africaken254: hollywood has had a very good relationship with the US military for a very long time,nigeria film industry can work alongside nigeria armed forces.should come up with a film that will be beneficial to both of them
African militaries are mostly run by dinosaurs, South Africa included. When Neil Blomkamp was shooting District 9 the military refused to give him all the gear he wanted like the Rooikat and Ratel despite the fact that his requests were through a state movie agency.... They still refused him the SAPS uniform for Chappie and they even refused he used he used the acronym SAPS on the fictional robot - it's just a bloody kiddish robot.
You think that was bad? The air space authorities refused the usage of a real US drone for the movie Eye in the Sky movie despite the fact that it was directed by Gavin Hood, a popular South African director.
The new HSV is a replacement for SAS Protea, the navy's white lady. Per wiki:

Tell me, does the SF ever go to the Antarctica? I know it's a demilitarised zone.. But just go there as "researchers" for survival and snow warfare... ?
africaken254: i was about to also talking about that show,its too fake .northeast nigeria looks like the rain forest of congo.considering the propaganda video released of the chibok girl with hijab,this girls are shown still wearing their school clothes(how can that be with boko haram strict dress code,also look at what those so called boko haram terrorists are wearing !?)they coundn't have researched online or consulted a nigerian to atleast look authentic
Henry240: You don't seat at the back of your phone from wherever and make claims about changes if you haven't tested or used operationally or do not have the technical data or any data for that matter. you have no right whatsoever to make claims about changes on a vehicle you don't know.
That is what you South-Africans need to understand first, shall we?
Mmmh Henry240, relax. You're taking this very hard.... We understand you're patriotic, it's perfectly fine BUT just relax a bit.
ssaengine: Ah thanks i didn't know. I wonder why products still fail when all are tested. Unless Nigeria has invented some form of anti gravity, that thing will go for a nice roll up a steep incline. All the weight is at the back, that roof mounted piece seals the deal. But ignore me...wait for the pics.
Now that you mention it... The back looks rather very protruding, I doubt it would climb a suddenly sharp incline.. Too much butt on it.
