BOKOHARAM; NAF Takes Delivery Of State Of The Art Mi-35m Attack Helicopters by ememonl(m): 10:09pm On Sep 07, 2014
In this one-of-a-kind photo which was shot on Friday 29th August, 2014 and posted originally and exclusively on BEEGEAGLE’S BLOG, a freshly delivered Mi-35M attack helicopter can be seen being unloaded from a giant Antonov cargo plane at a location in northern Nigeria (details withheld by me for security reasons). This is the only photo of this mean machine in cyberspace as I write this…a true global exclusive.

The roundel of the NAF is visible on this side towards the tail end and of course, it is the only MiL attack helicopter of the NAF thus far pictured in desert camouflage colour scheme. Its special adaptations are visible from here.

Congratulations to the NAF….Africa’s first PROVEN (not merely claiming) user of the Mi-35M.

BEEGEAGLE’S BLOG…our authoritative edge and integrity shall be continually reinforced.

Interesting comments by NAF Personnels; (These guys are fun sha)

THIS is the way to go…precisely what we should be doing now instead of rambling ad infinitum about competing demands

*To be honest I really hope shekau and his goons have prepared to meet their virgins because the Airforce has decided to buy them a first class one way no return ticket

Oga Are James. I respect your hustle sir.
Chooii, i agree 1000% with that chain of thought oga. We already have numerous pilots and technicians on this platform. Repairs and overhauls to a certain extent are already done in house. Couple this with the numerous man hours on the American Civilian and military Bell range of helicopters, i guess we can satisfy both ends of the spectrum, people who dont want us to lean too far east, neither west. Oga we don start military industry be that ohh.

We need way more than the few that have been ordered. To help our soldiers whenever and where ever they are pinned down by BH, the Mi attack helicopters have to attack in large numbers, carry lots of munitions and be equipped for night fighting. They are far more accurate than the Alpha jets and far easier and flexible to deploy. They also have a longer loiter time over the battlefield.

That is maybe 6 or more chopper pilots on call day in day out, housed in specialised crew rooms, briefing rooms all ready, ground support staff, weapon loaders and technicians on 24hour standby. You can’t help but come away with some appreciation and thanks for the efforts of the men doing the actual work.

*Oh well, kudos to NAF.

And behold ‘Ye shall pray for mercy and none will be given. For on that day, the god of the terrorists was but nowhere to be seen, for they cut themselves, and tore their clothes, and fired their rust RPGs, their AA guns and shouted the name of their god. But no one answered. And the god of the sky hovered above them, its rotors whined with vengeance, its canons spoke no word but fire issued forth from his sides and burned the people of Boko for their prayer was Haram to the sound of his wrath. And he spoke to them from the belly of the sky, his wings decked in the livery of NAF.
As they ran and cried for mercy, he pursued them to their holes, in their camps, he smote them, he cut them down one after the other until there was none left to pray to the god of IEDs.
These prophecies were written in the scroll of NAF

The desert cameo makes it a little confusing. Makes it look like the old MI 24V we had before that was painted in the same pattern. I think it is just the colour thing, trust me it is a MI 35M.

The canons in front have been removed obviously to protect them from damage during offloading.

Kobogoat, I know you are doing your job. But can you for once use your sense? When you see a post, read, think and use your Common sense and not the one given to you by APC before responding to post instead of displaying your foolishness here every minute, when ihejirika was dealing with the boko are rams boys, your party men in connivance Borno elders cried genocide, your God Buhari was shouting and, hell Rufai said they are freedom fighters. Now you are here shouting again, what exactly is your problem?
