CH-3 was a total failure,i have seen a boko haram propaganda video which showed smoldering wreckage of CH-3.Its just that nairaland doesnt allow one to post terrorist propaganda.except for that one footage of a precision strike on a boko haram technical,have you ever seen any other released footage !?the only thing your good at is dropping dumb bombs on civilians,even you say you have ISR manned platforms

Don't be a coward dodging the truth. ISR wasn't present when the bombs were dropped on the civilians. Moreover, yes we had one CH3 crashed and not brought down by BHT. Don't cover up with posting terrorist propaganda video or pictures as you've done that or written about that at times here. Your God father USAF has bombed civilians locations even with a guided bomb and 4th generation aircrafts mistakenly.

Don't start pissing off the thread. We at least have other CH3 moved to maiduguri currently flying recon so don't tell me CH3 is a total failure. We can also deploy aircrafts when needed by our troops.

Don't start that rubbish comparisons again and post on topic.

If he post terrorist propaganda in this thread, he'll get a massive ban for sure. That I can assure him.

Then there's also the LRAC F1, Denel FT5 man portable launchers

And these are just Air-to-Ground/Surface-Surface missiles used in the Border War

iblawi:


Just ask them the aircraft/platform they used to launch the guided missiles during the border war and this will all end.

Their innovation is the famous Combat Fighting Motorcycle (CFM), popularly known as the Jackal. In the Northwest, cattle rustling bas become a big security threat, with the perpetrators killing and maiming at will. These perpetrators of the crimes often use the motorcycles to get away on rough terrains. So, the engineers at the 35 Battalion remodeled some motorcycles, weaponised them and deployed them in the anti-terror battle.
The CFM was redesigned in such a way that two soldiers could ride on it facing opposite directions with a gun attached.
“The idea is that with these, we can move as fast into any terrain in pursuit of the criminals and terrorists. There are different types – one is fitted with machine gun at the back and others have Ak-47,” Warrant Officer (WO) identified as Salley, explained.
“With these ones, we can follow the cattle rustlers to their villages. Is that that not innovation?”, the minister shouted in excitement.
The COAS said the military has a plan to give at least a battalion of the machines for each Division.
Dan-Ali, who was impressed, told the engineers: “We need to do another; the one with three tires; that one will have more stability.” The men agreed to take up the new challenge.
The CFM, which has been deployed in Kastina and Kano states, has assumed a frightening reputation from criminals.
“We have been very successful with it in Folgore forest in Kano. This is the latest machine all over the world, even the developed countries are praising us over this invention,” Salley boasted.
The Infantry Patrol Vehicle (IPV) with off-road mobility and a crew of three was one of the star attractions at the summit. Weighing 650kg and powered by 150-200 Horse Power Engine, the IPV has a 130 kilometre per hour capacity.
It provides force multiplier and the required flexibility to undertake all tasks across the entire spectrum of military operations, including range fighting, fast action mission, urban and border patrols.
The IPV is fitted with two machine guns and have been deployed in all the theatres of operation.
The Nigerian Army Electrical and Mechanical Engineers have also been ingenious in the modification of Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) for combat operations. One of such is the modification of 4 x4 Hilux Trucks with Peak Cap Turret.
The Peak Cap is mounted on the Hilux and it has 18mm hardened steel and can be modified to carry any gun. It has a mechanical traverse of 360 degrees. The Peak Cap also offers protection up to 30 meters from small arms and 100 meters from machine guns.
There is also the Buratai Overhead Manned Turret (BOMT) which is one of the ugliest weapons but which offers an “all round protection” according to the Army. Weighing one tone, it provides all round observation with the aid of periscopic sights and the plate thickness can give protection for up to 30 meters.
The BOMT invention was necessitated by the delivery of the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicles (MRAPVs) BOMT has been installed on the MRAPVs now being used in the Northeast.
The Nigerian Army Institute of Technology (NAITE) in Markudi, has also invented the unmanned aerial vehicle with two transmitters which can survey human presence and an unmanned drone with transmission capacity up to 100 meters. Though the vehicle and drone have been tested, they are yet to be deployed to the theatre of operation.
Brig.-Gen. Ayo Ibikunle of Nigerian Army Ordinance Corps was modest about his latest invention – the Hand Grenade ASI-17 Smoke (Smoke Grenade).

so you want to tell me the countless of manned ISR platforms you claim you have were not available,when you bombed internally displaced people living in tents in the open(how can someone bomb a refugee camp with more than 1,000 people,killing more than 200 !?) i dont think boko haram shot that CH-3 down,that UCAV just loves gravity

Your argument has always been off point. The jets were deployed immediately they got an intel Of BHT approaching an IDP camp. Tell me during Al shabab attack on your military, you had to wait for manned ISR (that's if you even have one) before engaging the terrorist.

Arguing with you is totally useless. You can't even compare your Air Force to ours. We've effectively used dumb bombs.

On the CH3, we will discuss about it when your Air Force starts operating a UCAV.

Plus there were the elderly ENTAC wire-guided ATGMs in the '70s. I read an article about them in an old issue of Paratus one year.

Mostly mounted on Landys although there were a few experiments with putting them on the Eland 90s and 60s. The concept was derived from a very similar French project to mount missiles on their own AMLs, per the photo below. I suspect it was abandoned due to the fact that the bulky external mounts wouldn't hold up well to all the bundu bashing during external ops, which is the only time they were needed.

The Landys with ENTAC mounts were used during Op Savannah.

so you were attacking approching boko haram but ended up wiping out more than 200 refugees inside a refugee.only a visually impaired person can't I.D more than a thousand people,you effectively use dumb bombs on displaced civilians

I used to think you were wise.
1 An aircraft was sent to take out BHT and not conduct ISR.
2 It was a fighter jet and can't ID ground targets effectively on her own due to onboard avionics.

Dude. NAF admitted responsibility and called it an unfortunate incident.

comeback when Kenya starts using guided bombs or better ISR capability.

Thanks Tdayof, it's a very beautiful vehicle going by the specifications above.

I read a few units have been deployed in service.
