The Somalian army's heavy equipment (tanks, artillery and such) was destoryed through air strikes and ground combat and the door was left open so to say. So it was cheaper to dig up old weapons and hand them off to locals to fight Ethiopian T-55s backed with MiG-23BNs, MiG-21MFs, F-5A/Es, Mi-24As and heavy artillery. With the influx of Soviet aid during the Ogaden war the Ethiopian arm became the largest in Africa. Before the war it is noteworthy that Ethiopia was an American ally and Somalia was in team Russia but during the war it switched. Ethiopia won.

Pictures like that in a way did lead to say Blackhawk down...
Somalia has been called the gun running capital of the world. If it shoots or explodes then it's available for sale somewhere in Mogadishu.

Almost makes me want to pay 20.00 American for an AK47 in South Africa and then go to the "black sea" for some WW2 firearm shopping.

Blame it all on pictures like that. After their army was defeated so badly that they armed the population which soon turned againist their government. The Ogaden war is one of the defining moments in Somalian history hell probably the most important in the last 40-50 years there.

"Almost makes me want to pay 20.00 American for an AK47 in South Africa and then go to the "black sea" for some WW2 firearm shopping."

Sounds like a plan...

Lulldapull,
You have a great sense of humour. You are wasting your time in engineering (i think thats what you are doing). You will be a hit in the media/advt industry.

The man's got good taste about which women he'd rather be kidnapped at gunpoint by, tied up, and maybe kicked in the face for saying something ungentlemanly to her.

That's pretty much the way I pictured Lull to look like, excluding the American Flag as a backdrop.
