IN BIAFRA AFRICA DIED :
Nigeria and the spirit of Biafra
.
Last week, the Nigeria Army took delivery of five MFI-15 Safari trainer aircrafts from Pakistan. The MFI-15 were made by Saab of Sweden. If I tell you the story of MFI-15 aircraft you will either laugh or be in shock.
.
In May 1969, the Biafran Airforce engineers, with the help of a Swedish mercenary called Carl Gustaf von Rosen, converted Swedish built Malmő MFI-9 civilian trainer aircrafts into what they called MiniCOINS - Miniature Counter Insurgency. They were popularly called Biafran Babies, with capacity to carry significant loads of ordinance.
.
The converted airplanes were effective. They were uaed by the Biafran Airforce to strike Nigerian airfield at Port Harcourt, Enugu, Benin and even Lagos, destroying some number of Nigeriia's expensive MiG-17s and Ilyushin II-28s.
The success of the Biafran Babes evoked the interest of the original manufacturers.
The first MFI-15, developed from the Biafran design, had its first flight on the 26th of February, 1971.
.
That was how MFI-15, the aircraft that Nigeria imported from Pakistan last week, was born. The Swedish made CDK are assembled in Pakistan as the Mushshak.
.
The first and second pictures are Carl von Rosen about to take off in the Biafran Baby. The third picture is one the MFI-15 Nigeria imported from Pakistan. The fourth picture shows the five MFI-9 of the Biafran Air Force at Uli, 1969, while the fifth picture is the five MFI-15 Nigerian Airforce imported from Pakistan in 2018.
.
What Biafra made in 1969 under war conditions, Nigeria is importing from Pakistan in peace time, 2018.
.
Now you may laugh or be in shock.

Give INNOSON more years and support...a group of scientists will be able to do that again...

...but I doubt the FG will support them unless they move the industry to Kaduna-Abuja axis...

...did you also add the modular refineries used by the Biafrans during the war?

...end of Biafra is truly the end of African dream
