South Africa has over 100 local defence companies and out of them not even ten have foreign ownership. Even foreign defence firms only bought stakes in those companies which existed long before such partnership could take place. FACT.

You have NOT produced jet fighter rocket pod, we have done it.

Case Closed, we do what you have not achieved.

That is easy, if South Africans can have interests in it they will produce it just in one day.

Straw man argument.


"This is what you're holding on to...... This?"


I'm sure there probably is a Nigerian designed version already installed. Just a complimentary piece of equipment.
There's probably a South African designed Stealth Fighter in service with SAAF!

"seriously degrades the systems effectiveness" - not a priority peice of equipment grin grin grin

I dont give a sh1t about you guessing about things henry, they found you dont have it, it makes the radar allmost worthless, no evidence that the flaw has been remedied.

Pathetic, truly pathetic.

Only 7 operational air-assets
Civilian grade radar
40 year old ammunition

Shamefull really.

Maybe if you were like South Africans, and werent blinded by arrogance your military would receive the scrutiny ours does and these things would not happen grin grin

Holding on to a defeated argument doesn't make it valid. The IFF system is a complimentary system considering the Air Force already has existing infrastructure with which to identify aircrafts and a much wider TRACON to rely on.




You are basing your entire argument on a false premise........ Very unfortunate really.

The Russians use old dumb bombs in Syria

The Americans also use old dumb bombs in a JDAM kit.

The argument that DICON supplied old bombs is irrelevant, old ammunitions have to be used.

Your argument on aircrafts has been totally destroyed, it holds no water. With you and your source making contradictory claims.



The SANDF is an incompetent, poorly trained and poorly equipped force with very little battle experience and no large scale battle experience at all. This doesn't change.

[size=13pt]

[s]80% of South African domestic defence industry is your European white masters' companies branches opened in South Africa.

The technology you are boasting about is NOT yours ! Europe is sending all these technology directly to their factories branches in South Africa.

BAE is British, Reinmetall is German, SAAB is Swedish, THALES is French, Mectron is Brazillian.

The only thing you make alone is MRAP that you copied from Zimbabwe in the 1970s.

When South Africa tries to do high tech military products on it's own it fumbles and wobbles in failure....

DENEL could NOT build A-Darter missile until Brazil gave you the technology.

LinkZA data link failed to work as a real TDL because European companies refused to transfer the technology to South Africa.

Even your ordinary R-4 Rifle is a licenced copy of Israeli technology Galil rifle.

South African defence industry is 80% made by Europe on your land. Simple.

Show us what military technology that your Zulu-Bantu-Cape Colony dullards have created since Mandela took over power in 1994....Black Nigerian military officers have created weapons without any foreign help....show us Zulus brain work in your defence industry[/s]

An empty meaningless post, posted by a man whom is deeply jealous of what we have done.

4. Worlds most advanced HMD
5. World leading persicopes
6. World class ASM
7. Extremely popular ATGM
8. Domestic Data-link
9. Domestic SAM
10. World Class wheeled AFV
11. Worlds first wheeled IFV
12. One of the most advanced MBT's in SSA
13. World Class Glide Bombs

Yet, you say that we cannot weld some tubes together?

5. What contradictory claims?

The NAF has only 7 operational platforms. The NN only has 50% of its fleet operational, sailors who cannot swim, no training in full-spectrum warfare and a collection of 40-60 year old second hand ships. Your army has a hodg-podge of mismatched equipment all of which is obsolete, your men are pathetically trained, have to buy their own medicle equipment, only get issued 60 rounds of ammunition and drive around the warzone in dump-trucks and Toyota pickups.

Your military is beyond a joke.

1. Irrelevant argument


2. Yet the Syrian regime backed by 4 + months of Russian airstrikes has gained more territory than 2000 bombs dropped on kobani or the 20+ months of American led coalition airstrikes in Syria.

It's not even a contest, even a blind person can see who's more accurate


3. 40 year old bombs still.


4. The 40 year old ammos completed what is one of the world's fastest military operations.


5. I'm not going to repeat myself, go read up on the debate.



NAF has over 100 aircrafts operational

50% of a fleet of 500 vessels still leaves the Navy with 250 vessels. The Navy has also added 100 vessels from local and foreign suppliers

Military equipment, the Nigerian military has more amoured vehicles than the SANDF. Each soldier carriers 6 MAGs, and we have the best military hospitals in SSA where both military and civilians receive free and/or cheap health-care.

Utility vehicles such as the Hilux and Ranger are an important part of warfare. SANDF special forces only had light skinned pick-up trucks in the CAR, your special forces in the DRC also drive around in light skins.
