It is a hexagram (6 pointed star). It is used in a lot of things, most famously as the Star of David (Jewish religion). It is also used in Islam, Hinduism, occultism, etc.

naptu2: There are various theories about the decline of the Nigerian Air Force which began in the mid 1980s. Here are 3 of them.

1) The "Vatsa Coup": In 1986 some military officers planned to overthrow the government of Ibrahim Babangida. The plot was foiled. It was an amateurish plan that included the bombing of Dodan Barracks and Ikeja Cantonement by the air force.


After this plot, General Babangida decided to ground the air force. No new planes were bought and old planes were not repaired.

2) An air force officer stated that after one of the air force's display at a national event in 1987, General Babangida made enquiries about the strength and capabilities of the air force. He subsequently decided to ground the air force so that it would not be used against him.

3) The nations economy declined after 1982. It became worse after the implementation of the SAP policy began in 1986. The naira was also devalued. This meant that it became difficult to buy new planes and repair old ones. However, it must be stated that the armoured corp grew during this period.

Things got so bad in the mid and late '90s that the air force had to depend on the Alpha Jets as the only remaining combat worthy fighter/bombers.

President Obasanjo came to power in 1999 and decided too sell off the MiG 21s and some of the Jaguars. He also decided to buy Chengdu F7 fighters (basically a Chinese copy of the MiG 21) as a stop gap measure before buying better quality planes.

Unfortunately, we are still at that "stop-gap" point.


Chengdu F-7 Ni

So in essence if we are attacked from the air, we are essentially sitting ducks Or are the soldiers going to point their AK47 at the enemy planes and fire away? What kind of country is this??

naptu2: Nigeria Air Force ("made in Nigeria" ) Air Beetle.


In the late 1980s it was announced that the air force (in association with a private company) had built the first "made in Nigeria" plane. We were excited. Yeah, it's a propeller plane, but at least it's a start.

Then I found out that it's a kit plane.

Air Beetle ke?? Its more like Air Kabukabu. I mean, the contraption looks like a match box, but like Gen Buhari rightly said, at least its a start.

naptu2,
this is a very good thread but it is not getting enough views compared to what it deserves, why not change the thread title every so often until you get a title that will attract man more views.
