Iblawi1: Big 1,800 to 3,300 Tonnes moderately armed navy ships with 76mm main guns and anti-missile decoys are not brown water vessels, their sizes and range are blue water capability. NNS Thunder, NNS Okpabana, sail from north pole arctic ice zone down to south pole, and voyage far off to the end of the world in Australia, that is blue water capability sailing from one end of the planet to the other. NNS Ambe Landing Ship Tank is back in service, refit completed 2015/2016, that is a blue water vessel that moved Nigerian tanks and artillery to Liberia and Sierra Leone. That is amphibious capability force projection. NN controlling the entire Gulf Of Guinea up to SADC in response to Angola's distress call, is true and tested force projection. Blue water navy and force projection does not mean the ship must carry missiles, the important thing is that It must be armed to meet the level of threat that is to be encounteree on it's mission. That is one thing the South Africans do not know, they think only missiles make blue water or force projection, but no ! There is peace time maritime security blue water missions and force projection, that is what Indian navy signed deal to do with Nigerian navy for long term, India has requested to be allowed to depend on Nigeria's blue ocean capabilities across the Atlantic ocean . 1 Like 1 Share |

patches689: Many....Attack Helicopters like.... Apache Mangusta Havoc Tiger ATAK Hind .....armed with 8 km to 11 km range missiles/ATGM like.... Hellfire missile Ataka 120M missile LAHAT missile, etc will hït targets from 8 km range. " The laser homing attack missile (LAHAT) is a light-weight anti-tank guided missile produced by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI). It can be fired from vehicles, helicopters, vessels and remote installations. The LAHAT is a very compact missile and relies on semi-active laser (SAL) guidance to engage targets using both direct or indirect designation system. LAHAT helicopter launched missile can destroy stationary and moving targets at ranges up to 8km with pin-point accuracy.

patches689: You are always 100 steps behind us Nigerians all the time. Let me educate you again as usual. Hellfire max range is NOT 8km as you say, it is 11 km. "Each Hellfire weighs 45.4kg-49kg including an 8kg-9kg multipurpose warhead. It has 8km (LOAL, high trajectory), 7.1km (LOAL, low / direct trajectory) and 11km (UAS: LOAL, high trajectory) range depending on the trajectory." http://www.army-technology.com/projects/hellfire-ii-missile/ You NEVER knew any ATGM has been hitting targets easily at 8 km range until I educated you. |

jln115: Two missiles were fired in 2011, and [b] another two Mokopa fired during the Rooivalk demonstration on 3 and 4 February 2016. The first firing involved the Rooivalk successfully firing the missile at a target that was laser designated from the ground. The second firing the following day was not quite as smooth – the target was laser designated by a Gripen flying overhead. The Rooivalk launched the missile at a range of 8 km, which followed the laser beam from the Gripen, but narrowly missed the target. The 2011 tests used telemetry missiles, but 2016’s firings were designed to evaluate trajectory and penetration and long range capability in conjunction with an airborne remote designator. [b] The 10 km range Mokopa." http://www.defenceweb.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=42356:feature-denel-pushing-rooivalk-mk-2-export-orders124:military-helicopters You mentally degraded boy with Zulu transplanted brain. Defenceweb report in the bolded part says the 2016 two day demonstration of this February is the one meant for airborne remote designation by Gripen plus Rooivalk combination, and that the second day did not go smoothly as the Mokopa missed target in front of potential customers in a business marketing demo show !

patches689: South Africa TECHNICALLY has no frigates anymore, your navy now calls them VALOUR PATROL CORVETTES. SAN has only enough full complement of crews (sailing and combat) for ONLY ONE SUBMARINE AT ONE TIME, and you have a sub that will be sunk by NAF Alpha jets, Albatross jets, or guided missile armed dones and NN high speed ocean interceptor vessels while it snorkels gasping for oxygen resupply every 96 hours. You have ZERO force projection, that is why Indian navy signed many years long term maritime security operation joint venture for South Atlantic ocean with Nigerian navy, thus ignoring South African navy and it's sleep at home inexperienced navy. These Indian admirals sailed warships past Cape Town to come so far up and show great confidence in Nigerian navy due to our decades of operational track records from 1960-2016 wars, peace keeping, maritime security, including saving Angola in time of trouble inside your own SADC regional backyard. . 1 Like |

Msauza: There is no visible Apache helicopter in your above video. There is no visible missile launch in same video. There is no visible target in the video. There is NO proof that is even an helicopter launching a missile. All we see is a street and smoky explosion on the ground. Could just be a ground to ground mortar or RPG fire by unknown people on the ground. |

jln115: Nope, we are drawing conclusion on MARKETING DEMONSTRATION TO POTENTIAL BUYERS DONE 14 DAYS AGO that ended up in failure of Rooivalk, Gripen, and Mokopa. 3-in-1 triple failure in one day UN officer in Congo, most likely bribed with money by Denel marketers, praised Rooivalk for a job done by Mi-35 Hinds that hovers well and has superior firepower over the twice expensive Rooivalk fat turkey. Mokopa fraudulently advertised as 10 km range, Denel decieved Algeria and exported Mokopa with fake range. Today Mokopa fails and missed target at 8km, sure it will miss target at 6km. So much for the claim of "South African made defence products are same class as those of Europe....we have the biggest defence industry in Africa, we are top 20 arms exporters in the world....blah blah blah...." South Africa is exporting fake products with fraudulent claims of false performance capabilities. I said it before that 10 km range Mokopa will NEVER work, now I am proved right in the eyes of the whole world today !!!!! Like I have repeatedly stated, let SANDF go test all these their shiny painted and over-rated untested weapons in a real war and let us see their performance, let us count how many targets they will miss per day on the battlefield ! . 1 Like

Patchesagain: Everybody writes essays when they want to, I am not the only one. Go look at back pages for the past 6 months. I wrote sensible essays and my longest post was a list of strategic advice to African Union - AMISOM on how to defeat Al Shabbab terrorists this 2016 in Somalia, I did that because this thread is for the good of Africa, and most of the photos posted by various people here in the last 12 months are AMISOM photos. I humbly did good for Africa, I wrote essays to save lives of good people....that is more useful than you Patches posting music videos of American hip hop rapper Busta Rhymes on this military thread, I wonder how many African lives your hip hop music video will save in Somalia since that is the best you can do for our Africa in war time . 5 Likes
