In other news, snow is finally here. Me needs a Wakanda wearable blanket

lionel4power:
that's since 2016.

We lost one Orxy last year. Besides that, the numbers haven't changed.

lionel4power:
My question is simply how many airframe can you put in the air as on today, now.

Here's your answer.

Where does Augububu live in the US? Because I'm currently being scammed (via Facebook) by a "Bitcoin trader" from the US.... He writes very much like Augustine.

Also, he has a profile picture of a Caucasian male.

jln115:
All these videos of yours are fake.........Only Nigeria poses those capabilities in Africa(maybe even the world)!!!

This level of professionalism is only available in the Nigerian Air Force. South-African tears

Henry240:
Off-course the Nigerian Air Force has a long way to go. I'm also not bragging, not just platforms, welfare of officers, operational effectiveness, healthcare, housing, schools, training which Air Force in sub-Saharan Africa has better service than the Nigerian Air Force?

One clears throat

Apparently found on the Verulam Mosque a few hours ago. If this ish is not getting serious then some dude is playing a very bad prank using a Nokia.

Covert1:
Well been watching them here shying away from the issue. God forbid islamafascists jihadists decide to make SA their next port of call for terror the size we've seen in north-east Nigeria and the Lake Chad region cos they will quickly overrun the place. SA does not have and have not built the kind of CT/COIN capacity needed to deal with threats of that nature and magnitude. CT/COIN capability and capacity takes months and years to develop.

However SA Muslims though insignificant in numbers have not shown the strain of Jihadi Wahhabism that is the source of all terrorism.

Really Augububu?

Ever heard of PAGAD? Pie bombs in the Cape? Ever heard of Boeremag? What happened to them? counter terrorism happened.

In any given day, there's a terrorist organization working underground to bomb a South African location and it never happens because the counter terrorism works at that level.

For years, we've told you that there's never gonna be an organization that will be as large as Boko Haram or ISIS freely operating inside the country, it's never happening - EVER!

foxtrot101:
Two reasons I assume ISIS;
1. 3 Egyptians linked to the attack and Egypt is currently fighting ISIS in the Sinai peninsula.
2. ISIS West Africa attack worshipers (muslims) at place of worship (mosque) . It might be a doctrine.

Sometime last year, I saw pictures of Egyptians being arrested for some crimes in that small town. It was very weird because I have never heard of Egyptians (or Muslim man besides Pakistanis) being arrested for criminal activities.

My 2-cent says it's the very same Egyptians or the same brotherhood who did this. If the investigators are as smart as me, they should have had everything about the attackers by now.

Henry240:
There is nothing accurate about that Africa ranking. South-Africa is no where above Nigeria. I'm being realistic.

The Ranking from 1 - 4 should be;
Egypt
Algeria
Nigeria
South-Africa.

South Africa | Nigeria

Fighters = 24 | Fighters = 0
Frigates = 4 | Frigates = 0
Submarines = 3 | Submarines = 0

Lets not do this again.

This arguably is the best tactical adaptive maneuver I have ever come across
I mean we can't even ascertain their country... It will be very hard for ISR to pick them up

They would have survived WW2 spotter planes. This is the 21st century, infrared picks you up even in a thick tropical forest.

Below are Afghan man on infrared caught banging a goat

global fire power 2018 new ranking out with many changes.

Guys at GFP often buy low-grade weed and they suffer the after effects years later.

South Africa increased ratings, we didn't buy anything recently. Then there's the case of Ethiopia being omoung the top list, God knows why they're there - their soldiers literary wear flip-flops for operations, no money for boots... As for the DRC being above Tanzania and Uganda, you see what weed does?

kikuyu1:
IS THAT SO? I did hear they were dropping the SCAR L but not the captured 7.62 NATO H version seen here with a Talib . I can only find wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_SCAR#Users
There are at least 19 other users,btw.
As of early 2015, the FN SCAR is in service in over 20 countries.[14]
Btw,when the enemy uses your gear you're doing smth right! This must be an interesting story-you can see the sidemounted surefire and a laser target designator.

I was very interested in the civilian version of the Scar H, however the South African importers make it very expensive.

Henry240:
Nigeria, MRAP

improved variant.

So the ground clearance was changed after you made a 5 page noise about it being fine. It makes you look like a layman now.

MiddleDimension:
i heard it expensive to maintain

Very, that's why most new estates don't come with one.

What's that unit with a patterned beret in Winnie Madikizela's funeral?

patches689:
2018.

Still having facebook.

*laughs*

I'm generously sharing my personal data with Zuckerberg, I'm kind. :p

Frumentum:

We owned the Jamaicans even Hussain Bolt thinks he retired too soon. Hehe

Frumentum:
OFF-TOPIC

Update: Latest medal standings from the Commonwealth Games in Australia. 3 golds in wrestling and Nigeria has moved up.

Watched the 400m men's relay, on the last 50 metres South Africa goes boom, out performs the Jamaicans and gets silver.

The Jamaicans were totally owned in these games, we even snatched the 100m gold from them.

Frumentum:
Wow!

BTW, I can find his name in the records !

So finding patches will be easy.

So you already have his surname? Add Patrick to it. We then throw his full name on Facebook, trim it down to people who live in Saxonworld. Get us a picture of him.

Xbee007:
I really enjoyed this wonderful debate on CGTN, such an awesome balance of argument from mature folks.
Gonna take a break from BBC and their cronies.

Come, BBC was playing The Travel Show, don't pretend like there was a debate at that time

Oh yeah, the guy who was given that magic stick was called Mdzabedze which translates to "Long Story". I'm not even kidding you.

nemesis4u:
My grand father is also a veteran of WW2 in Italy

He has a relic gifted to him by the last surviving member of a old italian family

A rose with the blood of Jesus

He was given the custody even though he was not a Christian , later he had to fight court case when the church tried to claim it, good thing he won

My great grandfather was with a ship that survived a Nazi U-boat in the English Channel. Do you know how they made it? Apparently the ship also contained Swazi recruits who had been given a magic stick by the Swazi king to bail them out when the ish hits the fan. At the encounter, they pointed the stick on the side of the ship and the U-boat fell for it and took that direction, the Brits recorded the story but it's hidden somewhere in the Vatican archives, the world wasn't ready to know that magic stick from Kuvukiland that could sink modern navies.

lionel4power:
this is embarrassing.

New kid, let him post..

MiddleDimension:
pls permit me to carryon this discussion a little bit, everyone.

i really admire the SAns. but what has made you guys come this far especially in aquatics?

A swimming pool in half the houses in suburbia is a good start.

saengine:
You'd be forgiven for thinking this pic was taken somewhere in the Eastern Block.

When you want to assault a position and make it look the Europeans did it

lionel4power:
but why do your Rooivalk travel in pairs??

It's the SAAF doctrine.

See, 2 helicopters assaulting the ground is better than 1. In order to save your own troop lives you need to inflict maximum damage to the enemy before moving in.

Also, the Rooivalk was meant to take care of heavy armour for troops deployed far from the base (like paratroopers and SF) so having 2 in the air simultaneously is better than one because going back to the base to reload would be far and deadly for the troops left behind.

And, in case one is shot down then the remaining one would secure the other by immediately landing on the field and extract the pilots (I read extra seats can be placed on the external frame)
for this.

After robbing a bullion van in South Africa

When forensics come, your fingerprints left on the scene will forever haunt you. In South Africa, you can't do anything without fingerprint clearance then those guys are just screwed for life.

Newly released photos gives insight on the South African made Cheetahs

The newly released pictures shows that there was quite an extensive work done on the original Mirage III airframe.
