Showing you the kinda tests, you like?.... Random shooting on hills and you can't compare Chinese weapons to yours locally built weapon.... Just like saying American reaper drones aren't battle-tested in a environment.... America has already made a name in the defence industry, their name speaks for itself.... But south African, yours have to be battle-proven not random testing like others, that shows it worthiness

My bru every thing from our Rooivalk, Oryx, Ratel, Casspir, Mamba, A109, Rooikat have actually seen battle!! That's why countries around the world buy our weapon systems including Nigeria

Odunayaw:
I'm waiting for the screenshot @jl115

It's coming just wading through your budgets from 2020 to 2016 can't remember which one it is

What else do you need now?....... Thai army tested it, Pakistan bought it; now Nigerian army is currently using it in a real warzone.... Pls give me source about the those show glass weapons you have made and where it was tested

Are you ret@rded or something? you think a company like Denel or Paramount just puts things together and sells thousands of pieces to customers around the world without testing it's products?

get real dude

Odunayaw:
What did I say?

This:

"8years here and no one can boldly claim I join mudfights or dick measuring."

"I only step in when I begin to sense lies or fallacies. My posts in this group and Bidexi's group is witness"

Odunayaw:
Refresh my memory with screenshots Picasso

coming soon don't worry

davefurn:
Like you were in the meeting with the Chinese delegates

No just common sense

Your point is what exactly?

Odunayaw:
Huh?

just judging on what you said several weeks ago

Odunayaw:
Do you need me to make sign language for you to understand that we spend outside of our official budget on the military?

Where did the money for the Tucanos come?

from your budget

Odunayaw:
One or two of your nephews should know the answer

Aren't you supposed to be the self proclaimed "moral compass" of this thread?

davefurn:
we battle-tested it, main reasons it was sold to us

fyi, Nigeria went to China to buy it, they didn't sell it to you to battle test it

davefurn:
we battle-tested it, main reasons it was sold to us

So it's a no.......my point is proven

davefurn:
We are using it, in the north-east and it working effectively in a battle-proven environment simple..... You can check it out....... We mostly buy from Chinese or Thai or Pakistan due to the limitations placed on us previously; you can tell from our ordeal on the tucanos

Was it battle tested before you got it?

kabe1:
The Nigerian military is well equipped for the threats the country is going to face now and into the future.

I'm not going to indulge you in your stupidity.

So in other words you don't have it??

Odunayaw:
Your poor education at work again?

Don;t you read your own country's budget?

davefurn:
Point proven,how? villages that held during 2020 abi 2018.... You southies reasoning sometimes ehn

It proves his point that Nigeria is indeed in a civil war

davefurn:
They start insulting,
https://www.nairaland.com/2239266/battle-field-discussion-picture-video/2131

This thread alone is a proof our locally made weapons....browse through it

I asked you if your Vt4 tanks were battle tested...not for you to redirect me to a thread I already follow

davefurn:
Lol, in your dreams abi?

13000 ships pass through our ports every year vs less than 4000 for Nigeria

davefurn:
Then it's not battle tested in a war-like environment with the intention to destroy.....

It has been battle tested muppet.........tell me how many kills has your new Vt4 tanks got??

davefurn:
I don't see any reason for pirates to be in Mozambique waters compared to South South waters and Atlantic oceans that's is the common route for oil carriers and other goods. Like I said we are developing our navy actively, even in this situation; piracy dropped down by 80% first quarter of this year

My bru our waters are much busier than yours, also piracy was a problem in Moz however since we started patrolling there Piracy has literally dropped to 0

davefurn:
Ohh, it was even the sadf era..... I want the sandf era; the sadf era was undeniably terrific then

If we are at peace must we go shoot random civilians with it?

I posted a video of one shooting several targets in as part of a display in a foreign country...but here is more:

davefurn:
Yh they held at one point. I will be honest, we were caught off-guard due to our porous borders

Ok then greenandgolds point is proven....thank you very much

davefurn:
Where are your lst, not that wasted frigate pls..... We are building our navy, just keep calm

Wasted Frigates?....my bru they actively Patrol our Waters....why is it that there is 0 piracy in our and Mozambique waters??

also why don't post a photo of your Frigate?

davefurn:
Tanks kills, combat situation it was used in

Pre production ZT3s destroyed several Russian tanks during Operation Modular in 1987:

You can read more about it here:

GreenandGold:
Or how they land a helicopter on a ship and then BOOM they're suddenly the best in Africa...

My bru when there LST stopped at Simons Town for some R&R

"Showing the Southies what it actually means to have a Blue Water Navy that can put out to sea, project power to distant lands and achieve national and regional objectives by military diplomacy or force of arms. Not the SAN moribund in port with fancy toys that can't swim."

davefurn:
Source

Source for what? the amount of Ratel Zt3s or a source for the tank kills? which one you want?

davefurn:
Quote which territories they are holding now pls?...... They are holding zero now, just hit and run...soon they will be eradicated

So you agree they hold/held vast territories at one stage?

davefurn:
Lol, same hyping; how many have been put into use.... Or you just design, make one and then scrap. Atleast the weapons Nigerians make are being battle tested everytime and remodeled constantly to deal with shortcomings, that's what is called development..... By the way, it's to be expected from South Africa being how early you guys started especially during the sadf era

52..........And they have actual tank kills in combat!!

davefurn:
Lol, the there was a war in Tunisia and Morroco then during the terrorists attacks, ohhhh the capitol invasion is a war then; sometimes common sense applies, don't let Google do simple analysis for you or those carrying guns shooting all around in the us......... Know what to take in and what not to take in even you're no different from a robot

Terrorist aren't holding actual territory like in Nigeria!!

davefurn:
ANC out, sure about that?....... Nigeria is going through a precarious situation but sometimes using dollars to determine wealth per capital not considering the cost of living is somehow based to me

Yes I'm pretty sure....polls put them barely over 40%.

Also in terms of cost of living SA is also much better off We are one of the cheapest countries to live in my bru!!

GreenandGold:
Jeez, I was talking military spending here, let's not talk human development index because that's where you will get slayed to kingdom come.Let's keep in the defence.

they will get slayed there to.....3 upgraded mig 21s, 2 Opv and a LST and all of a sudden they think they are world beaters

@Kabe1 could you please post Nigeria's Anti Tank weapons similar to the ZT3? I think the group would love to see!
