To our our brothers in the south, do you guys have more info about this. I mean are they still going to get deployed even when the people of DRC insist that the UN peacekeepers should leave.

It is with great pleasure that I post this;
" I don't think the NAF is interested in the AH 1vipers".
It is to me one of the best decisions made by the C.A.S not to proceed with the purchasing of the "missile-less" AH 1vipers for 1 billion dollars, that's what I would call RIPPING of the highest order. Luckily for us the T129 AH is battle proven and Turkiye will not have a problem in supplying them alongside AGMs. It is also ready to share the technology with Nigeria and I'm sure the deal is way more economical than the1 billion dollars viper AH. My only concern now is that a certain "leader in global war against terrorism" will be jealous and will not want to provide spare engine parts for future references

This is nothing new. These are troops training to replace the current battalion that's in the DRC. We rotate our troops deployed there every 12 months.
The MONUSCO mission in the DRC is composed of 2 components:
1) peace-keeping -- since 1999;
2) peace-enforcement --since 2013;

SADC - SA, Malawi, Tanzania - decided to embark on the 2nd mission in the form of the Force Intervention Brigade.

The current Congolese protests are directed at the 1st mission. This is not to say there are no problems with the 2nd.

Whether it's SADC or the EAC, they'd rather have mission 2, but lack of funding means accepting some aspect of mission 1. And of course DRC internal politics.

You forgot the rule:
Abandon all facts, ye who enter here!

Might have to amend the rule with a sub-clause:
"Some facts are unpalatable and hurt feelings when emanating from certain persons!

Perhaps your dealer is on vacation so you’ve resulted to meth…. I was specifically referring to the comment you made here about facts and hurt feelings, why the amnesia ?

Bitch, please!
What the _fuck is this?

jakeporeshenkoo:

Since you talk about facts. The supplementary military budget for 2021 alone was N698 billion ($1.6bn or more at the time), somehow when you suffered your mental breakdown some pages back because you can’t stand Nigeria’s military budget being larger than that of SA, everyone on the thread forgot to mention this.

Another supplementary budget for 2022 was also signed.

When people try to educate you sometimes STFU and listen, not everyday trolling.

Or this?

jakeporeshenkoo:

As usual.the only way you know how to respond is with misogynistic Bullshit, perhaps it’s SA culture who know… anyways if these stats give you the urge to hug transformer please go ahead, your bitching and moaning won’t change reality SA man.

Like I said, "screeching like a washer-woman with PMS results in the garbage you've just posted."
Actually, I owe washer-women - PMS or not - an apology. The crack you're smoking has you plumbing some new indescribable depths!

jakeporeshenkoo:

Lurker4Long:

I never rise to the Nigeria/SA bullshit, son! I, as an individual, am tackling you as an individual.
So, let's cut this short: show any evidence for these assertions about me:

1) "when you suffered your mental breakdown some pages back because you can’t stand Nigeria’s military budget being larger than that of SA"
2) "When people try to educate you sometimes STFU and listen, not everyday trolling"
3) "anyways if these stats give you the urge to hug transformer please go ahead, your bitching and moaning won’t change reality SA man"

Should be easy enough to go to the budget nonsense which starts on page 2558 and pull my posts which prove your case.
Put it up here and I'll apologise.

And I still wait for you to prove all those 3 statements you made.
Why don't you nut up motherf...er and admit you were talking absolute garbage. Might actually salvage some modicum of respect. Instead of this abject display of amoeba-like shiftiness.

His insult and mine cancelled each out. He could've just put it down to a mistake.

I'll see your 82mm and raise you a 120mm semi-guided, mobile protected platform. With good reason, one might have doubts about Denel Land Systems as a company, there's Paramount with even better, same system with a locating radar as sold to Singapore.

PIC 1-3: Denel Agrab 120mm Mortar System;

PIC 4: Paramount Belrex 120mm Mortar System.

Aware of this: they're basically the same 120 milly on different platforms.

The automated SRAMS Mk II is provided with an integrated fire control system (FCS) and can deploy in approximately 30 seconds – 80% faster than the towed mortar –[b] to execute fire missions at a sustained rate of fire of four rds/min for 20 minutes, or at maximum rate of 10 rds/min for three minutes. [/b]This also represents a 67% increase in rate of fire compared to the towed mortar, as well as a 50% decrease in manpower requirements.

https://militaryleak.com/2021/07/08/singapore-army-commissions-belrex-protected-combat-support-vehicles-mortar-variant/

Patches would've said;"that's real dakka!", which ofc is true but the radar would jack up the price considerably validating the Cornflower for African ops. Can you find anything on Belrex and Denel Agrab price?

Edit: they're excellent if they work as good as the makers say. Imo, they're ideally placed in the regimental support group NOT TRADITIONAL ARTY units. A couple, or 3 pieces with reload vehicles would go a long way beefing up inf unit organic firepower.

No sane person could reasonably infer from that any of the rubbish you falsely attribute to me. Seek help!

Let me add the per capita spend per soldier/sailor/flyguy gives a much better idea of actual expenditure than the whole unadjusted figure. Its therefore preferred when making country comparisons.

When comparing information between two groups, it can help to break things down on a per-person—or "per capita"—basis to ensure the comparisons are accurate. Per capita is often used to compare the economic indicators of countries with different population sizes.

How many think this is an accident? A HIMARS hit a prison holding some POWs in Lugansk. The dead were AZOV guys who'd just given interviews admitting much f'ery.

"A missile strike from the U.S.-made multiple launch rocket system (HIMARS) was carried out on a pre-trial detention center in the area of the settlement of Olenivka, where Ukrainian military prisoners of war, including fighters from the Azov battalion, are being held," the Russian defence ministry said.

Ofc the opposite side has a whole 'nother story. What do you think?

The American deal for AH-1Z Viper helicopters is done and dusted. We are getting the Vipers definitely.

As far as the ATAK from TAI goes, I'm still not sure, infact I'm not sure of any AH for Nigeria, until we see them in Nigeria.

As far as the ATAK goes, it is easy for the Americans to scuttle any sale to Nigeria, ask Pakistan.

The advantage the ATAK gives Nigeria is the allowance to use the helicopters anywhere we like without restrictions.
