craziebone:how? we get aerotropolis? |

craziebone:We all copy from somewhere to better our standards both SA and Nigeria Your airports can't even compare with Dar es Salaam or Nairobi. |

snydergp1st:I like your new style. More matured, more reasonable... Unlike the immature hot-head you used to be. New moniker, new life i guess. |

Israels IAI develops Dual Band radar that can track both long rang ballistic missiles and satellites. I guess we know now who rules on the tech side in the middle east. http://www.defensenews.com/story/defense/2015/11/10/israel-aerospace-industries-unveils-dual-band-radar-system/75519378/ |

lionel4power:google Stella Odua and aerotropolis. Remember the last time Obama was in Africa and shunned Nigeria instead going to Senegal, SA and Tanzania? Well, a day after his arival in Africa, Jonathan jetted off to China and he secured a 3bn dollar low interest loan for more infrastructures in Nigeria. One of them was to build an Aerotropolis in our major airports. The work is currently on-going in our major airports. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 12:37pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
snydergp1st:i know our airports, particularly Murtala Muhammed which is our largest, are poor FOR A COUNTRY LIKE NIGERIA, but with the aerotropolis being built, the problem is being fixed. The work is very much on the way. We are on the way to put our airports on the global map |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by overhypedsteve(m): 2:41pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
craziebone:Oga which Aerotropolis are they building? The Airport are being remodelled. And apart from that South Africa have always played host to International conferences on Aerotropolis so they didn't copy us so far so good we have shown that we have nothing worth copying in any sector apart from Nafdac,Inec and a few sector that have selflessly served the Nigerian people overtime. I do hope the present administration changes that. |

Patchesagain:Israel too is depending on the same Patriot missile like Egypt does. The patriot intercepted 41 out of 42 Scud missiles in Gulf war, and today it is intercepting ballistic missile in Saudi Arabia 2015 http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/06/06/412451669/saudis-shoot-down-scud-missile-fired-by-houthi-rebels-in-yemen Only a fool will launch nuclear missile on a next door neighbour that has Patriot anti-ballistic missile defences. Israel fires nuclear missile, Egyptian anti-missile system intercepts it at the border, missile exploded in the air, half of radiation fallout is on top of Israel, half on Egypt, both countries dies from the same nuclear weapon. You are a mere internet military enthusiast, that is why you don't know the tactical operation of weapons and their use in real life combat, Iwill continue to educate you free of charge my student. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 3:29pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
snydergp1st:Having better technology does not mean better combat firepower, South Africa has better defence industry technology than Algeria, yet if you go to war with Algeria, they will wipe out the entire South African nation. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by iblawi(m): 3:33pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
agaugust:That's true. It's a FACT |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Patchesagain: 4:35pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
agaugust:Lol? You lecture me about tactical operation of weapons? Yet you are not even referring to the correct weapons? You think the jews will be firing ancient low altitude Scud missiles at Egypt?? "The range of the Jericho 3 also provides an extremely high impact speed for nearby targets, enabling it to avoid any Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) defenses that may develop in the immediate region." http://missilethreat.com/missiles/jericho-123/#fnref-3809-1 And, a Nuke on Cairo will result in no fallout on Isreal http://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/

agaugust:If we mobilized for war we could raise a bigger army They only manage 110 000 in their army WITH CONSCRIPTION... we had 500 000 when we had conscription, and that was only when we recruited whites. You have made a ridiculous comparison But you are right, Egypt had better tech all 3 times they fought Isreal... they still lost all 3 times ![]() |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by agaugust: 5:03pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
Patchesagain:Propaganda and assumptions. Patriot missile is built to defeat ALL TYPES of ballistic missiles. Fact !!! " Patriot is a long-range, all-altitude, all-weather air defence system to counter tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles http://www.army-technology.com/projects/patriot/ " Range of the Jericho is irrelevant, both countries are next door to each other. Egypt has radars that cover the whole of Israeli airspace, a ballistic missile launch will be detected early. Israel's land mass has a very narrow territorial width and Egyptian missiles can stop the Jericho missile right on top of Israeli territory or at the border line. Israeli land is so small and narrow, the distance from Gaza strip to Jerusalem is just about 30 km.....if Egypt intercepts the Jericho over Israel, it will explode on the head of the Israelis ! You don't know shiiit about practical use of weapons, you just google copy and paste data from free internet, you don't know battle space management and realities. Nuclear fallout can spread over 100 km to 500 km distance you suicidal fool ! http://www.ready.gov/nuclear-blast . |

Patchesagain:Show proof that Algerian army is made up of conscripts. They have same policy of service as Israel, so Israeli army is a conscript army? The service rule means Algeria and Israel have a large pool of combat trained youths to mobilize in war, that gives Algeria a big advantage over South Africa that is full of idle, jobless, illiterate, dormant, lazy youths of a wasted generation. Show me proof that Algerian army is full of conscripts like nobody joins army voluntarily, show proof. Algeria has a twice bigger standing army and a bigger population, plus more wealth and superior weapons. South Africa will just mobilize dull brain Zulus for superior Algerian tanks, artillery, bombs, and missiles to eat for breakfast. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 6:49pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
agaugust:This makes sense how? So your telling me the country with the most advanced weapons and also by far the most sustainable defence force will lose? And let's not forget, that Country your talking about has been fighting major wars around the world when Algeria was nothing more than a french colony. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by snydergp1st(m): 6:58pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
craziebone:Hope so because that would be good for inter african travel and trade integration as a hole. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by iblawi(m): 7:09pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
jln115:Pls what country have the most advanced weapons? You forgot to mention the name. Secondly, What do you mean by most sustainable defence force? |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 7:16pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
agaugust:1. Yes!! Israel is a conscript army, nobody debated this. 2. Algeria has a considerably smaller population than South Africa you retaaard. 3. Did you say Algeria has more wealth than South Africa? We are the most powerful economy on the continent, our GDP ppp is more than double that of Algeria, we also have a considerably higher revenue than Algeria ect ect 4. South Africa was able to raise a standing army of 500000 during war time....with only whites!! 5.We produce much more advanced weapons as you yourself said, and thus have a much more sustainably defence force. P.S I'm not saying we have a more powerful defence force than Algeria currently, but come war time we are the only country in Africa that has proved it self during prolonged conventional warfare against some of the world's strongest powers and came out tops every time, we are still the only county in Africa that has proved that we are able to project a considerable force thousands of kilometers from home and sustain such a force. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by Nobody: 7:18pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
iblawi:Dude go ask agubugu, he said it was South Africa. And by sustainable I mean sustainable, as we don't nearly rely as much on foreign suppliers for weapon systems and maintenance as Algeria. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by snydergp1st(m): 7:21pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
agaugust:No the iron dome system is by far better then the patriot and it is able to intercept targets much stealthier and at shorter ranges. Scud missiles are not modern or fast. Most older SAM systems are capable of detecting them and destroying them. If the Patriots were so good why are Turkey removing them on there soil in the midst of a air campaign by Bashir and Russian AF. There are a range of missiles out there that are super and hyper sonic and has effective counter measures against Patriot systems today, this is the very reason why the EAGIS system today plays a bigger anti ballistic missile role. Mr Analyst tell me how will two Patriot batteries defend against something like the Iskandar if 30 missiles are launched at a single target eg central command posts or power stations. |

jln115:@agaugust is it true? Did you say it was South Africa? |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by snydergp1st(m): 7:38pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
agaugust:How will they wipe us out. The fact that you still argue like a teenager after all these years is very funny. You seem to lack any logic and comment just because it suits your childish argumentative agenda at times. Algeria don't have the military means to project force 5500km away nor the financial muscle to sustain such an attack, this also applies for South Africa. Now Nigeria itself has less platforms then both Algeria and South Africa so I say its you who should fair Algeria more because you are in their immediate range and just 5 of there SU-30MK's can wipe out your entire poor air defense network in just one 10hours. One FREMM will render your entire coast guard Navy useless, so I guess you should mind your words. |

agaugust:You continue with insults yet you talk so much nonsense without any logic. Its always Zulu this and that with you nigerians whenever you can't argue with facts. The rest of your arguments are not worth responding to. |

jln115:I NEVER said that, you liar ! |

iblawi:No, I never said so, he is a liar of a Southie |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by snydergp1st(m): 8:14pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
iblawi:You do realize SA upgraded many of there weapons platforms and they use our very own Umkhonto SAM on there warships. The Gripens are more then capable of facing Algerian Su-30's May I remind you Nigeria is even in a worse position then SA. |
