Oh so all of a sudden somebody got the idea to start taping videos?
*sniff the air*
Do you perceive it?

Scam!

This propaganda will not work....
Throwig bombs in random forests claiming to have killed terrorists will not work...
The military need to.focus its fire power and stop looking for support from the same bloody civilians they brutalise at every slightest opportunity....
Everybody has a job.....

Military operations should be covert and only revealed when kill is confirmed.....
You are announcing to the whole world that you now hav jets...what do you think boko haram will do? Come out in plain sight? Keep hiding in the forest?

Keep your enemy clueless about your weapons.....that way you have the element of surprise on your side....

People who are difficult to please often imagine that this is due to their exacting standards but it is often due to their inability to comprehend clear evidence before them.

The report states that this was a night exercise meaning the footage is night vision camera from a plane thousands of feet in the air, yet some people want it in dstv standard HD! My goodness.

Another person says there is no evidence of dead bodies. What? From an air strike. Has the USAF or RAF ever shown footage of dead bodies from their airstrikes? Footage comes from the enemy on the ground usually in an effort to whip up public sympathy. The lack of such evidence clearly shows this was an accurate, precise strike based on high quality intelligence.

Another person complains that only one missile was fired! Yikes do you know the cost of one guided BVR missile? This isn't computer gaming.

In my view, when in doubt, keep quiet. This type of intellectual streaking and nudity is unnecessary.

The NAF must be laughing their heads off at the comments here. At least they've provided some of us with some early morning comedy. Get with the program. Nigeria can now do accurate, night missions. Why this should upset you is quite a mystery.

This is one of the reasons government always wins at the end of the day, I pity the boko haram dudes and scavengers, they have forced the hand of the government to start using air strikes, things would be very bloody for these criminals in the coming months.



Oga so you don't recognise lies when you see one? How did they count the dead bodies and even know shekau was there too?

Exact 300?? So the NA came down to count the deceased insurgencies ?? You people are madddddddddddd!
Lol you don't know how Military work, Before they carried out an airstrike, There will also be battalion of ground soldiers on ground and immediately after they launch the airstrike the ground soldiers will also attack them immediately. The airstrike was just to disorganize them to give way for the ground soldier. So you think after the airstrike the soldiers will just back off?

Common internet fanboy. That was carried out with rockets. The videos shows that Op was carried out by a Mi-17. I didn't watch your videos however such huge explosion was definitely carried out by F16 or USN hornet. So your point is invalid. You do not expect a fighter jet equipped with guided bombs to have same damage capability as the Mi-17.

You didn't watch any of the videos i posted yet you rushed to respond to my comments without addressing any of the issues i raised after watching the video that was posted which failed to show the alleged injured shakau along the with 300 dead insurgents?

Are you by chance insinuating that your purported Mi-17 failed to capture any visible imagery of the attacks it carried out while playing symphony during its mission?

Here is another video of an attack carried out by an Mi-17 dropping bombs on its targeted area without any musical background unlike the video you are holding brief for. You can also come up with another thesis on why this is different and pls, watch these videos before commenting based on assumptions.

As long as this propaganda is keeping Boko Haram boys and militants at bay, preventing them from killing like in the past, it is a welcome propaganda and the one that must be sustained.

I don't care what your conspiracy theory is, all what I know is that Boko boys capability has been decimated greatly and our soldiers are no longer run away from Boko elements. There was a time that their Tigers were being led by a sheep, but not anymore.

Re: VIDEO: The Air Strikes That Wounded Shekau, Killed 300 Insurgents by Cannonleo(m): 9:27am On Aug 24, 2016
let me explain some things to individuals on this thread especially about those complaining about video quality.

I for one am not impressed with the pr of the airforce basically the whole story is stupid.

but considering the strike, the real time imaging was provided by an alenia ATR - ISR( identification, survelliance and reconnaissance aircraft flying alongside the hinds, the TV operator operated black ND white thermal imaging mode which I repeat is the standard mode for monitoring strikes inbound on targets.

no aircraft on air to ground missions or recon would switch to full colour mode (duplex mode) you would only blind yourself to the details and enjoy the scenery, also I suspect the strike was carried our LatE afternoon hence the need to switch to the mode.

check all strike capable platforms such as the f-16 ,f18,su27 etc, their flir(forward infrared pods TV are always on thermal imaging) when they want to paint,lock and hit a ground target. so the complaint about 3d or 2d imaging is unfounded, it is like telling me that because there is pixel efficiency NIght vision goggles should jettison its thermal /green imaging when you know how colour feels in the dark.

also I commend the airforce for improving it's net centric capabilities, synchronizing target acquisition, relay and guidance to the blind MI 17 hind gunships is a good way to start considering the state we were before Jonathan's administration(an admin I give cudos for the remodification of the military despite the thieving TLOs) this provides a test bed for new platforms which I hope would make its way in (jf 17 thunders I don wait tire)

summary: the political,propaganda value is very useless, the video quality for a flir pod on and isr aircraft is normal and enables detail Id forget 3d at this point, net centric capabilities on a basic level has been achieved . NAF should not make itself an offshot of the useless apc

But, but, but we want. We want . We INSIST on seeing the virgin hunters getting blown up in slow motion, HIGH DEFINITION COLOR, and at close range, just like in the Hollywood movies that provided our basic military training. Additionally, the targeted terrorists must clearly identify themselves in very close proximity to the camera by holding up their National Identity Cards or drivers' licenses, even while they are in the process of being killed and fragmented by high explosive warheads, so that we the armchair warriors of Nairaland's internet forum can duly update our records, in preparation for the usual post-battle exercise of haughtily complaining about imperfections observed in picture and sound quality of the aerial attack footage.

Furthermore, the The Armchair Warriors' Association of Nairaland Incorporated, (AWANI), does hereby officially DEMAND that the Nigerian military IMMEDIATELY UPGRADE the nation's ENTIRE fleet of fighter jets and helicopter gunships, regardless of cost, in order to match and then exceed the performance capabilities of the US military juggernaut, whose details we have memorized while reading Wikipedia to complete our aerial combat spectators' self-training.

Finally, Nigerian military chief's of staff must all be replaced by Hollywood action movie veterans Chuck Norris, Jackie Chan and of course Sylvester Stallone, who will bring much needed STAR QUALITY to Nigeria's ongoing war against terrorism.
