SANDF places small batch order for Denel T5-52

"Denel has revealed that the South African Army will be getting three "artillery platforms," which are almost certainly T5-52 self-propelled howitzers.

This is according to the latest Denel annual financial report which stated that among Denel Land Systems' key highlights for the 2016/17 financial year were "successful client demonstration on the T5 artillery project, followed by three artillery platforms buy-off contract with the SANDF."


Suspect it won't stop at three or even 6 over the next 12-18 months.

I love how all you guys keep trying to get me into trouble by asking for pics of on-going ops you know I can't share .
I'll say this: the bigger SADC countries should be ashamed that Namibia has sent the largest contingent to Lesotho.

Frumentum:
gottfried21, any particular reason you guys decided to deploy Marines to land-locked Lesotho?

This picture was taken last week at the Walvis Bay Port,unfortunately nobody knows the backstory

Mention should be made of the Zambian Air Force contingent, under the command of Col Alipher Phiri, who have been put through their paces – from base protection to helicopter casualty evacuation exercise. I wish you well with your probable mission to South Sudan.

The two vessels are Chinese-built and are named after Namibia's heritage. Daures is a local name for the Brandberg fire mountain, while Brukkaros is a large extinct volcano in a form of a ring mountain in //Karas Region.#MODNamibia
