Not trying to rain on anyone's parade but Alpha jets?.. In this century?!...That sh**t is way older than we..The least we expect by now is the Airforce to have upgraded its fighter fleet even if its third-hand Sukhois and Mig Foxbats....throw in a couple Tupolev Black jack Bombers and we just might be the strongest aerial force in West Africa.

Just mention planes don't care the kinda war they are best suited for, the Warthog is what our airforce need for this kinda battle, stays long in air and can give close combat support at very low altitudes. hoping that Jonathan will chop remain for army.

bombs are being dropped to destroy these Boko Haram terrorists but I feel one of those bombs should be dropped where their leader resides.

Up to date jets cost lots of money.

On another Nairaland thread...some of us were arguing about whether we can buy jets from the US.

By my calculations....buying 10 F-16 fighters from the US would chop 75% of our defence budget....

Then we have to build the housing for the jets, train the crew, etc....

Nigeria cannot afford the really advanced jetfighters.

That is why we should get off oil and go into the industrial production of many things....jet fighters inclusive.

But we can buy 5 instead of 10; buy another 5 the next year . . . and on like that.

Progress>standing still.

OTOH, practically, we'r many years away from manufacturing anything similar to F15s, 16s, raptors, MiGs and e.t.c.

That still chops a large amount of the defence budget....which is not just for the air-force....army and navy too need funding.

Even if it is 1, it is progress, better than the waste and squander going on for decades now.

And military budgets can be adjusted to fit needs. Loans can be sought, all countries do this.

Well...we should have used the oil money better....but even then, based on our defence budget for 2014.....it is still very costly.

Buying American weaponry ain't cheap. Not only do the weapons cost....you also have to spend more money training your people in their use and maintenance. Then.....housing has to be built.

We did buy some jets from the Chinese and the Russians though.

Forget the J-11 what we need is the Su-30, Mig-29, Jf-17 and maybe a bomber, NAF should get at least one bomber, I don't know why no body talks about a bomber
Re: NAF Alpha Jets Conducted Four Airstrikes Against Boko Haram in 24hrs by zizirecords(m): 4:23pm On Mar 04, 2015
Agreed. But that will only happen when the generals and top government officials stop stealing (or is it 'corrupting') the money meant for their purchase. At least, we all agree that the jets aren't too expensive for Nigeria to afford.

It's the Nigerian Military and not only the army. NAF is Air Force and not Army.
jauntty:
Am happy the Nigeria Army is winning the war against Boko Haram.

But it shouldn't end at defeating BH physically...we need to also 'Deradicalize' them and also defeat them ideologically.

The truth is : wrong Ideology, radical belief system and religious extremism are harder to conquer. You can not win a war against Terrorist and religious fanatism with Bullets alone. We need to go a step further


Kudos to our Army.

You are right ooo but we are not at the luxury of purchasing such expensive war jets now due to the present state of the economy. Let's just manage the available but only the sound of the alpha jets kills targets before the red button is pushed *lol*
If we fabricate or manufacture be it anyone, will you agree to fly with if as a pilot because I know that one will be cheaper, though this is for the guy who asked for local made jets *lol*?
