NaijaPikinGidi: A fool like you will most likely be a fool forever. Until Nigeria loses a war, our Presidents and Commanders-In-Chief and troops, have proven to be up to the task unlike your SANDF and fat-cat generals. Your loss of men, taxpayers money, and hardware in CAR should be a strong lesson. You talk of those Dictators ... I guess your ignorance fails to comprehend that ours is a true democracy guided by a Constitution that you and your kin have spent time studying like good students. It's your time, read on!

Henry120: No, thank you. First up-grade your 11 rooivalk helicopters so that they can at-least shoot at something. Besides all our MI-35p's and MI-24B hind's are all up-graded.

Henry120: With ethiopia, that's a different cup of coffee. However, ethiopia has a lot going for it too. 95% of all black IDF and mossad members are of ethiopian descent. Diaspora military knowledge and experience from kicking arab butts could possibly sway the/any conflict between ethiopia v egypt, ethiopia's way.

That's an advantage that has been overlooked here in this thread.

andrewza: That the distance between the to is rather larger and egpty can not support a large enough force that far south. There will be no overt war, at best a raid or terrorist(sponsored by egypt) attack. Even then that would only delay the the dam.

NaijaPikinGidi: People will lose their minds and self control trying to pontificate to Nigeria what the rights and privileges of the President and Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces are? Your pain ... not ours!!

chris365: don't you smell something here?
i think Ethiopia realizes that when Egypt is able to regain itself from the situation they are in and elect a more decisive leader, they'll want to claim back their portion of the Nile which is their lifeline. Ethiopia is preparing for any possibilities.. abi wetin you think?

chris365: Please stop with the hilarious delusion.

you admitted to the ANC thing and yet in defense you still said they didn't kill as much as boko haram. lol

i didn't hear you defend Britain, or what about turkey that fought Kurdish rebels for decades and still had to beg them to lay down their weapons?

Maoist and other insurgents still very active and recently killed many important indian politicians in India?

or insurgents in Colombia, Thailand, Indonesia, Sabah insurgency in Malaysia, Russia that is the second world military power still faces insurgencies til date, etc.. note that these countries have very strong military in world ranking

pleas you guys should not start with this your routine of raising problems you are not free from. post pictures if you don't have verbal gist.

chris365: ignorance is a disease. careful not to purposely inflict yourself with it.

if dealing with insurgency was that easy, perhaps United States would not be begging Taliban to negotiate, seeing that the number of troops and weapons in Afghanistan is enough to level SA in a day or two.

or are you so quick to forget that during the apartheid regime when SA military had it glorious days, they were not able to put down the ANC insurgency?

or how mighty Britain with all it's equipments and very well trained military was unable to put down the IRA insurgency for decades.

boko haram have now targeted soft spots unlike before because they've had their a.sses whooped and have been weakened. thereby resorting to attack soft targets like schools so we'll know they still exist.

try to fend off ignorance from your life o... it's a disease

GidiNaijaPikin: Ask your brother Mike..ZA. But then why must you South Africans point out problems of Boko Haram terrorists yet feel offended when we point you to your own seriously embedded problem of brutal crimes in your beautiful South Africa? Like I said ... please don't start something you can't finish.

GidiNaijaPikin: Again your stupidity is a problem and your brain needs to be checked. Ask your SANDF where they were last weekend when over 44 people were murdered in Cape Town by gangs of the Cape Flats? Please don't overdo yourself.

http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/44-killed-in-bloody-Cape-Town-weekend-20130702

Mike..ZA help yourself.

GidiNaijaPikin: South Africans and their warped sense of reasoning! It's more like asking where your SANDF has been with all the Rhinos in your National Parks being dehorned by Chinese poachers inside South Africa.

With all your shiny weapons yet brutal crime is still the best hobby in all of South Africa? Stop playing stupid games!

Please be useful to yourself.

Henry120: In combat, we'd know which of the two is superior to the other.

GidiNaijaPikin: Let's leave the answer for the battlefield. Don't waste your time now.
Where was this armoured vehicle hiding during the CAR battle?

GidiNaijaPikin: Seems you are rabblerousing ... possibly looking for a blowout like we've had many times over. Nigeria is actively involved and engaged with all weapons and hardware deployed to suite the field operations. SANDF's Gripens will remain in the freezer for a long time to come while we maximise use of all the above listed for success as usual.

Hezron Lorraine: why remind them of the Grippens na.those jets are still as frozen as iceberg in antartica.

Henry120: There are no photos of some of the following at the moment,

- a Bofors FH77B 155mm artillery piece being towed by a prime mover

- a Palmaria 155mm SPH

- Panhard AML 60 AFVs

- Igirigi APC painted in desert camo

- Otokar Cobra APCs painted in desert camo

- Mobile Field Kitchen and Airconditioned Desert Tent of the Ordnance Corps

- Otokar Cobra Armoured Recovery Vehicles (first sighting)

- Panhard M3 APC – battlefield ambulance (first sighting)

- Spartan tracked APCs

chris365: for your information; Guns don't kill people, people kill people. Wars are fought by men and it's not about the weapon but the man wielding it.

There are a lot of weapons in the Nigerian military inventory but as always we don't stick to one tactic (weapon).

You can look up Nigerian SBS training US marines in the Delta with the FN FAL rifle. Our military tends to have a policy of versatility.

Every country's military no matter the level of training still have indisciplined personnel but it's the ability of the military to fish them out and punish them that matters. Your countryman just posted proof of Nigerian soldiers facing trial for misconduct.

And what's with the gay thing in spelling my country? If you don't have anything to say it's best you sit back and read from others and stop exposing your ignorance. And later they'll say Nigerians always start the insults.

@Thiza
hope you're taking notes

andrewza: i actually like the FN fal or R1 in the SANDF, has for the nigerian AK, they probably similar to the AKM

andrewza: The C130J and C295 may both be chooses

http://www.defenceweb.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=30401:feature-sandf-optimum-force-design&catid=32:military-art-a-science&Itemid=112

our need is for

8 coastal surveillance aircraft (eg C295)
6 long-range surveillance aircraft (eg HC-130J)
18 shipboard helicopters (Super Lynx)(this is due to project biro and the plan to purchase 2 to 3 combat support ships or LHDs

saengine: Yes you are right. NAF has made some very foolish decisions. Paying $15 million for jets that will only be used as a stop gap measure. That much money for jets that won't be around for long, very foolish I agree. Then you try justify the purchase by saying Nigeria will use F-7s to learn how to build your own jets, when you could have used much cheaper jets to do the same thing. Why are Nigerian engineers scared to buy and open up JF-17 if you claim they are the same price?You bought outdated crap, just get over it. Even the authour of beeglesblog (who you love so much) says Nigeria could have got much better value for money.

agaugust: go put your ancient south african airforce junk Dakota aeroplanes in a museum.

agaugust: any problem with foreign help ? south african Rooivalk helicopter gunship engine is made in France, and without it your helicopter is a mere box of metals that cannot fly one inch above the ground.

agaugust: if seleka or M23 congo rebels capture these your soldier girls, they wont k.ill them o ! dont ask me what the rebels will do to them instead...i dont really know, you go ask any adult man...

.

solomon111: If the "outside help" you mean are "foreign trained Nigerian engineers",then yes,we will get outside help.

agaugust: [size=16pt]hidden reasons behind nigerian F-7 jet...NAF working to build combat aircraft[/size]

the choice of buying the F-7 jet as temporary fighter, the regular nigerian engineers full dis-assembly and re-assembly of the jet and domestic fabrication/production of some of its spare parts, are said to be a grand plan by nigeria to develop a light combat jet aircraft like the F-7 jet.

chris365: Nice.. But i hope it's not a copycat of AMEBO 3 drone of NAF ?

agaugust: angola border war was conventional war not counter-terrorism war.

nigeria has better experience in war with over 70,000 rebels/guerilla/insurgent forces in sierra leone and liberia, so we should be training south africa how to go back to CAR and defeat seleka rebels and how to reduce your casualties when you face M23 Congo rebels inside thick forest/jungle in case the rebels move bases into hiding.

the worst kind of war in the world is jungle warfare, and nigeria is world champion for that. get it ? yeah man !

nigerian army infantry....king of the jungle !

saengine: And your attacking Nigerian army will spread itself out evenly over 1.2 million square kilometres? Your own logistics will kill you before we even have to fire a single shot. Nigeria cannot attack SA, not today, not in 2014, not ever.
