What navy ship is this ? It's seems like it is also being brought back into service

Henry240:


These reporters need shellacking, they keep on, and on, filming and photographing the Top-Brass instead of the equipment they came there to commission.


From the footage, i keep wondering why the Navy even bothered to purchase those arrow boats. You can see them struggling against the boats from Epenal, who were flying.

jakeporeshenko:

The purchase of those arrow boats from Sri Lanka in such insignificant numbers for high prices while local companies are offering products that are far much better should be one of the most shady things NN has ever done, there is nothing anyone can tell me to convince me that those boats are better than what proforce is offering!

Henry240:


The Type-96B was drifting like crazy in the Tank Biathlon competition. I was ecstatic, beautiful Tank. It goes to show how grueling Tank biathlon is.


I noticed for an MBT, the Type-96 is quite small, when compared to the T-72B3.

All your posts are so immature..this isn't a political.discussion.or KG thread.you're simply usesless here.why not move to the joke.romans or political sections where u can be more usefull.

chinese8107:

The Russian alters the rules ， Type96B is required to added some weight,because the AT transmition is more effective



But T-72 has many second hand in Eastern Europe ,Russia,or Ukraine,they would sell at metal dumpling price,still competitive to many low bugget country.

africaken254:

@ Henry240
But why didn't he mention JF17 thunder and the quantity we are expecting?

He did not talk about the JF-17's. Hope the order is still on?

Henry240:
@Tdayof and @iblawi, the Pakistani Chief of Defence Staff is currently in Nigeria, and he visited our CAS. I'm sure they most have talked about the JF-17s.



So, like we now know, the Pakis are in town, however this isn't the news, the Pakis, Americans, British and Israelis are always in town, in-fact lately the Chinese also.


What is news is, why would the CAS have a model of an aircraft that is not known to be in NAF service in his conference room?


.....Usually, senior chiefs have a replica of an aircraft they have in the country's inventory in their offices. It's a practice done right across the world.



The Nigerian CAS has a replica/model of an armed UAV, a CH-3A in his conference table, as expected. Nothing unusual there.photo 1


However in the preceding photos, we can see a model of a CH-4 UAV, a type not known to be in service. why would the CAS have a model of the CH-4 in his office, except if the CH-4 is in service.


I guess, we can only wait and see if i'm right or wrong.

bidexiii:


The JF -17 is a done deal.

@henry is these the 2014 order.......?

If it his, why are the MI-17terminatorISh not inclusive.

Henry240:


We have seen the MI-17 terminator1SH been delivered. I'll look for the photo and tag you. Atleast we can confirm 1, delivered.


I don't know if these are from 2014, it remains to be seen. However, I remember asking @Zachary999 if the ordered 6x MI-35M were still coming, to which he affirmed.

As it is, i don't know which orders these are, my only concern is they get delivered on schedule.

bidexiii:


Okay.

MI-17terminatir1SH that where delivered where 2nd-hand and they where only two of them.

I stand to be correct, am just trying to figure things out.
