Ruto is a go getter. The ex prez was always lazy and liked whisky too much to be a true performer despite being exposed,educated and smart. WTF is he attending ANC conferences? Btw,any rumours of his sobriety at these conferences?

SANDF help recover crashed UN UAV in the DRC

The South African National Defence Force (SANDF) has helped recover a crashed Falco Evo unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operated by the United Nations Stabilisation Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (Monusco).

The aircraft (UN897) came down in Virunga National Park on 4 November but thanks to the deployment of a ballistic parachute, landed with minimal damage.

South African National Defence Force (SANDF) soldiers deployed with Monusco helped recover the aircraft, which was subsequently loaded into a net and transported by a South African Air Force (SAAF) Oryx helicopter back to Beni.

Lieutenant General Marcos de Sá Affonso da Costa, Monusco Force Commander, said on his official Twitter account that he was grateful to the military unit that facilitated the recovery of the aircraft.

“The drone was on a reconnaissance air mission when it developed a mechanical problem,” he stated.

This is not the first time Monusco has lost a Falco – on 20 October 2014, one of the aircraft crashed shortly after takeoff from Goma airport. Another was damaged in mid-January 2014 after it ‘slipped off the runway’.

The United Nations deployed five Falcos to Goma in December 2013 in the organisation’s first UAV deployment. After their first year of operations, they were described as proving themselves useful, giving Monusco a responsive, controlled, and timely source of information, particularly in terms of supplementing the force’s intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance efforts against the illegal activities of armed groups.

Thick forests, rugged terrain and the scarcity of roads on Congo’s eastern border with Rwanda and Uganda have complicated efforts by Monusco to control the area, and the addition of the UAVs means the UN can better monitor remote areas of the DRC and target rebel groups like the M23.

The UAVs have also saved lives – in May 2014, a Falco picked up images of people in danger after a boat capsized in Lake Kivu near Goma. Thanks to the alert, UN peacekeepers were able to intervene and 14 people were rescued, although at least one died.

The Falco is an unarmed, medium-altitude, medium-endurance UAV able to operate from semi-prepared airstrips. The aircraft has a range of 250 km which can be extended via optional upgrades.

The UAV has a 490 kg maximum take-off weight, including a 70 kg payload, and an operating endurance of up to 14 hours.

The larger Falco Evo, which first flew in 2018, has a payload capacity of up to 100 kg and an extended endurance of up to 18 hours. The Falco Evo replaced the smaller Falco in the DRC in 2019. Since 2018, the Evo has also been flying in Europe, supporting maritime surveillance, beginning with the European Frontex mission. Over 60 Falco UAVs are in operation around the world, according to manufacturer Leonardo (previously Selex).

In 2015, Nigeria spent N4.9bn importing military gears and uniforms from Turkiye and elsewhere. In 2019,President Muhammadu Buhari invited the Turkish company to build a factory here in collaboration with DICON in Kaduna to produce 1.2m military gears annually. Here’s the result.

Before this new factory was built in Kaduna, existing military factories were revived to boost production locally in line with Executive Order 03 by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Russia seems to be taking heavy losses

This video shows, imo, why drones are much more important than fighter jets. The Russians are under constant surveillance which allows Ukraine to counterattack

Because fighter jets are evolving. The days of dogfighting are gone. Now you have to kill before you are located. Stealth and advanced weaponry and targeting is more important than maneuvering.

PRESS RELEASE

INSECURITY: IGP ACQUIRES, DEPLOYS 3 ASISGUARD SONGAR ARMED DRONES TO STRATEGIC LOCATIONS



The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba has acquired three (3) high-powered Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for improved armed surveillance operations to checkmate criminal activities in the country as a further manifestation of the IGP's determination to integrate the use of innovative technology in the law enforcement duties of the Nigeria Police Force.

The newly acquired drones will surely assist the Police in monitoring active crime scenes, coordinating response operations, and providing armed aerial support to officers on reconnaissance operations.

The 3 newly acquired UAVs are rotary wing aircrafts capable of flying up to an altitude of 1000ft with high operational endurance and capacity of firing at acquired threats and targets from reasonable distances. The Nigeria Police Airwing has equally concluded trainings for the operators of the drones in partnership with foreign experts who have been consulted for trainings and maintenance of the drones.

The IGP has directed the immediate, and strategic deployment of these drones based on necessity, while noting that three (3) more UAVs of the same specifications are still expected at the shortest possible time.

The IGP while reiterating the constant deployment and judicious use of the drones, ordered total clamp down on non state actors and criminals in Nigeria, and similarly warned criminal elements across the country to steer clear and turn a new leaf else the environment would not be conducive for them, and they may meet their waterloo soonest.

The Inspector-General of Police has further re-emphasized the firm determination of his administration to continue to explore the use of technology in the fight against crime and criminality while seeking full cooperation from members of the public on intelligence gathering and vigilance.

It makes sense that Saffer thieves would go to the farms on Lesotho border, cut the border fence and herd livestock to Lesotho!
Higher grade logic that's beyond us mere mortals' comprehension!
And of course, when they are apprehended, charges of illegal entry into SA are added to stock theft, just for shits and giggles!

While the police is cleaning up, especially with the current name & shame, I agree with your concerns.

In the same Vien it is important that the Nigeria police adapts to the use of modern technologies.

They shouldn't be left out, as they are the first line of defense.

True. It's long due for them to step up

But for a country where not too long ago we had to protest vigorously to close down a rogue unit.

I don't want to imagine some corrupt ones using this tech for under G

I hope the Ministry of Justice at least develop some framework for it's employment in an armed role

I called BS on that crap you wrote blaming it on illegal immigrants. Farm attacks are a regular thing in SA and there's absolutely nothing of evidence that is being carried out by immigrants. You're the one who needs a little logic. Shit faced clown.
