    Thanks my friend, great to hear! Likewise towards Columbia, nothing like an army stomping on criminals' asses and doing a damned fine job at it! (Not to mention with alot of South African weaponry! )

    The Ratel is an awesome vehicle. Their G-6 SPG is also very well built and designed.

    I'm quite a big fan of the Ratel as well. The G-6 sure is a beast, probably won't be battle proven anytimes soon though which is a shame. But South Africa can't really afford to fight any wars besides peacekeeping missions at the moment.
