patches689:Show us proof that SAAF Lynx has all those hardware you listed, apart from radar and FLIR. Your $ 40 million was purchased stripped of every lethal and high performance hardware, you were ripped off by your British masters again. Your Lynx is not even armed with any weapon, it is a mere coast guard helicopter for patrol/rescue. Finished ! . |

agaugust:1. War against Boko Haram is not over. Defeating rag tag militia in your own country, after suffering massive defeats is not something worth bragging over anyway 2. Prove it 3. Fact is, majority of your fleet is non operational. You dont have over 400 vessles. Stop wasting my time, stop wasting my time little boy! |

agaugust:So the fact that it is a targetting platform for the Valour Class means nothing? LOL Ever heard the naval saying "whoever radiates first dies first"? Think about what that means and think about how the Lynx fits into this And I think the .50 ma'deuce counts as a weapon, dipshit |

patches689:Nigeria has weaponized armed AW 109 helicopter. SAAF has basic rescue Lynx. Show us proof that your SAAF Lynx has all the hardware you listed apart from radar and FLIR. There is NO machine gun on your Lynx, it is said to be an option weapon which you DO NOT have. Show me a SAAF Lynx armed with .50 cal machine gun , show me now ! . |

iblawi:Yes,I remember the story,of course,Cameroon eventually repartraited those terrorists back to France and the case died down just like that.No AU and UN investigation!,No Nigerian diplomatic intervention!. PMB should demand a public apology from France for sponsoring Biafra and stoking civil war in the 1960's.Tough diplomatic decisions have to be made,everybody cannot be our friend. I believe that Nigeria and France can cooperate in mutual bilateral trade and investment without necessarily keeping up a mirage of warmth.Just like Germany and Russia. |

agaugust:1. No, your AW is not weaponised 2. The list of equipment I provided shows it is not a basic resuce lynx. Stop wasting my time. 3. I have shown you proof, read the citations. Stop wasting my time. 4. Picture clearly shows our lynx armed with FN's .50 Cal M3M. For more pictures consult Henry120's thread Stop wasting my time with childish arguments

agaugust:You tell me patches689:I see you still havent figured out the role of the lynx in relation to the saying "whoever radiates first dies first" |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 5:17pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
DictatorZAR:What makes Nigerian AW 109 a rust bucket ? They are brand new helicopters we purchased around year 2003. Are you drunk? |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by iblawi(m): 5:18pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
patches689:Am sure you want to start another argument that will prove you a liar again. No site stated all this jargon for SAN Lynx. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 5:20pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
iblawi:Read the citations Stop wasting my time with this childishness |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 5:22pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
DictatorZAR:Nigeria saves Angola and protects Ghana down to your SADC region when they are attacked by pirates in deep ocean, they call our navy not South Africa. Your SAAF Lynx is far far inferior to NAF ATR-42 mighty Surveyor. Both cost the same basic price before any upgrade or extra hardware ! Super Lynx SAAF $ 40 million ATR-42 Surveyor NAF $ 40 million You see how foolish the whole nation of South Africa is? Britain ripped you off again with those over-priced Lynx patrol/rescue helicopters . |

agaugust:hahaha lol abeg help me tell them again so that they will know how foolish they are. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 5:30pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
agaugust:1. You didnt save angola. You arrested them in your waters. 2. Lol, brining up the Surveyor? Wow, you must be desperate! Anyway, Apples and Oranges 3. Still sticking with the Lynx SAR argument? even in the face of all this evidence? Pathetic |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by iblawi(m): 5:30pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
ATR vs incomplete lynx

| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 5:32pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
patches689:NAF has weaponized our AW 109. Oh I see, your Lynx carries only a small machine gun.....Nigerian Gazelle, Eurocopter, AW 109, Super Puma, all carry Machine Guns too ! Our AW 109 costs $10 million, your $40 million Lynx carries the same one machine gun like our Gazelle that costs $ 2 million ![]() You South Africans must be foolish spenders of money ![]()

[size=15pt]Irony: a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result. Nigerians try to paint the Lynx as an SAR platform... turns out it isnt Nigerians forget that their only operational Maritime helo is LITERALLY only capable of SAR This is hilarious[/size] |

iblawi:Apples and Oranges |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 5:34pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
agaugust:1. Not a maritime platform 2. Do they have: - Embedded GPS/Inertial Navigation System - Telephonics Ocean-Eye radar - Sysdel Sea Raven Electronic Support Measures (ESM) suite (which is used for passive target detection and identification) - Denel Optronics Argos 410-M Electro Optic Sight System (with a forward-looking infra-red (FLIR) sensor and a day camera passive target identification and recording.) - Sysdel electronic warfare suite - a Saab Grintek Avitronics EW countermeasures system - infrared exhaust suppression system - electro-optical sighting system (EOSS) - Tellumat an Identification Friend or Foe system. Answer: NO Thats why yours costs $10 million and ours $33 million |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 5:35pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
patches689: Show us proof that SAAF Lynx has all those things you listed above apart from radar and FLIR. We know you got a stripped down Lynx at over-loaded cost price ![]() |

agaugust:No you have not Just stop dude, have some dignity, act like an adult for just once. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 5:47pm On Sep 15, 2015 |
patches689:Garbage !!! Your first source is a mere forum, not the real SAAF website, it's a private forum you dundeeee brain ![]() The second source is a the general source for a fully equipped Super Lynx, that is why it includes missiles and torpedoes which SAAF Lynx does NOT have. Show me your own SAAF Lynx hardware, show me you have ESM, EW, etc that you copy pasted from the general specs of well armed Super Lynx. Yours is a stripped down basic patrol/rescue version you thief ! . |

iblawi:Augubugu offspring why are you shifting goalposts now that you lost the Lynx vs A109 argument. I can do tat too Tell me how will your ATR attack a ship when we can do this. You see very easy to change goal posts ![]()

patches689:NAF has weaponized Agusta AW 109 helicopters. "Two trailers suspected to be carrying logistics support to members of the Boko Haram Terrorist (BHT) sect have been intercepted and destroyed by the Nigerian Air Force Agusta helicopter on armed reconnaissance mission around the Nigeria-Cameroon border, Air Commodore Dele Alonge Director of Public Relations & Information Nigerian Air Force said in a statement on Sunday." http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2015/08/24/nigerian-air-force-destroys-two-boko-haram-trucks/ . |

DictatorZAR:Umkhonto IR This can only go 15km max. Atr 42 don't need to get close. Mumu It seems you don't know about atr 42mp. Your Lynx can't shoot anything either. Stop making look like you have something special. Your search and rescue lynx. I didn't shift any goal post I only compare prices of the two. |
