Its now clear to me why successive govts fail to deliver. Very simple- the CRAB MENTALITY. Any govt out of power tries every means possible to make the govt in power to fail in order to gain cheap political points. But at the end of all this it is the masses the suffers poor governance while the politicians continue to enjoy. #OUR MUMU DON TAY. |

bigboss80s:Stop showing your ignorance in public just to get likes on Nairaland. "The weapons and ammunition include 100 GBU-12 (500 lb) Paveway II Tailkits; 100 GBU-58 (250 lb) Paveway II Tailkits; 400 Laser Guided Rockets including Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) rounds; 2000 MK-81 (250 lb) bombs; 5000 2.75 inch (70 mm) Hydra 70 unguided rockets; 1000 2.75 inch Hydra 70 unguided rockets (practice); and 20000 rounds of .50 calibre machinegun ammunition. The APKWS is a low cost semi-active laser guidance kit developed by BAE Systems, which is added to unguided 70 mm rockets, turning them into precision strike weapons. Similarly, the Paveway II, developed by Raytheon and Lockheed Martin, uses semi-active laser guidance to turn Mk 81 and Mk 82 general purpose bombs into guided weapons. The DSCA said the sale includes the tailkits to transform Nigeria’s existing 500-lb and 250-lb bomb bodies into GBU-12s and GBU-58s respectively, and that Nigeria is also buying additional GBU-58s/Mk 81 bombs. The proposed sale also includes seven AN/AAQ-22F electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) sensor and laser designator turrets, spares, support equipment, facilities infrastructure and hangar construction, night vision devices, simulators, and software." It's only in Nigeria that a fighter aircraft with precision kill weapons be called a toy. |

michoim:Don't mind them, Nigerians ignorantly support them. There's a clear difference from the 2 UAVs starting from the wing span, hours of operational endurance, payload, flight ceiling among others. Gulma was a prototype and Tsaigumi is an operational UAV |

Needless and pointless controversy as usual. GEJ commissioned a prototype UAV called GULMA. PMB commissioned an improved and operational version of GULMA called TSAIGUMI. 2 President's, 2 phases of the same project; one country, Nigeria. Did GEJ commission the first locally built UAV? Yes! Did PMB commission the first "operational" UAV? Yes! Will another President commission the planned Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle (UCAV)? Yes! These calls for celebration and not pointless brickbats. 1 Like 2 Shares |

Oh let me add that before GULMA, there were another series of prototypes called AMEBO. We have researches and prototypes going back all the way to 2007. http://www.defenceweb.co.za/mobilesite/defenceweb/home/item_id-33115/ |

teufelein: And the APC members in the air force lying on how the one GEJ commissioned was not working. With that statement alone, he ought to be arrested to had presented fake drone to the president to commissioned. The question is. How are we sure this same drone is working? They failed to tell us the components of this drone. |

Jolar101: Production of Nigerian Gulma UAV underway The NAF in 2014 under jona admitted that the rubbish their oga jona commissioned was just a non-deployable prototype. Btw, any reason why they should tell you the drone components? For what? Is this how drone manufacturers post their technical data, security and trade secrets on the internet? Were you also troubled that jona did not share with you the components of the ogbanje drone he commissioned? |

ocelot2006: Yes, he bought that trash from China and it crashed, just like the decommissioned and obsolete jets that cannot fight or even carry weapons he bought fro private collectors. We end up spending extra money to fight them with bomb racks just to be able to carry bombs |
Re: Buhari Commissions Air Force Drone Jonathan ‘Earlier Launched’ - PDP by ocelot2006(m): 9:10am On Feb 18, 2018 |
deomelllo: You call the CH-3A UCAV trash just because we experienced only ONE CRASH?? Jesus, you Buhari fans are unbelievably brain dead! And please what decommissioned jet did he buy from private collectors? Or are you referring to the additional Alpha Jets purchased as ATTRITION REPLACEMENTS? At least most of the weapons used today to fight Boko Haram were purchased by the GEJ administration, including a considerable ISR assets we presently have. Others include: Those new Main Battle Tanks (T-72M1, T-72OM) Those new MRAPs (CS/VP3 Bigfoot, REVA, RG-31 Nyalas, Streit Spartan MK1s & 2s) Those new attack helicopters (Mi-35M hinds, including those delivered under PMB's watch. Yeah, GEJ PAID for those) Those new Light Scout & Utility Helicopters (Army Corp Gazelles helicopters) The resuscitated Super Puma fleet Those new Multiple Rocket Launch Systems (MRLS) Those spanking new LCAVs Those new assault rifles (Tavor TAR 21, Tavor MTAR 21, Beryl Assault rifles, FN P90, FN FS2000, IWI Galil ACE, Pechenegs, etc) Those Marom Doplhine tactical vests The rescusutated C-130 Hercules fleet The upgrade of the F-7NI jet fleet to carry PGMs (precision guided munitions) Those new UCAVs (CH-3As) Those new ISR aircrafts Those new light assault vehicles (land cruisers, hilux) Those new Infantry Fighting Vehicles (BVP-1s) Those new Police Bell helicopters That police Public Land Mobile Network built by ZTE Abuja's surveillance network The nation's first data surveillance system And what has the PMB administration purchased for the military and security services? Let's see... 1) Ten Polish Scorpion vehicles for the NAF regiment when PROFORCE produces much better vehicles 2)6 Super Mushkat trainer aircraft for BASIC TRAINING..... BASIC TRAINING! 3).......Uhmm....Uhmm....dassol...I think.. BTW don't include the Super Embraer combat planes as the deal is almost dead in the water no thanks to the stringent rules of the USA. 1 Like |
