Area_boy: Nigerian Airforce is a joke

Supersonic aircrafts? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

A chinese made jet isnt something to boast about

Dede1:


Shut up your putrid mouth. I guess you derive pleasure by displaying idiocy. The Chengdu Jian-7 with export designation of F-7 is a variant of MIG21. There is nothing modern about an aircraft its maiden flight took place in January, 1966, olodo.

hiroz: Dose of u sayn d govt should attack bh.if d army bomb dem and innocent children are killed,u wil still castigate dem.d case of iraq and pakistan is different because dey had hideouts in mountains away from d citizens.unto d mata at hand dese millitants should be stopped now if not dey wil grow in strength.if u kill one d child wil takeover if u kill anoda d broda wil take over so d islamist millitant have continous supply of foot soldiers

ROSSIKE: How will an illiterate buffoon like you know the first thing about any jets used "to fought" anywhere when your stomach is stuffed with fufu and your brain with foam? Ignorant, worthless dropout.

chuks49: Its time we deploy these jets in our battle against Boko Haram

Thanks for the commendation. It seems to me like the owner or Blogger of/on that site (of which I provided a link to) is either in the Nigerian military or knows quite reliable stuff about the Nigerian military. Most of the pictures out here or at least most of the pictures he can lay his hands on are pictures that may not breach military protocols (I suppose),that's why we probably can see these pictures. On the other hand,like you said they need more modern rifles? They definitely would not display their arsenal or more sophisticated weapons indiscriminately. He said that a special squad of Nigerian air force commandos took off from port-harcourt yesterday in a completely different uniform with their primary weapons being tavor assault rifles (pictured below) but that he couldn't get pictures of them. Another reason why the AK-47 is probably the primary weapon for our regular forces is that it is absolutely rugged & is quite easily maintained especially when going to harsh terrains like the Malian desert North for instance. Another thing is that most (but not all) assault weapons are "close-combat" rifles & that's why they're mostly used by commandos,secret service agents etc & hardly used by regular forces. The AK-47 is efficient,easy to maintain,rugged,can stand almost any weather condition etc & this is probably why it remains the "primary weapon" of our regular forces (this is just my opinion though.)

elopee3000: Super sonic my foot the same ak47 and ak49 nigerian Police and army re selling to naija armbrobbers.anyway i whish gold luck

pappilo:

fujirice: Some of us has resolved NEVER to say anything good about this our beloved country and it is very very sad.

fujirice: Some of us has resolved NEVER to say anything good about this our beloved country and it is very very sad. Omo, France deployed 2,000 whaaat.....!? Or is my eyes deceivin' me? Choi!

Reptyle: Didn't know we had F-7s.

Highly unreliable piece of Chinese technology.

talktimi: nna but wetin concern ak47 and supersonic jet now ?

Mad Cow:


But sadly, the AK-47 has the worst accuracy of all Automatics in its class..

I learnt Nigeria produces the Belgian FN FAL under the license name NR-1. This gun has a higher accuracy than the AK-47, equally just as rugged, a little more complicated to use, but a trained soldier would compensate for that with a higher kill count.

The M-16 A1 would always be my prefered choice anyday. But I guess for a dessert warfare situation like that of MALI, the Ak-47 would do.

P.S: The Trevor is more suitable for urban combat and close quarter fights, so I wonder how useful it would be in MALI.


Meanwhile, what is the Nigerian Army standard issue rifle?! The FAl or the AK-47?!

imperiouxx:

I'm proud of Nigeria for the fact that they raise to any war call in Africa. About the AK47 with those guys, AK47 range isn't long and that's why Nigeria Police Force uses it. Army uses AR-15 .233 Caliber Semiauto with 30 rounds

Mad Cow:


Nigerian army uses WHAT!!!?!

Haba na!!!!


I have never set my eyes on an AR-15 in the hands of any Nigerian Soldier and I use to almost live in a Military barracks for one whole year! I hope its not the FN FAL that you are mistaking for an AR-15.

The AR-15 is the US army standard issue o!

Mad Cow: [img]http://www.guns.yfa1.ru/eng/image/AR_15.jpg[/img] - AR 15


- AK-47

- FN FAL (Made in Nigeria as NR-1)

Elite Son: Nigerians among first to join French military

Symphony007: My advice to nigeria is keep those high tech warplanes and let france do the bombing. They have the largest fleet second to the u.s and they even sell more military jets abroad than the u.s, if all their bombardment with their state of the art planes has'nt helped alot why waste the few we have. Stick to the troops nigeria!!
