Nigeria Army special forces unit used to be behind their colleagues in the Navy (SBS) and Air force (QRF) elite tactical units in terms gear and weaponry

The SBS elite tactical navy unit along side QRF use TAVOR assault rifle TAR as standard issued ops rifle and mostly look highly professional due to the combat tactical gears the carry Infact the BBC I believe liken the SBS to the US Navy SEALS during operations flintlock in chad while the Army special forces unit use AK47, Even do the are deadly and professional but their appearance speaks differently, These is attributed to NA lack modernization until the White boys but things are now changing for Good.
Recent pictures have shown new NA SF units with highly professional looks, Their gears comparable with peers in the Western Nations, The have adopted new variants of AK series including the polish beryl rifle which the NA is also introducing.
thumps up to NA
VICTORY IS FROM GOD ALONE





NB Seun can we have a DEFENCE section on Nairaland thanks inadvance for considering this appeal

I hope they will not abandon modern combat techniques and resort to sabotaging of farm lands and shooting innocent young boys and women when they face a formidable opponent who is smarter, more intelligent and faster than them.

buhari pay this boys wella they are really working hard

Hard work doesn't pay much just Smart work.

Back to topic, I think they have a dedicated 72SF Battalion in Markurdi. They should just upgrade their trainings and gears. I admire the patriotic individuals in the armed forces just the bureaucrats leading them that I dislike.

strike force unit is design to pursue n hunt the enemy with deadly force

SF are tactical units required for specialized deadly ops mostly covert

72 Special Forces Infantry Battalion Markurdi, I never mentioned Strike Force. I know Counter Force comprises men from different formations who just wish to go for that 6months special training and they call them Strike Force.

Correct me if am wrong though. My suggestion is to strictly upgrade those guys in 72. Take them to the counter force training and recruit covert operators from there. It's like having a pool of well trained soldiers. Already most of them undergo the airborne course so just move the program.

It was long over due sef

SF dress base on ops/Event

Elite tactical units are vital even after the military phrase of COIN to follow up on Intel even if the enemy is outside Nigeria
