SAAF Gripen jets have a 20 year old generation radar and a poor maneuverability airframe plus a high fuel consumption Volvo grandfather engine

benuejosh:
never knew i had so many birthdayMates on Nairaland, this is actually a big family. to all celebrating this day with me my prayer for you all is that, May God Add More Years To Our Life As He Adds More Life To Our Years.. cheer!!!

MikeCZAR:
Because of funding.

MikeCZAR:
The IRIS-T SRAAM is a serious weapon too.

MikeCZAR:
Denel Dynamics heads the programme, and it is based in South Africa. The Brazilian military contracted Denel to even prepare a facility in Brazil for the manufacture of the missile.

SA supplied them with missile seeker heads and did work on one of their indigenous missile.

Funding will change.

patches689:
Uhh... lets think for a second... because brazil is also buying the Gripen?

patches689:
and that says that brazil ( a country that has never developed a single air to air missile) took the lead where?

patches689:
A citation would be great

a citation for anything

benuejosh:

MikeCZAR:

When funds become available it will be integrated.

MikeCZAR:
It is carrying the Umbani PGM
Integrating the A-Darter on the Hawk LIFTT isn't the priority, but getting it into service it is.

ActivateKruger:
That guy is a slowpoke... I have found it time wasting entertaining whatever he says.

Troop101:
eVarn is still a chico!! Lmao

mzilakazi:
Everything is fabrication to you, perhaps your existence is also by fabrication and not by concrete biological process.

The integration on new gripen NG has already started.

MikeCZAR:
The A-Darter is integrated on the Gripen, and in its final qualifications "in this weeks".

mzilakazi:
Bwahahahaha...... Only 10 000 SANDF soldiers can hold the whole of Nigeria under siege.

MikeCZAR:
In the first picture you're seeing the Hawk LIFT carrying the Umbani PGM. The fins and rocket engine are added to increase speed and range.
Yes, the A-Darter is yet to be integrated on the Hawk.
The SRAAM has a "fin-less" main body.

MikeCZAR:
I heard you were looking for this:
1. Hawk with the Umbani glide bomb.
2. Gripen armed and firing the A-Darter SRAAM.
3. Retired Cheetah with R-Darter is a bonus.

MikeCZAR:
The Argentines stood their ground and fought them, even at the face of nuclear submarines. Though they weren't that highly trained, the story of their T209 is today legendary stuff.
Many navies around the world can defeat the RN in limit warfare. Like the falklands war.

MikeCZAR:
If the Argentinians were better trained and their equipment well maintained.
The T209 submarine would've devastated the R navy.
Remember the R navy had to ask Uncle sam for torpedoes as they almost depleted their stocks.
The R navy isn't powerful like it used to be.

MikeCZAR:
The USA has the best navy. The Indian navy can challenge and even defeat the R navy.

Quality of the Russian military is in numbers. "Quantity has a certain quality".

patches689:
133 dead hostages during the Moscow Hostage Crisis
334 dead hostages during the Belsan School Hostage
Yeah, Spetsnaz sure are impressive
Also, which Spetsnaz?
Its pretty apparent you dont know what you are talking about

MikeCZAR:
Did you know South African special forces faced Russian SF in Angola?

MikeCZAR:
I'll post a picture of the Hawk LIFT with Umbani and multiple ones of the Gripen with A-Darter SRAAM.

mzilakazi:
Evan, the US is the world military power.

MikeCZAR:
what action?

The Al Tariq has never been used in combat.

Though tee UAE's involvement in Iraq aand Libya might mean, they'll likely be used.
