As you said, they have no radar and as Patches said, they use an indigenous link system called the LINK-ZA to acquire real-time radar data from supporting radar systems.

An exotic scenario would be, in a shortage of air power (let's say the Gripens are over stretched), a single Gripen can fly with a group of Hawks (even if not in the same formation), the Gripen will be the radar while the Hawks will be the weapon. Also because the Gripen has a built-in Electronic Warfare suit, it can do jamming and tracking simultaneously for the Hawks.

This is a commendably smart way to use aircraft like Hawk or the NAF Alpha Jet. You could actually use them for long range ground attack missions with conformable extra tanks and big bombs. The radar bearing 4th gen combat aircraft track, scan and engage airborne threats while they drop ordnance on targets and leave the area. For the 4th gen aircraft that have comprehensive EW Suites and RWR, the smaller aircraft could conceivably find use as killers of AA batteries if they get coordinates of SAM batteries via data links real time from the bigger 4gen a / craft or AWACS like aircraft in the vicinity

In your head of course and making your life difficult via tutelage that what exists on paper or your videos for your military are not actual realities which have not in modern times been replicated in a real battle situaton which the day you start growing up to grasp will make life easier for you.

"Things that you constantly do in training, are not things you can actually do"

lol, ok.

So what are your credentials?

You are quite the quack. But here since I´m not at liberty to divulge whats secretive however you whine just look at this: see the category of elites Nigeria´s NNSBS play with.

How do you know this "secret" information?

Why did you link me to the Indian SBS?

This guy:

"I know because I am a secret operator, my source for my claims about NNSBS capabilities is based on an artical about Indian SBS"

Covert1:


Indeed. And again I maintain that it is a rare feat the MFF performed by NAFs elite SF Regiment during the NAF day celebrations in low weather at over 10,000 feet above sea level. No not you (you watch too much fiction videos) but any expert can validate or challenge that fact. In addition HAHO/HALO Jumps are performed by SOF elements of Nigeria´s Armed Forces who have undergone advanced Airborne Training.

1. Jumping at 10,000 ft is nothing special. Civilian skydivers do that all the time
2. No one denies that individuals within the Nigerian SOF community are HAHO/HALO qualified.

Congratulations for proving you actually have no idea about everyone was talking about and yet again have completely destroyed what was an interesting and sensible conversation. In so doing, you have humiliated yourself, and made the Nigerian military (whom you claim to represent) seem cartoon-ish.

[s]Again Patch crushed. Accepts defeat. Covert delivered as promised. Now if you have any honor left give the master his due apologies.

To make sure civilians don´t skydive in bad weather. There are health risks involved. Only the Military minded perform such hazards like the NAF Special warfare Operators did in terrible weather at the NAF day celebrations something which is very Special.

As always Covert validated.[/s]

Nothing special about sky-diving from 10,000ft, basic capabilities.

Augustine, all you have done is show us the height of your delusion - claims of being a covert operative, claims of capabilities you cannot prove etc etc etc.

Now, Augustine, we have indulged your nonsense enough. This is not a place for discussions, if you keep de-railing this thread, I assure you that your ban will be substantial.

Patch is running for the shades

How are you people watching this movie

Active: The Nigerian Navy has acquired 179 high speed boats six of which are "Ocean Fast Patrol Brands". It is also increasing its Falcon Eye System from nine to 12 sites in addition to its upgraded Regional Maritime Awareness Capability (RMAC) architecture spread across nine sites including Naval HQ Abuja. The Navy has also adopted a two-pronged approach for procurement: ships & boats are being acquired from foreign countries whilst being complemented with local construction of ships & boats. The Nigeran Navy is also refitting defective NN ships at its Naval dockyards for availability.

My Take: The Navy Chief though secretive but not to be undone by the other service chiefs appear to be working too quietly behind the scenes.
