The military history of South Africa chronicles a vast period and complex events from the dawn of history until the present. It covers civil wars and wars of aggression and self-defence both within and against South Africa. It includes the history of battles fought in the territories of modern South Africa in neighbouring territories, in both world wars, and in modern international conflicts.

Reseach Notes: Video features an Impala Mk II light attack aircraft (also known as the Aermacchi MB-326) of the South African Air Force. The footage is from the Angolan Bush War, specifically an air strike on a Soviet T-34 tank near an Angolan town. The aircraft is taking off from a dirt airstrip, and the event depicted is an air-to-ground attack during the conflict. The T-34 was a less common target for the Impala, as it was a relatively older tank design and less frequently encountered in the border war than more modern Soviet-supplied armoured vehicles.
