[ADDED DB v440] quote:
ORIGINAL: emsoy Mark, Maybe we should add the Angolan OOB? The South African OOB is pretty complete but there's no-one to shoot at currently. Would be great if you could help us piece together what's missing for a 1980s scenario, for air, surface and air defences. Thanks! Here is what I was able to glean from Jane's Fighting Ships. It looks likes Angola's navy pretty much collapsed around 1992 or 1993. Since 1993 they have had nothing but a few patrol boats, and I have not been able to find many details on these, but I'll keep looking. According to Wikipedia, "On 5 September 2014, the Angolan Minister of Defence João Manuel Lourenço and Brazil`s Minister of Defence Celso Amorim signed a Memorandum of Understanding as part of Angola`s Naval Power Development Program (PRONAVAL). The MOU specifies that Angola will acquire seven Macaé-class patrol vessel, four to be built in Brazil, and three in Angola. The Brazilian EMGEPRON will have the lead in the project, overseeing the Angolan shipyard and training in addition to overall project management." Information on these will be included below.
