Look at the old apartheid machines still running good, they were really designed and made to last.

South africa has to invest in military, hire more soldiers more especially unemployed youth....

[deonengelbrecht]

We may have our problems but we still have a beautiful country, peace, and each other. May God bless these soldiers who defend our beautiful nation 🇿🇦

This exercise is severely impacted by the decades long lack of proper funding to the SANDF, as well as lack of discipline and expertise. The exercise is prepared and "staged" but does not show an ability to fight an up to date adversary using current techniques and equipment used in modern warfare. The showcase unfortunately highlights these shortcomings, thereby resulting in a disservice to the country and the free provision of intelligence to our enemies. Examples of a lack of discipline and team leadership are poor joint standard of camouflage by the infantry on foot, also with light reflective bush hats, a female soldier in the parade clutching a shopping bag and the common use of dark glasses, including by the senior spectating staff officers. There was, as usual, also an over reliance on our good special forces to provide a semblance of class to the affair. The real state of readiness of the SANDF is well known due to the lack of serviceable aircraft, suitable vehicles and ships.
This was an exercise of smoke and mirrors to misinform the public. Brutal honesty is required if you want to be successful in defending the country in present times. The current SANDF is also not representative of the population.

I think the ww3 talk might be something to pay attention to.

Look how they were casually sitting on the koppie like they were stoned. The parashute drills were a horror to watch 😂😂😂.

[reubz]

Does not compare to the army we had in the 70s and 80s …

[lukeanthony]

Gents are watching this like: "damn... look at all the outdated equipment"

[KgothatsoMatlala-kw]

[RastaAfricanGentleman]

🤣🤣🤣 our armies due to government mismanagement has seen its resources go down to less budgets, less tools, less innovation and less specializes training

I respect the 1980 -1990 commanders 🎖 🥇 🙏 they knew their story. As for Ramaphosa soldiers, they look tired 😫, however when I was south Africa 🇿🇦 the past few years the only military 🪖 I recognized, was the Taxi 🚕 🚖 association.

War is more than this play ask soldiers in Ukraine
