SADF had a very strange form of apartheid, there where no mixed units, but the whites learned very quickly about survival in the hostile African environment from the tribes who lived there for centuries, I know some soldiers from the Kenyan GSU, KDF and KWS, they have learned me so much about survival in Africa, from poaching small animals, repelling mosquitoes, up to slaughtering large game, catching crocodiles with a dead chicken, a giant fish hook, and an electronic winch, and how to defend your camp against large carnivorous animals wit Acacia branches, I always carry atleast 2x20 litres of water and 2x20 litres of fuel in my car, and i always carry my emergency backpack containing a small tool kit, Zippo lighter, KA-BAR knife, leatherman tool, magnesium stick, tie wraps, rope, first aid kit, compass and a flashlight whenever we travel somewhere remote.
Afrikaners AKA Boers have been in SA since the late 17th century. Yes of course they learned invaluable lessons from other African nations in SA, but Boer Bushkraft is a centuries-old tradition in and of itself and that nation is as much a part of Africa as any other nation of people on the continent.
the whites had been living in the bush there for 400 years. the whites were protecting the blacks from their own brothers who would necklace and slaughter them. i doubt that the whites needed to be taught to build a mud hut by the "indigenous" tribes
Thanks for the video man.I am south african and I respect what the SADF in our country.I'm proud to be in Afrikaans heritage.My father served as a driver in SADF.

@@justanotherlegend3315 So much of it was disbanded post 1994, to be replaced by largely African personnel. The old guard are still around, by and large, and they are still capable of reeking mayhem . . . if required.
In terms of punch for its size and professionalism I don't think there was much to pick between SADF, IDF or the British Armed forces back in those days all in their own separate ways. But the fact the SADF was mainly a conscript army and what they were called on to do on several occasions really is impressive. The battle of the Lomba river really was a very impressive action.
I do think they are competent, really. But i must say there are a lot to be proven still, since they were fighting incompetent enemies. Just a non political argument, i think the Wehrmacht still has nothing comparable. They achieved a 10 to 1 casualty ratio against Red Army in Kharkov, while the USSR itself achieved 8 to 1 casualty ratio against Japan in Manchuria. All the while IJA achieved 8 to 1 casualty ratio against Britain in Malaya. Of course, there are many factors involved, but you get the point. No offense, SADF didn't fight capable opponents. Nor did IDF. But they are really competent, yes. If not, they would have been slaughtered.
@@stateservant we were experts at fighting cowardly terrorists , who attacked the weak and the innocent , we were experts at hunting down and killing those dogs , just like the IDF , what you seem to forget is that Boer soldiers took on and gave the greatest empire on earth the most expensive war they ever fought , there are thousands of graves of english solders here to this day as proof that we are a great fighting nation , also Winston Churchill himself said that we are the best soldiers on the planet so with all due respect FU , bring whomever you like , we will bury them next to the english you little ***** BTW the IDF kicked your little arab asses all over the desert in the 6 day war and since then you were too cowardly to take them on in a conventional war so do us all a favor and STFU
As a Swiss, we all have to serve in the military as we have a militia system in Switzerland. We probably have nothing on these guys as they look though as nails and have some actual combat experience. I was fortunate enough to be assigned to the self propelled artillery (M109 KAWEST). I saw now the G6 Rhino in this video and I was wondering why other countries don't use wheeled howitzers. From what I've learned about the G6, it's very fast, has a very long firing range, is very modern and not expensive. And other howitzers are surely not better armored (except for maybe the German PzH 2000). I honestly would like to try that thing out, looks like a beast. Great video by the way. Thanks!
Probably because geography, and artillery doctrine. You see, G6 is a wheeled artillery that has great performance on flat lands and savannah, which south Africa regions consist of, and could be maintained without needing extensive equipment unlike M109. The SADF, which employed it in the Bush War also pressured mobile tactics to wear down rebels. G6 if I recall are usually used as shoot and scoot vehicle, as to avoid counter-battery and tank rush from both SWAPO and MPLA. I think other than geography and doctrine, it was also logistical problem. I mean, if you could import already well established product with robust supply line why you would order something that, at the time, unknown and alien at best? Hope this helps.
@@rakaipikatan8922 Thanks for the food for thoughts. I'm honestly just fascinated by the G6. The shoot and scoot tactics is what we trained with the M109 KAWEST as well. That's just basic mobile artillery tactics to, as you said, avoid counter-battery. But yes, with the wheels it's definitely more suited for bush war.
RuneSlavv- true but even then the SADF had black soldiers who had a fierce reputation!! The sad part of this racist past was these men were never counted in the causality reports only white troopers at least to the public.

Wow. I well remember admiring the SADF. In every encounter with MPLA and their Cuban allies the SADF kicked their ass! Despite or perhaps because of the sanctions ARMSCOR became a first class developer of new military equipment. It pains me to think of the RSA and Rhodesia being gone. The world is a poorer place without them.

Lol Britania abandoned both Rhodesia and South Africa cause USA told you to dismantle your empire and colonies and you obeyed like puppies so Britannia doesn't rule, sadly.
I was always interested in how segregated military units were structured, since most Rhodesian, SA, and pre-1950s US units that were majority black had white officer’s. What was that like, for the officers and the lower ranked guys, their must have been some tension but at the same time if your fighting alongside each other their is going to at least some sense of comradeship.
No. We grew up with blacks They 80% of the population Used to this. They the blacks where defending their home We where good at splitting the various groups Take Rhodesia Ndebele versus Shona Take the Mozambique civil war They where often used as expert trackers

@Christopher Hynes fok jou jou kont
Even Bafana Bafana will win against our current army what a joke .
Why did the SADF ditch the FN and go with the Galil?
In terms of practicality, Kalashnikov designs are better and more reliable
They wanted a new rifle chambered in 5.56 and their only ally was Israel at that time

Lol Britania abandoned both Rhodesia and South Africa cause USA told you to dismantle your empire and colonies and you obeyed like puppies so Britannia doesn't rule, sadly.
@@davidlopez6703 losing the empire was the only good thing Britain did
24 years later after the end in 1997 and we all are speaking it's tongue
@@davidlopez6703 Bullshit. The empire dismantled due to 2 world wars.
@@tours7325 yeah still a good thing there empire was worse than the nazis cope
Saw the sandf when I served in africa. No better than the Nigerians, and that's saying a lot.
I was always interested in how segregated military units were structured, since most Rhodesian, SA, and pre-1950s US units that were majority black had white officer’s. What was that like, for the officers and the lower ranked guys, their must have been some tension but at the same time if your fighting alongside each other their is going to at least some sense of comradeship.
I was always interested in that too
No. We grew up with blacks
They 80% of the population
Used to this.
They the blacks where defending their home
We where good at splitting the various groups
Take Rhodesia Ndebele versus Shona
Take the Mozambique civil war
They where often used as expert trackers
Jesus bless you
GALIL best weapon.
No its the R4 and the R5
