agaugust: Nigeria is now the second mightiest military force in Africa after Egypt, south Africa is a distant fifth position in Africa, Algeria is third, Ethiopia is fourth position. FACT !!!



the south african missiles you listed above A-Dartar, Mokopa, and the dead out-dated R-darta are all air to air or air to ground launched and altitude is not very relevant. the others, Ingwe has about 30 times less altitude than the nigerian missile. only Umkhonto has a higher altitude, but a far less range....8 times less range than the nigerian missile.

also use your head and think, nigeria is improving its missile range every day with different types of rockets and missiles being built and tested randomly.... nigeria will rain missiles on south africa and re-colonize your chicken hearted soweto republic, nelson mandela will be granted asylum in calabar like charles taylor





all south africa and DENEL combined together have NO weapon with range of 120km that can match nigerian made Epe tested missile...FACT !!!

nigeria has upgraded its Epe base station missile range to 120km.

nigerian made missiles are heading for a final minimum range of between 500km to 1,000km and i can prove that even without any current source...FACT !!!

go hide your 70km range DENEL G6 artillery you south african mofos, nigeria will rain down multiple rockets on your heads from over 100km range away....run run run....run like women...soweto fools

.

Which Nigeria missile has longer range than the Ingwe? What was the range of the RSA-3 and RSA-4 missiles?. Your Epe missile is outclassed by the Torgos which had a 300km range. Let's wait for the Marlin.

NaijaPikinGidi: Silly kid. PlayStation and XBox getting the better of your rational human sense of reasoning!

We are talking about military stuff here. So if you wanna remain locked to your imaginary playstation world remain so. Cause we all know about your obsolete artillery pieces,with a range of 24km.

NaijaPikinGidi: How many times have you, and will you continue to ask these same kinds of silly questions? You must be the slowest YoYo in all of South Africa. You bore the hell out of this thread with your sheer stupidity. Now go suck some milk from your mama's bossom!!

Correct. You can't answer it. Now here's the a list of the best armed forces in Africa 1. South Africa. 2. Egypt 3. Ethiopia 4. Nigeria 5.Algeria.

chris365: wow, you actually responded to this simple and shot jab twice. Must have hit your balls there .

I'm hitting your blue balls so hard,you're resorting to showing me your yellow coloured teeth. Now let's talk about military stuff nothing else.

chris365: untill you can show us one battle south africa has won with the denel weapons (even if it's against rebels), you are not permitted to spew this trash talk.

During the battle of Lomba river,out 70 T-55 tanks 62 were destroyed or disabled by the G5,G6 and Ratel ZT3(in prototype form). Remember the G5 and G6 howitzers were stationed 50km away,directed by highly Recces. The remaining 10 tanks were found abandoned,by SAn salvage crews. Now show me where Nigeria,won a battle with Nigerian weapons. Your armed forces lack experience,with that reason they should be ranked below Ethiopia and Egypt.

chris365: kid talk.... That's the only response you deserve for now

Show us "adult talk" pedo. All I have seen you doing was posting links and cut&pastes. You have no "military knowledge" pedo.

chris365: kid talk.... That's the only response you deserve for now

The fact remains: South African made weapons will out range and overwhelm your armed forces. Systems like the AMLAGC(G7 prototype).

NaijaPikinGidi: What a hushed/timid response to the powerful statement relayed by this news article? Who even let you out of your kitchen with unwashed pots and pans everywhere? You are a shameful idio.t!! Show us where the help has come from if not from your weak imagination!?

"Fact is": In the battlefield if Nigeria was to meet the mighty SA,your armed forces would be out ranged. Killed before they can get close enough to return fire.

[size=16pt] nigerian made missiles will be a threat to all african regional powers



Nigeria Resumes Rocket Testing

http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/national-news/132850-nigeria-resumes-rocket-testing- [/size]



AFTER an extended hiatus, Nigeria has resumed its controversial testing of rockets at the Centre for Space Transport and Propulsion (CSTP)—an operational arm of the National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA).

Dr. Charles Attah Osheku, the new CSTP director and chief executive officer, confirmed Friday, in a late night phone interview, that a series of test firings of experimental rockets were conducted last March and also in April.

The launches, he said, are ongoing: “We are conducting the tests primarily for scientific purposes, but also as training exercises for our technical personal and a challenge to our scientists and engineers, for whom the experience is vitally important”.

A NASRDA scientific officer, who requested anonymity, reported that CSTP has recently launched several rockets “with varying degrees of success”. Some of these, he said, had reached altitudes of three kilometers, possibly higher.

The size and configuration of the crafts, or whether there is foreign involvement, was not specified. The Guardian had, on Sunday, November 16, 2008, reported that CSTP had been secretly launching indigenously constructed experimental rockets.

During The Guardian’s visit to Epe, in 2008, Oluremi A. Fashade, the then Coordinator of the Centre, brought out one of the rockets and released a video of a successful test. The solid fuel missile was about three metres long and constructed entirely from locally sourced materials.

In his interview, Fashade — who now heads Research and Development at the African Regional Centre for Space Science and Technology Education, Il-Ife — said NASRDA would eventually “graduate to bigger and more complex craft.”

Osheku did not reveal the exact dimensions of the rockets his Centre is currently testing. But an earlier interview, with another source, left the impression that these missiles are larger than the ones Fashade had been experimenting with.

Another uncertainty is the site of the launches. At Epe, the testing range was adjacent to the campus of Lagos State University — and may still be.

But when Fashade was Coordinator, he told The Guardian that NASRDA would construct a new launch facility, on a remote island, off Nigeria’s coast.

No one is willing to discuss this now. When the subject was broached to Dr. S.O. Mohammed, the director general at NASRDA, his reaction was: “We don’t want to talk about ‘launch sites’. The Federal Government will decide if, and when, that issue is to be addressed.”

Internationally, rocketry is a sensitive subject, because it encompasses “dual use technology”—instruments that can be used, either for peaceful or military purposes.

“Nigeria must, therefore, tread softly,” Mohammed allowed, ” to avoid sending the wrong signals about our intentions, which are entirely peaceful”.

The Space Roadmap mandates NASRDA to develop a full-scale launch vehicle by 2025. But the Agency also has research, training and instructional programmes that are contingent upon rocket development

This includes a miniature satellite programme, Mohammed noted, whose centrepiece is CanSat— a satellite the size of a soft drink can. It is being developed, with Japanese collaborators, for atmospheric and space weather research.

this is one of the reasons the secretive and powerful nigerian military is ranked above ethiopia, south africa, and algeria.

Ever heard about the "vela incident" or the RSA-3 and RSA-4 ICBMs?,South Africa's Denel can develop weapons of mass destruction if SA was threatened. Right now Nigeria's 3 km rocket is a joke,outraged by the A-darter(20km),mokopa(10km),Ingwe(5km),Umkhonto(13km soon to be extended to 20 or 30km) and the out commissioned R-darter(60km) missile.

chris365: i can't stop laughing. LWKMFH

we already told them our military don't run a model agency like SANDF. So when we have limited information, that's how the military wants it to be.

Your armed forces (military) have never been tested in an open conventional warfare. They only fought rebels sometime ago. And would your military be "classifying"? That you can't treat your injured soldiers,and you're taking them abroad for treatment?. In an open conventional warfare if you can't treat your injured quickly and put them back in the field you're doomed and moral of your troops will go down low.

It is good for them that they're showing off their "moves",in the safety of their homes not in the battlefield.

chris365: So why did your president beg after we threatened? Since you could have easily wiped out the paper tiger military

i hope you also know that zuma didn't go to libya for national interest but his own. Ghadafi still has billions of dollars stored in ANC investments and SA banks. That's why he went to libya, for his interest not yours.

Same reason he's been defending dictators. 0band tyrants

Zuma warned that the conflict will spill into neighbouring countries. And it did as we can see now in Mali. Show me where your president threatened SA with military actionm. Boko Haram would stage a coup overnight after such statement.

NaijaPikinGidi: Brave Zuma? Where was he when his friend Ghaddafi was pulled out from his rat hole and killed like a rat? Stop your day dreaming! Your weak posturing makes no sense. You'll come begging and apologising to Nigeria again like you did not too long ago! LWKMD.

Ghaddafi wanted to stay and keep fighting in Libya. That's why he was killed. Nigeria is a "paper tiger" in military terms.

DictatorZAR: Fool I have a 6 year old child not 18 it just shows how fvcktup the Igbo brain and morals are, and by the way you to fckn ugly

Boy stop monkeys dont mix with humans its beastiality.

Nigeria is a paedophile country,I mean which country regard married young girls(some as young as 9) as adults in its constitution.

agaugust: .

Egyptian Army Vs Egyptian People ...Power Pass Power !

.

Egyptians can't FIGHT!!!!!!!!

chris365: ok, lets start by mentioning how many friends SA has on the continent.

no country even respects you, your president's tail went under his a*s when GEJ threatened him. no country respects SA in africa.. fact

and old weapons used by seleka made you pack your modern jets and helics back to pretoria with speed

Fact is your GEJ hid in Abuja when the Libyan war was raging,only the brave Zuma went to Libya with the civil war still ongoing. No African country will dare open criticise SA. Zambia's vice president tried it,only to change his words quick. Tanzania,DRC and Mozambique are friendly to SA,infect Ivory coast is trying to build ties with SA.

chris365: hehehehe.. i told those white pigs that it's only a matter of time

talk of a perfect society

Your country's ruling party is splitting,your country is torn between christians in the South and muslims in the North. Paedophiles!!!!!!

agaugust: .

UN Congo DRC......Indian Mi-35 Hind helicopter gunships...saw action many months ago...the Indians have kept all rebels in check before FIB came

.

Why did they fail to stop M23 if their helicopter saw "many action"?. Only Ukraine choppers saw much in bombing M23 supply lines.

agaugust: dummy, monthly and quarterly crude oil production fluctuates for every country at one time or the other.

Angola has no oil sands like nigeria, and much less natural gas...and nigerian OSO Condensate super light oil is NOT controlled by OPEC, so no quota, and nobody knows how much OSO OIL nigeria produces unless we tell them

.

The oil that is stolen by random people?...Fact is South Africa is more powerful than Nigeria. If a war ever broke out between the two countries,SA can use its status on the continent to gain more allies. Nigeria will struggle with weapons systems,resorting to buy old soviet era hardware from countries like Ukraine.

chris365: you've started with another propaganda again abi? Since it has now been discovered that they did the work in DRC for you, you want to claim you built their rifle.

That is a chinese made rifle for your info. So stop lying.

I feel sorry for you. Tanzanian special forces use a Denel made rifle.

Please read before you can reply Mr. I said "Tanzanian special forces".

agaugust: even foolish countries of the world like Togo have army snipers that can k.ill at long ranges.

since when did old 1940 world war II sniper tactics become a great topic to debate about ? its nothing special, go read war history of 1940 long range army snipers.

It is not special but it requires a lot of training. Snipers can stop or pin down an advancing full battalion. Togo's snipers are not on the top 10 long range sniper kills,including your Nigeria,

Msauza: What is it that South Africa fear about Zim?

Our neighbours who were happy,when we promised them old helicopters?

chris365: NA

In South Africa training like that is done by Boermag.

chris365: Nigerian army snipers are also expert at hitting targets at long range and can handle long range rifles. that is a special skill for our special forces and yours as well.

but the ordinary soldiers are trained to be snipers. it's a normal training for the army

Link please. Show us where your snipers actually killed combatants in long ranges.

Tanzanian special forces are using Denel made rifle. Even Rwanda was threatening DRC with massive movement of Ratels.

zaandrew: you mean when they did nothing? Indian peace keepers care more about drinking tea than going on patrol

They did nothing!!!! Only went to observe and put barbed wires around Goma when M23 was advancing on the city.

[size=16pt]South Africans turn desperate on nairaland.....looking for military glory....sources of Congo DRC war achivements activities now come form Tweeter and Facebook....as SANDF history of non-achievement remains the same [/size]

south africans now seek the help of a dozen civilians who sit in their homes with a laptop googling google to get 3rd hand information and soweto propagander in a FAILED attempt to improve south africa's every worsening combat history.

what a shame, even in a Congo DRC war civil rebellion, south african military cannot fight alone, they are getting daily b..reast f..eeding by the whole world through the UN and about 20 countries' armies and airforces


India's army officer in the Congo DRC battlefield strategizes with Congolese army and others in the UN multinational force.
.

That's was last year when the Indian peacekeepers,were trying to stop M23's advance.

zaandrew: because you failed to read this sid at the same conference

“South Africa was not specifically requested to supply snipers as part of its troop contribution but the 850-strong battalion moved to the DRC to be part of the FIB does have certain capabilities,” Lieutenant General Derrick Mgwebi told a briefing in Thaba Tshwane this morning when asked about the sniper’s kill.

That 850-strong battalion is backed a company of parabats,a platoon of Recces(whom are highly trained,dedicated and causing discomfort among M23 commanders) plus Engineers and Signals.

chris365: yeah right. you and your media were quick to quote unconfirmed reports. now your military has spoken the truth, you a*s is exposed.

didn't you read where he said it is false? am i the one who wrote the report.

No,it was troops on the ground in DRC.

Henry120: You do know the tanzanians and not the south african are leading the assault effort? South africa should ordinarily not be in congo as the tanzanians are doing all the work with the congolese.

Like I said before you don't "follow" wars and you know nothing. Here's what happened like Lieutenant General Derrick said: FADRC is leading the operation with two brigades,and behind each brigade there's a company from TDF or SANDF since they were split to Alpha company and Bravo. And TDF special forces are still setting somewhere in their base. While their SANDF counterparts are "performing miracles". But M23 has been badly beaten,they retreated to lick their deep wounds in Kilmanyoka. GET IT? Since you know nothing you won't GET IT!!!!!!!

CraigB: Here's your story of bravery. Heroic SANDF soldier. Treated and back in the frontline.
