South African army plagued by setbacks in Cabo Delgado

The SADC intervention force in northern Mozambique, to which South Africa is the main contributor, has suffered a series of setbacks, including logistical snafus, lack of intelligence gathering, and poor coordination with Rwandan and Mozambican troops.

As this stand, Mozambique needs the KDF!!

The South African Army wasn't even deployed in Moz untill like last month... So yeah.... Your article is rubbish

Try agian

Covert1:
And the Nigerian Navy showed up off Cape Town just like I said years back they would if they wanted to and have been doing so now for many years since, something the Southies and some Nigerians said was impossible. The Nigerians have even showed up in far away Australia a first and only in all of Africa.

who claimed a ship can't sail??

QuietMynd:
U should be more worried about ur military getting embarrassed due to their continuous failure in their Mozambique adventure.
Same military u guys were bragging its gonna deal with Russia if South africa were to be Ukraine.
Since that day, I start taking u guys bragging as a comic relief.

we have been beating those Moz terrorist Black and blue mate don't know what failures you talking about! Secondly who said anything about Russia??

QuietMynd:
To think one muppet said the little success sandf record in the early stage of operation in Mozambique beat that of the Nigerian military 10years war on terror hands down.
Delusion should be added as prefix to most South Africans name.
It runs in their blood, I ve seen it all on social media and there is nothing anyone can say to convince me.

But you have yet to defeat BH.....

Exnavyboy62:
I mean a Navy with 1 operational frigate out of 4 with an obsolete 76mm compact gun, 13 out of 16 surface to air missiles and yet to be upgraded anti-ship missiles that can be wasted by chaff/decoys. That frigate will be showed SHEGE!!! by the superior main Naval gun of the P18N vessels
A Navy with 0 operational out of 3 submarines that was purchased to chase away sharks according to a S.A Navy commander

Mrs Modise WWWHHHYYY!!!

So you telling me the 76mm oto melara super rapid, which is also used on the FREMM frigate is obsolete.... While your P18 opvs have the less advanced ak176 76mm?? Are you good bru

So the umkhonto missiles chosen for the new Algerian meko200 as well as the Finish Hamina-class are obsolete?? Gosh then Finish people and Algerians must be stupid for buying obsolete missiles ..... And just FYI both Algeria and Finland bought the block 2...which is the same one fitted on the valour class frigate

Who says they none are operational? Also it wasn't a SA Navy commander but a spokesperson and he was using sharks as a metaphor... He said people don't swim where there are sharks.... Understand the metaphor my bru then you'll understand what he was saying

76mm super rapid firing:

Exnavyboy62:
15 helicopters, 4 rotorcrafts UAVs(AVIC AR-500B) and several VTOL drones to it's dispense.

Meanwhile........................ a particular Almighty Navy that is meant to scare the so called "Skelewu Navy" still depends on their ailing air force to carry out naval air operations in the 21st century. Somebody laugh with me

you mean a Navy with 4 Frigates and 3 subs and actual anti ship and anti air capability vs your navy with 0 of that?

New MMIPV in exercise points to possible non-availability of other platforms

Defenceweb - 16th November 2022

" possible" "non-availability"...... Could you please post where the article says non-operational.... I'll wait

kabe1:
He also sees employment of the new MMIPV as indicating “no other ships are or were available” for both exercises adding it “could” be why Brazil was not part of Ibsamar.


What a shame, same old story of MZansi incompetence.

do you read "could be" and "possibly" do you understand the meaning of those words?

Same article kabe1 keeps regurgitating

kabe1:
Then this bombshell News



New MMIPV in exercise points to possible non-availability of other platforms

Defenceweb - 16th November 2022




Well I guess, 1 operational ship can make a Navy in South-Africa

MZansi!!

Reading not kabe1s forefront

Exnavyboy62:
1 out of 4 Frigates operational
1x MMIPV available
2x 1980s Warrior strike craft awaiting retirement
3x T-Class patrol vessel operational
21x Namacurra harbour patrol boats
2x under refit River class minehunter vessels

And you said the S.A Navy will make the Nigerian Navy hide in the Niger Delta

With the current state of the SANDF, if me and my boys decide to start our special military operation against you guys, the world might see it as child abuse

what are you going to sink 1 frigate with? You have 0 anti ship missiles

maybe learn to read

kabe1:
The South African Navy has just 1 operational ship.

The SANDF is a mess from top to bottom. inefficiency, inoperable, Sloppy, complete and utter disorganization.

That's a fact, deal with it.


...by the way it's torpedo, not topidos.

Don't be butt-hurt, with your 1 ship!!

Mgbeke you are still here without shame spewing thrash and propaganda when your fellow Southies have since fled in defeat to the superiority of the Nigerians on all levels military and economic. This is not 2006, wake up, Africa has since moved on. There's no Boko haram in urban centers of Nigeria and not even with freedom of action in the Lake Chad Basin where they've been pulverized. Apparently you got out from prison so be appraised of current realities.

Nigeria is Africa's superpower with its largest economy, largest democracy and preeminent military power and the largest black nation on earth. Nigeria has to disintegrate for the Southies to see the sun and that won't happen

A military with only 3 modern mig21s, no subs, no Frigates, no anti ship capabilities, no Gbads, can't defeat a rag tag rebel group in its own country.

Also an economy that is 3 times smaller per capita, a country that is considered the 4 or 5th most failed state in the world, can barely keep up with SAs growth rate despite having 4 times the population.... Should I go on?

Covert1:
Slo.wpo.ke warned you so many times Nigeria does not have a Defence Force as the first line of defence against external aggression as you tend to insinuate which is deliberate condescension. What we have is The Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria which is made up of the Army, Navy, Air Force, the police, paramilitary & all intelligence agencies.

However Nigeria does have a para-military force structure of Civil Defence Corps [NSCDC] akin or a bridge to a National Guard with combat and SF elements better than some of what obtains as a relic of your SADF now the SANDF [Defence Force]. The Nigerian Armed Forces are only called in for the heavy lifting when all else fail with the use of crack para-military forces as we see with BHT terrorists.

No force dominates in Nigeria except Nigeria's military and security agencies that controls all levers and monopoly of violence. Stop spewing nonsense. We all know it's the SANDF that is a shadow of its former self and it's still failing.

In Nigeria when we elect a President he becomes the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria vested with constitutional authority.

and yet BH over runs your country.... Untill then know your role and shut your mouth

Exnavyboy62:
Ohh you mean her serving as an anti apartheid guerilla under the Umkhonto We Sizwe is her military experience??
Shey you dey whine me ni(Are you kidding me)

And by the way, those miscreants have been reduced to petty bandits that only carry out hit and run operations, they will be history before the end of the present administration

she received military training in Angola.... Far from your ret@rded post that claimed she has 0 military experience

Exnavyboy62:
I just heard the South African Navy chief side of the story. True, true wetin Mr Ramaphosa do no good at all ooo.
How can the SANDF ask Mr Ramaphosa for "Minister of Defence" but he gave them "Minister of Refreshment". Now the Ms Modise has already used 75% of the defence budget to fly to Russia to cheers and drink wine and also to buy make up kits and clothes.
Now the meagre leftover funds for the SANDF can only cover for; 1MMIPV per year for the S.A Navy, maintenance of 5 Atlas oryx Helicopter per year for the Air Force and upgrades of 10 Ratel IFV per year for the Army.

Moral lesson : Don't put a woman as your Defence Minister next time especially when she has no military experience.

Where are my other Comrades of Vawulence, over to you

another ignorant and useless muppet that has no idea what his talking about.

FYI Thandi Modise is a military veteran with actual combat experience and training.... Next time keep your mouth shut before spewing your ret@rdedness on this thread

FYI the SANDF might have its problems but at least it hasn't been dominated and over run by rag tag rebel groups in its own country like the Nigerian defence force.

kabe1:
You have only 1 operational vessel in the South African Navy.

That's pathetic


New MMIPV in exercise points to possible non-availability of other platforms

can you read?

kabe1:
Semantics.

You're as delusional as they come. The SANDF is drowning in a sea of incompetence, inoperability and dysfunctionality.

The South African Navy has been reduced to a Navy of 1 operational ship.

It's sad, and I'm loving it!!!

in other words you have 0 proof

I just showed you more than 1 operational vessel............looks like the SANDF still lives rent free in your head

kabe1:
I'm talking about yesterday's report, and you are showing pictures posted last month.

You're delusional clown.

Where does it say only one vessel is operational?.......learn the difference between unavailable and none operational

kabe1:
You are delusional and it's fantastic to see.

One operational vessel in the South African Navy is sad and hilarious.

Taken last month

kabe1:
SAS Sekhukhune is the only operational vessel in service with the South African Navy.

Heitman maintains all the services “have been reduced to ‘third world’ forces typical of the 60s and 70s, with unserviceable equipment, a large bureaucracy and a focus on everything but operational readiness”

maybe read the article in its fullest since we are being compared to first world countries lije Germany ... Not brown water navies with 0 Frigates and subs

MAN1960:
You are so childish, you live in South Africa or Nigeria? how will you know those that migrated to Nigeria

[ I know a 1000 who came to South Africa.]


You are proudly foolish

its a pretty well known fact that South Africa has by far the most African migrants on the continent.... Don't be ignorant, facts don't care about your feelings

Odunayaw:
I had to pick the most outrageous one especially since it concerns Nigeria

well I would say both are equally outrageous

Odunayaw:
Where did you get this from

the bra said the f22 will be retired soon and you are worried about the bolded?

Faithful007:
I called BS on that crap you wrote blaming it on illegal immigrants. Farm attacks are a regular thing in SA and there's absolutely nothing of evidence that is being carried out by immigrants. You're the one who needs a little logic. Shit faced clown.

stfu

IGpro1:
why do you disturb yourself with another country's AF?
Rather than post half naked women why not drop one picture of your military here,that relates to the thread topic.
I think you are actually the most jobless and annoying poster here.

You have enough starving and dieing kids in Turkana to worry about.

you actually make a point

Faithful007:
And the crimes are only being committed by the illegal immigrants?

I never knew all SA men are innocent monks who keep the ten commandments judiciously.

My bru these crimes specifically are being committed by illegal immigrants since the border fence borders these farms and its very easy to see where wires are cut and out of which camps livestock is stolen....please use a little logic next time you muppet

Also these photos and the description of the operation was posted by the SANDF... Not me

kabe1:
This Thread is not Skyscrapercity.com!!!!

calm your tits

Farmers and SANDF soldiers patrolling together... These farmers have farms bordering Lesotho and have suffered livestock theft as a result 9f illegal immigrants

Shma2022:
@jl115, here is your answer. Our KDF has both light and heavy FN SCAR. The machine that was previously used by special forces.

OK and? You use both... Which I didn't dispute after you mentioned it..... It makes 100% no difference in my argument
