No details of the refit, so it's the change of engine @Andrewza posted here, the Valour frigates are so bad SAN replaced one engine in few years of purchase, Germany ripped off South Africa.

As to NN Stealth Catamaran, you posted manufacturers website summary of the boats with scanty info, I posted a full detailed manufacturers pdf specifications fact sheet with many pages of data you never knew and I PROVED IT'S STEALTH OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED my research beats your own....don't cry too much my white friend, you didn't perform poorly because of your skin colour, rather you failed because Shout Afrikaa breeds citizens with the lowest I.Q. in Africa. Sorry o !

You keep shouting about South Africans low iq, need i remind you that you said air is more dens at higher altitude!!

Looks like SAN might be getting as much as 8 OPVs and 6 IPVs

"Recent reports suggest that the final roll out will consist of eight OPVs and six IPVs, replacing the current three T-Craft IPVs and three remaining strike vessels. In a nod to modernisation efforts, the new OPVs are expected to carry Autonomous Underwater Vehicles."

Bwahahaha grin grin grin

Your above story is dated May 2012, almost 3 years old news, yet SAN does not know the name of OPV and IPV it will buy....because they will buy NOTHING....no money !

hahahaha..you call buhari a sitting duck?,even you yourself know that buhari can be more violent and sinister than vladimir putin.if the MEND ever rearm again,they would be crushed without amnesty,this isnt 2007,and we arent in the north.now that they{MEND} dont have grievances anymore,arming themselves for war will be construed as an act of terrorism,and they would be treated as such.

He can be more sinister, you claim, but he was toppled only after 20 months in power. How did his "sinisterism" work for him?

We all know he is very violent, that is how he rallied his supporters to murder in cold blood defenceless corpers serving their nation?

You have been unable to provide a shred of evidence to prove that buhari was and would be a capable leader not one.

Is this how you guys plan on supporting buhari, blind clueless, confused followership?

Race obsession?

You mean - I'm being race obsessed by saying that some white immigrants from Europe are ruling over y'all in your ancestral lands? undecided
who's ancestral land?

People confuse the fact that bantu people(Zulus, Xhosas, Pedis etc) came to what's today South Africa. After san and others.

All kingdoms including the boers' Republic of South Africa were conquered by the British.

It was after independence that NP introduced Apartheid, but that doesn't mean we must down play the role of the British in crafting the thing.

So, the next time you hear that the South African
Air Force does not have pilots for all their jets, or
that there is no flying activities taking place,
make sure your set the record straight. Every
South African can be proud to be represented
and protected by this disciplined, advanced, well
trained and formidable force.

That article proves nothing. It infact supports my argument that you lack Aviation fuel and Gripen Pilots.

8 Gripen pilots for 26 planes is absolutely nothing to be proud of. Neither is 14.

Uhm...why would SAN publisize exact details of it refit? Besides you said the Valours never even went in for a refit, and i just proved you wrong, As for your so called stealth, even in your source it states and i quote "The cutting edge exclusive design gives minimum radar footprint" As in the minimum radar footprint which the X-38 design allows, if you didnt know, the X-38 is offered as a civilian boat as well, and thus its not designed to be stealthy.

NNS Aradu refit details 2005 was fully published. It's no big deal when you refit Valour frigate and the radars, missiles, guns, all remain the same....all SAN did was refit a new engine as your South African navy man Andrew Coetze posted here last year when he said the Valour frigate engines are dying fast because of patrol duties, German crap was sold to ANC government for bribes as usual....overpriced crappy Valour frigates with inferior missiles and defective combat suite....F-7 jet will sink your frigate like iceberg sank the Titanic.

Stealth Catamarans, you are still my dull student, so I have to teach you again, your source talks about patrol catamaran version, my source talks about combat catamaran version, reason why missiles were not mentioned in your inferior source.

Learn to post what you are asked, e.g when asked to write about army IFV don't post police APC....get it? Dullard, get it? Say yes sir....come on say it...

Wrong, Venezuela suffers more sanctions than Nigeria, they are enemy to America and NATO has been punishing Venezuela with sanctions, reason why they now want to buy JF-17 Thunder for Venezuelan air force.

Nigeria's sanctions era ended 1999 and NNS Aradu was upgraded around 2005 by Nigeria and America joint venture.

Come to Lagos with a Valour frigate and kiss my Otomat missile, it out-ranges your 73km Exocet of which you have only 13 units while Nigeria has 40 Otomats.

hahahah fck you are stupd,you also said a golf ball would travel farther at sea level than at altitude.Thus implying that air is more dens at altitude.

But let me educate you once again:
As air rises, the pressure decreases. It is this lower pressure at higher altitudes that causes the temperature to be colder on top of a mountain than at sea level.
