No amount of precision facility in this fighter jets can stop our air Force from bombing innocent citizens.

If PDP or Jonathan were still ruling this country the money for this would have been looted.

As usual, being a country were most of her citizens barely read, propaganda rules the wavelength! How would money meant for planes be looted when in the first place Obama refused to sell planes and even went as far as discouraging other countries from selling?

All in his bid to please his homosexual political constituency.

It is 5 years now, till date no corruption allegation has been proven but being the society that Nigeria is, any trash can pass for truth!

As the imam of peace said; " Nigeria deserves her stupid leaders because stupid people voted for them".

Am seeing the war against bokoharam ending soon
One step at a time
Before was heavy tanks
Now aircrafts

NA don't have excuse not to defeat bokoboys now

WORTHLESS deeds have become the norm

This administration's ineptitude knows no bounds. First why buy A29 super tucanos from the US? It would be cheaper to get it from Embraer in Brazil and without the nonmsense restrictions the americans place on exports - like you don't get support without supporting days.
Second, there are many better aircraft for the war against BH, especially helicopter gunships, drones, surveillance and communications. Even the nonsense about buying heavy tanks is rather stupid. Are you facing enemy with armour?
Third what is the survivability of this aircraft? Is it amoured against ground fire? does it need long runways and support facilities? Can it interface with drones and communications?
Even 1 or 2 AC 130s would make more impact.
Come to think of it, Obj bought Mi35 helicopters. Where are they?

I am not supporting Buhari's Govt because they are bunch of crooks, but I can also clearly see that some people following this thread are so ignorant. This is the best plane for Boko Haram fighting, utility plane, fuel conservative, can be a fighter and reconnaissance fighter.

I don't think Nigeria need F 22 to fight boko haram. US also use the aircraft to fight the taliban in Afghanistan.

Very true. You need a not too fast plane to fight a slow target eg infantry. While it's not worth it for air to air combat. Plus is relatively easier and less expensive to maintain unlike its jet counterpart

When an olodo allows hate to take front seat in his intelligence platform, even your brain sef go take shame abandon you.

You need a not too fast plane to fight a slow target eg infantry.
Imagine wasting 20liters of aviation fuel and you missed your target all because your plane was just too fast. While with Tucano you can use just about half of that if not less and still get your target.
While it's not worth it for air to air combat, it perfect for ground attack Plus it is relatively easier and less expensive to maintain unlike its jet counterpart.

Would you rather use a sledge hammer to kill a fly?

Owning an F22 Raptor or lomg short/ medium range missiles equates the propensity to use it. It serves as a deterrent.

However, we don't qualify to procure such due to certain reasons.

Nothing 'Super' about this toy in 2021. The world has long moved on.

A10 Warthog would've been more appropriate. Besides, these WW2-compliant machine is way too pricey for it's type and spec.

Such a rip-off!

I have never seen such gross ignorance on a thread such as this thread. For the bokoharam insurgency this place would do just fine. The A10 warthog would have been a better option than this but the USA doesn't export it to other outside countries.

Turbo propeller plane to be delivered in 2021. Nonsense and ingredients, even Rebel Biafrans retrofitted similar aircraft in 1968 and used it to bomb Nigeria Army targets. Always celebrating mediocrity. Chadian soldiers destroyed all Boko Haram bases in Chad without waiting Tucano or F35 jets.

This Tucano fraud was used to grant Buhari audience to meet Trump at the white house during which Trump called him Lifeless person
you are really in pain bro. Buhari already pass your father level. Nothing you can do. Sorry.....

I have never seen such gross ignorance on a thread such as this thread. For the bokoharam insurgency this small light fighter aircraft would do just fine. The A10 warthog would have been a better option than this but the USA doesn't export it to other outside countries. And moreover Bokoharam doesn't use SAM''s that requires the purchase of stealthy and more advanced aircrafts like the F35

Wow wow!... So much ignorance packed into one post, yet he actually starts his post by calling others inept. He even rubbished the acquisition of armoured tanks for ground battle,calling the military commanders at the battlefield stupid for going for tanks, Wow! Everybody is now a military expert in Nigeria, with deep knowlegde of ground and air combat; even more knowledgeable and experienced than serving military men at the theatre of battle.

...and then when one thinks it cant get more ridiculous, the fellow says 1 or 2 C130s would be more effective as attack aircrafts than tucanos; bros you deserve one cold bottle! grin
