A Nigerian air force Alpha Jet with tail number 466 has gone missing from the radar.

Nigerian defense sources said the jet disappeared from the radar around Adamawa state after it went for routine operations on Friday against Islamist militants Boko Haram, who had been on the rampage in the northeastern parts of Nigeria. The jet is the only known functioning jet engaged in operations against the militants.
The Nigerian defense also said it is also looking for two fighter pilots that were operating the jet when it disappeared from the radar. It is not known if militants shot down the jet.

this is how bloggers support terrorism by misinterpreting defense sources and giving out wrong infomation just for cheap traffic!
DHq said that the jet was the "only jet used during that Konduga operations" not the only operational aircraft used to fight the insurgents!

They airforce currently uses over 40 aircrafts in the war in the north east, including alpha jets, 2 beecraft, 4 C130's , 4 F7-NI, alenia Gtr for intel and handful of different russian made Gunships, i.e Mi- series
