Thanks but do not rest until you get us a full clear close up photo of the upgraded Vickers Eagle tank, and possible details of the upgrade. Ask the tank boys, they know.

Guys, does anyone notice the new roof mounted 'hardware' upgrade on NN AW 109 E Power helos?

There is no upgrade.

Nigerian army, police, and/or expert contigents in varying numbers remain in Dafur, Congo, and Mali till this moment. Stop peddling lies about Nigeria.

http://www.providingforpeacekeeping.org/2015/04/24/peacekeeping-contributor-profile-nigeria/

....and we don't jump for joy at rumours of deploying to a country that has a 100,000 man army, desperate to seek self-glory where our help is not needed

Nigeria pulled major combat formations out of all those nations.

Simple facts

The second image is simply magnificent. A potential front-runner for the top 10 images of 2016.

I really like the 1st one of the tank crew.

Two guys in their dirty uniforms, just chillin on their tank that has clearly "Seen some sh1t" in the AO. Really great pic.

You tell lies not facts.

Dafur-Sudan, Nigerian army is still there today, current number variations are unknown, some MT-LB APCs pulled out to fight Boko Haram, justified by shortage of equipment at home in a full scale war 1,000 times bigger than what was happening in Dafur.

Today Nigerian army and police are both, not one, both in Dafur Sudan, deployed under UNAMID to do the hard job others are running away from.

http://www.un.org/en/peacekeeping/missions/unamid/facts.shtml


Mali war ended, Nigeria received appreciation award from new democratic president of Mali that we and our allies installed by free/fair elections. Chad and France too have withdrawn many of their troops to reduce numbers in Mali.

http://www.aljazeera.com/news/africa/2013/04/201349235234509911.html

Today, both Nigerian army plus Nigerian police are fully deployed in Mali as part of the new UN peace/stabilization force MINUSMA, stop telling lies against Nigeria.

http://www.un.org/en/peacekeeping/missions/minusma/facts.shtml

Also, Nigerian policemen and military experts/advisory team remains deployed in Congo DRC today.

http://www.un.org/en/peacekeeping/missions/monusco/facts.shtml

Nigeria never deployed army combat fighting units to Congo DRC, so which combat formation did we pull out since we deployed only civilian policemen and military advisers/experts team who do not engage in combat? You tell lies a lot.

When you tell lies about Nigeria, your South African friends don't ask Henry to call you out. They keep quiet while you tell lies at random and they love it when it's Nigeria you are lying against

It's not a hardware upgrade sir. Apparently a hoist attachment to help the aircraft in the SAR role NN is known to operate it in. It was discussed on Beegs blog a few years ago if I remember well wink grin

Because you cherry picked two images to support your ludicrous "observations".

Your motives and intention were beyond transparent

Nope, my observations date back to images posted here for almost two years now, including those shown by andrewza. Do I need to post 100 of the old pics to ask a simple question? You have mind reading supernatural powers to see my motives? You be wizard?

Big lie, all my three sources are UN peacekeeping official websites showing year 2015 updated data on deployments. You will live and end life as a shameless liar. Nigeria never deployed combat force in Congo DRC in the first place. You serial liar.

Thanks bros, reason why I used quotation marks... 'hardware' upgrade. Was not sure if its new.

Never seen one on any Nigerian AW 109 pic. I see it on Swedish and American AW 109, I guessed they just upgraded the hardware for enhanced SAR. Pic shows naval man with gloves holding the line, its actually a 50 metre x 200 kg WINCH, pulls men/load out of sea or lets men/load down to sea. Thinking they adjusted the NN 08 serial number E power hardware, because the under fuselage inflatable water floats are now removed from that particular chopper. Compare the very same helicopter with serial number NN 08 below...

grin grin grin grin........ Very hilarious times, I remember @TIM was claiming it was a radar, despite overwhelming contrary opinion... "Omo stuck to his guns oh". Peccavi kept on and on telling him it was a hoist, but he wouldn't bulge.

Who knows, he probably was actually seeing a Radar, while we were seeing a hoist.

The pic here clearly shows the helicopter door open and a seaman/airman with white gloves pulling a rope out of the hardware, if TIM saw a different pic he could get misled, but this one here, you cannot be pulling rope out of radar now grin

Can it reach 120km. Possibly. If one didn't care about accuracy .

Brother, you now agree with Augustine that at extremely long ranges, artillery loses accuracy by wide misses off target. It's good we haven't shöt Augustine for telling the truth. Happy weekend bros wink

What is the current 2016 standard issue assault rifle of Ghanaian army INFANTRY? I mean regular ARMY infantry men not special forces.

Ghana uses a combination of M4 carbine and an M16A1 rifle with the usual AK.

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by patches689: 5:07am On Mar 13, 2016
Since certain forum members are questioning the effective range of arty at long range let me give out a free class.

- C.E.P is 0.1% of range in azimuth, 0.48% of range in range for the Gv6

- So at max range of 52km with VLAP from the GV6, that means the shells will land in a "box" that is 100m wide by 250m long.

- The "kill radius" for a 155mm round is 200m2

- Now, if you have a battery of 12 guns firing into that box, which is 2500m2, you will get 12 rounds landing in that box, covering a cumulative area of 2400m2 - per salvo

- That means you get 96% coverage of the target area... per salvo

- Now, remember that we are talking about 4 rounds per min per gun, or a total of 48 shells landing every 60 sec.

- Thats a cumulative coverage of 9600m2, falling into a box the size of 2500m2 equating to a coverage of 384%, per minute

- Yes - with the GV6 you can achieve 384% coverage of your target area, per minute, at max range

- Assuming you maintain this rate of fire for just 5min, that means you would have fired enough shells to cover an area of 48000m2 which equates to 1920% coverage of your 2500m2 target area.

You're welcome. cool

The Secretive Okapi

In mid-2001 it was stated that the South African Army had taken delivery of nine mobile electronic warfare systems as part of an extensive upgrade of its electronic warfare capability.

This new system was developed by Grintek Systems Technologies and installed in Okapi mine-protected vehicles.

Tough as nails

According to the manufacturer, two Russian TM-57 anti-tank landmines can be placed anywhere under the hull or three TM-57 anti-tank landmines can be placed under any wheel without any injury to the occupants.
