Mike..ZA:Dude, stop repeating same old story like a born stammerer, Islamic insurgents have confidently attacked America, they took over American air space in September 11 and b.lew up world trade center in New York city in broad day light. Al Qaeda attacks US Marines bases confidently in Afghanistan. Algeria is still being attacked, Egypt is now on the list of victims. about 4,000 USA/NATO/Coalition/Afghan army soldiers were confidently k.illed by Islamic insurgents in Afghanistan war in just about 11 years, well Nigerian soldiers killed by Boko in 4 years is not even up to 300 men, so what does those figures tell you in comparison? What is your opinion about American/NATO forces performance in Afghanistan and Iraq ? What is your comment about the great Egyptian army and air force being k.illed at home by insurgents? What large scale heavily armed insurgency is South African military fighting now at home for us to measure your own current SANDF capability, I mean capability as at today with today's soldiers in your army ? If you want to resume this thread with sens.eless posts I will just box you in same tincan with @CraigB . |
Mike..ZA:It's a war zone, so what? Then the story source is a text message from an unidentified person, no journalist has reported it and we have to await government confirmation. War happens in a war zone or where else do you expect it? Even Egypt is under attack now and Egyptian army soldiers are getting killed....so what is the noise about Nigeria? Insurgents sho.t down Egyptian air force helicopter this very year. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/27/world/middleeast/militants-down-egyptian-helicopter-killing-5-soldiers.html?_r=0 Pakistan, Iraq, etc are not doing better against insurgents, so why the attention focus on Nigeria? Selective news reading? Egypt was attacked at home yesterday, the cataract in your right eye will not let you see that one. FOOL ! http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/egypt-bomb-blast-kills-girl-wounds-mother-24346631 Dude abeg, find another song to sing, Nigerian military is doing as good as any other military in this world against insurgency, the Americans and British have been hunting Boko Haram for the past one whole month and found nothing with all their technology. Please shut your mou.th mister buff.oon and find a solution to your South African military that has 95% of its soldiers on zero combat experience, boasting about a stalemated war with Cuba that you failed to win and ended about 20 years ago. Go find a big war for your current SANDF to fight and stop making noise about M23 Rebels that are fighting against about 12 countries from Africa, Europe and Asia all at the same time.

Sbura: Thought I was dreamingYour 'dream' is actually a reality, we have all traveled on an internet time machine 6 months back in time.... AS THE CLOCK TURNED BACKWARDS....WE ARE ALL 6 MONTHS YOUNGER IN AGE, GROWING OLDER IS DELAYED, LIFE SPAN GAINS 6 MONTHS ![]() https://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2011/026/4/2/time_machine_replacement_icon_by_gianluca75-d32pso2.png |
Fighter Pilot: Yes, the black race which continue to kill each other like dogs is considered genius. That's great.Did you read the comment before you jump on your laptop to yarn rubbish? I said Nigerians are the geniuses of the black race worldwide, and it hurts you? Nairaland is an example of Nigerian creativity, nothing else can match it from any other African country from Cape Town to Cairo....reason why you all flock here to open your mouths on our internet forum ![]() |
Welcome back to January 10 !!! I hope the Sirius Black's thread was not the real target. Well, it seems any thread created before January 10 2014 is lost, I think Nairaland has a 6 month back up data storage with it's host, maybe that's why we went 6 months back in time. I lost about 1,500 posts. Nigerians remain the geniuses of the black race worldwide, Nairaland is the greatest internet discussion forum created in Africa, success brings enemies. Accept our sympathy and solidarity Mr.Oluwaseun Osewa, CEO Nairaland. |
Fighter Pilot: Why are we helping Nigeria now to industrialise by investing more in your economy?south african investment in nigerian industry is about 0.01 % of total foreign investment. 99.9% comes from America, Europe, Asia. the few south african companies in nigeria actually came to seek greener pastures in nigeria's much bigger market and oil rich economy. |
Fighter Pilot: You are dreaming!! Nigeria has zero reserve forces. Our reserve force has many bases across the country and they even deploy to UN missions. They carry heavy weapons which are part of their inventory separate from those of SANDFnow i show you a source of numbers.... south african army active 39,445 ........................reserve 12,300 south african air force active 11,245 ...........................reserve 831 south african navy active 7,585 .........................reserve 861 total active = 58,275 total reserve = 13,992 SOURCES : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_African_Army http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_African_Navy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_African_Air_Force show us reliable weblink sources of the 75,000 full time active and 35,000 reserve south african military over-inflated fake numbers you quoted above, we need source, NOT mere false claims it seems to us like instead of human soldiers, it is soldier ants that line up for cube of sugar that make up 50% of SANDF reserve forces ![]() . |
Fighter Pilot: You should have first provided the source for your claim of your so called NYSCLOL. easy job for me chief, you soweto guys dont really know how far nigeria has gone ahead of all of africa, NO OTHER country in the whole world has the large scale NYSC corps like nigeria, i said no other country in this whole world except nigeria . FACT !!! "Having taken......these young graduates multiplied with the number of corps members (put at about 300,000) mobilised and deployed annually in the last six years" now 300,000 annually in the last 6 years gives you 1.8 million NYSC corp members trained and discharged after passing out parade in camp. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/11/nysc-foundation-scam-beyond-impunity/ http://www.nysc.gov.ng/about/service-year-overview.php NYSC corps training has now included Taekwondo, Karate, Judo and Kung Fu basic combat skills just like Israeli reserve forces http://www.dailytimes.com.ng/article/associations-laud-initiative-introduce-martial-arts-nysc-scheme http://www.punchng.com/news/nysc-trains-corpers-in-martial-arts/ .
|
Fighter Pilot: Those are not properly organised reserves chief!!! I told you to go and learn. They do not have units and as such you cannot reduce them as reserves simply because they received military training. You have zero reserves. Fact!!there are different levels of training for reserve force according to each country's policy, and therefore different levels of combat readiness of the reserves. some are 100% combat ready like in Israel, some are 25% as in Nigeria. South Africa i dont know what percentage readiness they have until i see details. it is easy to provide the remaining part of training for nigerian NYSC with AK-47 rifles. they already have army camp regimental training. 3 million nigerian NYSC members with AK-47 rifles will make even Egypt to think twice. Fighter Pilot: South Africa has properly organised reserves who are working full time with their units.the heavy weapons you have in south africa are not even enough to share round for your full time active soldiers. your 50,000 man army having only 120 artillery guns is a big joke anywhere in the world. there are NO heavy weapons for south african reserves to carry, they will only carry rifles. its very hard to fool me bros ! Lol ! meanwhile, show us source to prove numbers of south africa military combatant reserves that you claim is 30,000....show us proof. . |
Thiza: Increased levels of fighting in South Sudan have apparently led to the SA Army being asked to send a mounted infantry battalion to the continent’s newest state in an effort to restore order.why is it that south africa never wants to help the poor and weak africa countries without getting a financial reward like mineral mining contracts in return ? why ? when the rest of africa was helping you guys escape the chains of apartheid did you promise us anything as reward ? a brother is a brother ! .
|
Fighter Pilot: Those are not active military personnel. If I include those in SA, the numbers would even reach above a million.one milion ants or human beings ? show us proof of ![]() SOUTH AFRICAN ONE MILLION MAN ARMY LED BY @Fighter Pilot ![]()
|
Fighter Pilot: The only advanced reserve forces in Africa are those from South Africa, comprising of professional doctors, nurses, technicians, engineers, pilots, scientists, combat soldiers, etc.If you want to count that, Nigeria has the largest number in Africa for such class of trained reserves. every 3 years Nigeria trains new batches totaling about one million NYSC corp members under Nigerian Army special camps. we can mobilize 3 million of them to join our army any time any day. they already have all the army drills, we add firearm drills, they are all university graduates.
|
rka1: He was probably including Civil Defence corps members and other para-military organisations, which will take the total now to that amount or even more.Yes, NCDC as nigerian gendarme version like Cameroon has. I posted here before photos of Nigerian civil defence with military training under Nigerian army and fighting boko haram at the local level. Then add Nigerian navy and air force to the number. .
|
Fighter Pilot: Chief, the only person inflating numbers here is you. Egypt has 460 000 active personnel including their guards plus 800 000 reserves. Unlike in SA, people who have completed their military basics in Egypt automatically become part of reserve force when they resign."The Egyptian Army is the largest service branch within the Egyptian Armed Forces, and is the largest army in both the Middle East and Africa. It is estimated to number around personnel 468,500, in addition 1,000,000 reservists for a total of 1,468,500 strong." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_Air_Force i counted Egypt's active and reserve army, now add 70,000 Egyptian air force and navy personnel.... it is over 1.5 million soldiers. show us your own source dude ![]() . |
Fighter Pilot: Those are not false figures mister.SANDF army, navy, air force combined total active is 74,000. i dont see any reliable source for 30,000 reserves. nigeria has combined total active army, navy, air force about 185,000. SA is heavily out-numbered anytime anyday. |
Fighter Pilot: PL-2 is a scrap yard. Bwahahaha!! The only one I fear is PL-9.we have 20 PL-9C to delete your 6 Gripen jets, our 150 AA-2 is a bonus/extra. show me a source that calls AA-2/PL-2 scrap. AK-47 rifle is scrap, right ? Seleka used it to spoil your army's historical combat records for ever ![]() You read what that american pilot said in my post on page 939 ? in visual range combat, no body's weapon is scrap, everybody dies easily. |
Fighter Pilot: Nigerian Airforce has only 20 PL-9 AAMs on their inventory.South Africa has only 25 IRIS-T missiles. Nigeria has 20 PL-9C missiles, and another 150 AA-2 Atoll also called PL-2 air to air missiles....the information is from the same SIPRI source you quoted, read it to the bottom line ![]() okay let me help you with another source... https://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/missile/row/aa-2.htm nigeria has more than enough missiles to shoot down the whole south african air force many times over....and 300 Roland anti-aircraft missiles are eager to fly from ground to air also...we will roast your declining air force ![]() . . |
Fighter Pilot: SA has a total of over 74000 active personnel + over 30000 reserves.even with your inflated false figures of about 100,000 the Egyptian 1.5 million man army will sourround and eat up the whole south african military the way colony of ants cover a single cube of sugar ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qu22qgGsNBo |
Fighter Pilot: 1. South AfricaLol, South Africa will use its 50,000 soldiers to defeat Egypt's 1.5 million soldiers ? Lol Even your sangboma herbalist will not be able to help you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoNha1hUQ8w |
Mike..ZA:south africa has total air superiority over zimbabwe, NOT nigeria. now let me not reply you, let a fully qualified american air force jet fighter pilot reply you below : "Upon entering into an WVR (within visual range) combat envelope the MiG-21 Bisons armed with HMS and deadly NBVR/WVR missiles had the capability of destroying even 5th generation fighters like Stealth F-22 Raptor as assessed by high-profile Fighter Analyst Ben Lambeth of RAND Corporation. According to Lambeth "in visual combat everybody dies at the same rate." " http://www.armchairgeneral.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2428939 profile of commentator above, Ben Lambeth : BIOGRAPHY Benjamin S. Lambeth is a Senior Research Associate at the RAND Corporation.

Mike..ZA:first correction, nigerian F-7 jet Italian Grifo-7 radar range is 42 km, not your imaginary 15 km. all nigerian 12 F-7 jets have qualified and competent pilots, and all our 12 jets are in perfect flying condition. south africa can only fly 6 Gripen jets at once. nigeria out-numbers you in air superiority jets by ratio 2:1. nigeria has double the air power of south africa in Gripen Vs F-7. nigerian PL-9C missile has technical specification of 90% chance of bringing down the enemy when fired. so, it does not matter south africa has A-DARTER missile, and it is NOT yet in service, your A-DARTER is being delayed every year, maybe by 2015 it will hopefully enter service. what makes you think by that time nigeria would not have bought PL-12 missile ? nobody has monopoly of getting new weapons this new year. south africa has total 19 jets flying with qualified pilots, 6 Gripen, 13 Hawks. nigeria has total 53 jets flying with qualified pilots, 12 F-7, 12 MBB-339, 12 Alpha, 14, 17 L-39. try find solution to the fact that nigeria heavily out-numbers south africa in all mixed types jet fighters by a wide gap ratio 4:1. .

Fighter Pilot: @Agaugaust you will get hurt my friend, BEWARE of b0oby traps. SAAF has the so called SAAF Reserves which has a pool of pilots who are highly skilled and are even more than the sum of Griffins and Hawks added together.the south african pilots in current daily full time service are not capable to fly your jets, now you say you have reserve pilots ? those reserve pilots that spend all their time under bed sheet with their wives at home and have never flown any jet fighter for 10 years ? your reserve pilots will crash during take off, the Gripen jet wont even get airborne in their hands ![]() . |
owobiyi Oriyomi: I had 6 to 5years ago that Nigeria is the most strongest Arm forces in Africa. And one among in the world, why now SA,Egypt are befor us in Africa? Is it we ar not stonge as we are befor again or what?the comment you posted by @frosbel is the personal opinion of the man frosbel, on page one when this debate began. however from pages 1 to 939 we have had many people prove that frosbel was wrong on page one. Egypt has the strongest military in Africa, followed by Nigeria. We have proved the new and correct list to be : .

" Some South African politicians are now calling for the Gripens to be sold, as there is not likely to be sufficient money to operate them and retain qualified pilots." " It's believed that only six of those twenty fighter pilots were competent to handle these aircraft in combat. Most competent pilots have left the air force because of the lack of flying hours."

drag_on: Lets not forget that the article is from 2010, as at 2013, the same website states they have 6 pilotsYOU FINISHED THEM !!!! . |

. Ah ! na waah o ! South African air force is getting a real bashing on nairaland this new year, no be happy new year for dem at all o ! So, South African air force has more jet fighters than pilots to fly them, and they want to be the strongest military in Africa with this shameful shortage of manpower ? For where ? Rara o, ko le possible ! So anyone able to figure out how many Gripen pilots and Hawk pilots they have (Not navigators) I guess maximum 8 Gripen pilots and 13 Hawk pilots. Any one with any other figures ? just trying to get the 6 or 8 or 10 pilot thing clear. Thanks. South Africa To Remain Permanently Dependent On Sweden's SAAB For Routine Maintenance Of Gripen Jets... This huge cost may be a reason why only 12 of the 26 Gripens can be in service at one time, the rest are frozen in a cold long term storage until judgement day maybe. http://www.defenceweb.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=33123 South African Gripen jets are now a white elephant project half grounded ![]() By the way, does DENEL not manufacture pilots ? ![]() This is the end of all the boasting about a 4th generation jet fighter that cannot be fully available for combat.

You have only registered today on the 07/01/2014 and only spent 30 minutes online yet you claim to have been following the topic. __________How dare you _________@Fighter Pilot, you are a fool indeed. Why do you make a false accusation against me and insult me thereafter ? You are a hypocrite and fool, you dont know how nairaland threads are configured. anybody can visit any thread/topic on nairaland as a GUEST without signing up for many years, he will read all posts unnoticed and unseen by anybody, but he cannot post his own comment until he registers. how will you know this anayway, you dont have any forum near the level of nairaland in all south africa. this thread is a symbol of the the superior creativity of the nigerian brain over a south african brain. a second class south african brain insulting a nigerian.... __________How dare you _________ |
