The brazilian military is a joke. PROSUPER just went to hell, the Navy will acquire used frigates instead of new ones.

There are rumours from well placed sources that FAB is now looking for used F-16 Block 40 to replace the Mirage 2000. After 17 YEARS, the brazilians politians weren´t able to choose a fighter.

The Army has ammunition for less than 1 HOUR of fight. They bought some old Guepards AAA from Germany with ammunition to even less time. No ammunition for basic training and I mean 5.56 and 7.62. Not to mention food for the troops.

Brazil maybe big but it´s weak.

Oh really? Says who? You?! Based on what? How’s your Portuguese? There are Brasilian Navy officer’s writing at Alide an DB I am sure that would be more than happy to discuss their incapability with you…

Situação dos navios escolta da MB

Alexandre Galante

No papel, a Esquadra tem 14 navios-escolta. A realidade é:
■Corvetas Classe “Inhaúma”: Nenhuma operacional;
■Corveta “Barroso”: Navio com maior índice operacional (Operando praticamente sem restrições);
■Fragatas Classe “Greenhalgh”: Só uma está operacional e mesmo assim, com restrições;
■Fragatas Classe “Niterói”: Uma sendo canibalizada, uma inoperante e 4 operando com diferentes níveis de restrições.

Ou seja, dos 14 escoltas, somente 6 estão operacionais e destes, apenas a “Barroso” está próxima do 100%.

Querem submarino de propulsão nuclear, Navios-aeródromo, Segunda Esquadra, 30 escoltas….

Que mundo essa gente vive? Com certeza não estão no dia a dia da MB.

Could you please tell where was the mighty Brazilian Navy then?

Perhaps:

A Marinha chegou a comunicar a seus funcionários que não precisariam mais trabalhar às sextas-feiras. Culpa do superávit primário, explicava o comando em nota distribuída internamente na última segunda. A Esquadra, digamos assim, havia sido atingida pelo corte de gastos necessário para atingir a meta de economia do setor público, o tal superávit primário.

Talk is cheap my friend. I´m sure those brazilian´s navy officers will have a lot to talk about. How they are designing a nuclear submarine and they will buid a lot more in the future(Por sinal a piada é que o Brazil é o país do futuro só que este futuro nunca chega). That the PROSUPER program states they will build two nuclear aircraft carriers:sleeping: blá, blá, blá. Como diz o velhu ditado: o papel aceita qualquer palavra.

Come to think of it. Brazil should take the Falklands 😀

I´m wondering how they will do this. A few months ago, a brazilian army general revealed to the press that the army had ammunition for no more than ONE HOUR of combat. They bought a few Guepards from Germany with a patetic quantity of ammunition, perhaps enough to anounce its presence just to be blow up by Brimstones.
Remember the rescue operations of the Air France Flight AF-447? The Brazilian Navy spent most of its fuel reserves to conduce the rescue operation. The result was that the majority of the navy spent the rest of the year on harbour. Not to mention that the brazilian navy is trash, no air-defenses worth to mention.
Let´s see the Air Force. It´s widely know that only GTA(VIP transportation) are getting enough flight hours. Fighter pilots can only dream about fliyng that much. I believe it´s correct to assume they fly less than 150 hours a year, just enough to remember how to take-off an land. They plan to buy 36 fighter aircrafts but only 28 BVR missiles (What a Joke):stupid:, less than a missile for aircraft. Until today the air force has no anti-ship missile in its inventory.

They can go to a war against UK, but may advice is to not forget the white flag. They will need it.

The best way to prepare the 3rd World War (Islam vs everybody else) is to let the Islamists ruin a maximum of Countries and show their natural tendencies to oppression . Then , the West will hit hard on them once for all .

Cheers .

Why wait. Let´s blow up Saudi Arabia and solve the problem once for all. The terrorists will loose their major sponsors and the world will be a much safer place to live, but we can´t do that because Saudi Arabia is rulled by an “enlightened monarch” not a blood thirsty dictator. He sells cheap and good oil and buy billions of dollars in weapons each year. Who cares if he give millions of dollars to terrorist organizations around the world.

I don´t understand IAF. They are developing a transport airplane with Russia in the same category of the ones from Embraer(KC-390) and Lockheed(C-130). The other planes are smaller like C-27J and Casa C-295. What´s the reason for this procurement?

Officials: Israel launches airstrike into Syria

It´s Israel helping its agents acting in Syria. The excuse is the destruction of Sa-17.

Someone is trying to justifie the purchase of Patriots missiles from U.S., that´s all.
They are trying to recreate the image of the big bad red bear just to grab a billion dollar deal.

It´s the same thing they do in the middle east creating the false image of an nuclear Iran atacking the entire world with Scud missiles and selling billions of dollars to fools like Saudi Arabia(I stop counting a long time ago how much this dictatorship spent on U.S. made armaments in the last two years. I think even SIPRI os lost by now), Iraq, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrein, Turkey etc.
