patriot4: And then you woke up to the reality that that never happened.
If you killed that much of them then there is no way they would have entered the capital.
I don't think you killed more than 20 of them.
We have posted source of the source even a rebel source that backs us up. Only a few fools disagree. aka you

OneQuestion: Thank you - a coherent answer. So, I would take it your military would have a medical wing as part of the structure? The people serving in the hospital should come from the military? Or how is it staffed? Is this Nigeria?
They run by SAMHS or south African military health serves. The staff is mostly military but there are civilians that work there. In SA doctors have to work for the government before they can go private and may choose any government health care point. Working at a mill hospital is one of the preferd options.

probably the same though i think each branch has there own hospitals
Foreign AffairsRe: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by zaandrew: 2:15pm On Jun 28, 2013
OneQuestion: Ok - military hospital. Thank you. Does this hospital fall under the military? i.e. Managed separately?
yes SA has 3 Mill hospitals plus a number of smaller unit based clinics and deplobal units.

agaugust: both Hind and Terminator are ambulance convertible helos.

the report says 37% abused but did not differentiate that from R.ape, clean up south african military, its full of R.apists

okay, you as a person , which type have you been doing to those SANDF ladies ? grin
Have you seen the internal space of a hind, it has not got enough internal space, it can carry 4 stretchers with no medics. Plus it seen has a target not something you want for a medvac choper.

A r.ap.e case in the SANDF will make the news. Sexual abuse covers a lot of things.


I have not heard of a r.ap.e case but there are cases where people say foolish things. But i do not feel the need to go in to detail
Foreign AffairsRe: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by zaandrew: 10:25am On Jun 28, 2013
agaugust: seems the african countries dont talk too much about their military medical corps as some of us cannot find much information on them by free internet searches. however, they are usually are a reflection of the civilian medical capabilities of eaach african country, but usually more disciplined and more efficient.

i guess Egypt, South Africa, Nigeria, Algeria should lead the pack and i believe they are able to handle any challenges expected from the battlefield casualty situations.

they all have very good military hospitals in the city, and mobile field hospitals for frontline.

nigerian military medical corps have special battle field ambulances versions of combat armoured vehicles and aircrafts, i guess includes

STEYR APC

COBRA APC

Mi-35 HIND HELICOPTERS

all for either custom built or modular ambulances and mobile hospitals. cobra and hind helicopters are modular platforms.

on the law/legal angle, the universal laws of war and military conduct both in peace time and conflict/engagement are all incoporated in the rule books of nigerian military and usualy enforced when need arises.

some nigerian soldiers have been sentenced by court martial ruling for offences ranging from personal misdemeanour to unprovoked assault in traffic, and nigerians were well infromed of the judgements.

i think south africa needs to do something about the new complaints from its female soldiers of R.ape by their male sodiers, 37 % of the women have been R.aped and justice is often not done.

.
there is info floating around.

though a hind can perome a medvac it is not suited for it. capacty is to small and well it a target. i beivle you ment the mi17 sincee it can carry a lot of wounded, medcal supplys and staff.

what about the cliams of war crimes in sirri leon

learn to read. it did noot say 37 percent raped but abused. call a female a LovePeddler or a slut is sexualy abuse.

The quality of work produced by Denel Aerostructures (DAe) for the new generation A400M airlifter has been rewarded with a third work package worth R200 million by Airbus Military.

The multi-million Rand contract will see the Kempton Park-based aerostructure design and manufacturing operation producing ribs, spars and swords (the skeletal support structure) for the A400M.

An indication of the esteem the Denel Group company is held in by the original equipment manufacturer came from Airbus Military chief executive, Domingo Urena, when he spoke at this week’s Paris Airshow where the contract for the third work package was signed.

“Denel, with its diverse set of expertise, capabilities and capacities is central to Airbus Military’s ambition to develop an expanded and multi-facetted partnership with South Africa’s high-tech aerospace and defence industry, tied to South Africa’s military aircraft requirements and acquisitions,” he said.

Preparations are underway at DAe adjacent to OR Tambo International Airport for launch production of components with the first finished shipset to Airbus’ vertical tail plane factory at Stade in Germany scheduled for March next year.

Under a renegotiated contract announced last September, the South African manufacturer is also responsible for two other A400M work packages involving design, engineering and fabrication of the wing-to-fuselage fairing and the fuselage top shells for the A400M.


The wing-to-fuselage fairing is the largest single aerostructure component ever produced in South Africa and provides an aerodynamic shroud over sensitive equipment located in the aircraft’s centre wing section. The fairing protects the equipment from lightning, hail damage and bird strikes.



The fuselage top shells are made up of more than 1 100 individual parts and a large machined skin, engineered out of an aluminium alloy. Each A400M is fitted with two top shells, positioned in front and behind the wings where they join the fuselage. They are also fitted with approximately 1 000 brackets which support electrical and electronic wiring, hot air and heat exchange pipes and emergency life rafts.

The latest work package to be awarded to DAe is contracted to run over the entire life of the A400m programme. This, Public Enterprises Minister Malusi Gigaba said, was another indication of Airbus Military’s confidence in both Denel and South Africa’s design and manufacturing capabilities, coupled with the company’s ability to deliver on time and within budget.

Donian007: You haven't answer me, if you get the answer right then you'll stop deluding youself. WHO MADE THE AMEBO?
I am far to busy watching youtube videos to do that bit of research and i don't really care if magic elvis made it on the moon.
Foreign AffairsRe: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by zaandrew: 5:45pm On Jun 16, 2013
Donian007: Maybe Marshal Alex told you AFIT made it for sight-seeing or betterstill maybe you have a source to show that Amebo has been ditch, but if not then you are a CHRONICAL OLODO. I have a source to prove that Amebo did a perfect test-flight.
NAF has chosen to buy far better israeli drones over a local product what does that tell you.
Foreign AffairsRe: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by zaandrew: 5:27pm On Jun 16, 2013
Donian007: I would have classified you a fool but i won't because insults are not in my dictionary. Now answer me, you said NAF rejected the AMEBO for Isaeli made drones. Now who made the Amebo=AFIT and who owns AFIT? @Andrewza
Why does it matter who makes it, it not in mainstream NAF use.

agaugust: stop that lie, the crashed south african satellite is not a prototype, it was real but now dead. prototypes dont get launched into space orbit, or you dont read world news in your village ? the satellite crashed . period.

south africa has NO satellite, that is why your military fights war as blind as a bat, seleka rebels were face to face with south african army before you could see them. now you say south african navy can travel 5,000km away from home base to do naval blockade of nigeria's 300,000 sq km EEZ waters with only 3 to 5 ships/vessels without a single satellite to co-ordinate and guide your warships....F00LISH dreams of a world war II level south african military blind as a bat that cannot see the enemy beyond its nose distance.

new planned south africa satellite on your wish list is not yet built, how do you know it is better than that of nigeria, kenya, algeria ? do you have full technical details of the other countries existing satellites ? post source to prove this claim. you love to lie and deceive at random, your credibility and public trust on this forum is already zero.
Why would a prototype not get launched, and it never crashed it got hit by a solar storm something that wipes out a lot of satellites, one even knocked out the power grid in canada.

We got satellite image of CAR i should you that remember. Why would we use a satellite to guide our ships, for your info we don't use GPS or any electronic system has our primary guidance system. No navy relies on GPS. do you know you need to get and send a signal to use GPS and that can be tracked. The system can also fail.

seems you don't know much about military satellites and don't read my sources i give

i post weblink sources 20 times more than you do. check my 1,300 posts on this forum.

you are the one that always writes your private opinion with no source to prove and you try to force people to believe your claims and comments on this forum. go back and check your many posts that have very many claims but no single source to prove them.

@andrewza you have no shame, you deliberately and regularly and fraudulently lied to all of us here that south africa has a functioning satellite as at today despite many weblink sources posted by nigerians proved you were lying and deceiving people here.

@msauza proved you a liar without knowing you had been lying to us for many days here.

your credibility and public trust is hereby reduced to zero for ever, nobody will ever trust you again, no wonder you lied so many ties about seleka rebels casualty of 800 d.ead, telling lies is in your b.lood
T craft hull, nigerian archers, nigerian high end rounds, extra extra

SA does have a satellite there are a number of launched observation and comms satellite launched by SA and private south african. SANSA controls all of there orbit, so i technically have never lied.


by the way can i get the T-craft sourse

Donian007: Now thats a GRAND LIE! Best in Africa? Where did you keep Egypt's F16. Shelve that idea of yours that SA have the best of everything in Africa its making you look like a HALF not a FOOL.
dude the cheetah C was a match for the F16 and the SU27 is better than the F16.

Donian007: I realy don't like insults, wether being the recieiver or giver but you are not just worth sparing. You live in a glass house yet you want to throw......... See who is talking about transparency and accountability, besides I can assure you that Nigeria did her JF7 purchase without any scandal but for a country and military that left her soldiers(lives) and weapons to waste, can't give accurate account of how many weapons and soldiers she lost just because she wants to compete with France over useless influence, spent a whopping R100m just to charter aircrafts, took bribe to favour and patronise an aircraft manufacturing company, now how ACCOUNTABLE and TRANSPARENT is that? Besides that @Andrewza can you tell me your mission in CAR?
So you saying that NAF is run by morons? because that is the only way a uncorrupted government would choose the j7 has there frontline fighter. And there is a report i will try to find the name again but it listed a number of african countries and deals with the issue of corruption transparency accountability extra, nigeria scored low on every point SA scored high on every point but i thin 3 where we scored medium going on high.

just because there was no scandal does not mean there was no corruption, if you know so much about the deal what was the requirements, the other options, why they where not chosen over the j7 extra extra.


what do you mean can not give account all numbers of every single death in the SANDF is posted along with every los. so explain what you mean by that.


yes we payed 100 million for charted flights but we also deployed a entire infantry battalion in 2 days to the DRC and uganda, evacuated wounded back to SA in a few hours and flew in a SF and medical team in half a day. These are things nigeria could and has never done so please cry me a river.

SANDF never took a bribe look at who is being charged and you will not see one unformed member.


What about CAR there was a training team in country since 2007 and the rebels were getting violent. SA sent a small team to protect the training mission. after the regional force and local military either stepped aside without even token resistance or joined the rebels Sa became the sole military force in front of a rebel force of over 3000 in numbers. of whom anywhere from 500 to 800 of whom are now dead at the hands of SA forces for only 15 of ours dead. We never stood a chance vs the entire rebel force alone, they were able to bypass and incircle us and we did not have near enough ammo to stop them. In the aftermath SA deployed rapidly a infantry battalion and air support, Non of which could land in CAR due to the french who controlled the airport. Nonetheless not one member of the training team was wounded or killed.

saengine: Nigeria buying F7 jets means one of two things. Either the people responsible for procurement in the NAF have absoluely no idea what they are doing, and how technologically behind the F7 is. I mean look at its radar system for example. Or it means they were paid to to buy those jets.
either way they messed up
Foreign AffairsRe: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by zaandrew: 4:28pm On Jun 15, 2013
Donian007: Look youngman, I am not as daft as you are, Everyone knows that the JF7 is not a very good choice but at least its purchase was a very clean process and we are not storing them, we even assemble and de-assemble + maintain them locally. If it was that cheap and good why did they bribe you SAns to buy, Andrew that your uniform hanging on a mango tree has realy made you senseless and shameless or maybe @gingerbeer passed you some bottles before leaving. SMH!
how sure are you that it is clean. Nigerian military has zero transparency or accountability. You would not know if there was corruption.

Because they want to secure the deal. you can compare the costs it is the cheapest option
Foreign AffairsRe: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by zaandrew: 3:34pm On Jun 15, 2013
Donian007: If this is how everyother SAn thinks then I'm afraid for your country and ashamed of you. In Nigeria when our politicians indulge in corruption and are exposed we don't defend them, we scold and condemn the act with every medium we have. It's so unfortunate and embarassing and I know your comrades are disappointed in you @Andrewza for defending and condoning corruption that has put your airforce into ridicule(Grippen Storage). Shame on you for justifying that bribery. SMH!
this coming from one of the most corrupt nations in the world. how did the corruption put the gripen in storage, please explain that. i just don't care whether BAE paid a bribe the gripen is a good fighter and not any worse than the other options and is cheaper.

how ever you should shot your politician who got you the F7, upgraded mirage F1s, dirt cheap second hand SU27, hand me down F16 extra would have been cheap enough for NAF. But no you get upgraded mig 21s. now that is sad.

the gripen issue was that we got the option for a number of aircraft all of them where good the BAE spiced up the gripen deal. It is not like we bought something bad or over priced. The best aircraft for SAAF is the rafal or euro fighter typhoon they where still not 100% back then and cost double to buy, does not have the rough landing and short field ability and is even heavier on maintenance. As i said it does not bother me gripen is a good aircraft best in africa but you may enjoy your mig 21s i mean j7s

Donian007: Hey! Hey! Hey! You forgot something, what can you say about The Grippen Bribery(Corruption)?.
that saying the other companies are not corrupt is a lie and that saying arms trade does not have corruption in it is like saying mcdonalds is health meal.

the gripen was not the best choice but it was not a bad choice nor was it waste of money since it is cheaper than other options so i don't really care. if we bought mig 21 knock offs i would then complian

Foreign AffairsRe: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by zaandrew: 12:49pm On Jun 15, 2013
Augustine Again: show me source of international laws of war or UN charter that says selling arms to a country, especially a self-defence missile to sink hostile enemy warships attacking its coast/territorial waters, is an intervention.

arms sale embargo will more likely be on the aggressor and that will be south africa that is invading with naval blockade.

china will sell arms to anybody who wants to buy, they want money, not friendship.

you dream of stopping arms sales to a country that has defence pact with ukraine, india, pakistan ? those countries have or produce long range guided missiles.

you like to fight war by looking only in one direction, then you get a shocker from the other direction you did not look.

read war history, i read it.
it means they have chosen a side why would china choose nigeria over SA

Augustine Again: i said as at now, i did not say future. who will a nigerian submarine pursue today ? cameroon ?

south african project Biro is a big wish list, you cannot even maintain the 12 Gripen jets you put in freezer ice cold for the next 10 years long term storage.

anyway south african politicians were bribed with $3.6 million by Gripen manufacturer SAAB to waste money and buy what you dont need. who is the threat ? Mugabe ?
not my wish list but your navy or should i say the nigerian navy,


And have any of SAN ships not been able to sail, we actually brought 2 of our strike craft out of the grave yard. The gripen are not needed has of now no enemy air force to fight so putting them in storage will insure that when they needed they will be in a good condition.

considering the aircraft we would have bought over the gripen cost double the money i don't see the problem.


by the way BIRO is not a wish list it is fully funded project with a high prioty
