@@comitatus5337 Since none of our neighbours can really counter these and a low threat of direct war... it's hardly a pressing matter. There was a new indigenous design tank concept in the 90's too but got cancelled since we don't really need much more right now and certainly don't have the money for it. Many of the systems developed for that tank were then integrated into the Mk.2 Olifant tanks.
Nice training South Africa keep a close watch on Mozambique things are getting crazy there here in west Africa nobody expected Boku Haram but they will never take Ghana🇬🇭🇬🇭💪🏿
There is now Isil in Mozambique. The Southern Army, I believe, is ready to deal with terrorism in the Southern African Development Community region. We should always be ready.
I believe South Africa is well prepared and they might have people keeping a close eye deep in Mozambique. When it comes to our capabilities South Africa don't shout or boast. Thanks my brother.
Damn I am proud. Keep up the good work. I loved the rocket launches at night, that's when it really shows just how effective this drill is. ANd Mabhena looks good too.
We should also get that Iron dome system the Israeli government use and the Russian S200/400 system. We make sure that we know how to reverse engineer them and even better them. I agree we need a new lighter and faster Tank like the T90.

Sandiso Buqa South Africa still produces some of the best AFV’s and drone variants in the world, it’s just that we haven’t been designing MBT’s, attack/fighter aircraft and helicopters recently. Either way we still produce some really good weapons that we usually sell to foreign powers. The only problem is Denel isn’t good at selling so they struggle to break even
Not as kak as you think. They do well in the Congo, and in CAR in 2013 they gave the Seleka a good hiding without air support or artillery. near 10:1 casualty ratio. The Seleka general offered a ceasefire because some of their units suffered 50% casualties. Much of the knowledge and experience of the SADF has been transferred as far as training goes. Some of the generals and officers from that time still serve today too.
That Olifant looks badass! Especially with all of its modern upgrades.
We really need new tanks!

South Africa home of the rooikat and rooivalk
Just need a bigger budget
Then there wil just be corruption lol
There's a need to modernise ASAP. A couple of T - 90, su - 35 or migs, a few more rooivalks and some drones in the mix for starters please.

Are you serious bro? South Africa has been building their weapons all along, we just need a few upgrades there and a good budget.
