Adminisher:


That is not even a sniper working in Nigeria, Niger or Chad. The camouflage would be woven Savannah not green forest

MikeCZA:
The video where they are taking cover behind some road during contact. Then suddenly someone supposedly a section commander orders his men to engage the enemy behind them?

DEATHMACHINE:
at least the regulars don't find themselves engaging hostiles 5 vs 70 and still triumph,name a greater suicide than this Oga.

The video is fake ...BH won't ambush them unless they were sure of victory, Then None of the soldiers suffers casualties...It's propaganda as usual.

Henry240:


It's the OPs Core FAST helmet, the Mich2000 doesn't have that signature "foam like" stuff on it, unlike the Ops core.

ocelot2006:


Image 1: FAST
Image 2: Mich2000

Those Naval operators are wearing the later. It's probably a new addition

Henry240:


You surely didn't need to reply him. We virtually ignored him because he was looking at derailing the thread. Not needed!

Wingback:
Giant of Africa, look at how skinny the troops are.

Henry240:


I have not forgotten. I also agree with the part in bold. However, I find the fact that you're trying to rewrite history as irresponsible.


Anybody reading your comment would think Turkey is new to NATO, whereas Turkey along 13 other countries are the founding members of NATO. Turkey joined the alliance in 1952, that's 64 years ago.


Turkish tactics represent the tactics of NATO, this is an undeniable fact. They are the second largest NATO member and one of the founding fathers.


My WWII correlation was simply to show that the US conscripts just as much as Turkey. You think if the US were to engage in battle with Russia or China, there won't be conscription?

1stly, this is an old picture.
2ndly,Most people/soldiers of Northern Nigerian extraction are asthenic in body structure
3rdly, they are obviously not on holidays in Sambisa
4thly, what is your sample size and confidence interval for this point you are trying to raise?
Lastly, what exactly is your objective in raising this obfuscating argument which basically has no point.
Short of mischief

As much as we like abusing the Nigerian army- they do have their shortcomings, like every other army
I think they have given a very good account of themselves in this Boko haram war.
They should equally be praised in good measure

Henry240:
the Leo has performed completely hopelessly in Syria. When we compare the Leo2A4 against the T-72B in Syria, the T-72B has performed flawlessly.


The conflict in Syria proves my point yet again, expensive doesn't mean effective. I'm sure the Leo2A4 is at least double the price of the T-72B or T-90.

Patchesagain:


Your bias is blinding you, it is allowing you to say idiotic things

Henry240:


You can take this argument to the technical discussion thread.

Henry240:


There's absolutely no reason whatsoever for you to reply him at all. All you have done is to take this thread into a trajectory for it to be wrecked.


It makes no sense.

Henry, free me.

You leave the person wey dey make moronic statement, come dey disturb me wey dey sip my Moet for yonder.
