- AAD 2014 South African National Defence Forces (SANDF) show off their air and land capabilities to Industry and the General Public
Got to hand it to South African defence engineers. They really know how to achieve a lot with a relatively low budget. From the Mirage 3 aircraft upgrades (easily the most advanced and capable varients produced), to indigenous missile systems, small arms, you name it they've had a crack at a locally produced option. Most impressive for me are the ground systems, especially armoured vehicles like the casspir. They'd sussed the value of mine resistant vehicles way before anyone in Europe or America and without question invented the MRAP type vehicle, as we now know it. Just hope the SA defence industry can survive into the 21st century, be a shame to lose that capacity for innovation. Its a very different place these days, some things for the better....many things, not so much!
Imagine if we had more budget
True
Yeah.
True
It would just mean more lost to corruption.
More training is better
i love how he mispronounced everything.
I love China military 😍

I guess the day will come when they are tested. We just have to pray they can defend us.
@@maroelakafee2174 we are pushing Islamic state out of Namibia so yes we are defend you and the people of Namibia drc and else where
Love the video👍🏼👍🏼. Rooivalk is pronounced "Roy-Valch". As in Red Falcon😎.
What is the most elite South African Special Operations unit? By that, I'm talking of a counter terror/direct action (basically more kinetic and less "battalion/company" sized SF units)??? Like what's South Africa's SEAL TEAM 6 or Delta/TF Green? I know about the older SFB (which is like our Marine Corps Special Ops/MARSOC or our Rangers in terms of training)
love how this guys can't pronounce any of the Afrikaans words....
The sad truth is that the private military forces in south africa outnumber the army and police and far more experienced and better trained with the latest gear.
Gear doesn't make you a better soldier
Papa Yoda wise words from Yoda.
@@Anel3 Private military usually hires professionals with experience.
Guess they have a bigger budget than the police/SANDF and can hire professionals
Seventy thousand+one hundred and fifty thousand (bro private military companies do not out number the sandf and saps)
It has improved but not near the skill of the Army back in the day
Lol u stupid
I respect the fact that you are not shooting them down, you could have been childish and said worse but you didnt. Regarding what you said about skill, SA has not seen much action, only our peace keeping forces are involved which is not a lot of feet on the ground if im not mistaken.
@@siba-mini8377 you are mistaken, SA is the only peacekeeping nation that is cleared for direct action and offensive action against the enemy by the UN. SANDF soldiers deployed to DRC are the primary QRF as well and see a lot of action.
@@ginger0208 True and remember we have never lost, also we are capable of ending wars, not fueling them AKA call us the peace maker
swak
It's a pity the SANDF arrived too late to prevent the complete butchering of the afrikaans language that happened in this video 😂
