Operation Savannah was the South African code name for their military incursion into Angola in 1975–1976. It was part of the South African Border War and arose due to the Angolan War of Independence. The operation also materially influenced the subsequent Angolan Civil War. South African forces invaded deep into Angola with the objective of driving the MPLA, Soviet and Cuban forces out of southern Angola so as to strengthen the position of UNITA, the main opponent of the MPLA and an ally of South Africa.

rdfs:comment	El 14 de octubre de 1975 Sudáfrica sigilosamente da inicio a la invasión por la parte sur de Angola. La llamada Operación Savannah iniciaría un conflicto que involucraria a más actores internacionales. El 8 de noviembre comienzan a llegar las tropas cubanas, armadas poco después con tanques T-34-85 y T-55, artillería y aviación, que detienen al SADF y lo derrotan en varios choques, hasta que son totalmente expulsados de Angola.

(en) A Operação Savana, conhecida pelo lado angolano como Invasão Sul-Africana de 1975-1976 e Campanha para Conquista de Luanda, foi uma intervenção militar realizada pela Força de Defesa da África do Sul em 1975-1976 no âmbito da Guerra sul-africana na fronteira, da Guerra de Independência de Angola e da subsequente Guerra Civil Angolana. A operação também serviu para dar terreno e fortalecer a UNITA, que seria o principal rival do MPLA na guerra civil que iniciava, sendo também o grande ponto de inflexão da FNLA, que ficou desestabilizada.
