TAVOR is also used by Navy SBS and NAF QRF

Yes, NAVY SBS used it sometime ago. But I don't know if they still use it.

You don't use Bullpups assault rifles in field combat

The IWI Tavor SAR being carried by the Nigerian Naval team is best used in small confined spaces and not in open field.

The German Soldier is operating with the right field range weapon.

No wonder Boko is kicking their azzes

70 percent of their battles were in close confined spaces, please be informed. When a Company goes into a battle it carries an assortment of weapons shared amongst various sections to adapt to changing scenarios typical of assymetric warfare. Typically intel comes in that a group of insurgents are occupying a village. They advance on the village and may engage at distance with more accurate field rifles. They supress the enemy and move in to mop up, house to house. At close quarters the field rifle is clumsy and ineffective, a smaller, handy gun is better. So don't criticise until you have the full picture. In assymetric warfare you need more than one speciality. Our military has found out this at great cost.

With people like you Nigeria will never move forward ; the man you are insulting has raised valid points that a person without any form of military training will clearly point out yet the only response he gets from people like you is insults?

Now, let me ask you if the Nigeria Army has been doing the right things all along; how come they keep losing territories and men to boko haram.

Maybe it's a Nigerian thing. We cannot take criticism even when it is constructive and thats very bad. I guess everyone is expected to be a praise singer, how else can one explain the abusive rebuttals to genuine questions raised.

So true. That's why we switched from the m16 to the m4. M4's are so much better for CQC's. The enemy kept grabbing the m16 barrel because it was too long and you couldn't make quick sharp movements in confined spaces. God, I miss this shiit sometimes.

Maybe its because the special forces are deployed to protect abuja and provide security for the ogas in abuja
The the SS has gradually become a bodyguard unit. You only see them when there are ogas
I Doubt if they do any intelligence work again

In an operation like this, there are snipers embedded in the team. Multi mission teams do exist you know. And how would you know what operation they were carrying out in the joint exercise. Just put down the Nigeria guys for the sake of doing it.

Israeli Tavor is more of a of a personal arm than an assault weapon. It is slightly better than a pistol. Look at distance between trigger and gunsight which is an estimate of range. EKR of Tavor cannot match that of AK 47 or FN currently in use by Nigerian forces. The gun just fine for eye. Good only for internal oppressions rather than tactical objectives.

That is why it is used for confine space operation and not in battle filed.

The IWI Tavor doesn't just come with the short nozzle more suited for urban combat. There's a long nozzled tavor more suitable for field operations, at least so I read.
These are just two variants

I don't tolerate nor accept all condescending opinions laced with hatred and unpatriotism.

The gears can and should be better, but remember this are PEOPLE risking their lives for country, so you wouldn't have to. Give them the respect they deserve.

Got insults to hurl? Hurl them act the ruling class that has failed the military (while not exempting the corrupt military bigwigs).

Besides the Travor is The SBS's standard issue, which is well suited for their primary task: on BOARD COMBAT.
