Henry240: Surely, you don't know that ATAK is also lightly armoured. It is also proven to be basically a toy. |

Henry240: You are reasoning like child. In fact, Rooivalk is the most armoured and powerful machine you can ever find today. You have never even seen it at close distance but already you are calling it names just because it is from SA. Surely, if Rooivalk was made in America you would have been going crazy about it over the net. You mentioned that it misses its advertised target range. Is that not the same as riffles? We are told that they snipe a target at 300km, but is that always the case? A stupppid man like you will always blame it on the weapon, yet failing to take human error to account. Calculators and computers are told to be accurate, but will they always give correct answers even if they used by stupppid like you? Nope, the person (man) using them has to be accurate first as for them to always respond with maximum results. 2 Likes |

Msauza: Ouch!!! What a one million dollar reply. I still emphasise and reiterate my point that all potential investors in Nigeria must review their decisions of appointing Nigerians in strategic positions of their corporations. I know the likes of FERRARI, PORCHE, LAMBOGINI, MASERATI, and all other expensive brands of sports cars might be eying the possibility of opening their offices in Nigeria same way as they have done in SA, but the question is "Who are they going to put in the driving seat of their companies?" Nigerians!!! Oops that will be a lot riskier seeing how MTN ended in the wrong hands of the law. Nigerians can never run anything without colliding with the law and that is evident on the millions of small businesses that they run in South Africa which are often used as a front for drugs selling business. How many of them were caught selling drugs and still have their businesses intact without their stock being confiscated? How many of our children did they kill with their drugs? I think is high time that South Africa should start to toughen their law and in the event that they arrest these thugs they must also take their wealth and give it to the treasury. 2 Likes |

Msauza: Ouch!!!! They do not see that is a weapon of self-destruction. Nigerian lawmakers all suffer from poor judgement. They are truly sending a message to the world that never put Nigerians in strategic positions in any company. Wonder why SA is today a gateway of FDIs in Africa? That is because they have confidence in us. For many years TOYOTA, NISSAN, COCACOLA, etc know that we have been running their brands safely away from being slammed with heavy fines. That's why when Nigeria contacted Japan for a NISSAN deal they were sent straight to SOUTH AFRICA to ask whether we agree or not. That is because JAPAN has confidence in South Africans. Now you get this stu-pid Buhari who goes around blaming MTN for the death of 10 000 Nigerians as if MTN was carrying guns literally killing people. Nigerian federal government has responsibility for protecting its citizens by employing best security measures and they have failed to deliver in that respect, that's why they are now shifting the blames. We all know how all the North-Eastern Nigeria was reduced to the stone age by having its network cut from the national coverage and the only telecommunication device that could work was a satellite phone or radio. Let these fools stop blaming other people for their own woes which they invited to themselves. If they are cash stripped they could have just nicely asked for financial help from MTN other than concocting lies. MTN which is today paying for thousands of their students who are studying here in South Africa. 1 Like |

croat: Yes, that is possible. The minister only awaits approval, that's why she told the parliament straight to their faces that you leave me with no choice. I will continue sending them to other parts of the world because when I request money to buy necessary assets, you make noise. I think now they have heard, particularly EFF. What is now left is for EFF to be convinced that aircrafts which are already in the museum cannot be recovered as they are already resting on their graves. I am pleased that minister managed to sway them and now they can see that indeed there is a pressing need. Now is the time for Airbus and many companies to start flocking once again in Pretoria. The fat cheque is on the way. With regard to Rooivalk, if Sweden or France can come in with the possible exchange of TOT of their fighters, that will indeed be a killer blow that will help stimulate the economy of SA. 1 Like |

agaugust: I have never made such submission. All I am saying is that even pirates know that from Angola down to the far South, the water is infested with Sharks(submarines) and Crocodiles(Frigates) and that's why when they hijack ships anywhere near Angola, they would always head towards the North. If they head towards at least they are rest assured that they stand 80% chances to succeed and towards the South the success rate is zero. They wouldn't just take the risk of falling prey to sharks and crocodiles, rather would go the route where there are plenty of dolphins in the North. |

NaijaPikinGidi: What an excellent speech by the minister. She is using a strategy to convince the opposition that new assets are needed. The problem is that when SAAF wants to buy new planes, the opposition always opposed it by asserting that it was wasteful expenditure. Now, she is using a clever strategy that "since you do not want government to buy new aircrafts, then we will continue sending our pupil pilots to Russia and Cuba to get their wings". In this case the opposition will have no choice but to go with the flow and allow the government to buy new aircrafts, I mean brand new aircrafts. The aircrafts she is referring to are those that were used by old apartheid air force and now are in the museum because they were actioned to the public by apartheid government. They can never be recovered because they are old and belong to the museum. Soon, opposition will give in and SAAF will announce a new arms deal of procuring new aircrafts. Among them will be maritime, transporters, etc. The mission has just began. Good luck Madam Minister by putting it straight to their faces that you cannot complain about pupil pilots being sent to other countries while you always oppose Air Force from going shopping. They will just have to give the minister a fat cheque to go on shopping and bring us brand new assets and not hand outs. They will just have to allow among others for the new Rooivalks, transporters, Maritime aircrafts, etc. 4 Likes |

agaugust: SAN does not work in Angola but in Cape town. If the ship is hijacked in Angola and the pirates head towards your direction do you mean someone as far as SA should be called to come to rescue when the pirates have headed towards your direction. Pirates do not want to play this side because they know that here is a stop station, you just don't pass. That's why we say that wherever there are sharks nobody would dare to swim. |

They had no choice but to ask Nigeria to stop their people from feasting on Indian nationals. As it comes to us they know their citizens are safe. 1 Like |

Come to your senses just for once and understand that military men have to be strategic when it comes to briefing civilians about military asserts.

Henry240: A stupidd man is the one that thinks missiles cannot miss a target. Human have their own weaknesses even though the missile were created to be perfect by following the laser. Remember, how long can you hold on the laser beam tightly locked to the target the size of a pin? Surely you wouldn't do it longer. American Apache, Hind and every gunship out there have been missing targets like hell. So what do you say? Mokopa is not a problem and will always go to where is directed by the laser and it is evident that somehow the person that was aiming the target with a laser slightly missed. Mokopa yes, can shoot up to 10Km. Whether it misses the target or not, the problem will be squarely blamed on the one who positioned the laser in to the target. If the rifle bullet range is 500m, it does not mean at 500m it will surely hit the target. It means at that distance it can hit the target depending on the accuracy of the shooter. Nigeria surely but slowly becomes a home capital of the greatest foolish people. No wonder you are importing toothpicks and toothbrushes. 1 Like |

Henry240: But that is true. Civilian ships cannot notice anything unless special equipments are used by military to search for it. A dullard in this case is you. You are becoming more and more stupidd each day. When a submarine is down there no one can detect that with ships sailing on the sea. That is correct. Unless you are a witchdoctor you can see submarines down there. The man is not speaking about anti-submarine warfare equipments or else he could have told that submarine could be detected by using ASW equipments but also submarines have own self defence mechanism not to give away its position by using passive sonar. So is 50/50, you can search for submarine and still not find it and you can search and luckily find it. Submarines are stealth and do not give their positions easily. You can search for days with nothing to find. |

Msauza: The bottom line is that weapons might be somehow close to perfection but human error is always a factor. You must know that it is not easy at all to keep a laser beam tightly locked onto a target the size of a pin. Many militaries in the world have been missing targets many a times throughout their history and if you are part of military that will not even scare you at all. Russia recently missed four targets in Syria with their most trusted missiles but we understand because we are in the military. Civilians like Agaugust and Henry won't understand at all. They would expect 100% done job. They will rule out the reality that God never created us to be perfect like machines. Remember, it is us humans who control those machines and it is us who cause them to be ineffective because of our limited sight. I read how he (agaugust) claimed that a missile with a maximum range of 8KM would have to be launched at that range. That is a child mentality and what he claims is virtually impossible. That man recently reasons like a child, a baby for that matter. 2 Likes |

Msauza: What those two fools don't know is that Mokopa is a long range precision guided munition that requires great deal of training to master. It has a 10 km range and most powerful attack helicopters in the world do not use weapons of that calibre. They will have to know that at that distance gunships barely see the target and at times will depend on secondary platforms like ground laser beams and other fighter jets laser beams. That was why SANDF firstly dragged their feet to acquire Mokopa because it would require further costs for training in order to use such a long range ATGM. Those two guys still have a lot to learn about military hardwares. 1 Like |

Denel is 100% owned by the state and if it decides to acquire majority shares of a certain company named AGAUGUST. that will mean the state will control 51% of the company AGAUGUST and private people will own 49% and none of those people can ever claim to have shares in Denel. The will have shares in AGAUGUST company and not denel. You claim to have studied business but you are just mogo. That venture will best be described as PPP, public-private partnership.
