ITS OFFICIAL-STEALTH IS NOW DEAD AS THE VINYL RECORD!!

The Italians have a short range civilian acoustic radar using mikes.

I know the Russkies had one over a decade ago-the stealth idea is now kaput!!

This wont be as effective as employing UHF radars. Sounds can still be controlled in vacuum that EM waves.

I don't quite get the question, are u talking about the Reva V model? If this is the case....

.....I know we got the Reva V in both Ambulance and Personnel carrier model. I'm sure you've seen the Reva Ambulace, @Jteku shared a photo of it early 2015 when they first arrived.



Here's another photo, showing the Reva V, Reva III in combat.

Okay , tnks you've answered my question.

Gulma UAV, 5 units operational



The UAV has an all-composite,low-drag design that ensures
optimum performance. Gulma offers the following features:

-Wing span of 4m


-MTOW of 35 kg

-Direct Line-of-sight range of 100 km

- Up to 6 h endurance

-Up to 12 000 ft service ceiling


-Up to 5 kg day and night mission payload (fuel excluded)
Piloted and autonomous flight capability

-The system comprises:

-Two Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), one Ground Control Station (GCS).

I feel so proud about this. What do you think about employing stealth technology on our UAV?

That's not a requirement. We should rather begin to design UAVs with much larger endurance, range and load carry capacity. This should be our main priority. Stealth isn't a requirement for UAVs. They are already so small that there RCS is so low and barely noticeable. Most UAVs like the Gulma would appear as a small bird on Radar.


Our next steps should be,

- A proper MALE UAV like the Yahbon Flash 20, Rustom II or Aerostar.


- 5 ships of at-least 51 meters length, similar to the Cyclone class patrol boat.

@Gottfried you better come back with some awesome pics or dont come back to this thread at all

Are there any native portuguese speakers in Namibia? I usually wonder why the close relationship?


Cool AK-103s the Marines are carrying.

actually it's not a question I want to ask, but to discuss some things.

Obviously it's not a requirement. However I would love to ask if the Nigerian defence has stealth technology capability?

yea when we are done we should also build space shuttles armed with ATGMs

lol. It's possible sha. We have got what it takes.

No, we do not. We don't even have a defence Industry yet, a couple guys building military equipment don't qualify.

Haha sorry bro,but there was really no point in my trying to take shots from my phone
I already spoke to the photographer from Sate house and my guy at NBC
I'll provide the thread with visuals soon to make up for it

No probs,did we buy extra WZ523's or these 1's are from the Army?

ViceAdmiral:

Yeah those are army APC's
The marines don't have any Armoured vehicles of their own at the moment...but the 8x8 aPC that's being developed will have amphibious capabilities...so maybe that will be for them

DICON is federal government. Proforce is private.


DICON runs J.V with Poly-technologies(Ammo), Marom-Dolphin(Bullet-proof vests and kits), Proforce(Vehicles) and a couple other companies. That's how they operate.

There's an 8X8 aPC they're working on with the Brazilians...I personally think it's the Iveco Guarani...But we won't be sure for a while
