You see Buhari/APC would continue to fail It is because lying is in their blood!!!

The government of Goodluck Jonathan commissioned the 1st Nigerian made drone and was deployed in the fight against Boko Haram successfully, so which one is he commissioning as the 1st I recall that it was a kind of competition where the army built and armoured vehicle, the built a small combat/crew ship and the airforce built Nigeria's 1st drone!

They were deliberately quite on the on Jonathan's achievement of the 1st drone and refused to be humble enough to admit that his government built the 1st?!

At this rate. failure and rejection will never depart from them!!!

Buhari and APC have been re-commissioning projects and processes commissioned already and initiated by Jonathan.
Buhari and APC are a shameless bunch of corrupt hypocrites.

If this one drops in enemy territory, where is it going to find 300 meters for take off?

I think a lot still has to be done on its technique for takeoff

Only One?

I thought we were going to see a factory line with tens of finished products and robots (or humans) "manufacturing" new ones in the background.

Dont tell this is the only one the President of Nigeria went to commission

Not even a flying demo or NTA airing a documentary of its operations

Who knows if it's not just one borrow pose prototype.


He should visit the military farm these darlings are being made from and we should be seeing not one but a full farm of these techs and a demonstration.

Without all these, I suspect borrow pose prototype and an avenue for more billions of dollars to vanish....

Show us source which said the drones commissioned by GEJ is fake. All the sources you cited including BBC didn’t mention the drone once.

To even think you cited not one but 4 sources which didn’t mention the topic here is out right shameful, to put it in the most diplomatic term.

Buhari unveils Nigeria-made drone in Kaduna
By Maryam Ahmadu-Suka, Kaduna | Publish Date: Feb 15 2018


As part of the Federal Government efforts to tackle insecurity in the country, President Muhammadu Buhari has unveiled a surveillance Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) produced locally by the Nigerian Air Force Institute of Technology.



The UAC codenamed TSAIGUMI is the first Unmanned Aerial Vehicle to be produced in the country and will be used to fight terrorism, armed banditry and other sophisticated crimes through enhanced air surveillance.
The president also inspected 10 Super Mushshak aircraft recently procured by the Nigerian Air Force from Pakistan.
Buhari said, "The world is witnessing an ever increasing surge in the employment of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in military operations because, while standard air weapons such as missiles, fighters and bombers work against well-defined targets like conventional enemy forces or installations, they are not as useful in today’s complex wars that are fought against adversaries who are often hidden amongst innocent populations or in locations similarly sensitive or difficult to strike by normal conventional means.
"Unmanned Aerial Vehicle can loiter and maintain an ‘‘unblinking stare’’ over a chosen area for hours. Thanks to the ability to ‘‘watch and wait’’, its operator, often miles away, can provide a continuous stream of vital information on enemy activities and if the platform is weaponised, it patiently chooses the best moment to engage.
"Thus the employment of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle capabilities for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance and where possible, strike operations significantly increases the chances of success while minimising unwanted collateral damage.
"Government remains determined, despite numerous challenges to bring about the much-needed CHANGE that will lift our beloved nation to its rightful place as a major economic and political force on the world stage.
"From the military perspective, the added capacity for Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance provided by the TSAIGUMI will boost ongoing and future security operations. As this project moves into the next stage, which is mass production, it would create employment and possibly generate revenue as Nigeria’s first military export product.”
Earlier, Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar said, the desire to have battle space dominance and awareness has increased especially with the increasing complexity of contemporary security challenges and the moral burden that has been placed on professional Armed Forces to conduct military operations with precision and minimum collateral damage.
He said, that was why the need for capacity development in the area of UAVs and other scientific and technological innovations has been foremost in his mind since he assumed the leadership of the Air Force.
"I therefore consider research and development as a fundamental enabler of capacity building, hence ‘strategic partnerships with MDAs for enhanced research and development’ features as one of the key drivers of my vision. what we are doing in the NAF in terms of promotion of R&grin is in line with the STI policy.
The CAS however highlighted some of the physical and performance parameters of the TSAIGUMI including wing span of 5.16 metres and a maximum take-off mass of 95kg, Electro-Optic/Infra-Red (EO/IR) camera system while its engine runs on a 50:1 MOGAS/Oil mixture.
"It requires only 300 metres of runway for operation, with a mission range of 100km, a service ceiling at 15,000 feet and operational endurance of about 10 hours. The performance parameters and operational characteristics, would make this platform a critical component of NAF ISR architecture. Consequently, the UAV would be mass produced and employed in theatres of operations across the country," the CAS added.
this most be an Igbo man ideology

GEJ commissioned Gulma which was a prototype. This is an improved version of Gulma check the specs and see the difference.

The first US drones did not carry hell fire missiles, they also started with a small UAV.
