Nigerian Air-force is not even ashamed rolling out those outdated 1950's 60's jet that are worth nothing at the recycling places. Even a pound of cheap iron is worth more than those jets. There are thousands of these jets in the deserts of Southern Cali and here in Nevada just rusting away in the sun, just sad.

Air support to fight people waging war only with their mouth, as in hate talks? Na wao.
Angelanest:
In line with its commitment to national peace and security, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has deployed some of its air assets, including the Alpha Jet aircraft, to its 115 Special Operations Group in Port Harcourt, to support the ongoing Nigerian Army’s Exercise EGWU EKE II (PYTHON DANCE II). The essence of the deployment is to provide the necessary air cover to the ground troops to enhance overall operational cohesion and efficiency.

It would be recalled the operation began officially on 15 September 2017 and was planned to cover the entire South East Region of the country. The wide expanse of the exercise area and the request by the Nigerian Army for close air support made the involvement of the NAF inevitable.

Exercise EGWU EKE II is aimed at combatting security challenges in the Southeastern part of the country. The deployment of the air assets in support of the Nigerian Army is thus in fulfillment of one of the constitutional mandates of the NAF.

Nigeria has had ENOUGH of the beerfraud blackmail, empty chestbeating and threats.

Finally the FG is being decisive about crushing the terrorist agitators.

Relic or cutting-edge, those birds can rain fire on any miscreants that think they can arm twist the FG into submission.

When Hausa /Fulani people says "that concurred region" everyone in the south should know that Northerners do not see us as equal at all. All these show of Military might is there long time ago planned way of intimidating every southerner into submission to there Supremacy over Extremely Endowed Southerners altogether.
Remember 90% of the Kaki boys all over "Nigeria" are Hausa/Fulani's and 90% of revenue going into the federal revenue account comes from Southern States. So there way to get what does not belongs to them is thru VIOLENCE!

But for how long will all this last?

Are they now indirectly telling us in Yoruba land or that our "Region is yet to be concure through Violence or War" because calling South East as a "Concurred Region" have a grave meaning?

Maybe they will deploy there coveted Hausa Fulani Armies a.k.a "Niheria Army" when it gets to it that Yoruba's no longer Practically want to be part of this Conspiracy call "Nigeria" again. Maybe

Alpha jets in world war 2?

Only 6 types of experimental jet fighters were ever operational in WW2.

World war 2 ended in 1945. The Dassault Alpha jet's first flight was in 1973.

Also, ballistic missiles are not designed to shoot down craft. Surface to Air missiles (SAMs) are used, such as the patriot, slinger, rapier, dvina.

Ballistic missiles, due to their trajectory, are first-strike offensive weapons that shoot straight into space then drop down on their targets in a parabolic arch.

They are not even found in War museums because they have never left any mark on any battle field , most of them have been sold to private hobbyists who want to own a cheap jet for recreational flying

Revealed: Details Of How Nigeria Airforce Alpha Jet Was Shot Down And Captain Captured By Boko Haram

After the release of the latest video of the Boko haram sect, where the sect leader did not only denounce the claim by the Nigeria military that he has been killed, but also said it shot down the Nigeria Airforce Alpha Jet (NAF 466), more information has continued to emerged on the ill-fated Alpha jet.


Though the video also showed scenes of the wreckage of the Alpha jet and one of pilots beheaded, the Nigerian military denounce the content of the video, saying its plane was not shot down and that the man beheaded in the video is not its pilot.



However, someone in the know of what transpired has released last minute details how the jet crashed and how pilot maneuvered it to kill Boko Haram fighters knowing fully well that it was going to crash eventually.
Below is how the source, My Aye Dee (@MrAyeDee) puts it.


I just found out what I believe is the actual story of NAF 466 , the Alpha Jet that was shot down by Boko Haram.


A company of Nigerian soldiers was attempting to overrun a Boko Haram position in Borno, it seemed they radioed in for help and NAF 466 assisted with a strafing run.


Due to the low altitude, the plane suffered major damage from ground fire, once the pilots realized a crash was imminent, instead of being concerned for their own safety and parachuting within territory controlled by Nigeria, the brave pilots decided to make their final mission a suicide run and aimed the Alpha Jet at a mass of BH fighters who were assembled about a km (or so) away behind enemy lines.


In their final act of heroism, they waited till the last second before parachuting out, knowing that even if they made it out alive they would be captured and killed by enemy forces, but their sacrifice for Nigeria would ensure numerous Boko Haram fighters would also die in the process.


They were right on both counts. The plane slammed into a camp of hardened enemy fighters (not frontline conscripts), killing about 63 of them.


One of the pilots of that flight, Wing Commander Chimda Hedima is the one whose execution BH gleefully filmed. I know that with such courageous and selfless individuals in the Nigerian Armed Forces, #VictoryForNigeria is certain!?
