Common sense is not common to these South Africans. Meanwhile boys closing in on Gworza.

#Victory Nigeria.

We've got the cockroaches completely surrounded. Pulka, madagali, warabe, kasa are completely locked off and trapping the enemy. I hope the camerounians and chadians can provide the necessary blocking in mora, cameroun.




The Sitrep for Gwoza would be very engaging.

RT @DefenceInfoNG: FLASH: Troops this morning captured Gwoza destroying the Headquarters of the Terrorists self styled Caliphate. #NeverAgain

RT @DefenceInfoNG: #Gwoza: Several terrorists died while many are captured. Mopping up of entire #Gwoza and her suburbs is ongoing. More details later.

What? is it common sens in Nigeria to believe any photo they see without thinking logically about it, so basically if i post a pic of anything you would believe it?

Look a Merkeva tank in the karoo, the SANDF now has Merkeva Tanks, because i posted a pic of one.

My report came from The Ministry of Defence, yours is just some opinion piece, from an opposition MP

Your ministry of Defence is telling lies to save face. At the time of the report, the SAAF only had 6 qualified Gripen Pilots.

That guy is a former submariner and the SANDF's loudest and staunchest supporter in your parliament.

Are you re,tarded?

His an opposition MP(DA), if he agreed with every thing the ruling Government says he would not be doing his job,thus he would discredit how the current SANDF is run at any opportunity and rightly so, even if it means speaking only half truths,its politics, something it seems you find difficult to grasp.

Not accurate.

You have 26 Gripens in service.
18 Aircrew (pilots and navigators)
In 2013 you only had 6 qualified Gripen pilots.
9 pilots and 9 navigators.

Show us proof!! Show us the link where you read the number 9 from. Why not just shut all of us up with a simple link?

Or you made up the number 9 which you have been peddling here for months. Where did you see the number 9?

You have a total 9 pilots and 9 navigators for a total of 18 air crew, for 26 planes.

You had 6 pilots in 2013.

Anyway you define BEST, the Su-30 still beats the Gripen.

Su-30 MKI radar maximum range is 400 km, armed with with Novator BVR missile super long range 400 km !

Gripen jet radar maximum range is 120 km, armed with AIM BVR missile much shorter range 105 km

The Su-30 kills the Gripen before the toy Gripen can even fire any missile !

Oh wow. Look at that...no link. Again! What a surprise.

In your head the only way to divide 18 is to say 9 + 9? Its completely above all comprehension to say 12 + 6 or 14 + 4? Your brain cant possibly fathom any other combination besides 9+9?

Mind you. Only 9 Gripen D (two seat which require navigators) were ordered. Why would they have a full complement of 9 navigators but not a full complement of pilots?

Oh look quoting wikipedia i see!
Find me a other credible source where it states that the PS-05/A mk4 radar range is 120km.

Any way the Gripen has a RCS which is so low that the SU-30s radar would only pick it up when it within a 90km range.

The only pilot shortage reported is for South African Gripen jets tongue tongue

"The sad facts of the Gripen system are as follows: 26 Gripen fighter jets were delivered; 10 or fewer are operational; 12 are in long-term storage; there are six qualified pilots; there are about 150 flying hours available to the entire squadron. "

NIGERIAN NAVAL "OFFICERS" CANT SWIM



"The Nigerian Navy has introduces compulsory swimming lessons for all officers following a realisation that most of its junior and senior officers are incapable of conducting waterborne operations because they cannot swim"

"Rear Admiral Anyankpele said the navy's training wing has realised that most naval officers do not know how to swim. He said as a result, the navy has decided to make it compulsory for all recruits and officers to undertake specialised swimming lessons suited for the military operating environment."

"This observation means that anyone who claims to be a sailor without being a swimmer or one who keeps afloat during emergency at sea is equivalent to someone attempting to commit suicide."
