NTSA:Forgot to mention. You can see BOTH Negev and Minimi 5.56 SAWs while the former is simply a copy of the latter! Also MG 3s, famed for reliability with a RoF of 1200 RPM, highest of any GPMG are also used. I heard last yr Kenyatta's Ruiru facility will this year upgrade to 7.62s and may drop the 5.56 mm which looks more likely after the US has finally dropped the M4. Imo the army will standardise with either licence built or indig clean sheet rifles from Ruiru. |

Buschlaid:Fyi, THE most incapable combat formation in these parts are the Congolese! Training, recruitment, doctrine, discipline and combat effectiveness are either -30 or zero. Most observers consider them sobels, soldier/rebels. An uncle told me in the 90s you could COUNT with less than 3 fingers capable officers of Colonel and above. The same situation prevails at all levels from NCO to field officer rank to date. It's a cultural thing: Congolese love life too much to be good in soldiering. It's NOT simply backwardness that enables tiny Rwanda to annex half the nation.

DaddyGoo:The land of South Africa belongs to the black people... every other thing in that country belongs to the White folks therein. So technically it is still white people supplying arms to white people. #ifa |

kabe1:Taken into service today, SAS King Sekhukhune I is the first of three MMIPVs to be built for the SAN by Damen Shipyards Cape Town (DSCT), fulfilling a contract awarded by Armscor as Project Biro. All three MMIPVs are DSCT Stan Patrol 6211 design platforms. They are 62m long, have a maximum speed of 26 knots, a range of 4 000 nautical miles and a crew of up to 62. The vessels will each carry a 9 m and a 7 m RHIB (rigid hull inflatable boat) for boarding operations. The MMIPVs are, according to DSCT, tailored to SAN requirements and feature the Damen Sea Axe Bow – a vertical hull form reducing slamming for safe, comfortable operations in rough seas. The new addition to the SAN fleet and the pair to follow are the first Sea Axe vessels to be acquired for South African waters. |

kikuyu1:The plan was to acquire Scheibel Camcopter S-100 for the frigates. They were tested, but funding saw the acquisition postponed. Turbulent head and crosswinds beyond 25 knots, limited deck size as well as lack of NATO landing grid represented exceptional challenges during the trials. The unmanned helicopter effortlessly conducted automatic takeoffs and landings and all other required maneuvers, thanks to its integrated GPS-independent positioning system, enabling pinpoint precision at a high dynamic range.Not sure of the dimensions of the deck of the MMIPV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9mSJRGcuPY |

NTSA:When you see a weapon in widespread use the operators know! Everyone from Germans,Mexicans, Turks, Pakistanis, Portuguese and others used it along with its excellent derivatives, the LMGs and SMGs. IIRC, Norway were the last 1st worlders to give up their own version less than a decade ago . In A' stan it was called the Norwegian hand cannon.

Tinfoil:The million dollar question would be; why is a tank wondering in the woods on it's own?. Shouldn't motorised infantry accompany heavy armour? I mean that's standard global procedure. |
