No chief, the army clearly states it has a crew of 3 people.
Well, just curious what those two seats are for because, definitely, they are neither for foot rest nor for ammo storage.
Let's wait till we get a better picture and clearer usage of those things. Morning.

I see nothing wrong in acquiring spray planes by an air force,its their choice and maybe it suits their need.
would a southie accept any criticism on their weapons,and,sadly Nigerians forgot what kind of air force they have.Air tractor is a fine plane.

You do realize I said nothing about the Polaris being a better Patrol/Reconnaissance Vehicle right?? I simply referred to your comment about the IPV having better ground clearance?? Unless the path between you and your enemy is a technical 4x4 trail(which it won't be) the added advantage of the Polaris's off roading prowess don't count much?

At no point did i mention or say that the IPV has a better ground clearance than the Polaris. I said the ground clearance is standard, just like every other ATV.

How is this comment so difficult to understand?

It seems some of you have a reading deficiency. My comments to Odunayaw were primarily in response to ground clearance. He (Odunayaw)
complained that the ground clearance needed to be higher, in response i said the ground clearance is standard, using the Polaris to buttress my point. Going further to say even ours carry 2 guns.

Instead of responding to that, I see tons of ignorant comments with no correlation to my original comment on the matter or my follow-on.

Are you sure some of you guys are mentally okay?


This is what i want to know.

"Some of you cannot expect me to believe you're mentally okay".

LMFAO!! gringringrin

My 2 cents on the Nigerian Chenowth:

It's a good first start but it's far from being ready for prime time. In peace-time, the thing as it is wouldn't be released into the field. Hopefully feedback from users will result in an extensive overhaul.

Simple. Feedback would determine whether or not changes are to be made.

You don't seat at the back of your phone from wherever and make claims about changes if you haven't tested or used operationally or do not have the technical data or any data for that matter. you have no right whatsoever to make claims about changes on a vehicle you don't know.


That is what you South-Africans need to understand first, shall we?

Is there someone spreading a virus that generally changes one's mood... been scrolling through the last 3 days posts and everyone is eigther confrontational or offensively defencive ....
guys, we are all in this together , no one is going anywhere, this thread will be here long after we retire from it... lets learn to communicate better to avoid situation where anyone on one side issues a comment with hidden motives or resentment and the other side takes offense and insults back...huh?


tips on halving better conversations that actually result in better understanding of each other's decisions,situations,actions (or lack of..)


before you make your comment/conclusion about someone else....
1. When criticizing over a particular situation, give concrete examples so that people would really grasp what you want to convey.
2. Give recipients an opportunity to tell their side of the story. Remember that it has to be a two-way conversation.
3. Tell them what you expect to happen in the future and why. Doing so will help the other person understand your perspective and see the bigger picture.
4. When discussing the situation, get input from the other party. Finding solutions are easier when ideas are being bounced off against one another.
------Before you make your own

I am perfectly relaxed, it has nothing to do with patriotism either but a simple lack of comprehension by people.
