For Africa's largest economy, largest military force, and world's 24th largest economy, I am disappointed in this list.

Ceasefire, ok?
But its annoying that we were the same ones complaining that this BH crisis caught the military unawares in terms of equipment and combat readiness. Now why will you complain about acquiring modern fighter jets? Eqypt has hundreds of capable fighter aircrafts spread across various variants. Nigeria has less than 10. Don't we deserve better?

cos you don't need jets to fight insurgents. 1 jet costs 30 million dollars which can buy 30 Armed propeller planes or helicopters. or even drones. I haven't talked of pilot training, fuel, repairs, maintenance .Egypt and Nigeria don't have the Same budget. don't compare yourself with countries that are beyond us in GDP per capita. fighter jet is not our most pressing problem. there are cheaper more effective solutions
