BATTLING INSURGENCY IN THE SAMBISA FOREST

MORE...

bidexiii:
The islamic state of west africa yesterday released some pictures from video shots ; displaying captured weapons and boasting of soldiers they killed.
The army has not yet said anything on the released materials, when,how and how recent it his......?
But from the pictures I think its from the kareto ambush.

From all boko haram propaganda to wage the morale of fighting troops down and to amper the trust of nigerians for our armed forces will be in vain.

Below are picture of the equipment/gears captured from the troops;

Our troops are fighting on and we support our frontline troops 100%

#victory
#support the nigeria armed forces.

Heartbreaking and painful. I hope the bastaerds were all caught and killed.

if it is jf17 bk 1 then expect the deliveries soon
if it is jf17 bk 2 the expect some more delay since it is in the final stages of testing in china
and then it will undergo additional operational testing in pakistan before it goes into production.

But why is the military completely silence over the matter?
Seriously, it's very annoying.

Block 2 is already in production. Pakistani airforce have received over 10 already and their isn't much difference between block 1 and 2

Even Sri Lanka ordered block 2.

sri lanka has officially stated that they are not interested in jf 17

and my sources tell me jf17 bk 2 is in the final stages of testing
integration of the in flight refueling probe has been done and MAWS has also been integrated but undergoing final testing in china and may have ended by now.
pakistani sources tell jf17 bk 2 is in production but chinese sources shows it to be in testing .
kind of confused as to whom to believe.

if bk 2 is delivered quickly then all is good
no problem.

How do you see this.

wot do u expect t,the drunken master in the form of GEJ is no more the Presido.Nigeria only true democrat

Images revealed on Chinese websites on 23 January indicate the Chengdu Aircraft Corporation (CAC) FC-1 export fighter - co-developed with Pakistan Aeronautical Complex, which calls it the JF-17 Thunder - is advancing into a 'Block II' development and reportedly testing new weapons
New images of an FC-1 at the CAC airfield with port number 229 show the first employment of an apparently Chinese-designed aerial refuelling probe: an important feature of the JF-17 Block II version. The probe features a streamlined tube, is located below the aircraft's cockpit canopy frame and may be detachable.

What I mean is having the AEW&C PLUS THE JF17 THUNDER.

That will cover for the radar advantage the gripen has over the JF 17 thunder.

Gej didn't buy them too and the story has not changed either. All we have been hearing is Nigera will buy jf17 thunder and the military has always been mute about it.

ok

Are you Nigerian?

I never said he did. his govt was open

I'm Vexed

I'm terribly Vexed

What continuously annoys me is how quick the Nigerian commanders are to praise the americans

See that commander telling the reporter how they rely on the americans for ISR, thermal imaging over-flight intelligence

Yet the plane flying overhead is obviously Nigerian

They should teach these commanders how to talk and engage the press.

They must learn to embellish themselves and the Nigerian army without getting a rush of blood to the head

Hell will freeze over before the americans praise the NA for the good work they have done so far

I agree with you. I follow quite a number of our special ops guys on Instagram and it was quite sad to hear one say that he didn't know the name of a weapon's system(the Czech made RM-70MRLS) that he was seen posing with. A lot still has to be done in ensuring that our troops are familiar with all the weapons systems

God bless our soldiers

BOKO HARAM TERRORISTS FIGHTERS HAVE NEW UNIFORM



Troops of 22 Brigade Garrison and elements of 3 Battalion that went out on long range fighting patrol yesterday, Monday 25th April 2016, to Gima village in Ngala Local Government Area made a startling discovery; Boko Haram terrorists now have new means of identification. The patrol came in contact with some elements of the Boko Haram that started escaping in disarray on sighting the team. However, they were able to apprehend 2 terrorists in their new styled uniform of green colour and use of ropes on their legs and neck. This is a new development in the ongoing clearance operations of the remnants of the Boko Haram terrorists in the north east.

In addition, the patrol team recovered 1 Isuzu Canter lorry which found concealed with grasses, 5 motorcycles and 2 bags of guniea corn. Other items recovered include 3 Dane guns, a Solar panel, 3 bows and arrows.

The arrested terrorists are currently being interrogated to further assist in the clearance operations.

How god to be back after being hit by the anti-spak button.
Pains you a lot watching people's comment without contributing.....

It was an ambushed they escaped, but trust me they would not last long cos they are being tracked and soon enough they wil fall for the trap.
