Proforce manufactured the Vehicle and it is Proforce product

Stop ranting Innoson, Proforce is the best for Armour vehicles
Whatever rocks your boat. As long as it is made in Nigeria.

I chose innoson because they have advantage of scale.
Innoson can produce 100 vehicles quicker than proforce. And the army also believes that given their frequent visits to Nnewi.

Though there is nothing that stops everybody from working together.

When it comes to tanks manufacturing, it would require both manufacturing and armouring.

So both parties would be needed.

All they did was award massive contracts to import military hardware, but loot the funds and saddle us with used and falling apart Tokunbo military hardware.

The Nigerian Army formally commissioned into service a range of new indigenously designed and manufactured vehicles during its annual celebration day at the Ikeja Military Cantonment in Lagos state on 6 July.

Several types produced by the Nigerian Army Vehicle Manufacturing Company (NAVMC) were unveiled, including a new version of the Infantry Patrol Vehicle (IPV) featuring a larger frame, bigger wheels, and more space for personnel while still carrying a heavy machine gun in an overhead weapon station.

A Tactical Patrol Vehicle was also presented, which appears to be a high-mobility platform. It features room for up to eight personnel and can be armed with a heavy machine gun in an overhead weapon station.

An armoured personnel carrier designated as the Light Tactical Vehicle, which was first presented in an incomplete form during a firepower demonstration in April, was also exhibited. The vehicle appeared to be far less crude than its previous iteration, featuring a two-piece windscreen and an enclosed protected weapon station.

The latest version of the Proforce Ara mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicle, known as the Ara 2 was also unveiled during the event.

While an initial batch of five Ara 2s was delivered to the Nigerian Army in March, no images were released at the time as the Army did not want to advertise the vehicle and its capabilities, a Nigerian industry source told Jane’s .

The Ara 2 is very different from earlier designs and features a fully monocoque hull, all-round STANAG Level 3 armouring with STANAG Level 4a on the floor for increased protection against mines and improvised explosive devices.

As part of the Nigerian Army Day Celebration, a second batch of five Ara 2 MRAPs was handed over to the Nigerian Army, bringing the total number of this variant in service to 13 as three had been handed over a few weeks earlier, the same industry source added.

Have you seen the Video of where Soldiers complained about Innoson Vehicles?

It is not about Quantity but Quality

Proforce specialize in Armour vehicles and they are the best

INNOSON is only good for ordinary Cars and vehicles, even at that ordinary cars and vehicles people still doubt the quality of their cars

I'm a soldier bt guys don't mind them, all na scam. With our military generals scam, we've been banned by UN from fighting along other country in Sudan cos the money given to our generals to purchased standard weapons and vehs were embezzled by them, they only painted the old weapons and 1970s armour vehs bt were later exposed. For this reason, we've been stopped in participating in UN which is the main operation where we soldiers earn our dollars and ball like G-boys. I'm seriously pained. cry

We need to mass produce, we need to invest in the form of billions in loans or grants to ProForce, Innoson, and others to scale up by building a large military complex to produce everything from armored trucks to bullets, rockets, missiles, guns, drones and so on.

We need money and leadership will.

Waiting for the president to walk his talk by using a Nigerian made/assembled car like they used to do in the 1980s with Peugeots mostly.
