Belarus Officials are In Nigeria to receive the ProForce Armoured Personnel Carriers they recently ordered from the Nigerian manufacturer.

The Nigerian firm has a roll call of clients including the UN and nations on the African continent, such as the armies of Chad, Mali, Rwanda, South Sudan, Niger, and the Central African Republic.

Belarus is the first European client of the firm, it is believed, with a few other nations there likely keen to patronise Nigerian expertise in armoured personnel carrier and MRAP (Mine Resistant Ambush-Protected) technologies.

Overview

Proforce Limited is a defence solutions provider specialized in the manufacturing of Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs), Mine Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicles (MRAPs), Armoured Patrol Boats, Ballistic Helmets & Vests, Armoured Civilian Vehicles and Cash-In-Transit.

The Nigerian Army through its investment arm, Nigerian Army Welfare Limited by Guarantee NAWLG, acquired 15% shareholding of Proforce Limited.

Proforce is ISO 9001:2015 certified and has developed a large portfolio of products for the Police, Military and Civilian markets.


PROFORCE PRODUCTS

Proforce has developed a large portfolio of products for the Police, Military, Corporate Organizations and Civilian market.

Our PF2, an Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC), has been exported to Rwanda, Central African Republic and South Sudan. The Nigerian Police Force has inducted our APCs into their fleet of APCs.

Our latest monocoque MRAP is built to STANAG level 4569 standard. The MRAP named PF ARA was designed and manufactured in Nigeria and was unveiled by the Chief of Defence Staff in August, 2019 at the Nigerian Army Resource Centre. Proforce has an order to supply a huge amount of PF ARA MRAPs to the Nigerian and Chadian Army.



Our main Armoured Vehicle Manufacturing plant in Ode Remo has a capacity to produce 20 units per month of the PF ARA and 40 units per month of our PF-2. We have another manufacturing plant situated at Port Harcourt to supply orders from the South-South regions of Nigeria.


PROFORCE EXPANSION

Proforce acquired 100 hectares land along the Lagos-Ibadan express way for expansion of our Armoured Vehicle Manufacturing and other defence solutions. Our expansions include construction of the following facilities:

- Armoured Vehicle Manufacturing Plant
- Air Systems Manufacturing Plant for Drones
- Electronic Equipment Factory for the manufacturing of Land Mobile Radios and Jammers.
- Ammunition Production Factory
- State-of-the-Art Research and Development Centre
- State-of-the-Art training school
- A vehicle testing track
- A firing range
- Armoured glass manufacturing factory
- Staff Quarters
- Recreation Centres


BACKWARD INTEGRATION

The group acquired a steel rolling mill, few years back. This is expected to enhance more local content in terms of producing ballistic steel used for our armoured vehicles and to be self-dependent in armoured vehicle manufacturing. Our Steel Rolling Mill, known as Sun Metals, is located in Ota, Ogun State and has installed a production capacity of over 350,000 Metric Tons per annum. Production of ballistic steel will be the first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa and most of the products will be exported to countries within and outside Africa. Sun Metals Ltd. supplies aluminium ingots to Toyota for light skin vehicle manufacturing.

You are clearly a lunatic to be on a thread that shows the manufacturing of advanced APCs in Nigeria, and then spew the garbage you just did.

Effing dunce.

Good work

Buhari is performing wonders

ThankGodFriday:


You called me a lunatic because I told you the bitter truth.

Nigeria can't manufacturer bycicle let alone motor cycle.

Take it or leave it

School dropout.... Oya leave. Bye bye..

In case of what?

I wish they won't get the treatment Proforce gave the Nigerian military

Bad bele dats not a proforce vehicle.

Wonderful. So there is a parallel indigenous one to Innoson Vehicles.

Anyway, we will give you beautiful architectural and interior designs for your building project. Check out more of our designs on Nairaland via this link below:

Belarus is viewed as an ally of Russia in the Ukraine war by NATO and the West in general. Nigeria condemned the invasion of Ukraine at the last UN general assembly in February ignoring it's neutral status so I ask, what are the implications of selling military hardware to Belarus by Nigeria at this moment ? It's a good deal under different circumstances but seeing as we've taken a stand against Russia and these vehicles will definitely be used in Ukraine, Nigeria should be careful before international sanctions are slammed on us because we have no bargaining power

You are wrong that Nigeria has no bargaining power. Africa's biggest economy and oil and gas producer with numerous western multinationals based there is quite a bit of 'bargaining power'.

By the way, the orders were made before the conflict began, and were to a private Nigerian company under contract, so there's no issue at all.

lol

For Ukrainian war?
Don't go and get your country, banks involved etc sanctioned

Good news......

Selling our image to the world.

Beautiful.
Make them no go near INNOSON motors oo. Those ones na substandard Armoured Cars. They recently scattered while our Garlant Soldiers were on transit for an operation. Killing all the occupants.

Definitely.
Nigeria shall get there in our lifetime

What's the meaning of this Nonsense

This was Innoson products not proforce which shouldn't even have crossed your mind to post.

Enemy of the State

Very commendable.
If not for the leadership failures and sheer corruption bover the years,wherein government officials preferred budgeting for imports,where they can siphon funds,with our human intellectual manpower and sheer size,Nigeria should by now be a major producer of top notch arms and ammunition and the go-to supplier for African countries.
We should by now have been in the least like Turkey or Israel in terms of supply of military capabilities.
There was a time Nigeria was into ship building,now we should have upgraded to manufacturing of aircraft carriers and sophisticated gunboats.But here we are now not even able produce a speed boat!
There are many individual and small business Nigerian manufacturers of very good drones.Ideally these people should be contracted to go into production of military and technological drones.
But won't be surprised if down the years, Nigerian politicians and goverment officials go to places like Moldova to get lesser grade,basic drones,just so that they can inflate the contract and get estacodes for travelling to inspect them and maybe even just for the opportunity to dunk some white p issues.
