I got you where I wanted, you fool

Bwahahahahaha… The source says. I quote


A report has it that about 10 pilots
from 2 Squadron at AFB Makhado

have been selected for further
training in Russia. This is a direct
outflow of a co-operation
agreement signed between the
defence ministers of the two
countries, Afrikaans weekly
Rapport said.
Four pilots are already undergoing
training in Cuba
and according to
SA National Defence Force Chief
General Solly Shoke, agreements have also been entered into with the United States and the United. Quote closed.

Where does it speak of nine?

Gripens are based in 2 squadron and hawks at 85 combat FS. How does it become 10 (ten) and another four. The situation in SAAF is not about money, it is about transformation particularly affirmative action. The ANC wants to offload high number of white pilots to correlate with that of black pilots and be representative of the population of SA. The author of that article is lost, since the pilots who resigned were instructors who happened to be white. Currently SAAF is building talent from the ground through transformation.

[size=13] Fighter you committed murder. Booooom!! you kicked him and there he goes, into a mango tree and died like his F7 pilot. Recently I also read on an SA soldier magazine that there is going to be radical transformation in the military particularly on those areas which were previously dominated by whites.

"Four of only the handful of jet fighter pilots in the SAAF have resigned leaving the force with three times as many Gripens as qualified pilots for them," the paper said.


This guy dull Sha.

The Gripens are three times the number of pilots.

No of Gripens= 26

26/3 = ?

Answer it yourself.

Yes, that applies to only qualified pilots, but they are still more than Nine. Hours is what qualifies pilots but there are many pilots in SAAF who can fly gripens despite having accumulated enough hours.

The number stand at ~9 (qualified)+10+4 + unknown

The pilots from your commercial SAA that were begged to join the force or the student pilots that still have a lot to learn.

We are saying the same thing, they still have a lot to learn and don't forget your qualified pilots still lack flying hours, so how will the young once add more flying hours?

Russia and Cuba have no Gripen jets or Gripen simulators so they CANNOT train a Gripen pilot to fly a Gripen.

This means SAAF Gripen pilots are so incompetent they have been sent back to learn the general basics of flying in Cuba and Russia.

Tiny Cuban island produces military men smarter brained than you South Africans cheesy

What Russia and Cuba are giving SAAF is basic flying course on Russian aircraft. It doesn't qualify anybody to fly Gripen.

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 12:44am On Oct 15, 2015
Henry120:
Actually 9 Gripen Pilots, not Gripen jets.

None of the pilots are combat qualified.

In actual reality, you have 0 GEN fighter jets.
Who says they are not combat qualified?

Fact remains: Nigeria = 0 4th Gen

Still doing worse than us!!

NO here are the facts!!

-- your countryman @fighterpilot said the hornet is used for delivering heavy firepower in the frontline... so you mean he's lying? no problem

-- yes superior firepower, what did the rebels possess? AKs and RPG, 23mms light arms.

-- did the rebels possess any MRLS?

-- YOU SOLDIERS RETREATED... MISSION FAILED!!!
Retreat does not define success or failure, we met ALL OBJECTIVES mission was a success

Do you have an inventory of Rebel weapons systems?

[s]All those propaganda liars did not do any military reconnaissance and intelligence gatherings in Bangui, that's why they manufacture figures from 2,000 to even more ridiculous 7,000 Seleka.

French army intelligence report from inside Bangui said between 1,000 to 1,500 Seleka rebels.

Best source from battlefield.

Lead-in and basic flight training do not require Gripen or have anything to do with Gripen

Is the Hawk a Gripen?
Is a P-7 a Gripen?
