Ok, so you are telling me they just steal boats and then sail them to the nearest port with huge crains and unload it all?

The ships and crew are what they want - ransom

This is an indisputable fact
Show us statistical proof of how many pirates have got ransom paid to them among all piracy attacks in the last 5 years worldwide grin grin

Thats what im saying. Not a major design point. The option to go amphibious is on the vehicle, a radical design change wouldnt be needed. If SA was to conduct heavy operations in regions with a lot of still water.....the amphibious option can be resurrected at a sacrifice of armour.
Shut uup ! You were telling lies before, claiming Badger can swim. Thief !

You think it's easy to reconfigure Badger that has extra underfloor armour heavy weight like an MRAP to start swimming competition?

Such engineering needs massive work and re-work and testing for battle field functionality.

Nigeria too can add more armour to Cobra APC and add ATGM missiles, Cobra is modular.

SANDF is getting Badgers that CANNOT swim.....if you ever get them in service by 2020 grin grin

Nothing like 1,000m range kill in all these fraud videos you are posting.

Youtube is made by teenagers if they wish.

The men in your fake video killed nothing, he was firing bullets into the empty air.

You have trapped yourself again, I need to bookmark this your claims....

Now show us record sniper kill with Enfield iron sights on target 1,000 m away grin grin

if the need arises armor can be removed and props fitted.

Note that they left the prow plate on the front of the vehicle (it pushes up a wave that keeps the nose of the vehical from diving under the water in choppy conditions)
Nigeria can fit BRV radar and BVR missiles on F-7 jet if need arises. We can also fit ATGM on Cobra APCs if need arises.

Not only you can adjust weapons in war. Fool grin

because it was during the middle of the fighting

You dont admit to any capabilities you can hide

And most rifles can reach out and touch you at 1km
Most assault rifles effective range is 300m to 600m.

What is the range of SANDF R-4 rifle ? 1,000m ?

Fool...Fraud !

See how Chadian soldiers are effective against BH?

Unlike some who keep claiming "our operations having an effect", while BH keeps capturing more land.

RESCUE NIGERIA MIGHTY CHAD!!!!!
Chad is not facing Boko Haram inside Njdamena, any suicide bombing in Chad? Any Boko T-55 tank or Shilka AAA in Chad?

Chad faces only 0.001 % of Boko Haram. Cameroon say a little more and cried out for help.

The town Chad cleared of Bokos at border area, was done after NAF bombardment destroyed Boko Haram heavy equipment.

Only Nigeria can withstand Boko Haram in West Africa

The year somtjing is built does not make it modern or not modern.
At the beginning of this forum in 2010 to 2012, you Southies said all Nigerian weapons are old and not modern even when they have been upgraded, because SANDF purchased theirs in 2005 to 2010. Now you change story grin

Badger CAN swim. Option for amphibious crossing is on the vehicle. Nothing major to change. Since SANDF has no major requirement for amphibious crossing (no big lakes in SA) it is not a major design point.

Proof the badger is garbage.

We have 5 pre producstion models.

By 2020 we should have enough for 2 battalions.
You too prove the BTR-4 is not very modern as you claim.

SANDF has NO single Badger in service, you have DENEL test lab models.

By 2020 you will have nothing, no money, I just posted that above, cash problem delayed Badger for 18 years grin grin

The project started in 2007

The first production begins later this year - first vehicles roll off the line at the beginning of next year

So it will have taken 9 years to design, upgrade and build the best IFV in Africa. (you arent very good at math are you??)
Badger project started in 1997....actually 18 years ago....

"May 26/13: Investigation? South Africa’s Times Live, “Military deal probe ‘waste of time'”:

“The public protector is believed to be investigating the 16-year delay in the project. Hoefyster was launched in 1997 locally and opened to international tenders in 2003. The vehicles are to arrive from next year, the last in 2023.”

The contract was issued in 2007. Defence Secretary Sam Gulube responds that he’s worried about the budget being insufficient."

15 years between Veitnam and Iraq 1
21 years between Angolan war and now

Wow - such a big difference.

UNITA numbers peaked at 65,000 in 1990 (2 years after we left) and we spread over a vast area. We engaged in the South where UNITA presence was weakest and we did all the conventional fighting, not to mention that FNLA effectively ceased to exist by 1976 and operated on the opposite side of the country. MPLA + Cuba + Russia ammounted to 200 000 men.

We consistently defeated them with only 4000 men - this is confirmed by you.

Only 32 Battalion was composed of foreigners - Recce's were a South African unit.

O, so now you admit combat experience is not everything? Sophisticated weapons and training are what makes a military powerful?? Congratulations on another magnificent contradiction!!

And again, show us a major war America has fought alone in the last 100 years.
America can fight alone, sit down 1,000 km away and use cruise missiles to wipe out an army like SANDF.

Can South Africa do that?

USA goes to war to help where other existing armies were failing like Korea, Vietnam. USA goes to war with UN mandate, reason they don't fight alone. No country ever dares to challenge USA alone.

SANDF fought alone once and lost to Seleka teenagers in 13 hours grin grin

You can hit targets 1km away with an Enfeild SMLE using only iron sights

Its not difficult at all.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ-_ImfenKk
Your video does not prove a 1,000m kill.

Also, the Enfield in the video uses optical telescopic sights NOT the ordinary Iron Sights you claim possible.


Video just shows a man with a rifle, not target seen, we did not even see barrel of gun showing bullet was truly fired.

Teenagers post youtube worldwide and make any claims they like.

You are a fraud as usual. Busted !!!!

You goddamn slowpoke.

THE CREWS AND THE SHIPS ARE WHAT THE PIRATES WANT

Cargoes are irrelevant
You don't know piracy since your navy has ZERO experience.

Pirates are different.

Most steal the crude oil, cars, electronics, cargo, etc and divert to a black market selling terminal/jetty.

Few rob sailors for dollars that is not always guaranteed to be in sailors pockets

Very very few want to risk hostage taking drama that will make them face powerful navy SEALS and SBS

Why are you changing your story? You said it was a world record, which is why I corrected you. I never said that person would not be trained. But 1000m is a shot that even dedicated marksmen in police units can make. It's nothing to write home about. Okay maybe in Nigeria it is.
Show us how many policemen in South Africa have done 1,000m sniper kills.

Do you know that snipers do miss target?

1km cannot be recorded as the best, at least tell me about 2km and above.

There is nothing special about hitting a target at 1000m away.
World record list includes a 1,250 m sniper kill by an American soldier in Iraq.

Staff Sergeant Jim Gilliland.....September 27, 2005....1,250 m.....M24 rifle 7.62x51mm NATO.......United States....2nd Battalion, 69th Armored Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division Sniper Shadow Team....Iraq War – Ramadi.

A 1,000m sniper kill is NOT common on planet earth ! It's not good in your eyes because a Nigerian soldier did it grin grin

No it is not a world record. Go back to school to correct your english. Police sharp shooters can hit a targer at 1000m. Something that many people can do is not a "world record".
