Low flying Cheetah...during the war in Angola pilots sometimes had to fly extremely close to the ground to avoid Angolan (Russian made) radar and SAM's....
Just to maybe correct you on the Cheetah's in Angola ....Cheetah's never flew in the Angolan war. The Mirage F1 and Impala's did all the work there. Cheetah E's were used as round the clock home defence and there were always 2 Cheetah E's on the 24 hou readyness alert. and they were based at Pietersburg AFB. Although a very nice pic, that is not a Cheetah in Angola flying low, you will also see the landing gear extracted, That bird is either landing or taking off.

that's almost a 99% NO. No new funds have been put forward for any new work on the Rooivalk (except for general maintenance) International politics has basically killed this brilliant South African product.
