NAF SIGNS MoU WITH PORTUGAL ON LOCAL PRODUCTION OF UAV

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the UAVision of Portugal. The MoU is aimed at enhancing existing collaboration between NAF and UAVision of Portugal for local production of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in Nigeria. It is pertinent to note that the discussion that led to the signing of today’s agreement actually began few months ago. Already, the collaboration had led to production of 4 UAVs prototypes with 2 each produced in Nigeria and Portugal.
Meanwhile, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Mshl Sadique Abubakar has expressed the optimism that the locally produced UAVs would be commissioned before the end of October 2016. The CAS, further in his speech, identified other areas of possible collaboration with Portugal to include tactical flying training for NAF pilot and aircraft maintenance, stating that the essence of the collaboration is to exploit every areas of Portuguese technological development with a view to taking the NAF to the next level.
Prominent among the Portuguese delegation are Portuguese Ambassador to Nigeria, His Excellency Antonio Pedro Rodrigues da Silva and the representative of UAVision, Engr Nuno Simeon.

Nice one. Hope we will learn and carry-on from where they will stop. It shouldn't be about training pilots and aircraft maintenance alone, let them include Proper local manufacturing and assembling of those things too, because they were not mentioned in the report.

Nice one!

So what happened to the Chinese ? Why are we not in partnership with some of their UAV manufactures or buying some of their top UAV, which the Chinese are very willing to sell us ? Are we being threatened by the Americans?

Ignorance is a disease my friend. Before the recession even the GDP for lagos was above that of portugal. Portugal is on the brink of recession and should have gone under years ago if not for the EU.
Guy my advice to peeps like u who don't look beyond certain statements is "pele, e go beta. Ur ignorance may be a disease but thats why u got us.tp show u the light". U can thank me later.
