overhypedsteve:
how often do you think with your @nus. this ex SADF men that you talk about what were airframe were they trained to fly and what airframe are they flying now in their alleged tour in Nigeria.

SA merc continue to train your military even today.

stillchris:
how does this change the fact that we trained your air force chief? bastarrd Nigerian

It changes everything because MK and APLA rebels were all trained by incompetent militaries across Africa except those who were trained by Algeria and include Mandela. SANDF retrained them because they were very ignorant of many things in Military affairs. The skill and tactics that they are as at today using were all acquired from SANDF.

New war record by African Napoleon....

Major General Adeosun of Nigerian army....

Sets new African record in speed of completing a battle !

German army style.....Blitzkrieg....Lightening speedoooo !

"Bama’s reclaim, which was led by the General Officer Commanding (GOC) of the Division, Maj-Gen. Lamidi Adeosun, was said to be a very “fast and secretive” one in which the officers and men had to toe the line behind the infantry general into the town without knowing his next moves.

“The GOC did not meet any serious resistance between Konduga and Bama indicative of the fact that the insurgents who are now in confusion had actually retreated and galvanized arsenals in Bama town waiting for the show down to finally reclaimed the captured town last September,” said a Bama resident that came to Maiduguri Tuesday afternoon."

type used by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Training Centre, formed under the auspices of the UN. The Cessna 150 was used as an initial flying trainer. The aircraft obtained by the Museum is of the type flown by Azanian People's Liberation Army (APLA) members in exile, but is not one of the actual aircraft used to train the volunteers. Members of these Non-Statutory Forces were trained at Zaria in Nigeria and are referred to as “The Class of ‘77”.

In 1976 a decision was taken by the APLA High Coomand, Central Committee and the Military Comission to train aviatiors. A group of 22 were identified and sent to the Nigerian Civil Aviation Training Centre at Zaria. Fourteen pilots and eight aircraft engineers were trained. One of those was Deputy Chief of the SAAF, Major General Gerald Malinga.

SANDF retrained them because what they have leant from musketry to drills were just hilarious more like apes exercises. We needed to shape them up and taught them the right things.

[size=16pt]Nigeria trained South African air force chief ! Wow !

We own them o !

MK and APLA members were all retrained by SANDF because all that they have leant from foreign militaries were just a joke. Hence, it was required of them to be retrained from basics and hence be granted their ranks from their various rebel groups.

WILL BOKO HARAM EVER BE DEFEATED? IT SEEMS AS IF THEIR CAUSE HAS ALREADY INFILTRATED INTO THE HEARTS OF OTHER MUSLIMS FOR SUPPORT. IT IS SPREADING LIKE A WILD FIRE AND CONTAGIOUS DISEASE.

BH BOMB MAIDUGURI YET AGAIN.

Henry120:
We have a transport fleet/ structures that is 3 times larger than that of South-Africa.

Nigerian Paratroopers continue to perform combat drops. In the just concluded flintlock exercise Nigerian special forces conducted free fall high altitude drops.

Nigerian paratroopers and special forces have never reached that level of transporting equipments with parachute, not to mention landing with dogs. All the free fall exercises Nigeria has leant it abroad. SA has an institution which even train civilians to do HALOs and HAHOs that you can never find in Nigeria even if you like.

agaugust:
The NATO force did not use anti-submarine helicopters and anti-torpedo counter measures against the South African submarine.

Targeting an enemy warship with submarine torpedo is only stage one of sea combat. Stage two is submarine fires torpedo and ship replies with anti-torpedo decoys and defeats the torpedo. Stage three is that the position of the hiding submarine is now exposed and the ship attacks with it's own torpedoes and also launches anti-submarine helicopter to attack the submarine.

Stage four is that Mandela's bank loan purchased submarine will be sunk that day !
.

Your poor measures will not work at all. Torpedo's are not easy to defeat at all even with the most anti-torpedo mechanisms. With submarines prevention will always be better than cure. Submarines should be detected before they make any attack because it is very difficult to stop them once they have launched the attack. It will be like most stu.pid man who will trust his natural immunity over HIV instead of using a condom. If you wait for subs to discharge torpedoes and think that your anti-torpedo suite will protect you, then you are playing with fire. Such is only meant to be used as second line of defence when sub was undetected in time and often the measure is said to be a gambling game. It is not guaranteed that it will stop torpedoes. You are still an amateur when it comes to naval tactics. Currently, Nigeria has zero ship that can stop submarines other than their outdated heli that can perform anti-sub operations. Only one sub can cause a serious damage against NN as in current.

agaugust:
Everybody on nairaland knows South Africa is more advanced than Nigeria only in manufacturing army equipment, but Nigeria is more advanced than South Africa in manufacturing navy equipment like modern stealth warships . You have your area of strength, we have our own strength too
.

Why don't you say that China built the ship for you.

rka1:
No, about 35 now by NA and 2 (with 2 unconfirmed as they keep claiming to have captured them every other week) by Chad & Niger and nil by Cameroon where BH just occupied a new town.

Don't let me to educate you about Nigeria even though I am not currently there. All the towns which were recovered from BH were all reported as have been recovered by solely Nigerian troops, even though in reality it were other forces. Just yesterday Chadian troops recovered two more town but the international media reported as if it were Nigerian troops, dummy. The truth was only revealed when I stated googling and reading between the lines.

agaugust:
My name is Augustine, so what?

You have failed to prove that every other Augustine in this world is me, like I am the only one on earth called Augustine?

The texture, the feel, the style, the layout and the reasoning et al on those posts say a lot about you.

EVarn:
We have liberated 32 towns from BH in 3 weeks,that does not qualify as inexperience.

32 towns were recovered by Nigerian, Chadian and to lesser extend Niger troops. Don't be stingy and give credit to where it is deserved.

agaugust:

CHAD + NIGER REPUBLIQUE + CAMEROON = 10% OF COMBAT

NIGERIA = 90% OF COMBAT

No need to add the fact that Chadian air force = 0% After they stupiidly bombed and killed 30 innocent civilians
.

What is it that Nigerian troops are doing and Chad troops cannot do? 10% is an insult to the noble neighbours of Nigeria who had given all to save the lives of poor Nigerians. This is how it goes as listed below.


Nigeria=30%
Chad=30%
Cameroon=20%
Niger=20%.


Fact!! Fact!! Fact!!

For the benefit of a d@mb Msauza;

Nigerian troops recapture two strategic local governments from Boko Haram
The Nigerian military on Saturday said it has recaptured two more local governments from Boko Haram militants in the North Eastern part of Nigeria after intense fighting.
The spokesperson for the Nigerian Army, Sani Usman, a Colonel, said in a statement that troops have flushed out Boko Haram terrorists from Mafa and Marte Local Government Areas of Borno state.
“In continuation of avowed recovery of territories held by Boko Haram insurgents, the Nigerian military have recaptured Mafa and Marte Local Governments Areas of Borno State on Wednesday and Friday respectively, Mr. Sani said. “During these operations, the gallant and courageous troops recovered a large quantity of high caliber of arms and ammunitions including anti-aircraft guns from the insurgents.”
He added, “It is significant to note that our troops did not suffer any casualty during these operations. Presently, troops are conducting cordon and search and mopping up operations in the recovered territories, while effort is ongoing to recover more grounds from the fleeing terrorists.
“With the capture of Mafa, Marte LGAs, and the Chadian troops holding fort in Dikwa, the international route from Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad and Central African Republic is now fully secured.
“With this positive development, the security of the area has significantly improved. It is hoped that international trade and socio-economic activities would be restored along this corridor.”
Nigerian troops have routed terrorists from different towns and communities, including Bara, the Headquarter of Gulani Local Government Area of Yobe State in the last few weeks.
Soldier also retook Gulak, the Headquarter of Madagali Local Government Area of Adamawa State.
Other locations also cleared in the course of the ongoing operation include: Shikah, Fikayel, Tetebah, Buza, Kamla and Bumsa, the military said.
With the intensive military operations, the troops have also recovered Monguno, Marte, Gamboru Ngala, Dikwa and Baga among other big towns and communities.

on March 10, 2015 / in News 11:29 am / Comments


BY KINGSLEY OMONOBI

ABUJA – Following the air and land bombardment to flush out Boko Haram terrorists in the north east,hundreds of the terrorists fleeing from the onslaught have met their waterloo in Gombi town, Gombi Local Government Area of Adamawa State Monday evening.

The terrorists according to a statement signed by Colonel Sani Usman, Acting Director of Army Public Relations, “were engaged by troops of 23 Brigade Nigerian Army in a gun battle that led to killing of quite a number of them, destruction and recovery of vehicles, motorcycles, various calibre of weapons and ammunitions”.

“These include 4 Hilux vehicles, 3 Anti-Aircraft guns and one .50 inch Browning Machine Gun. Others include 5,000 rounds of 12.7 millimetre ammunitions, 2 boxes of .50 inch ammunitions, 1,000 rounds of Light Machine Gun ammunitions and one Rocket Propelled Grenade 7 tube, as well as one General Purpose Machine Gun”.[/b]

“Unfortunately, one soldier was wounded in the encounter and he is responding to treatment”.

“Troops are mopping up the area to prevent further incursions by the terrorists” he added.

SA mercenaries never fail. They are very experienced in strategies and planning both tactical and in combat. Nigeria should really pay those people a lot of money.

EVarn:
*We seized the lake chad islands from chad in the '80s,we invaded chad and nearly captured their capital before france mobilized aid for then.
*We routed AQUIM in mali,we laid a crippling seige against trained arab militias and drove them out of northern mali.
*We single handedly destroyed laurent gbagbo's army and ukrainian mercenaries in the titanic battles of seirra leone.
I COULD GO ON,BUT WE ALL KNOW THESE THINGS.

Your list of battles make me tired. Those were not even war but small outings. Nigeria in Mali fled and left France alone. Generally, Nigeria is still inexperienced that's why they are struggling to defeat Boko Haram alone at home. Just a bunch of inexperienced losers.

lezz:
Southafrica has also called for a defense pact with Nigeria.

Get real, Nigeria's military records still read 5 stars.
You are here taking about SA mercenaries who are retired apartheid, anglo-dutch freelancers.

SANDF is till looking for a credible war victory.

Nigeria has never won any war in history other than winning and defeating itself in Biafra and fighting rebels with other forces. Fact.

rka1:
Now I know you are d#umb. I will not do a search for you. Google F-7 and BH and see for yourself, you amatuer.

SA mercenaries are happily giving training to your pilots chief.

rka1:
I thought it was all done by South African mercs?

Anyway, nearly 40 towns/communities recovered by Nigerian forces while members of MNJTF move into border towns from the north as they are supposed to do. Did you notice that they again claimed to liberate Dikwa and another town for the second time after claiming they had done so in the past?

Anyway, as usual, do your research. The operation was under instruction from the Nigerian military while SANDF are busy posing for photos.

Nah!! SA mercenaries are fighting on the colours of Nigeria.

Most towns are recovered by Chad, dummy.

Chad and Niger successfully recovered more towns from BH. Nigerian troops falsely claim victory for the job that was done by others.

Continue to glory hunt. I would really like to know what SA mercs are flying Alpha Jets, F-7s. They must be unique pilots who can just step into any fighter aircraft without a conversion course
Little do you know that there are instructors in theatre because of new equipment being used, olodo.

Of course, they are very unique, that's why they are currently giving training to your poorly trained pilots.

F7s are just a second generation machines with an outdated weapon system. Any pilot who has flown 3rd to 4th generation fighters will fly your F7s and Alpha jets with ease. However, to be specific your F7s have been grounded and they are currently not playing any major role in air offensive since they cannot launch PGMs, dymmy. Your Alpha jets are the ones being currently used to lauch aerial attacks.

Tanzania commands and controls South African military in Congo.

American special forces are helping SANDF fight Rhino poachers in your own homeland.

You always get Foreign help
.

No SA military is under the control of Tanzanian general in DRC. The Tanzanian general is only heading the mission because of his fluency in Swahili, the language that is widely spoken in eastern DRC including M23 rebels. He is going to be an important assert when he has to negotiate with rebels to surrender weapons in the language that they best understand.

The American former special forces were in SA for a tour concerning a TV game show. They were here and they left. They never came into contact with SANDF other than game rangers in a private game reserve.

SANDF does not need foreign help.

rka1:
Quit your lying narrative about mercs. Nobody but Nigerian Air Force personnel plus eastern European instructors are inolved with hellics and nobody else for fighter aircrafts. ISR assets may have additional personnel from other countries assisting with new systems.

Nope, young boy, SA mercenaries have the situation under control in Nigeria as confirmed everywhere by SA media. The question is: why is your military keeping mum despite the media claims. Something smelling fishy.

agaugust:
Egypt asked for COLLABORATION with Nigerian military not cooperation, a collabo is a joint venture, joint force.

He said Nigeria and AU, meaning....

Nigeria alone = African Union capacity combined.

Nigeria is more capable than any single AU country, you need to add up every other African country to equal Nigeria's military capacity in COIN war.

I am sure you guys are praying and fasting that one day Egypt will say South Africa and AU....but you know that won't ever happen in this generation
.

SA alone can demolish that Nigeria which is said to be equal to the task of AU.

agaugust:
Last time SANDF paratroopers fought a bunch of rag tag rebels, Seleka was champion over you
.

Yet you don't want to touch the fact that Seleka lost many of their fighters on their own turf facing a foreign military situated hundreds of miles away. As for me I see paratroopers as victorious because they slaughtered Seleka on their own turf until they begged for cease fire.

agaugust:
First, you guys need to know that South African mercenaries are NOT your national army, they are not recognized in this forum because the topic is not about private fighters who work for private companies, we are on a thread for who has the strongest military in Africa, national armies.

Anyway, Captain Valentine Strasser the then head of state for Sierra Leone cancelled the contract he gave to Executive Outcomes company that used South African mercenaries, he stopped paying them with diamonds and dollars when Nigerian military arrived to save Sierra Leone free of charge without demanding any reward.....that is what it takes to lead Africa....sacrifice, not photography of military equipment posted on internet
.

Well, I just only wanted to dismiss all your lies that they were long gone when poorly trained Nigerian troops arrived. They were still in Sierra Leone flying your jets and gunships the same way they are doing today.

agaugust:
Nigeria fought the biggest conventional war in Africa's modern history...Biafra war....half a million soldiers on both sides plus the only large scale amphibious assault in African history that many NATO countries have never even attempted before
.

Biafra was just a freaking civilian war that displaced some of my relations and was not conventional other than Nigerians butchering each other with pangas. The only modern and conventional war on Africa's soil was Bush war, period.

agaugust:
Tanzania commands and controls South African military in Congo.

American special forces are helping SANDF fight Rhino poachers in your own homeland.

SA general can never work for AU and will merely see that as a demotion. SA generals earn far more than AU generals. How will the US general ever apply for a post in UN when they earn far more than that?

agaugust:
South African mercenaries abandoned Sierra Leone about a year after Nigerian troops arrived. Nigerian military fought the war to the end after Southies vanished away. Go read West African war history

That's a lie, SA mercenaries fought to the end flying your sorties, dummy.

FighterPilot:
100% I agree, those are just mere jumpers by the kind of parachute the use. It was merely made for safe landing and not to be maneuvered in the air to land where the operator want. They are not free fall operators like SANDF paratroopers. Nigeria has no single free fall operator and they are still babies as far as parachuting is concerned.

Bwahahahahahahahaha… do you mean Nigerian soldiers cannot do free fall jump? Whatever, they should come to SA to receive training. Somewhere in 2010 SA held an international advanced military free fall course, falling from 10 000 ft above the ground. Nigerian troops will die.

Think........ I expect you to think saengine.

The report claims that Abuja and Pretoria have an understanding on this matter, so there should be no qualms on this matter.

Yet the same paper goes on to say that the minister is un aware of a situation under her jurisdiction which Abuja and Pretoria supposedly have an agreement on. .......... how?


This paper also claims Americans who where kicked out months ago are involved in the so called offensive. Does this report sincerely make any sense to you?




Fact is, you south-africans cooked up a story to feel relevant, and the south-african government runs a banana regime.

I can see that you are badly hurt by the news. Rather, wait and see.
