South Africa seizes an additional $5.7 million from Nigeria. The Nigerian military effort seems confused and besides itself with insanity. http://dailypost.ng/2014/10/06/south-africa-seizes-5-7million-another-nigerian-secret-arms-deal/

LOL

So we are indirectly benefiting from the incompetence of the Nigerian military and defence planners.

ThaVluit:
What happened to what was reported to be an "imminent swop" with Boko Haram?

At its initial stages the BH insurgency was supposed to be a police and intelligence agencies fight.

1. They failed badly!!!!

A. BH become stronger fighting conventionally.

2. The military are failing,even if they win.

B. BH has shown it can sustain an asymmetrical war.

3. Focused is now on crashing BH conventional fighting capabilities.


And more and more and more and more and more!!!!!!!!!

agaugust:
The sources include Nigerian minister for finance with her name, Nigeria army and air force cheif of staffs with their names, and of course it was so real defenceweb of South Africa published it and joined the list of sources.

Please don't die of envy
.

Envy of what?

You mean your army,air force chief of staffs,who still deny and refuse to honour the men who serve under them?

At the presence of the Nigerian army,BH devils strengthened their capabilities.

Few years back their campaign focused on bombings(pure terror),the availability of weapons(mostly from the army) and resources made them the deadly force they are today able to field army like formations for battles.

Able to openly confront your army and defeat them in battles. CAPTURING LAND!!!!!!!

Henry120:
Amisom forces, mostly from uganda and the somali national army lay siege on the coastal Al-shaabab strong hold of barawe

The town(Barawe) fell early this morning.

agaugust:
What's your point exactly? It's a nice cool story, but outdated 5 years ago information, try and update yourself.....

No weapons just simple speculation.

Fuelled by certain people we know.

Centrifude:
This is why I believe that aircraft carriers should be own by countries that can afford to lose them, when you have A.Cs you need to reconfigure your entire navy defense system just to protect the damn things, but who knows maybe they would've been able to handle it hey.

I concur.

The next war to include them against a navy with diesel subs such as Turkey,Brazil,Sweden and South Korea will show just,how difficult it is to protect A.Cs.

agaugust:
Who has ever done exactly that on this thread? Everybody once in a while posts NON-MILITARY comments and we feast on it for a while, then return to our normal military food. No big deal, all we need is to use common sense and avoid crossing the line. I avoid any negative reference to anybody's family. I can cast jokes about your friends, but not your family
.

I just find it childish,for people to take offence from insults directed to them from the web.

NaijaPikinGidi:
Are you out of your depth? You don't need to show your low sense of reasoning.

Butt hurt?

Your own medicine hard to swallow?

Since you get butt hurt so easily,how about we stick to strict military discussions only.

DieVluit:
The wreckage. Let's just hope the missing lieutenant is not up next.

They'll deny him too.

COIN warfare just turned into semi-conventional.

They can't contain BH.

patches689:
Remeber when augugbugugug was saying our latest phase in the GBADS project would only be completed after 2020?

Rheinmetall Air Defence of Switzerland is upgrading part of the South African National Defence Force’s (SANDF) twin 35mm Oerlikon GDF-005 towed anti-aircraft guns (AAG) to the latest GDF-007 standard.

This programme is due to be completed by 2017 and includes upgrading the current weapons to fire the latest 35mm AHEAD (advanced hit efficiency and destruction) ammunition, which has already been sold to many countries.
http://www.janes.com/article/43318/south-africa-to-get-upgraded-gdf-weapons-aad142

This upgrade will really bolster the SANDF air defence capabilities.

The C2 and communication systems will be compatible with the CNIS. Meaning a lot of SA companies will be involved.

I just can't wait for the delivery of the RSR 320 radar and the Umkhonto missile.

NaijaPikinGidi:
Do you need an extra straw?

Do you need citizenship,you BH conflict refuge

NaijaPikinGidi:
The latest McDonald burger meal in Thokoza! It comes with their favourite two (2) litre Coke. You'll be amused at how seven people with straws guzzle down that 2litre bottle of coke! #forReal

Should I post a video of Nigerians eating "bush meat"? From monkeys to whatever?

Shut up refugee.

agaugust:

He wrote SADF and Executive Outcomes ops there in detail. Beegealge has personal contact with him....You prove he is NOT !

http://beegeagle./2014/03/01/nigerian-troops-kill-13-boko-haram-terrorists-arrest-15-others-in-raid-on-camp/

.

Stuff that a person can find on the internet? Yeah,we believe you

What's this desperation,to be associated with certain people? Seeking credibility?

agaugust:
His blog is used by Nigerian military and his recommendations are accepted by Nigerian military top brass who meet him face to face.

.

If that's true.

Your military is a pure joke then,a top brass that can't come up with your armed forces' required operational needs?

Recommendations based on "prices and available funds"? What a shame.

agaugust:
Post proof that the man is a NAF pilot .

Boko Haram is more intelligent than all 50 million South Africans combined

.

Prove that his not.

Boko Haram is more intelligent than all 170 million Nigerian combined

iterator24:
lmao! dog and yam? they'de richer in nutrients than pap [GM]

Yes,Nigerians eat DOGS,Bush meat etc!!!!!

I'd rather eat pap than to eat such crap.

DieVluit:
Wing Commander Chimda Hedima. Beheaded by Boko Haram after his jet was shot down. And then there was the propaganda. NA refuse to acknowledge him and they deny he's with the NA.

Oh crap and they claim to have advanced data links.

They can't track their airframes during missions.

RIP to the poor airman.

iterator24:
GMO foods and pap? really?

Way better than eating dogs and yum.

Henry120: What sort of question is this? What do I now call a terrorist?........ MikeZA.

DNA, Teeth and all other relevant verification tests were done on the filthy terrorist. That was why the Army did not make any comment more than 8 days after.

By mere looking at those bodies, it is very clear, it is the shekau impostor we've seen in some videos.

You mean this rubbish?

Fact is,if you don't even know who's the leader of BH.

Posting images of the dead doesn't change a thing.

Henry120: Congratulations, you have now been noticed.

Oh cry baby.

AugustineAgain: How many ships will share the 5,500 tonnes extra fuel? How many tonnes refuels one frigate?

I said some frigates need 4,000 tonnes to fill tank, so how many days will ALL your ships stay at sea in Gulf Of Guinea?

Or you return home as soon as you arrive? How do you patrol around in circles from Angola to Ghana, or are you just coming to mark register that you came and left immediately ?

South Africa has ZERO experience of piracy war at sea

See all the logistics and fuel problems Nigerians are showing you now? You never though about the distance and ship max range

You want to be tall, but your two legs are too short

SAN = Sea Dwarf
.

You said frigates need 4000 tons of fuel.

Remember that's your opinion not a fact.

agaugust: We don't have 18 rebel groups.

Where will you land? Niger Delta? MEND fighters are anxiously waiting to k.ill South Africans in revenge for Henry Okah !

Welcome into the mangrove swamps, that is where MEND militants will bury y.ou
.

Now you remember we put to jail your rebels? When you failed to do so.


1. You again,reveal that there's an active armed rebel operating inside your land.

2. You again,reveal your military is so weak that it would depend on rebels to protect Nigeria if she was attacked.

3. You again,reveal your military has been failing to WIN battles at home with rebels. Meaning the fight against BH is totally futile,as you'll go to bed with them?

4. You again,reveal there's a movement which can be exploited by some nations to cause problems for your FG?

5. Henry Okah=@Henry120? Lol

Henry120: The evidence is clear. The Nigerian Army cannot be accused of insincerity.

The Nigeria army is pulled by the nose.

agaugust: [size=16pt]Rooivalk is an dedicated undedicated attack helicopter of ancient armaments

1. ONLY one gun
2. Some dumb old school rocket pods with zero guidance


.[/size]

The first dedicated attack helicopter didn't carry missiles,so if we are gonna describe what's a "dedicated AT helo" will look from it.

Rooivalk can carry missiles,so your point is irrelevant.

I can see you're running from the other facts I put to you.

You know what awaits you,if you're gonna invite the "ZAR" to the dance
floor.

Henry120: The identity of the dead terrorist isn't in question.

Dude,why call a dead body a terrorist?

That can be anybody,you must prove his identity beyond reasonable doubt with DNA tests and stuff.

It seems one knows exactly who's "Shekau". They don't lookalike if you ask me.

jteku: Sorry to ask please, is south Africa a country or southern region of Africa

ignorance or............?

South Africa is a country in Southern Africa. See what I did there?

Not surprising though many people have been saying my country,doesn't have a country.

Henry120: You are fond of propagating lies.

You are having an emotional break down.

Henry120: Mumu.

@Henry120 is butthurt.

His ins.ults,propaganda effort and patriotism aren't having an effect in the battlefield.

Henry120: Anybody can assume the name shekau, this won't be the first, and there are probably a few lunatics willing to take up the num de Guerre.

The photos of the Impostor shekau (bashir mohammed) clearly bears the resemblance of the man, we have seen in a couple propaganda videos.

We don't care.


Your military don't even know who's their enemy.

rka1: THE PURPORTED SHEKAU VIDEO IN CIRCULATION


The Defence Headquarters is studying the claims made in the video purportedly released by the terrorists showing their leader Abubakar Shekau as dismissing his death. From immediate observation and what some online news outlets claimed to have seen, the video did not indicate when it was shot neither did it show any proof of life or currency such as screen time or date. The video also did not make any reference to anything that has happened since the impostor’s reported death.

It is also noteworthy that the air plane said to be mentioned in the video had been missing before he was killed. It should not surprise anybody if the terrorists decide to manipulate pictures, clone another Shekau or upload a pre-recorded video all in a bid to prove invincible.

As far as we are concerned, the individual who was appearing in video and claiming to be the leader of the terrorist group was killed in the Kondunga battle in September. The resemblance of the corpse and that of the eccentric character was incontrovertible. His identity was equally corroborated by people who knew him before we announced his death.

So, while waiting to see the new video before any further statement, our message to them is that justice will be served to whoever bears that name or designation and whoever engages in act

http://defenceinfo.mil.ng/the-purported-shekau-video-in-circulation-2/

Your military is confused.

Propaganda and massive troop numbers aren't working.

You don't have control over the war.

I told Nigerians a week back.

"Shekau" is pop up again to embarrass your military.

Now he has released another video,claiming "alive and active"?

Henry120: You deployed most of those men after most of the intense fighting had been tackled by the Tanzanians.

SA parabats were the first the engage the enemy,when some mai mai group attacked them. All we know is that their commander was killed.


Which intense fighting?

The battle of Kibati?

South African,Tanzanian troops fought alongside two FARDC brigades.

One brigade under command of: Colonel Mamadou Ndala

The other under of the regional commander: Major General Ambamba.

Which battle and where?
