rudebouy: Nice observation But this is not a James Bond movie, but reality. And if you know little about combat, you know that once in a combat position, they'll move in formations. When one formation moves, another one covers. That's how they'll progress into enemy territory. Moreover, a copper may also clear their path ahead. 4 Likes |

Dats just stupid, what we need are combat Helicopters and gun ships and transport helicopters combing every inch of dat forest day and night providing tactical support for ground troops, but instead one mumu general with a motorcycle dealership wants to move products and make money of Nigeria, tell me in what seriously country would u find motorcycles as either a tactical transport or combat transport? |

ayindejimmy: Thanks for the heads up. But I was thinking beyond just battle formations. What happens when a soldier on motorcycle while running errands or doing some kind of surveillance or just checking out sth around town, encounters a gang of say 3 or 5 terrorists? How does he protect himself then? That means in such instances, that soldier is so very dead. U cant be driving a motorcycle and engage 3 to 5 terrorists at the same time. But a soldier on foot, if smart enough, can take down 3 to 5 terrorists if he encounters them. From ur comment above, it seems the soldiers on motorcycle are only really protected during battle formations and working in groups than working alone? Like I sed earlier, am thinking beyond battle formations. |

nawa for Nigerians o! Some people cant jst find anythng good in whatever anybody does in this country (I think this is what they call bring him down syndrom!). When they made/bought drone, they said na lie, na "pangolo" they acquired! When they got delivery of some equipements, they said na "tokunbo", they said why cant they made their own! Please, humanities, what is wrong in having "motorbike battalion"? Why cant the NA even have "horse riders battalion! Yes I meant it, horseriders battalion, they will be very suitable for moutanious area of Nigeria. 1 Like 1 Share |

rudebouy:Using ur example, a man/men in a vehicle doing surveillance could still easily be "RPDed" by the 2 or 3 enemy soldiers! A bike man can quickly manouver to safety, take a position to study the situation before engagement! The whole thing is about "manouverability" 2 Likes |
Re: The New Nigerian Army Motorcycle Battalion In Action! by sinkhole: 7:40am On Mar 04, 2016 |
archdon:It is very easy to hide from helicopters, very easy to spot and bring down and moreso they are far more expensive! Real live situation is not Hollywood movies, by the way, did you watch "Black Hawk Down"? |

DonBobes: This isn't the matter of "entitle to your own opinion". If I may ask... What you see in the picture, is it right? Giving a gun to someone who isn't into force to hold just because he's a white man and taking a picture with it which he won't give to is country man to hold. Now, that's stúpidity! 4 Likes |

rudebouy: The motorcycle battalion don't drive into battles blindly. They are not for face me I face you fighting. They are for flanking, quick ambush and rapid assault. To think of motorbike warfare as Boko on one side , Nigerian Army on one side is very amateurish. |

DonBobes:First, There isn't a make called AK 84. What you might naively refer to as AK 84 is simply the Chinese built variant of AK 47 called Norinco and the type is 5.56.. NA army mainly use the Russian AK 47 and FN riffles. Also some special forces Tavors. The gun on those bikers are no AK nor Tavors. 1 Like |

welcome development |
Re: The New Nigerian Army Motorcycle Battalion In Action! by mrmetoo1: 8:41am On Mar 04, 2016 |
archdon: Some of you guys just type/talk for the sake of it. Why can't they have this motorcycle battalion with all those you mentioned. What makes you think all that isn't available? Or you think they're all of a sudden going to decommission the helicopters because they now have motorcycles. If you care to read the news and digest you'll realize that ground troops get a lot of support from the air before they go in and clear areas. All this does is just strengthen the army. |

They should take it easy oooo. Its not for stunts but for combat. |
