zaandrew: A-Darter is missile is NOT yet in service today though developed, and it is a south african missile NOT yet configured to be used by SAAB Gripen which is a Swedish made imported jet . try to be honest and give complete information. half information is a form of mis-information. south african Gripen jets have only one missile each for over 5 years . fact you were hiding for 600 pages of this thread. . |

Msauza: Of all 12 Nigerian F7-Ni only three are loaded with missiles with only one each and the rest are free falling bombs. That is a fact!!! NO ! you posted wrong fact. TRUE FACT IS : nigerian 12 F-7 jets have 20 PL-9 missiles to share and a big back up supply of over 100 Atoll missiles too, plus many air to ground rockets/rocket pods/special bombs all worth about $ 30 million of assorted ammunitions. fact ! .

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 7:01pm On Aug 24, 2013 |

agaugust: Only fools doubt those casulty reports and how do you fake a satlight photo. Now what are those extras. Any case the SANDF is not the source of the info. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 7:08pm On Aug 24, 2013 |
zaandrew: same way your Gripen jets will fly with empty missile pylons/hardpoints, same way your Valour warships will sail with empty missile cells. fact ! south africa itself never hides basic military information, they are always boasting about what they have to show the world. SIPRI will see south african a.zz more than they see nigeria's , your country's military sh..i..t hole is always open to the public on internet...thats why i know too much about south african weapons and their weaknesses @saengine has been boasting here that south african navy test fires anti-ship missiles regularly, so we dont even know if your warships have up to the 4 missiles each by now after 6 years, the number could be less since your people boast that south african navy test fires missiles regularly on all 4 warships. nice waste of money....$1 million per unit missile. fools Gripen jets are short of missiles Valour frigates are short of missiles south african military weakness...live with it, or deal with it. . |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 7:11pm On Aug 24, 2013 |
zaandrew: only IRIS missile works on Gripen jet as at today and you have only one missile for each Gripen. dont write ant A or B or Z data to cover up your open a.zz nigeria has over 100 Atoll air to air missiles for F-7 jet. Fact ! dont let me rubbish you with sources again, like the APR-40 story. sharaaap dude ! . |

agaugust: http://m.engineeringnews.co.za/article/a-darter-could-be-followed-by-further-south-african-brazilian-air-force-missile-projects-2012-11-09 he A-Darter has already been integrated on to the South African Air Force’s Saab Gripen fighters and is also being integrated on to its BAE Systems Hawk fighter-trainers. Integration of the missile on Brazilian Air Force fighters will take place in Brazil, with the support of Denel Dynamics, which is the design authority. |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by zaandrew: 7:50pm On Aug 24, 2013 |
agaugust: SA has very few air threats most of the gripen hard points would carry bombs. Even so the a darter is there. No SANDF is very secrive it has a secrtive account that not even members of parlment has access to. We reveal info to show that we not waisting money. Our defence industry market the goods that of course the sandf use and we may even assest with the markting. We fire a few excocet and umkontho every now and then. And replenish stock. Any case we have skepion ASMs |

agaugust:A-Darter January flight tests successful Date: 7 March 2012 The Denel Dynamics A-Darter 5th generation infra-red guided short range air-to-air missile is a step closer to production following a successful series of undisclosed guided launches in January. The joint R1 billion missile programme between South Africa and Brazil is in its fifth year of development, and only a hand-full of countries in the world are capable of developing missiles in this class. "We successfully executed the air launched guided missile firings from the South African Air Force's SAAB Gripen fighter platform at the local Overberg Test Range," said Deon Olivier, Business Development Manager for Air-to-Air missiles. "These launches were completed against (amongst others) the Denel Dynamics high speed Skua aerial target drone which is designed for high subsonic missile testing and evaluation." The programme has now entered its qualification phase, and is well on its way to completion by next year (2013), with the ultimate goal of being production-ready by the end of that year. The initial fighter aircraft for integration are the Hawk and Gripen for the South African Air Force (SAAF), and the Northrop F-5M for the Brazilian Air Force. It is likely that A-Darter will enter into operational service in both air forces in 2014, Denel Dynamics said in a statement released at the Defence and Security Asia 2012 show in Thailand. The company says the relationship with the Brazilian Air Force and Brazilian industry on the development programme has strengthened the ties between the two countries and may lead to more cooperation opportunities. "There are also significant export opportunities for this product into further markets, particularly with A-Darter's aircraft integration flexibility across platforms," said Olivier. The A-Darter was successfully launched in-flight from a Gripen fighter jet for the first time on 17 June 2010. This led to all subsequent firings taking place with clearance for the full carriage and firing envelopes of the Gripen. It ultimately resulted in a successful clearance programme - commended by SAAB as well as South African certification authorities. |

agaugust:Media statement by the South African National Defence Union on operational contact by South African troops with M23 rebel enemy forces in the DRC. Pretoria SANDU HQ 24 August 2013 SANDU understands that South African Troops deployed in the intervention brigade in the eastern DRC have been engaged on at least two incidents of engagement with enemy rebel forces near Goma over the past 12 hours. Apparently our troops eliminated an enemy machine gun nest hampering the advance of Congolese forces and also returned mortar fire on rebel forces. SANDU wishes our troops in the DRC all the best and we call on all South Africans to support our men and women in uniform facing the inevitable dangers of military conflict irrespective of political opinion. Our soldiers need to know that we back them. We wish for their safe return after successful completion if their tour of duty. |

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by MikeZA: 9:11pm On Aug 24, 2013 |
agaugust:Show me any Nigeria air to air combat kill,any Nigerian MBT(Main battle tank) kill. Any Nigerian counter battery firing. Any Nigerian submarine kill(sinking). Any Nigeria drone in action,selecting targets for howitzers. Any Nigerian successful interception of a jet fighter. Any record of Nigerian howitzers destroying armoured vehicles,tanks,infantry,anti aircraft systems and war planes. If there's non that means Nigeria lacks war experience and doesn't have a unique way of operating like the SANDF(Long distances,less supplies). |

And you also say ur country economy is going grow faster than nigeria's economy in 2013 then tell me why nigeria has the fastest growing economy in africa That's the problem with you lot. It's all about roles. Ghana has the better living standards, which is what matters in the end. And actually, the fastest growing economy right now is Libya at 11.6 per cent. So, I won't be answering your clearly erroneous question. You have some reading to do. |
