agaugust:Read the WHOLE article you buffoon Then read this: http://taskandpurpose.com/air-force-paying-big-bonuses-pilots-forcing-others/ Then read this: http://www.af.mil.za/reserves/reserves.htm SAAF reaching out to SAA for more reserve pilots is nothing new (its been happening since the SAAF was invented in 1915) and is done by Airforces AROUND THE WORLD Stop trying to create controversy where there is none |

agaugust:That's exactly what he doesn't understand. The US air force is so large and spitting out so many very good pilots that the airlines PREFER to take from the air force than train their own. Here the SAAF is begging for pilots. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 5:00pm On Sep 13, 2015 |
dragon2:READ THE MOTHERFUCKKING ARTICLE The USAF is STRUGGLING to keep enough pilots BECAUSE THEY ARE BEING POACHED BY PRIVATE AIRLINES with the result that they are now short 600 fighter pilots and are trying to figure out better ways of keeping Commercial pilots in their reserves. I dont post citations for fun. Read them, understand them, comment accordingly |

agaugust:That's exactly what they always do. As soon as they notice they've been severely wrecked, they call in the photo posters to execute damage control tactics. It is the primary job of Thiza, he's now been joined by Saengine. |

Henry120:Severely wrecked how? You are the ones who cant prove your helo has what you claim ![]() |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by dragon2(m): 5:13pm On Sep 13, 2015 |
patches689:And I keep telling you when compared to the 12,920 pilots, 3,413 navigators and 1,443 air battle manager the US has it is insignificant to the defence of the country unlike your crises. They can always spit out more,which you are obviously struggling to do. Something Nigeria has no problems with. |

patches689:SAN and SAAF are dead. You don't need to prove anything. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 5:15pm On Sep 13, 2015 |
dragon2:Fact 1: USAF is short 600 fighter pilots Fact 2: USAF is struggling to make up these losses Fact 3: They are turning to the private sector for assistance with these matters Exactly as the SAAF is doing. And Nigeria is laregly unable to train its own pilots: As of 2009, most of its fleets were grounded and its training institutions were constrained with shortages of technical skills such as instructors and institutional facilities. http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/nigeria/air-force.htm Thats why you have white boys flying your hinds |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by dragon2(m): 5:21pm On Sep 13, 2015 |
patches689:Fact 2 is wrong, nowhere they said the are struggling to make up loses. 2009 is not 2015.The air force has been recruiting and training pilots in numbers since the return of democracy.The shortfall was as a result of the Military era fearful of its own. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 5:22pm On Sep 13, 2015 |
patches689:Dude stop, adding your own fraudulent language to the news report ! USAF is NOT struggling to keep enough pilots, the source does NOT say that, it says they have vacancy for 520 pilots, every military force has vacancy at some times, NOT like SAAF that has 90% vacancy permanently killing the air force of Mandela with chronic pilots shortage. USAF has 13,000 pilots , so stop comparing South African air force that is dead in the valley of dry bones BTWN....this is an African military thread, so what is America's business here ? It's Nigeria Vs South Africa . |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by iblawi(m): 5:23pm On Sep 13, 2015 |
patches689:Is this the best you can get? 2009- 2015 Just accept it that your airforce is dead. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by dragon2(m): 5:25pm On Sep 13, 2015 |
By the way if you think 5% Shortage is significant, I give up. That can't be compared to a South Africa struggling to maintain a Squadron of 2 helicopters. |

Nigeria obtained three "Lynx Mark 89" machines, which featured Gem 43-1 Mark 1020 engines with 847 kW (1,135 SHP) and digital engine fuel controls for "hot and high" performance; Bendix Primus 500 radar instead of Seaspray radar; and folding tailbooms. www.airvectors.net/avlynx_2.html

iblawi:Now that the anti-terrorism war is finally winding to a halt{though the military will have to undergo complete transformation and always be on alert from now on},it is time for the military to tackle the dissenting miscreants down south: all these radio biafra,IPOB and pirate/MEND ruffians should be completely neutralized before they cause any major disturbance. Amnesty is only a temporal money-draining measure,the only language that violence understands is force; a country like Nigeria shouldnt allow fragments of radical movements to sprawl dormant all over the nation,we have too many international rivals,overzealous "friends" and enemies who would use them as tools for destabilization to great effect. |

http://www.saairforce.co.za/the-airforce/aircraft/46/super-helicopter-300 Description: South Africa has ordered four Super Lynx 300 Mk 64 helicopters from AgustaWestland to operate from the SA Navy's Meko A200SAN class frigattes. The helicopters will provide a surface search capability in the anti-surface warfare roles, search and rescue (SAR), maritime patrol and utility duties. The type was selected in competition against the Eurocopter AS532 Cougar and the Russian Kamov Ka 28 Helix. A dark horse in the race, imagined or otherwise, was Kaman's SG-2G Seasprite, said to be cheaper but is equally effective. Super Lynx pipped them to the post and a deal to deliver the four from April 2007 was signed in Pretoria on August 14, 2003. According to the sales literature, the Super Lynx 300 was developed from the proven Super Lynx 100. It incorporates an all new integrated "glass" cockpit with a colour liquid crystal display system provides the crew with state-of-the-art technology increasing crew and mission effectiveness. The more powerful LHTEC CTS800-4N engines, jointly developed by Rolls-Royce and Honeywell, complemented with a Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) delivers low maintenance, enhanced performance and excellent economy with over 30% more power. The airframe is expected to last 10,000 hours. The helicopter's maximum all up weight (MAUW) is 5 330 kg and the cabin can accommodate up to 9 troops. The crew consists of a pilot and a tactical officer, while additional crew can be used to operate special role equipment as necessary. The role equipment incorporates a hoist to assist with SAR missions, a cargo hook for under-slung loads for ship-to-shore and ship-to-ship replenishment and a powerful searchlight. The Telephonics Ocean-Eye radar is the aircraft's primary mission sensor and allows the crew to detect and track small to large surface contacts at long ranges. Complementing the radar is the Sysdel Sea Raven Electronic Support Measures (ESM) suite, which is used for passive target detection and identification. A Denel Optronics Argos 410-M Electro Optic Sight System with a forward-looking infra-red (FLIR) sensor and a day camera is used for passive target identification and recording. Target tracks and video images can be transmitted to the parent ship in real time using the Datalink unit supplied by Thales Advanced Engineering. A 12,7 gun for self-protection will also form part of the current role equipment while growth options for surface and sub-surface warfare had been allowed for. This could include anti-ship missiles, depth charges, torpedoes, and rockets. South African components include a Sysdel electronic warfare suite, a Saab Grintek Avitronics EW countermeasures system, an Aerosud armoured flight crew seats as well as an infrared exhaust suppression system - by the same company. Denel is supplying an electro-optical sighting system (EOSS) and Tellumat an Identification Friend or Foe system. Thales Advanced Engineering was contracted to supply a datalink as a well as a "video grabber", a dedicated bit of hardware that allows the transfer of video material taken by the EOSS to be transmitted to the mothership for further action. Reutech Defence Industries and Saab Grintek Communications Systems provided the HF and V/UHF radios. The first two aircraft (193 and 194) arrived at Cape Town IAP on Friday 13 July 2007 aboard an An-124, while 191 and 192 arrived on 27 July 2007. |

This could include anti-ship missiles, depth charges, torpedoes, and rockets. Your lynx is just SAR with no ASW but growth options were allowed for. Too bad |
