shell OUR frontline meaning we can engage YOUR artillery in counter-battery fire. 2 Likes |

agaugust: How else does an actor generate income if not through acting? Do you think someone gave her $100 million from the charity of their own heart? You want to talk lies? ok: - Missile armed OPV's - T80 Oplot - Tucano - FH-77 B05 L52 - 40km ranged RH-70's - Su30 - BVRAM range on PLC-9 missiles - Otomat Mk2 - "hundreds" of T72s in Nigeria Your history of lies is well known and well documented 5 Likes |

Patchesagain: They are on the frontline. A distance where you are able to fire and hit your enemy, and he can fire back and hït you, becomes a frontline in war. Mörön . |

Patchesagain:http://www.indexmundi.com/facts/nigeria/military-expenditure Nigeria splashed $369 Billion on military expenditure in 24 years!. In 2014,our defence budget increased by 100% to over $7 Billion. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 6:15pm On Apr 23, 2015 |
EVarn: I dont know where you get your "$7 billion" from since your "citation" only goes to 2011 and a peak of $3,6 Billion is recorded. And, FYI, your source quotes SIPRI - and most recent info from Sipri is that your budget is just over $2 billion and that it has fallen for a third year in a row. While, again, by your own source South Africa has spent $416 Billion over the same period of time and while you only spent $3,6 billion in 2011 we were spending $3,7... and our military is half the size of yours. Good one there, dingus. 3 Likes |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 6:25pm On Apr 23, 2015 |
agaugust: So now you are back-tracking to re-define what the frontline is? Straight from a google search: A front line is the closest position(s) of an armed force's personnel and equipment - generally in respect of maritime or land forces. Forward Line of Own Troops (FLOT), or Forward Edge of Battle Area (FEBA) are technical terms used by all branches of the U.S. armed services. What you are talking about would colloquially be known as "the front", where-as "the front line" is specifically where your forces are directly facing enemy forces. Mr Researcher - why dont you know what a frontline is? |

EVarn: Shame!!! your $7 billion defence budget was only temporary and was not meant to remain like that forever. It was only to be used to fight terrorism. Nigeria cannot sustain their military with that budget or else they will risk bankruptcy. |
