They are all the same. Ammanpour of CNN is a war monger, and the Network is a known Pentagon propaganda tool. They are the RT of the US or CCTV. Aljazeera is known terrorist, Islamic fundamentalist channel, this Network refers to Boko-Haram terrorists as Rebels. BBC is simply confused. DW, France24 are pretty much insignificant. Nobody cares about Fox or MSNBC.

CNN, RT, CCTV are the exact same thing. Government propaganda tools.

Tunisia getting more Black Hawks, ScanEagle support


Sikorsky has been awarded a $38 million contract to provide another four Black Hawk helicopters to Tunisia, which will also be the recipient of a nearly $10 million contract to support its ScanEagle unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Sikorsky Aircraft was awarded a $38.4 million modification foreign military sales contract for four UH-60M uniquely modified aircraft in support of the Tunisian Ministry of National Defense, the US Department of Defence announced on 28 September. The work will have an estimated completion date of 30 April 2020.

An initial $3 838 600 was released from fiscal year 2016 other funds at the time of the contract award.

In July 2014 it emerged that Tunisia had requested 12 UH-60Ms but with recent contracts the North African country will receive now 16 Black Hawks.

In July last year the US Army has announced a $79.7 million contract to be executed by Sikorsky for four modified UH60M black Hawk helicopters for Tunisia. The contract followed the approval, in March 2015, of eight similar rotary-winged aircraft for the North African country under a $93.3 million contract.

All told the deal, including equipment, parts, training and logistic support, is estimated at $700 million for the first 12 helicopters.

The UH-60M Black Hawk variant Tunisia will receive is the most advanced model of the UH-60/S-70 series, and can be armed with rockets and missiles. The first eight helicopters Tunisia will get will be in a green (unmodified) configuration but Tunisia has requested Battlehawk kits to effectively turn the aircraft into attack helicopters. As part of the deal Tunisia will get 24 7.62 mm M134 Miniguns, 24 12.7 mm (.50 inch) GAU-19 Gatling guns, 20 M299 Hellfire missile pods and 24 70 mm Hydra rocket pods with 9 100 Hydra rockets and 100 AGM-114R Hellfire missiles.

Other equipment will include 15 Wescam MX-15Di or Brite Star II electro-optical/infrared designators and 30 AN/AVS-9 night-vision goggles. The countermeasures suite is to comprise AN/APR-39A(V)4 radar warning receivers, AN/AAR-57 missile warning systems, and AN/AVR-2B(V)1 laser warning systems.

The Black Hawks will be used in border patrol, rapid reaction and medevac taskings to support both Tunisian air and ground forces in counter-terrorism and border security operations.

The Tunisian military has been fighting militant groups allied to al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) since 2012.

The US Department of Defence also last month issued a contract for equipment to support Tunisian ScanEagles. The $9 802 042 contract, announced on 29 September, was awarded to Insitu and is for the procurement of launch and recovery equipment, spares, support equipment, and support services for the ScanEagle unmanned aircraft system for the government of Tunisia Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Services Programme. Half the work will be performed in Bizerte, Tunisia, 40% in the United States and the rest in Beja, Tunisia, and is expected to be completed in September 2017.

In July this year Insitu was awarded a contract for a single ScanEagle UAV system for Tunisia. Tunisia’s Navy is an existing operator of the ScanEagle, operating an unknown number of the type.

Wow. Very impressive. It's good to see our guys learn from the best in the art of marksmanship. Thanks. Though not really an american fanboy. The Canadians do have a lot to offer our military in counter insurgency.

FG REDUCES PRESIDENTIAL AIR FLEET, RELEASES 2 HELICOPTERS TO NAF
The Nigerian Air Force has acquired 2 additional helicopters as part of the efforts to boost its fleet and operational capability. The Agusta Westland 101 helicopters were donated to the NAF by the Presidency as part of the on-going effort by the Federal Government to reduce the cost of governance, including the running of the Presidential Air Fleet. The executive helicopters are designed for VIP transportation and are equipped with ballistic defence capabilities and defensive aid suites.
The National Security Adviser (NSA), Maj Gen Babagana Monguno (retired) handed over the helicopters to the NAF at a ceremony held in Abuja. Speaking at the occasion, the NSA stated that Mr President approved the release of the versatile platforms meant for his comfort to enhance the airlift capacity of the NAF to strengthen the efforts of the on-going campaign against insurgency in different parts of the country. With respect to the significance of the event, the Honourable Minister of Defence, Muhammad Mansur Dan-Ali, while receiving the helicopters on behalf of the NAF, noted that the coming of the helicopters would help to foster the war against terrorism, insurgency and other forms of criminalities across the nation.
The helicopters, according to the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Mshl Sadique Abubakar, would be reconfigured for tactical airlift of troops and logistics in support of combat operations. The CAS, in his acceptance speech, stated that the NAF has contacted the manufacturer of the helicopter and plans have been put in place to reconfigure one of the helicopters as air ambulance, and the other as a troop carrier.
It would be recalled that the Presidency in 2015 had earlier released one Agusta Westland 109 helicopter and one King Air Beechcraft aircraft to the NAF as part of the effort to downsize the Presidential Air Fleet. Furthermore, the FG is at the verge of selling one Falcon 7X and Hawker 4000 aircraft.

MAIDUGURI – The Nigerian Army yesterday commended the Nigerian media for its objectivity in the coverage of the ongoing counter-insurgency operations in the North-East.

The Commandant of the Nigerian Army School of Public Relations and Information, Col. John Agim, made the commendation while speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Maiduguri.

Agim said that the media had played great role in disseminating accurate information to Nigerians on the successes recorded by the military on the operations against Boko Haram.

“I think that the Nigerian media has lived up to expectation in keeping Nigerians abreast on the military operations in the North-East.

“When we arrived Maiduguri, we were surprised that there is peace everywhere, contrary to the belief in many areas.

“I think that the media has a lot of job to do in letting Nigerians and the whole world know that peace has returned here, because outside there many people do not know,” he said.

Ajim added that genuine investors would return to the state when they became aware of the restoration of peace to the troubled zone.

The commander, who led members of the Senior Course on Strategic Communication of the school on tour of the state, said the visit was aimed at getting first-hand information on the military operations in the state.

“The Nigerian Army School of Public Relations and Information is the one that drives the information sector of the Nigerian Army.

“For the course to achieve its aim we need to be on ground in one of the areas the army is carrying out operations to get first-hand information,” he said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the team also paid courtesy visits to Governor Kashim Shettima and the Shehu of Borno, Alhaji Abubakar Ibn Garbai.
