A drone that is controlled by radar .WHAT THE F@CK it uses data link because the rest uses magical spell.n@gga i was born speaking English ,you cantanker[quote author=africaken254 post=49810219]A drone that is controlled by radar .WHAT THE F@CK it uses data link because the rest uses magical spell.n@gga i was born speaking English ,you cantankerous fool

africaken254:
show me a small size UAS exactly like Gulma that is launched like an ordinary aircraft !,most companies making such UAS launch them using catapult or bungee to save fuel and time to prepare a landing strip for a such UAS. your in a isolated outpost with limited resource,how are you supposed to launch a Gulma UAS !? all the footage i have seen of a Gulma UAS it was taking off from a tarmacked runway

africaken254:
what i have marked ,what the F@CK are they meant for !reason my friend reason!!use your f@cking thinking capacity and stop acting like we are in kindergarten

africaken254:
those Gulma UAS not UAV can only operate from a prepared air field and from the inception of the project there has not being any proof of them being used in actual operations.

africaken254:
to have such a SUAS small unmanned aerial system closer to the battlefield ,you need to either launch by hand,use a Catapult & Bungee Launchers then recovered drone using a net or skyhook recovery system et.c .they are limited by size and line of sight.

this is what i wrote


the day people start reading rather than assuming things, everything will be much better.

why did i write this

"it will be the 3rd crash for JF17 in PAF service if true"

and what does it mean in plain ordinary english

and the noteworthy responses it elicited
1.tejas is 30+ years old
2.shitty "suppa powa" dream
3.three crashes in one year
4. nemesis meant jf17 is crash prone
etc

fault is mine, i should have never posted the news and how was i to know that so called people who can speak with so much authority and conviction on fighter jets and even do comparisons are ignorant of the fact that ALL machines are prone to error, both internal and external.
1.pilot disorientation
2.engine flame out
3.bird hit
4.MRO induced crashes
etc
etc


as for 3 crashes i stand by it , believe it or leave it . i am not responsible for some peoples ignorance. and also the fact that crashes r in not in any way a reflection of an aircraft's capability if it is caused by external factors , in fact they also serve to improve the safety features if the crash is due to internal facts and r found out during subsequent court of inquiry and remedial measures r introduced.

i am in a Nigerian forum , i have met many good people here and learned and laughed a lot , met people who think based on facts etc and have an open mind , but to expect me to tow somebody's line because u bought a particular jet is being delusional. facts based on technical parameters/technology are facts, sometimes it will be favorable sometimes it will be not ,no amount of jingoism or name calling is going to change it.

so it is better i make a gracious exit. i actually did it before but forgot to log out and saw the mentions.

i wish good luck to all of u ( except for one gyrocopter warrior in diapers )

Not even SAAB marketers are as deluded as Patches. This infographic puts to rest the delusional claim of Patches. The Gripen C/D is only as good as an F-16 C/D, that is an F-16 Block 40 aircraft.



There is no way a Gripen C/D is anywhere as good as this F-16 Block 52, they are not even in the same class. It is impossible, infact should be jailable for anyone to mention a Gripen C/D in the same sentence as an F-16 Block 52.

Look at the glorious plane.... Beauty and class.

We paid $1million a unit for each of our UCAVs. That's $5 million for 5 units, offcourse that number doesn't include the funds we paid for the AR-1 Precision Guided Munitions(PGM).


For the Yahbon Flash 20, i don't know how much they cost, but i suspect we would also get 5 units.


Talking about UAVs in Nigerian military service, it is unfortunate the level of ignorance coming out of East-Africa. On the tactical drones used by the army, i came across this retarrded comment on twitter.

"Useful armies are using drones the size of trucks Nigeria is playing.."


Also on the Gulma drone.


The Nigerian army uses small tactical drones in close collaboration with fielded forces, to identify and target critical enemy assets, including command centers,
logistical centers and concentrations of troops and vehicles.



On the Gulma drone, the Chief of Air Staff, while receiving the Comptroller General of the Nigerian Immigration Service stated categorically.


"The CAS(Air Mshl Abubakar) stated that
the NAF is in a position to partner with NIS for its UAV
operation since the NAF has successfully designed and
produced 5 versions of the GULMA UAV, as well as
been able to operationalise them through collaboration with UAVISION of Portugal."



On the size of Drones, the Nigerian military operates multiple MALE UAVs. Atleast 10 in number (in-service & ordered).

chinese8107:
No condemn,but he was implying JF17 crashed many times,Tejas not even 1 time.Then the concluntion.......

CuteMorriz:
True....but the technology is not his....did he design the boards from scratch...he bought and fixed parts by parts...?

Max24:
Nigerians are morons.

CuteMorriz:
you can't just do those stuff and start selling in commercial quantities na....they are people's work...those stuffs are already patented....try it and the original owners will fry ur ass in court...

Etizz:
how will Dis be? this is not invention, mind u, secondly, drone is not a new toy anymore, moreover, it has been used by the NA (including camera and Missile carrying drone) but yet no reasonable idea about d whereabout of the girls,

the question is, what is special about Dis one dat it is now a hope of getting the chibok girls..... don't u get it??

giles14:
atleast its better dan ur 30+ years old tejas jets

comradespade:
Issorite.
keep feeding us with propaganda...

nemesis2u:
it looks like a JF17 crashed in the Arabian sea. no official confirmation though.

it will be the 3rd crash for JF17 in PAF service if true.

The fact that the mission was being flown out of Karachi indicates that the air-frame belonged to the no2. Squadron (Minhas), which operates the recently inducted JF17 block 2.
news blackout from PAF sources , but the news broke out because a british airlines flying overhead picked up a distress signal and reported to the authorities.
now SAR operations are on.

@henry240
came to know that Nigeria is set to sign deal in November for JF17

And who told you assembly is not an element of Manufacturing?

Welding, Rivetting? Are these not legitimate manufacturing processes and yet assembly methods?

jln115:
Negative G=inverted flight
Negative G dive=tdayof made up manoeuvre.

And No its not also called an outside loop....you can fly level and still do an outside loop you don't have to come into the loop inverted...but you obviously don't know that!!
