We dont have to.

Everyone gets issued the same kit at basic.
Nope, SANDF has NEVER fully kitted up to 5 battalions in a war zone.

Your army does not have full kits for 30,000 troops just because you say so. Show a source to prove me wrong if you can.

All your photos show at most a few hundred troops in kits, and SANDF does not fight big wars since 20 years ago gringrin

The SANDF payed for more than half of the R& D for the mokopa, thus it basically purchased, a sh!t load of mokopa's before they even started with production.

Bwahahahaha grin grin

Your own source actually confirms NO MOKOPA MISSILE FOR SANDF !


"On the other hand, SAAF chief Lieutenant General Carlo Gagiano saw only limited short-term opportunity for Mokopa with the land services. Most armies won't use it optimally, he noted. Land-to-land targeting at 5.5km, as with Ingwe, is already a very long range for target acquisition. You cant's see much further in the dust and glare of the battlefield. With Mokopa you go over-the-horison and then your communications and command-and-control has to be very advanced.

Wessels adds the SAAF is interested in the system for Lynx “but want us to succeed somewhere else first”, as it does not have the cash on hand to pay for the integration costs. This is in line with comments made by SAAF chief Lieutenant General Carlo Gagiano on that subject."


The whole 10km long range idea of Mokopa is actually a foolish project idea of Soweto mumus, it cannot work on battlefield, I have always said South African's noise about weapon range like artillery and etc in land battle is foolishness that will fail in battlefield realities, now South African air force chief of staff agrees with Augustine !

Email Diehl Defence in Germany. Tell them that Iris-T IS NOT a self defence missile. Tell them that they are frauds, advertising a capability that DOES NOT exist with 4000 missiles already produced. You, Augustine are calling them frauds.

Then email Denel in Centurion. Tell them A-Darter IS NOT a self defence missile. Tell them that they are frauds, advertising a capability that DOES NOT exist with 300 missiles to be produced. You, Augustine are calling them frauds.
Self defence missile means short range missile, every SRAAM is a self defence missile for defending an aircraft against another aircraft.

The PL-9D is a surface-to-air missile variant also introduced in the 1990s. The PL-9D missile system has been ordered by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) ground forces."
Thanks , but I don't care. PL-9C is the air and ground launch with 35 km range. I don't care about PL-9D, it is NOT on the manufacturers website product list, and army recognition did not include it in the website, it says PL-9C has 35 km range, that is all I care about

Augustus. This is truly getting pathetic.

I admire your efforts to defend your obsolete military, but it is really boring.

Our 14 thales radars have longer range than your RASIT system. Their intergration into LinkZA has allready been posted many times. And they are practically invisible.

Your Rolands and Shilka are not ground observation radars.

Your Rolands and Shilka are easy to detect - both visually and by the signals they send out.

Your Rolands and Shilka do not share information with command posts and each other - they can only see what is happening in their tiny bubble.

Your military has no situational awareness, no ground based ISTAR, no data-sharing.

We have dedicated platforms such as Starstreak and CRAM which do the killing - both of which are intergrated into LinkZA

In terms of mobile air-search radar Nigeria is 1000 years behind the SANDF. In terms of ground based ISTAR 30 years behind the SANDF - and with only 2 units to our 14!!
Patchesagain:
Your rant reminds me of my 8 year old nephew when he doesnt get his way.

Your air search radars are ancient nodes and do not have synergy. They are obsolete and ancient.


Nigeria only has individual assets you do not have an intergrated system that brings together ground and air radar search platforms, targetting systems, air defence systems, artillery systems, aircraft and army formations.

Your military is an obsolete 1980's army.
SIPRI says Nigeria and South Africa are both loaded with 1980s generation 30 year old radars !

Nigeria has no 35km air to air missile. Only in your head it is real. But let's pretend.....

A Darter is a 5th generation missile with self defence capability. PL-9 has NO/ZERO self defence capability. Gripen and Hawk will defend themselves and proceed to turn your F-7 jets into scrap metal. Only one dying will be F-7 pilots. Iris-T and A Darter....self defence capability. By the way...where are your JF-17's? You said you would have them by the time Denel starts producing A Darter for SAAF.


http://www.janes.com/article/50334/denel-gets-a-darter-production-contract

"Denel Dynamics was awarded a five-year production contract on 19 March by Armscor for the A-Darter air-to-air missile.

Developed under Project Kamas, the missile will initially arm the South African Air Force's (SAAF's) Saab Gripen C/D fighters, complementing the small batch of IRIS-T missiles acquired as interim armament from Diehl BGT Defence.

The A-Darter will also be integrated with the SAAF's Hawk Mk 120 jets, giving the advanced trainers a self-defence capability and allowing their use in some airspace patrol roles.
"


Game over. Find a hole to crawl into.
Yes Game over for SAAF, your jets and A-Darter get roasted mid-air by NAF from 35 km BVR range away. The A-Darter fuel and explosive will add to the burning of your Gripen and Hawks in the mid-air oven and furnace.


jln115:
"PL-9C BVR 35 km"
Your quoting the ground based missile.
The PC-9 air to air missile has a range of 22km

"A-Darter 20 km"
Still not confirmed but lets take it as 20km.

For someone who claims he is a defence expert, you ought to know that the range of a missile doesnt mean f@ck if it is easily countered.
The A-Darter is a fifth generation missile and one of the best , if not thee best in its class.

So you might think, what are the advantages of a fifth gen missile?

The latest generation of short-range missiles again defined by advances in seeker technologies, this time electro-optical imaging infrared (IIR) seekers that allow the missiles to "see" images rather than single "points" of infrared radiation (heat). The sensors combined with more powerful digital signal processing provide the following benefits:

greater infrared counter countermeasures (IRCCM) ability, by being able to distinguish aircraft from infrared countermeasures (IRCM) such as flares.
greater sensitivity means greater range and ability to identify smaller low flying targets such as UAVs.
more detailed target image allows targeting of more vulnerable parts of aircraft instead of just homing in on the brightest infrared source (exhaust).
Ground and air launched PL-9C missiles are the same size, same misile, same fuel load, same speed, same shape, same specifications, same name PL-9C......nothing like PL-9D or PL-9E.....nothing like one for air one for land, all are same name PL-9C same product , same fuel, same range, fuel load determines range of an missile. Fact of basic science.

Your 5th generation missile A-Darter will die before launch with your SAAF pilot, both your jet and the Darter missile will be b.lown to pieces by F-7 jet PL-9C missile even before your pilot can fire his short-legged 20 km range freaking A-Darter missile, NAF PL-9C kills from 35 km away and the PL-9C specs have 90% kill-probability.

NAF flies safely outside the freaking 20 km range of your freaking A-Darter missile......bad luck for SAAF !

According to South Africans, weapon range does not matter when it is Nigeria that has the range advantage. Freaking fools, your air force is dead in the air when you face NAF.....you have to learn now that we are your air masters. Go hug electricity transformer, it's an easier way to commit suicide than getting b.lown out of the sky by Nigerian air force BVR missiles !
