Your budget was $6billion and that's. final. SA is only giving budget of $4.5 billion for now but has a separate accounts for military procurements. After the approval of a defence review, SA defence budget would be between $8-10 billion with much bigger strength.
Defence review state that the budget would increase systematically until its at 2.5% of the gdp Meaning in 5-10 years time it could be at something like $15-20 billion

You are getting no defence review. The Document is literally gathering dust in your military.

Nigeria's Defence spending for 2014 is 8 billion dollars.

I said they were interested, as it is a business opportunity, didnt say the SAN are going to buy it, that is way tenders are open to SA companies and foreign companies and thus the tender that best reflect SANs requirements will be chosen.

I thought you said you have an accounting degree!

Tenders are not in accounting line, it's the job of purchasing and supply or supply chain management professionals, its public procurement.

You don't even know what accountants do.

I thought you said your South African education is better than my Nigerian school.

Sure you would say here tomorrow that pilots pilot ships through the ocean and sailors sail aeroplanes through the air.

Nigerian SBS are special forces, most global SF operations are secret. Our SBS is currently involved in war with Boko Haram, no country will post special forces ops in newspapers except it directly involves civilians who have rights.

Who will judge Nigerian SBS ? The Americans? USA special forces just failed badly few days ago trying to rescue one of your South African citizens from Islamic terrorists, the South African got killed in exchange of fire or whatever, so who has the best special forces?

South African special forces have been largely asleep in the last 20 years, no major war.

Nigerian SF have 4 year current and constant combat experience 2014, we are superior to your dormant class, se fight while you make Hollywood photos for @THIZA

You are a REAL village id0it. If you really did do an accounting degree, you would have agreed that accounting is 1 of but many subjects you have to pass to qualify for an accounting degree(well in SA you have to), including Management Accounting , financial Accounting and business management to name 3, and all 3 especially Management accounting have alot to do about Purchasing and sales, but to be honest i dont expect you to understand.

And even in your Auditing subjects you have to at least know the basics of a companies tender processes.

if you had listened attentively in your physics class{if you ever attended any},you'd know that smaller wheels give more balance and stability to a bigger vehicle.it also allow such a vehicle to operate at an enhanced speed with minimum friction.

Dude S.A Special Forces are constantly active who do you think got the Lesotho P.M out before anyone knew what was going on *but ofcourse being the government that they are our leaders will deny it*

And all we had to do was send in our police special forces to intimidate and entire Countries Army an Army that is better equipped and trained then your B.H

I differ with you chief. smaller wheels are disadvantageous in keeping to the weight and climbing altitudes. They literally do not have power. Your mechanics is wrong. Wonder why fast cars drive with 17" tires upwards?

with a medium level of traction.yes,its true that the bigger the wheel the higher the traction,but in a military vehicle,traction at medium level is enough to operate it.military equippments are built in context of military requirement.proforce inc. isnt building fancy bentleys,its building a vehicle that can serve the military on a rough terrain

while weight and steep acceleration/decceleration should be considered in vehicle making,it isnt the tyre that really augment the weight,its the wheel springs.military vehicles are created to serve in specific military operation.for example:
a leclerc or abrams tank cannot be used in a swamp,marshy grassland or mangroove,'cos it will sink into the ground and get stuck during operation
on the other hand a scorpion light tank or vicker{which are way inferior and cheap},can be used in a swamp conveniently.
each of the above set of tanks were created for specific operations using specific designs.

Well it depends on the terrain, in the border war it was necessary for our vehicles to have tires/wheels that have sufficient traction in rough terrain and still be able to travel very long distances, thus bigger tires which will have more rubber to wear off than smaller tires and providing more traction than smaller tires, thats why 4x4 vehicles have bigger wheels/tires than normal cars.

Actually that was our SAPs Special task force(tekkies), but they go threw the same basic training as the SF but they specialize in URBAN combat and counter terrorism.

"The SAPS units included heavily armed members of the Special Task Force in combat fatigues. Convoys of SAPS vehicles could be seen cruising the streets of Maseru yesterday after escorting prime minister Tom Thabane safely back into the country."
